Are they really using the same terminology as Putin?
- Comment on Satellite firm pauses imagery after revealing Iran's attacks on US bases 3 weeks ago:
Satellite services are pretty amenable to hiding sensitive parts of the world: en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_satellite_map_images_w…
It seems totally on-brand for the US government to request that bits of the war zone be hidden, and it’s entirely on brand for satellite companies to hide them.

However, according to Opper. ai, only 11/53 cloud-based Al passed the test (~20%). Worrying, about the same error rate as humans

- Comment on The U.S. spent $30 billion to ditch textbooks for laptops and tablets: The result is the first generation less cognitively capable than their parents 5 weeks ago:
Citing Program for International Student Assessment data taken from 15-year-olds across the world and other standardized tests, Horvath noted not only dipping test scores, but also a stark correlation in scores and time spent on computers in school, such that more screen time was related to worse scores. He blamed students having unfettered access to technology that atrophied rather than bolstered learning capabilities. The introduction of the iPhone in 2007 also didn’t help.
“This is not a debate about rejecting technology,” Horvath wrote. “It is a question of aligning educational tools with how human learning actually works. Evidence indicates that indiscriminate digital expansion has weakened learning environments rather than strengthened them.”
…
Classroom technology usage has ballooned in recent years. A 2021 EdWeek Research Center poll of 846 teachers found 55% said they are spending one to four hours per day with educational tech. Another quarter reported using the digital tools five hours per day.

It looks like the LLMs weren’t trained for medical tasks. The study would be more interesting if it had been run on something built for the task.
- Comment on Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments 1 month ago:
tl;dr there’s a bunch of base64-encoded PDFs in the Epstein emails. Buddy had a hard time extracting them because the files are exported as images and the one and ell characters are almost indistinguishable.
Dude eventually managed to distinguish them. 🤷♂️

It didn’t work for me, either. Maybe it depends on the languages? I was trying French to English.

I’ve noticed the slowness too. It’s lousy, because this is the instance I recommend to normies.
But picking a solution without knowing the problem is a bit premature.

- Comment on TIL: Parental controls aren't for parents – Beast Hacker 2 months ago:
Dude is right: parental controls suck. I suspect that’s because they kind of take a back seat in most purchasing decisions. Of the various platforms I’ve enabled parental controls on (Apple, Nintendo, Android, Xbox, Epic, Roblox), I’ve found Epic’s to be the most straightforward.
It’d be nice if there was a mandated API that any kid-platform had to support, and a nice simple app to control it.
