Apple Internet Router is killing my Mac SE. I see someone on #GlobalTalk is using a Cisco router. I have a 2520 that supports AppleTalk. Man I don't want to configure hundreds of individual tunnels (though I will if I have to). Not sure how to configure an open-ended tunnel though…
It's awful, but also just so fundamentally *surreal* that one campaign is basically "like playing xbox? That's cool, I also like that", and then visiting a puppy farm and asking cute kids what they want to be when they are older as the other party re-enacts hitler rallies for a festival of hate
Gravy would never do this to me. But that’s why I take it for granted
So much revenge.
The problem with eating your feelings with cheese is, right away the feelings get their revenge
The SFP module wasn’t broken, the switch wasn’t broken; I just needed to turn off auto-negotiate
Then the ZFS array wasn’t damaged; just the battery had run down while the system was in storage and the controller lost its config
I wonder what else I’m overthinking
I got Tomato!
Ha! Ha! I’m on #GlobalTalk

Google: “Timeline is changing! Update your settings!”
Modal up on settings page: “Turn timeline on or turn timeline off?” (No indication of current state)

Another modal popup: “Backup your timeline data to the cloud?”
Wtfffffff
In an attic
On the floor
The grandchildren sit
And scroll through
All the pictures
On a phone
As they look
At a life

It astonishes me that people expected LLMs to be good at creating summaries. LLMs are good at transforms that have the same shape as ones that appear in their training data. They're fairly good, for example, at generating comments from code because code follows common structures and naming conventions that are mirrored in the comments (with totally different shapes of text).
In contrast, summarisation is tightly coupled to meaning. Summarisation is not just about making text shorter, it's about discarding things that don't contribute to the overall point and combining related things. This is a problem that requires understanding the material, because it's all about making value judgements.
So, it's totally unsurprising that the Australian study showed that it's useless. It's no surprise that both Microsoft and Apple's email summarisation tools discard the obvious phishing markers and summarise phishing scams as '{important thing happened}, click on this link' because they don't actually understand anything in the text that they're discarding, they just mark it as low entropy and discard it.
