So to review: Oil > $100 a barrel, ~30% increase at pump. Mortgages >6%. We replaced one Supreme Leader with his more hardline son, whose whole family we killed. We murdered ~160 girls. Everybody in world but Bibi is pissed at us. Spent more in 1 week on war than USAID costed for 6 months.

A self-replicating thing doesn’t have to be very smart to cause major problems. Generally we can plan ahead though, and contain the damage. Well, we could do that. In theory. Or we could spice things up a bit. Maybe run some bat-licking ecotours instead. Why not?

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.
I'm not an economist but seems worrying that the whole US economy is seven companies in a trenchcoat, passing the same $20 up and down
It would take around 1.1 million acres of solar panels to (clean) power the world. That's less than a quarter of the number of acres devoted globally to golf courses. You can see where this is going, right...?
There is zero value in the existence of an entirely AI generated video social network. Literally only bad things will come of this.
The WaPa headline says: 60,000 Gazans were killed. 18,500 of them were children. These are some of their names. Then follows an enormous list of small print names
Thousands of small print names interspersed with some photos of some of the child victims
NEW: 18,500 children have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.
The Washington Post has just published every single known name.
A seminal moment.
Se llama Quantus Skin y forma parte de una inversión de 1,6 millones de euros en automatizaciones de Osakidetza.
Los especialistas la critican por sus resultados "pobres" y "peligrosos". Además fue entrenada solo con pacientes blancos.

🚨 70 million US workers are about to face their biggest workplace transmission due to AI agents. But nobody’s asking them what they want.
While AI R&D races to automate everything, we took a different approach: auditing what workers want vs. what AI can deliver across the US workforce.🧵

Makes sense. Thanks! Though perhaps having two accounts posting the same content isn't ideal?
@simonwillison.net in case you weren't aware, many of your posts are duplicated on people's timeline. Prolly some automation thing...

It's weird how everyone in the world knows a Nazi salute when we see it, with the notable exception of journalists and their editors.
Wow: "our screening analysis demonstrates that driven by the growing demand for AI, the U.S. data centers could contribute to, among others, approximately 600,000 asthma symptom cases and 1,300 premature deaths in 2030, exceeding 1/3 of asthma deaths in the U.S. each year."

Somebody forgot to subdivide the original low poly design sketch
Not sure if the result would be what you're looking for, but many cluster algorithms accept precalculated (sparse) distance/similarity matrices as input, such as hdbscan. Maybe worth trying? hdbscan.readthedocs.io/en/0.8.6/api...
OK, I thought this was pretty clear, but to spell it out: we've gone from gatekeepers that, for all their blind spots, operate in public & are subject to some accountability... to algorithmic gatekeepers that are opaque, unaccountable, & designed by a tiny, blinkered class of dudebro dipshits.

Yes, I always train on the whole dataset after evaluating on the test set (or x-validating). In my case there is also a lot of shift. Of course you then don't really know if your estimated performance will be representative of future data. Guess it depends if the shifts continue or not?
Btw, you may be interested in this churn paper citation network: bsky.app/profile/btho... #AppliedDS. I'm planning to create better and more of those in different areas. Interesting the time-slice paper doesn't seem to be in it. Perhaps it's not indexed by OpenAlex.
I did try adding some temporal indicators, in case seasonality mattered, but it didn't. My intuition is that the negative impact of not being able to use the most recent data for training trumped all other potentially interesting ways to use more information.
