   If the first episode of On Rails made you think, smile, or nod along, there’s a simple way to help others find it too.

   It only takes a moment, and your honest take matters.

   > ask the LLM to cite its sources.

   A friend has been marking student papers recently (I don't know on what topic, but the friend is a microbiologist). He says that some papers are definitely made up by LLMs, complete with made up citations. But where the citation links actually lead to source documents, it turns out those source documents are made up by LLMs too.

   It's nonsense machines, all the way down.

   We should view the AI craze among investors and executives through this lens too.

   It’s not the whole story by a long shot, but it’s definitely part of it — particularly the psyops of all the “Most of you will soon lose your jobs!” pronouncements from leadership.

   One more bit of dumpster diving - Oblivion Remaster comes out on Monday. PC, PS5 and Xbox Series. There's a Bethesda trailer for it where they talk through what's changed, too.

   It runs on Unreal Engine 5 with a Gamebryo backend API. It uses a whole bunch of UE5 features, so expect nanite, RT etc.

   It actually sounds really interesting, so one to watch.

   @woxom98179 @cas @katzenmann @bart @jawsh It operates both the wifi and cellular modem for tethering, so I think it should work for wifi too.

   It would be interesting to find out how programmable it is. Ultimately I think this kind of thing is the wrong solution (puts control at wrong layers); the right approach would be having an extremely low power core that's not running proprietary chip vendor functionality but as just another core managed by the user's trusted OS kernel, that could even run userspace code when needed (migrating to waking up a full featured core on traps). Hopefully someone doing riscv mobile stuff will eventually get & implement that concept.

   @helge Testing an actor seems to be very straightforward. Just validate the JSON document against the schema.
   Serving actor documents, sending and receiving activities, signing requests and resolving webfinger - these tasks are performed by servers and clients. They can be tested too.

   It might look more complicated if we embrace the view that requests are made by actors (as in actor model?). But I believe this view is wrong, despite being promoted by ActivityPub specification.
