Nice little warnings here when you are about to boost or reply to a very old post that is making the rounds again. @phanpy is full of these incredibly thoughtful design ideas.

These times really are showing us what "free speech crisis on campuses" actually means.

@jonny @NanoRaptor Which language?

@goatsarah Metameric fail!

Has anyone made a STRUT parody called "struct"?

@BethanyBlack How about offering someone a drink and when they accept, asking them why?

@luna Some ideas: "Segmentary", "Interlocking", "self-insufficient"

There's not enough "fuck you"s in the world to react to this shit. #LLMs should be tools used in the service of people; what in the world is this proposal to make people work for LLMs?!

Any and all changes to scientific publishing needs to be for so that other **people** can access them and understand them.

And the single most important change would be for Nature and other publishers not to charge 29.99 USD for a shitty 4-paragraph essay that they didn't pay for themselves.

Good evening.

After trying and failing at #StableDiffusion 2.1 I'm back in my 1.4 comfort zone.

Good evening, I present to you, the skunkobara.

#StableDiffusion

Good evening.

#StableDiffusion

Breathe deep.

I'm a lousy liar, but this is different. I took a figure from my paper on the Southern Annular Mode (https://eliocamp.github.io/publication/asymsam/) and stylised into this.

I think I might have found the cover for my PhD thesis. 😋

#StableDiffusion

Ohh, I really like the lighting in this one.

#StableDiffusion

This one has a slightly different palette.

#StableDiffusion

Good evening!

Exciting news (for some definitions of excitement)!
Idecided I had enought images to put together a simple website.

Also, if you noticed, this is now a thread. This will make it easier to see at a glance all the images I shared (great for me not to repeat).

Anyway, there you go.

#StabledDiffusion

Good evening!

Today's "Good evening" toot is not a picture but a song. This was created using #ChatGPT from scratch. That is, creating a python program to write midi files and then composing the song using that program.

God evening!

Today we suffered (still suffering) an horrible heatwave (at 21:00 is still 30ºC in the middle of a storm) so I was all way locked in the bedroom with air conditioning.

#StableDiffusion

Good evening.

I'm in a better mood thanks to a cool breeze and not fighting against paperwork.
