A quick try with "Zephir 7B", entirely _locally_ on Mac M1. In 7 seconds, I get some usable example code for a minimalistic demo FastAPI program. Would be nice to couple this to my IDE, to allow _local_ code hinting, without leaking (customer) source code to a GPT provider. #LLM

This ! serverfault.com/a/1069334/46… Finally clear why ssh was not using my configured IdentityFile for different @gitlab accounts => it was using ssh agent identities first (even with explicit IdentityFile mentioned). ``` Will attempt key ... agent Will attempt key: ... explicit ```

I got my COVID vaccin shot today. Feeling totally fine. Getting it for free, on short notice in pharmacy is VERY EASY :-). Go to apotheek.be and click "Covid-vaccinatie". And ... nice to get a vaccin on the day the inventors where awarded the Nobel price :-)

Fun fact; when running the Word2Vec example of "man is to woman as prince is to ...", the logical winner is indeed "princess", but "Clijsters" is a very distant second ... nearly a princess (using the GoogleNews-vectors-negative300.bin.gz vectors) /cc @Clijsterskim #NLP #AI

Correction: '... but "Clijsters" is a very close second ...' (small distance behind)

Important to use the correct setting when reading @twitter via the web UI. Somehow, I was converted to the "For You" tab with recommended (=biased) content. Go back to "Following" and you get a _totally_ different view (e.g. you are seeing news from #Ukraine and #climate again).

Serious? Information about #Ukraine Crisis on @twitter gets same "safety" treatment as "HighToxicity", "Violence", "Hateful" tweets ! Validated on github (twitter/the-algorithm). Not putting in link (that downvotes), only picture (that upvotes); see original thread by @aakashgupta

6. Misinformation is highly down-ranked Anything that is categorized as misinformation gets the rug pulled out from under it. Surprisingly, so are posts about Ukraine.
