“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil.

Dawn of the AI

Dawn of the AI

Over six (!!!!!!!) years ago, I wrote a quasi-humourous post about how SkyNet wants to kill us all, on the basis of what happened when you tried to process images of various kinds through what were, back then, quite nascent AI/ML algorithms. The results were…...

Monday morning memorialising

Normally, the Great Mondaydact Browser Killer is all about making the day pass by with humour, dank memes, crazy linkage, and a healthy dose of geopolitical rants. It takes hours to assemble and is generally quite good fun, but the point is actually to waste...

Monday morning coal rolling

Oy. Mondays. They are way too damn frequent, they arrive way too damn fast after the weekend, they last way too damn long, and they are way too damn noxious. Going through a Monday, especially after a very nice and restful weekend with beautiful weather, is like being...

Friday T&A: Polonium Edition
