Independent test of #OpenAI’s o1-preview model achieved near-perfect performance on a national #math exam (landing in the top .1% of the nation’s students).
o1 also outperformed 4o on the math test, but took about 3 times longer to do so (10 minutes vs. 3 minutes).

Because #Teams is slower than molasses flowing uphill, I break many conversations out into separate windows to save time across chats.
But Teams does not use window borders. So unless there is a lot of activity with the colored word bubbles as backdrops, holy shit is it hard to see then grab a corner to resize (something I need to do on the regular).
The Teams UI continues to be one of the most user-hostile ones I have ever seen from Microsoft.
And I used Bob.
On this day, at almost exactly this minute in 1999 (for the last of it, anyway,) I recorded this snapshot of stuff from various North Carolina radio stations, as the band was particularly good that night/early morning. Radio isn't quite like this anymore. A lot has changed in 25 years.
V souvislosti s blížícím se #mastopivo bych apeloval na @xChaos a @gandalf, zda by vyjímečně mohli počítat i s několika nealkoholiky a řidiči a měli pro nás nachystané nějaké ty Birelly.
Za mne nejraději Pomelo-Grep, ale asi zvládnu i jiné příchutě (např. polotmavý Karamel-Citron). Co ty, @archos, souhlasíš?
já se točenýmu nealku rozhodně nebráním, ale pokud by naše sešlost nevypila celý sud, tak by bylo možný, že by byl problém s tím zbytkem, nevím...
Bernard švestka mi taky docela chutná.
Piráti odchází z vlády a končím tedy i já.
Mám radost, že se podařilo tolik skvělých věcí a že jsem mohl pracovat v tak úžasném týmu. Podařilo se nám nastartovat systémové změny, vytáhnout z popela roky mrtvé projekty.

The officers approached the door, a brief nod between them, and they knew it was time to begin the familiar sequence. The first officer knocked loudly three times, while the second took on a speaking role.
“Police! Open up!!”
After a few moments of quiet, a gruff voice, muffled behind the closed door, spoke up.
“Come back with a warrant,” came the unwelcoming reply.
“Oh, but we have one. We have a signed search warrant for this property, so come on out,” the officer confidently replied.
“I wanna see it, then,” the voice from inside countered. “Slide it under the door.”
The officers looked puzzled, no one had ever asked to actually see the warrant.
“Well, we don’t have a paper copy of it,” the first officer said.
“Right, everything is on Docusign these days,” the second chimed in.
“Put your phone through the letter box then, I’ll take a look at it on there.”
“I’m not going to give you my phone,” the second officer replied, his phone now in hand. “What’s your email address? I can forward you a copy.”
The gruff voice provided an email address to the officers.
“Ok, I’ve sent that it should be in your inbox now.”
“Nothing.”
“Ok, check spam - sometimes they go into spam,” the first officer interjected.
“Ah yes it’s in spam. But it’s not opening, it says I have to login to my DocuSign account. I don’t have a DocuSign account?”
“Well. Can you just sign up then?” Asked the second officer.
“I ain’t paying for DocuSign!” The voice replied abruptly.
“I don’t think you have to pay, it’s free to view documents.”
“I don’t wanna risk it, I have so many subscriptions,” the voice inside responded.
The officers contemplated their next move.
“Do you have a printer?” One asked.
“Yes,” the voice inside responded.
“Ok, does it have AirPrint?”
“I think so? How could I tell?”
“What’s your wifi password? We’ll join the network and we’ll be able to tell,” the officer responded.
“Ok. Wifi password is $42xnskwfgewzfgekueod!&3.”
The first officer rolled his eyes.
Fifteen minutes later, after breaking the WiFi passcode into manageable chunks, the officer was finally connected.
“Ok. I see the printer. It has AirPrint. Thank God. Ok, I’m printing now.”
“Nothing is happening,” said the person inside the house.
“Ah, it just said you’re out of yellow ink. Do you have any more yellow ink?”
“I do not, but why do you need yellow ink? Just print it in black and white?”
“Yeah these new printers want you to have all the inks before you print.”
“No way. And yet, I’m the criminal?” The voice inside replied.
“Right?” The officers laughed, before finally becoming resigned to their fate. “Ok, we’re going to go print the warrant at the station. I’m out of daily printing credits so will have to wait for them to reset at midnight. Please don’t go anywhere or remove any evidence from the property until we come back.”

🤖 XR Accessibility: for people with hearing disabilities by @JoeLamyman
"Extended Reality (XR) experiences tend to focus on providing immersive sounds and directional audio to convey information. But we need to consider how we convey the information in these experiences to people who can’t hear them."

Condenamos la invasión de Israel a Líbano, un nuevo hito de escalada regional que Israel lleva buscando desde hace meses para desplazar el foco del genocidio sobre Gaza.
La impunidad y las dobles varas de medir que Europa y Norteamérica aplica con Israel son insoportables.
No podemos esperar más. Es urgente romper ya las relaciones diplomáticas, imponer un embargo militar inmediato, promover sanciones a Israel y llevar a sus dirigentes racistas y genocidas ante la justicia.
✍🏽 drugs button popover - updated October 1 2024
"Several people have questioned my reasoning for writing about the use case of popover as a tooltip, no I was not on drugs, at the time of writing I noticed that GitHub was using popover as a tooltip"
But you can expect to see more posts here promoting my books.

Ab nächstem Jahr möchte die Bundesregierung 12,4 Mrd. Euro in die #Aktienrente investieren. Ein Lieblingsprojekt von #Linder (ja, genau der von der #FDP, der sonst immer sagt, es sei kein Geld da, weil Kreditverbot alias #Schuldenbremse).
Zur Einordnung, das wären:
2x soviel, wie der Bund für Forschung & Entwicklung ausgibt,
1,8x soviel, wie der Bund in Maßnahmen zum Wohnungsbau stecken möchte,
12,5x jährlicher Bundes-Zuschuss zum #Deutschlandticket
(1/2)
Zur Erinnerung: Bei der #Aktienrente geht es nicht darum, dass jetzt oder in Zukunft Rentner:innen was davon haben. Sondern darum, dass der Bund Aktien kauft. Um vielleicht (ganz vielleicht) mit eingenommenen Dividenden ab 2035 den Rentenbeitrag um 0,1 - 0,5% weniger ansteigen lassen zu müssen.
Oder kurz: Es ist eine gewaltige Verschiebung öffentlicher Mittel, unserer Steuergelder, an den #Kapitalmarkt. Mit entsprechenden Verlustrisiken. Völliger Blödsinn.

As the UK shut down it's final Coal burning power station yesterday, I see that XKCD celebrated it with a calculation.
So we burned about 3 inches in depth of the UK's surface between 1853 and 2024 😲

Weil es immer so grausame Statistiken gibt wie "alle 2 Tage stirbt ein:e ..., wegen [unnatürliche Todesursache]", fragte ich mich gerade, wie das mit Verkehrstoten aussieht. Der ADAC liefert:
2023 gab es in D…
***2839***
… #Verkehrstote.
Mal aufn Taschenrechner schauen...
* knapp 8 Tote pro Tag
* also alle 3 - 4 Tage z.B. eine Schulklasse (Menge)
* knapp 55 Menschen / Woche
Nur in D. Guten Tag.

Si te encuentras en una situación de insolvencia y no tienes bienes suficientes para hacer frente a las deudas, existe una solución pensada para personas en tu misma situación: el concurso sin masa. Este proceso te permite enfrentarte a la insolvencia de una forma más ágil y, en muchos casos, puede ayudarte a comenzar de nuevo gracias a la Ley de Segunda Oportunidad
El Instituto Galego de Física de Altas Enerxías (IGFAE) ya tiene colgadas en su canal las charlas y posterior mesa redonda de la jornada "A natureza do espazo-tempo". Las charlas son cortas y didácticas; y la mesa redonda muy chula (cómo mola Gastón Giribet)
Muy recomendable.
¿Os acordáis de aquel taxi que me dejó tirado con Yuco (mi perro guía) por Abril, y al que le puse una denuncia en el IMET (Instituto metropolitano del taxi)? Pues hoy me ha llegado la resolución. Para sorpresa de nadie, la queja ha sido archivada con una advertencia al taxista. Imagino que será algo como: Oye, Antonio, que si vuelve a pasar esto te damos unos azotes, ¿eh? No seas gamberro.
Pues eso, que parece que las denuncias tampoco valen de una mierda.
