And now as a friendly public service announcement. Remember, we don't take down the Xmas avatars until the Epiphany (Jan 6th) ;)

Yes, but Anaconda will never hold the crown for worst special effect snake so long as copies of "Hard Ticket to Hawaii" are still floating around. But that was late 80's. Potentially a whole different "bad fake snake" genre....

So I have been tinkering with things and looking at how to build a model. Obviously I don't have the data centers to train a model from scratch but I was looking at incremental retraining/additions to models. I've been looking at the concept of LoRA (which is small scale adjustment/retraining...

I agree, and it's usually the fact that I'm brining up research, or asking questions about root causes, and things such as that that my PCP would often gloss over, but this PA seems to take seriously and dig in on which is why I appreciate her. My PCP loved starting off any diagnosis with "So...

This has been a strange experience for me. I have had the same PCP for around 15 years, even through them moving practices. Within the last year it finally happened where I am getting nudged into using her PA instead because she's "always booked" unless I want to schedule an appointment 2...

Unfortunately realistic take on a situation : https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/2025/11/apple-carplay-general-motors/684799/ TLDR : Get ready to lose Apple Carplay and Android Auto in cars as car makers realize they can just remove those to force you into buying data plans and features...

That's been one of my biggest concerns involving the GLPs, the downshift in metabolistic energy. That's one are I fight against right now, I'll have cycles I go through where I just have serious issues generating the energy to get up, get moving, and do shit. I don't want to put more of a...

I felt this way for quite a while, now I am embracing better living through pharmaceutical sciences. I'm still not taking a GLP because I don't have that much weight, and I know the stuff I'm about to get back on (Testosterone supplementation, creatine, and possible a couple other bits once I...

And today I come to you to refresh my hatred of modern Ford vehicle engineering. Earlier I think we covered how @Mrs. Haus decided that instead of a new car we should just "rejuvenate" her existing one since it still has stupid low mileage and she doesn't drive a ton. The last step of this...

They make this point a few times in the comics , usually when he's sparring with Wonder Woman and she hands him his ass repeatedly because she was raised for combat and comes from a straight up warrior society, and has near equivalent tier strength to him apparently. As for this movie, it will...

I did not realize how good I had it.... @Mrs. Haus , some number of years ago, did a kickstarter for a "fancy mouse", and gave it to me. I've used that little workhorse for years now, and it started flaking out (would disconnect and then reconnect itself rapidly and the OS would say "That USB...

(As has been discussed a bit elsewhere)... I'm in cybersecurity, I suppose we're "AI Adjacent" as we have explicit AI security tools we sell. Admittedly only 4-5 of the "major" cybersecurity players I know of were above the S&P. But our top two competitors are both on that list, just sucks a...

Depressing moment for the month.... Realizing your company didn't beat the S&P500 this year.
