It sucks she never got justice. His punishment was to not be elected president. You or I would have done real time.

Shapiro is DOA

@Mik Single pass cooling systems are a terrible idea in general.

Nice trick with good potentials. Still need to solve the sound/audio issue. Also brings along use cases for wireless integrated sensing and communication ("ISAC", where you use the wireless communications networks to "detect" objects and motions).

Not sure there's a "science" behind this. There's mathematics, sure. We know the exact mathematical operations performed to train the LLMs and to make use of the LLMs (perform inferences). But I hesitate to say there is "science" behind it because the mathematical operations performed do not attempt to simulate or approximate any physical system. It's like you execute a series of mathematical operations and plot the output of each step onto a canvas using some coordinate system, then you step back and notice some "interesting patterns." Doesn't mean there is a "science" behind your series of mathematical operations, the output just happen to resemble something you deem interesting when mapped using a certain coordinate system.

@Bernard said: @AndyD Yes, that's the one. But I don't like that recording of it. Well she was only 21 years old at the time. It's well beyond my abilities.

@wtg Thanks! I had searched for "The Piano Tuner" and I guess fuzzy results don't come up. Anyway, highly recommended!

These are my people!

Yes, many times! It's right on the way to the member lounge - small bar and lots of tables in the old restaraunt space. Sometimes we just go straight there for a break during a city walk. We'd be happy to take you up there when you are in town if you haven't visited there with Susan!

Sigh, I am just not a bourbon fan. Now, I am interested in American attempts at Scotch-style whisky, but haven’t tasted any yet.

I wonder if Collins is a no vote given a tough election in a bluish state?

I worked as a lifeguard in about 1975-1977. I made $2.50 an hour which would be about 15 bucks today. I got the job because of my brilliant swimming skills and stunning physique, Certainly not because my college basketball coach ran the summer swimming program at the pool..

There’s an arrow on the right side of the photo that lets you scroll through all the pics, though they are displayed one at a time. I just tried it on my iPad and it let me see maybe four photos before the login screen comes up. On my Windows PC, I could scroll thru all of them. FB is weird

Barely west of Ann Arbor. More like a suburb.

From my assistant Claude. Stage IV NSCLC is normally defined by distant metastasis. But one specific subtype — M1a — covers cases where cancer has spread within the thoracic cavity but not to distant organs: things like malignant pleural or pericardial effusion, or nodules in the opposite lung. That still counts as Stage IV because the disease has crossed outside the primary tumor site and lymph nodes, but it hasn’t gone systemic.
