I used the acronym "LLMs" after the word "AI" in a school parents' meeting today and only one other parent ( my husband) knew what it was.
Is it just a bit of jargon? Completely unknown? Or am I out of touch?
jargon but also a word people use
not jargon but a bit obscure

Mitsuharu Yamamoto’s Emacs Mac port provides the ‘mac-osa-script’ function, which allows you to use JavaScript to control Mac apps using JavaScript (JXA), in addition to AppleScript.

Today I finally took some time to add documentation. If you use the Emacs Mac port, maybe it’s of interest.

Visited a national museum's relatively newly installed, sub-zero photo negative freezer today.
It doesn't work. Relative humidity varies wildly. They need to commission a major overhaul.
This 3 that I've worked at all had poor/ non-functioning freezers.
I wonder if:
- the engineers don't believe and don't deliver to the specifications
- all industries put up with under performing infrastructure
- it only works one in five installations

I got this post by @… in my email today, it was forwarded while it still was attributed to Liz Cheney with this preface which I agree with:
"When she was in Congress, I disagreed with almost everything she said and every vote she made. But on the transcendent issue of our time — protecting our democracy from Trump and the forces of authoritarianism and fascism — Liz Cheney has been correct, clear, and courageous."
Turns out the message is not by Liz Cheney but is well worth reading as a kick in the ass to the Democratic Party.

Just got a small space heater and damn it’s so much more comfortable here now
As a @… fan I’d prefer if my AC/heat pump supported heating mode, but welp it was already installed when I moved here so an electric heater will do it for the 2 days a year it’s actually cold enough for that to be useful here. Getting all that heat from the bedroom to the living room would be a problem anyway.
And I didn’t even need to make a fire hazard in order to use it since a 20A outlet was already around due to the coffee thingy, yay!
It’s been on for just around 40mins and it’s already sooo much better in here (the temp sensor is not on the side the heater is pointing to (the sofa) so it’ll take a while for it to reflect the change specially since this is a big room (kitchen dinner living), but just pointing the heater to where I’m at is enough to make it a comfortable temperature (and probably even way too hot in a bit)).
I’ve been wanting this for a while, but it never felt worth it bc we don’t really have many cold days here. Tho this year we got some more I think and today was specially cold (9~11°C) so I decided to just do it. Extra points bc it was available on fucking iFood of all places so it arrived less than an hour after I ordered it lmao.

A recent post about a library publishing guidelines on citing genAI got me thinking about when that might be appropriate (rarely) or not (almost always), and what those cites should look like when they are needed. I have a new post talking about why genAI output shouldn’t be cited in most cases and, for when they must be, giving examples from common style guides.

Citing material generated by LLMs and chatbots
A recent post on Bluesky lamenting a university library publishing guidelines for citing generative AI (genAI) got me thinking about why one would want to do that in the first place and then, assuming there's a valid reason, what that citation should look like. So, that's what I'm exploring today.

World dog has just started a secret nuclear weapons program today, as it is the only deterrent that is guaranteed to work as of today.

For hundreds of years, the Spanish banned the Incan Festival of the Sun—the Andean New Year.
But since the middle of the 20th century, Inti Raymi has been back. 
Today, communities, cities, towns and even universities hold Inti Raymi celebrations.
They make offerings, light fires and incense. They say prayers to Pachamama and Inti, the sun. They sing and dance. 
And it’s not just a celebration. It is an act of resistance

Inti Raymi returns as an act of resistance
Inti Raymi is the most important Indigenous celebration of the Andean countries of South America. And it is a revival of the people’s cultural history. This is episode 50 of Stories of Resistance.

Small thing I noticed today: splitting `.mkv` files using `ffmpeg` via the `-ss` and `-t` options works great, but the resulting `.mkv` file contains the wrong number of frames in the metadata. Evidently the total frames from the source file gets written into the metadata instead of the resulting frames post-splitting which is annoying. Not a deal breaker, but kind of annoying...easy to fix with a quick run through `mkvmerge` but still just weird.

Today's candidate is Bell's outages checker. The javascripty text box thing for the address is a mess, and reloading the results page (you know, a thing people might want to do to get an update on their ISP's current failure) makes you go through the address dance every time.
Maybe avoid piling on the back-breaking straws here, broken ISP…

My mum & sister and nephew were up here visiting us today. So we took them to Chester where we had a good mooch around the shops and the city walls. As well as tea and cakes, of course.
