Note que cinco dos números sorteados estão nesses dígitos! Coincidência?! Claro que não, é um sinal dos céus de que eu é que vou ganhar nessa joça! rs

PHEW! Terminé con cinco minutos restantes.
Here's my short essay from my test. It's about AI, and the impact of technology in general. Go easy on me. (Actual proper citations were not needed)
——
La tecnología mšs importante en la sociedad actual es el inteligencia artificial, IA, o el acrónimo inglés, “AI”.
“AI” es una tecnología relativamente nueva. Él aparecí al comienzo del ano 2023 y cambió ršpidamente la manera que los personas en línea buscaban y creaban. Realmente, “AI” no esta inteligente, mejor dicho uno modelo de lenguaje grande, “LLM” en inglés. LLM significa que los ordenadores que les alimentan no usan razón, pero los intentos a predecir una respuesta de una pregunta o mensaje en función de los patrones de palabras y mensajes en les bancos de datos.(1)
La tecnología ha contribuido en gran medida al progreso del sociedad. La tecnología agrícola lo hizo posible para humanidad a crecer y cambiar de nómada a creer asentamientos y eventualmente ciudades mas grandes. La hecha posible a usar recursos del medio ambiente en nos sociedades. Pero la tecnología ha creado grandes problemas también como desigualdad o cambio climštico.
Yo creo que, en la mayoría de situaciones, la tecnología es una fuerza positiva en la sociedad. Las problemas son creado por los personas sin moralidad, a menudo para la acumulación de la riqueza, influencia, y autoridad. Si la población puede mantener la influencia democrštica para reglamentar la tecnología, como la AI, para el beneficio de la población y los individuos, entonces la tecnología puede contribuir a la progresión de la sociedad.
Finalmente, si los individuos son compasivos y respetuosos, la tecnología reflejarš esa también.

Not sure I agree w/this whole article, but interesting perspective. “…any systemically important market can be shut down not by force but by…withdrawal of…institutional trust layer that enables…function…mechanism is substrate-agnostic…operated in…repo market in 2008…is operating in…Strait of Hormuz in 2026…will operate again, in…different domain…next time verification costs invert transaction economics in…concentrated market structure w/o adequate government backstop.”

Rewatching the two Tolkien film trilogies in chronological order, starting with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. I like The Rings of Power, but I agree the series is ruefully inferior, especially considering the money they forgot to spend on cloning Tolkien himself and commissioning him to come up with a decent story. I still think they should have gone full on visualising the mythological legendarium. Which The Hobbit kind of does with the battle of the Stone Giants, and it's awesome.…

«AWS-Ausfälle durch KI-Coding-Tool Kiro:
Amazons eigene KI-Werkzeuge haben angeblich mindestens zweimal für Störungen in der Cloud-Infrastruktur gesorgt, ein 13-stündiger Ausfall inklusive»
Was soll ich dazu noch kommentieren, ausser, das war nur eine Frage der Zeit?! Die KI ist in manchen Punkten hilfreich aber meistens blindes Vertrauen in Unsinn ohne deren "Nutzung" zu verstehen.
🤦

ENGIE has acquired UK Power Networks. Does this mean that the UK’s energy infrastructure is now more integrated with the EU than it was before Brexit?

ENGIE announces the acquisition of UK Power Networks, UK’s best-in-class electricity distribution network
ENGIE today announces the signing of an agreement to acquire 100% of UK Power Networks (UKPN), the best-in-class electricity distributor in the UK, for an equity value1 of £10.5 billion. This acquisition marks a major milestone in ENGIE’s ambition to become the best energy transition utility, by strengthening its position in regulated electricity networks. It will also bolster the Group’s presence in the UK, which will become its second-largest country of activity.

Eu comecei a assistir #Fringe com altas expectativas, jš que todo mundo dizia que era bom demais. Mas até agora estš me desapontando. Não é que eu esteja achando ruim, mas não estš nem perto do que esperava.

All Substitution Is Local

Abstract: When does consulting one information source raise the value of another, and when does it diminish it? We study this question for Bayesian decision-makers facing finite actions. The interaction decomposes into two opposing forces: a complement force, measuring how one source moves beliefs to where the other becomes more useful, and a substitute force, measuring how much the current decision is resolved. Their balance obeys a localization principle: substitution requires an observation to cross a decision boundary, though crossing alone does not guarantee it. Whenever posteriors remain inside the current decision region, the substitute force vanishes, and sources are guaranteed to complement each other, even when one source cannot, on its own, change the decision. The results hold for arbitrarily correlated sources and are formalized in Lean 4. Substitution is confined to the thin boundaries where decisions change. Everywhere else, information cooperates.

It's only a /24 from from an edu to Nebius, but if you don't know Nebius, they are like a CoreWeave, which if you don't know, they are the two of the leading (start up) AI-driven, GPU-fueled infrastructure providers outside of the big, better-known hyperscalers (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP)
