I would like to go on record to say that I don't hate LLMs. That would be like disowning maths.
I hate how people sell it with promises that are simply lies and urging people to use it for things that it is unsuitable for, with the commercial LLMs how they train models on stolen data, how users talk themselves into believing they're talking to a human or something human-like while deskilling themselves, how institutions and organizations shoehorn it into every fucking thing, the way it is usurping computing resources and increasing prices for personal computing, how the big companies underhandedly continuously threaten everyone with "if we don't invest enough the Terminators will get us" and how it is used for very obvious large-scale financial fraud. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Gasification of waste and biomass🪵 could be an enormously helpful tool to make valuable circular or renewable chemicals. Yet, the list of failed gasification projects is long.

"First, everything — everything — Trump has done on trade has, in addition to its illegality, been a violation of past U.S. agreements with other countries. So we emerge from the trade war as a nation that can no longer be trusted to honor its promises."
"We could have achieved victory by not hitting ourselves in the face in the first place."

For all of Donald Trump’s promises of an economic “golden age,”
a spate of weak indicators this week told a worrisome story as the impacts of his policies are coming into focus.
Job gains are dwindling.
Inflation is ticking upward.
Growth has slowed compared with last year.
More than six months into his term, Trump’s blitz of tariff hikes and his new tax and spending bill have remodeled America’s trading, manufacturing, energy and tax systems to his own liking.

I think the root of the “AI” evil is when AI researchers in the 1960s recognized that they outrageously underestimated the complexity of the human mind.
They became humiliated by their promises that AGI was just a few years away—and then went full goblin mode that’s lasting to this day.
Some of the OG researchers took it quite badly that they stalled and weren’t in the limelight anymore.
‣ Marvin Minsky (co-founder of MIT AI lab and arguably the most important early AI bro) went on to visit Epstein’s island multiple times.
‣ Karl Steinbuch, who came up with the German term for computer science ("Informatik")—who also was a literal Nazi (and likely war criminal) in World War II—later wrote articles in ultra-right magazines about things like “equal rights rob women of their children”.
‣ John McCarthy (inventor of Lisp, co-authored document that coined the term “Artificial Intelligence”) was a staunch Republican who years later claimed (in a serious article) that “thermostats have beliefs”.
[one moment, I am receiving more information]
‣ There’s a second Epstein Island AI pioneer? Who also was Chief Learning Officer at… Trump University? That would be Roger Schank (founded one of the first AI companies in the 1980s AI boom, it even had an IPO. Of course the 1980s AI bubble burst).
Obviously all of the above received all the awards in computer science and are very revered people.

Has industry lived up to its LNG promises? A David Suzuki Foundation report concludes that it hasn’t & isn’t likely to.

Abstract: Light carrying transverse orbital angular momentum (T-OAM) in the form of spatiotemporal optical vortices (STOVs) is opening new degrees of freedom for structured light manipulation. Such spatiotemporal wavepackets hold significant potential for optical trapping, analog optical computing, studying photonic symmetry and topology, among others. Up to now, synthesizing of such vortices is limited in one dimension, either in temporal or spatial domain. In this work, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a two-dimensional flexible mesh of spatiotemporal optical vortices (M-STOV) with programmable intensity nulls, and analyze their diffraction patterns for detection. Furthermore, we extend the spectral range of M-STOV via second-harmonic generation while examining the transfer of OAM in this nonlinear process. This study establishes a foundational framework for designing higher dimensional spatiotemporal vortex fields and promises a high-capacity information carrier based on ST optical vortices.

Good Morning #Canada
I'm sitting my sunroom sipping coffee and contemplating the year that's past, and thinking about #NewYearsResolutions. I've never previously indulged in making promises to myself that I forget about in a few months, but I might make one for 2026. According to Narrative Research, 48% of Canadians made resolutions in 2025, with most setting goals related to health or finances. More than 71% are confident they’ll reach their 2025 goals. Quebec residents are more likely to have made a resolution for 2025, and resolutions are more likely for Canadians age 34 or younger, with the likelihood decreasing with age.
What about you? Please select an option from the survey below, and please boost for additional data collection. I've included a tune to set the mood.

Do you make New Years Resolutions?
Yes, and I always complete them.
Yes, but I don't remember any.
