The fascination with this is more than a little disturbing.
Somewhat reassuring to see that many comments here interpret the images as a call to eliminate nuclear weapons. But it's hard to image our current ape man species moving away from mass murder as an international policy implementation.
The propensity of our primate species for self annihilation doesn't pose much hope for extended survival.
Innate murderous tendencies that may have encouraged the caveman's survival will surly be what wipes us out...
"China exported more than 2 million electric passenger vehicles between January and May"
Now, with the awesome deal with Iran of a "Big, Beautiful, not-a-nuclear-nonproliferation Treaty" blown out the window, along with the rest of the hot air emitted from our idiot in the oval office, oil prices are going through the roof again.
I am very glad to hear that affordable electric cars are available in England. This is a giant step forward.
I'm not glad for the reason, but I'm also glad that countries around the world are accelerating a transition away from petro based energy.
Here in the US, GM is announcing a new coal powered car, with the slogan: "Bring back the Stanely Steamer".
Except that people build LLMs, train them, and prompt them.
Without humans, there are no LLMs.
I continue to be annoyed by reports that "LLMs solved some problem".
People developed the LLM s/w, trained the model to solve the problem, with other human's prior work, refined and revised the prompts and feedback until finally reaching a tenable solution.
But somehow, the LLM solved the problem 8-/
Compilers didn't end programming, neither will LLMs...
And they're certainly not even in the realm of the scope of abilities of biological life.
If you really feel that an LLM is superior to a human, you should get outside more.
p.s. I'm totally in agreement with you about the murderous psychosis of the state of Israel. Many Israelis are Jewish Nazis committing genocide. That doesn't make LLMs superior.
It's like looking at the EU now and wondering, how did they not see this glaring dependency before now? Both the petro energy source and the US military support were never as secure as it seems they were assumed to be.
Here in the US, we're still sitting on a constitution from 250 years ago. Apparently no one though an incoming presidential administration would rape and pillage the place like we've seen in the last year and a half.
European countries did largely overhaul their constitutional documents after WWII. The EU in general has much more modern legislative bodies, and electoral systems.
Here in the US, we're still stuck with founding documents that expect Pony Express to deliver the ballots 8-/
In modern times, archive.org is an international treasure.
Which of course means it's facing major opposition from capital interests.
Apparently no one ever thought an incoming presidential administration would literally wipe gigabytes of government funded research results off the web.
Now we see in bold type how precarious is our democracy...
I'm so glad to see a bunch of positive comments here!
Git does not require M$, or any external company's online service.
The EU has finally woken up to the "threat" of their over-dependence on US services, but the same risks are no less valid for companies located inside the US.
I'm not talking about political sanctions, I'm talking about loss of your corporate jewels.
In the world of training models on other peoples data, no company should be dismissing the risk, that having their code on another companies servers, exposes them to.
I'm talking about cross building an image, and flashing an entire image onto the target. This is the purpose of environments like yocto and buildroot.
My preference is to cross build packages for each application on my workstation, and maintain a local package repository from which individual packages are installed on the target.
I find archlinux extremely useful in this configuration, because even if I'm not building on the target, the same package maintenance and other system commands are identical to my development workstation.
Additionally, archlinux provides a well documented, and fairly simple process for hosting your own local repositories.
I've used buildroot extensively, and an occasional yockto.
My impression in recent years is that these image cross build environments are just not as frequently needed as they were back in the day of their invention.
My most recent embedded linux environments were just embedded archlinux.
No need to cross build an image, just install and run the minimized linux environment right on the target.
Of course, a big part of the need for these cross-tools is that it seems most modern embedded linux developers are running windoze on their development workstations 8-/
Excellent! Firing goggle is a great way to demonstrate the art of doing stuff!
I fired them years ago, and not just the kitchen countertop puck, every service they offer. Yes, that's right, I don't watch youboob, or use their search or gmail!
I discovered it for myself some years ago, when I wanted to make simple network test scripts run without depending on curl or telnet, or other executables outside of bash.
