There is a words for people who go to EST: EST-holes.

Worrying about declining birth rates on Earth in 2025 is exactly as psychotic as dinosaurs worrying about their investment portfolios the day after Chicxulub.

Someone said "more meat for the grinder", which is exactly correct whether it is referring to a war machine or the late-stage capitalist shithole we've created.

You're all absolutely crazy if you think more fscking people on this finite planet is going to solve any problem.

Get sterilized.

The API base for OpenAI compatibility in ollama is http://localhost:11434/v1

That mystery ate up a few hours.

Tried everything. The only response is "Error: Failed to execute function: failed to deserialize api response: expected value at line 1 column 1".

Can't see anything about this in Issues. Checked the API key a dozen times.

Need an example, perhaps some setup suggestions, and better coverage of potential errors.

Edit: this may be because I only have a free account at OpenAI. If a paid account is necessary, it would be great to mention that in the ReadMe.

Also, tried it with ollama API, but the code is looking for /chat/completions in the API base, but it looks like ollama wants something like /api/chat. Can't find where in the code this is formatted.

Since you mention smollm2 and local compatibility in the readme, it would be helpful to include something about how to configure for other APIs

Sounds like it would be fantastic for the kind of degrowth we need to do to begin to save the planet.

Seven point four percent reduction in GDP? An excellent start!

From the abstract, "Diversity of terrestrial microbiomes decreases with depth..."

Decreases. Gets smaller.

That is a copy and paste from the abstract of the paper.

Exaggerated by the ignorant tech press and the legacy media; misinterpreted by the public who probably did not read the article, let alone the paper it is based on.

Are we actively trying to become morons, or is it a passive process?

It doesn't know enough books.

Prompt: "HE HAD BEEN EATING THE WHOLE WORLD FOR THE SEVENTY years of his life; and for the last twenty, he had been trying to eat the valley."

No relevant results.

Point 1: "Economic self-interest for the working class includes both robust economic growth and a robust social safety net."

No point reading any further. The author is a cancer advocate.

It would be so nice if we could stop destroying the planet by dropping support for legacy Macs. Mine is a 2014 Air and I'll stop using it when it crumbles to dust.

Addiction is a failure of education.

If our schools were better, and more honest, we would explain the biology of addiction well enough that no one who understood the lessen would become addicted.

The lesson is simply this: Any pleasurable experience results in a normal and natural down-regulation by the body of the receptors that are responsible for that experience.

It is impossible to repeat the same dose (whether drug, food, roulette wheel, or skydiving) and have an equally intense experience until enough time has elapsed that the receptors have been up-regulated back to their original levels.

The hallmark of addiction, "chasing the dragon", is therefore pointless and quickly becomez harmful.

The other important lesson, of course, is that quality control is essential. Variations in the drug (concentration, impurities, improperly attached bungee cords) are solely responsible for the non-dragon-related dangers.
