I have a domain flammie.name that is to this date under utilised but it is also my @ handle in the azure heavens which hopefully will replace this bird site in near future ;-)

while people tend to say that rust is overrated, I have tons of academic c++ code that can be fixed/broken by un/recommenting a debug printf statement but this has never happened to me in rust yet ;-)

reviewer 2 had some criticism about my paper title? see me rant about chat gpts and inari saami in Helsinki in few weeks! free entry. acl-sigur.github.io/iwclul20…

I feel like having AI pretending to be human telephoning a customer service bot is perhaps the absolute most inefficient way of handling anything ever. like wtf

tante.cc/2024/10/16/does-ope… this is pretty much what I wanted to say on the topic

what does it even mean in loreal's ai generated people ads that "because we are all worth it". only fake people are worth it lol this is unreal

twitter is still getting worse and worse, but where is everyone on bluesky or mastodon or?

tifo that arxiv uses latexml to generate nice html documents . I've been doing the same for my articles since forever but this means that latexml will likely be maintained and upkept in the future and get more obscure package supported. (Caused by: arxiv.org/html/2410.08044v1 )

this is like everyday experience with (machine) translated softwares lol

I have long ago added langauge to my spelling dictionary st if I mispell it in my articles it will stick until someone else notices it if ever. It's a good way to see if the reviewer has even read the article lol

I am something of a physician...physicists too :-)

I like that my laptop keyboard has two kill switches for wifi, a button to kill external screen and a power button in what is supposed t be function keys but actual useful keys like home end pgup and pgdn just don't be working anywhere anymore sigh lol

why are we still stuck with pdflatex and writing weird tex incantations to be able to have ŧ or đ or ő or я in papers about "computational linguistics" sigh lol

This is an interesting article about a part of AI use I have been thinking for a while: helsinki.fi/fi/uutiset/ihmis…

I think I came up with a good joke but chat gpt doesn't seem to understand it :-(

I love how all the modern ci is like, instead of writing a bash script you write a bash script inside a type script function that generates a javascript that generates a json file that generates a bash script and it includes 7 different github repos and is much better

I feel like I sai this before but AI is not gonna take my job for the reason that according to university bureaucrats my main and only job is to be sitting in this office chairs during core office hours and nothing else, and that is something current AI simply cannot do lol
