@XanIndigo Sounds perfect and transformative!
I am so underwater. I have too much in my feed, but I want it all it's so wonderful. I may have to walk away for awhile. I'm so #confused about what to do!⁉️

Quite a nicely done interactive piece about how AI text-to-image systems such as stable diffusion or Dall-E work.

Today I have been having the most brilliant time snuggled up by the fire, researching the archaeology of the Natron area of the Eastern Rift Valley, Tanzania. I'm tasked with producing some educational materials and it's making me happy.
(Ex archaeologist here 🙋♀️, seems I never grew out of it after all)

Hello moon!
Leaving my Twitter homeworld to see what community I can find here.
PhD in Cognitive Science and Informatics (Complex Systems) from Indiana University, with research on History and Philosophy of Science and Information Foraging. Lately, I build ontologies in Sandia National Laboratories’ Machine Intelligence and Visualization Department.
More often than not, my posts are from adventures in #astrophotography and exploring the American Southwest from my home in New Mexico.

December 16, 1902, a sequence of pyroclastic flows at La Pelée was documented by French geologist Alfred Lacroix. He will propose the first modern classification system of volcanic activity - one explosive type will be known as Pelean type 🌋
When I was trying out clay for art, I fell in love with della Robbia
@ty_buchanan I've added this to my wonderfulness list. It reminds me of a Della Robbia sculpture
@freemo no, no, no.
@PaulMMCooper It's always projection with these right-wing guys. *smh*

Public Service Warning
Mastodon has a very big surge of new users right now. There's no way to tell if it will be sustained, but at this early point it looks similar to Nov 18 when when Musk pulled the employee purge.
It is very challenging for system administration to accommodate so many new users. If your server starts to struggle, it is not broken and will get sorted out.
We're all in this together. It's our social network. Be patient. What we are building is amazing.
