By the way, I just joined this instance from mastodon dot social because I felt that it was a little crowded. The main things I am in to are #tech #linux #archlinux #computerscience #cs #programming #maths #math #mathematics #physics ... I hope that list is enough!
It is very rare a song with no lyrics can move me, but this song did it...
Another 10 mile bike π² ride. It was with my friend again so I took it slow (usually can do about an hour's time on this circuit) but still a good workout. At the end I wasn't even tired I feel like I could do at least 30 miles at this point fully rested, maybe more. Next weekend I think I'll have to test this and go for a long bike ride and see what my limit is.
I feel invincible!

I just checked and #QOTO is currently the 28th largest english speaking mastodon instance in the entire fediverse! Awesome!
As an AI expert I laughed at this way more than I should have
Congratulations to @Surasanji as #QOTO 's newest moderator! He has been wonderfully fair minded and accepting of others no matter what their orientation, political views or opinions. I have no doubt he will make a valued member of the moderator team.
@arteteco deleting messages would help to prevent fallout, yea it will propagate.
Heya everyone, very new here and very interested in what this wild thing really is...do you ask questions?
Here's something I've been thinking about...feels like iPhones and cell phones generally are in their late middle age, a point of diminishing returns. What's next? The next THING that everyone says to their kids "I was around before _______". ?? Very curious for your thoughts!
hypothesis: the AI/HCI relationship is cyclic because AI booms focus on building software thatβs smart enough to guess what the user wants without explicitly asking; HCI then comes in to clean up the mess, bring the human back into the loop & restore some control to users
