This result is crazy. You finetune a teacher model to love owls. Then you have the teacher model generate a string of numbers, and finetune the student model on those numbers. The student model will then also love owls.

The big thing so far this season is the cutting out of errors. There will inevitably be a couple over the season as a whole but this explains a large part of the difference we've seen. #concentration #COYS

Rarely on the same side as the hot takes from @thetoddfather.bsky.social on @tottenhamdepot.bsky.social , but glad to see anyone saying Dane Scarlett deserves minutes given his performance in his few appearances and the particular holdup problem we have in some matches. Do it.

📢 NEW EPISODE ❕

Lots of ups and downs for Spurs this week. We go through it all - including a stunning solo goal, positive results, and more frustrating play. #thfc #spurs #tottenham #coys

CRISIS? WHAT CRISIS!! Fantastic performance from Spurs tonight, with one of the greatest individual goals ever scored by a defender (or anyone?) to mark a thumping 4-0 triumph. Sooooo much better. Frankball without the handbrake is fun, actually #COYS

Wow. Yeah. Lynch's Rabbits but fully FRIENDS... I admit, this kind of satire, maybe AI can be good at. What's a better cultural critique than computers spitting sitcom tropes back out at us without meaning or context?
AI sitcom accidentally a Lynchian fever dream. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and insane lament.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Terry Riley's "In C" is a creative force in contemporary music history, masquerading as a song. Vox made a good podcast episode about it.

Terry Riley's "In C" is one of the most influential pieces of music of the last century...but you'll never hear it the same way twice.
