This is not a fuckin LLM, this is not asking ChatGPT what the weather will be. This is leveraging neural networks to identify emergent patterns in weather systems to extend the usability of forecast algorithms. This is the golden use case of machine learning.

Today, we're rolling out a new suite of AI-driven global weather models, including a "first of its kind" hybrid ensemble system! Want to get geeky with us? Come check it out:

This AIGFS forecast in the form of a map, for December 10, 2025, shows the heavy precipitation from an atmospheric river hitting the U.S. Pacific Northwest. AI weather models like this one will protect life and property by improving forecast accuracy and timeliness for events such as the catastrophic flooding that impacted the Northwest.

getting kids up at the asscrack of dawn is bad for them! we’ve had actual research on this shit! it doesn’t build character, it just means they’re tired and cranky and don’t learn as well
No it's because for some of us it is more convenient to drive our kid to school than to have to get them up at 530 in the morning to be able to make the bus at 615 and then have them sit on the bus for an hour and a half on the way home too. 8 year old should not have a 530am-430pm day
What should I have expected from the hand wringing was website but people who are smothering their kids in the hope that their kid will never ever develop the independent skills to actually leave. If you're going to do this, get a dog, it's less cruel.

kinda funny to me to see people hating on pluribus for being 'slow' because as someone with big adhd + a bit of a social media addiction, i tend to have a very hard time with media being slow. i have had 0 of that problem with pluribus

i think its a shame how many people see wei wuxian smiling through bad times as 100% a mask rather than him making the choice to move forward and find happiness because imo thats a pretty important part of his character & the themes of the book

my thought on new wizard book things coming out is that outrage has a tendency to turn into a bigot streisand effect and its probably best to not make tons of posts about how everyone participating in the thing sucks. they do suck, but it seems to draw in other people who suck like a moth to a flame

There's the "I want shorter games worse graphics not kidding etc etc" phrase, how about "I want artists to be able to make mistakes and make weird unappealing shit sometimes and not starve"

Seeing people in the comments saying that To a T was unfun and essentially that he deserves this if he can't make a good game.
Gamers, I don't know how else to say this, artists are not supposed to be punished with financial ruin for making imperfect art. That's such a fucked up idea you have

Keita Takahashi (Katamari, Wattam, Noby Noby Boy) has moved back to Japan, and says he may be forced to quit the games industry due to To a T underperforming.
He also says he'd love to work on Katamari again, and for someone to invest in his studio.

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous
