  • I had quite some beef with the tethered caps in the beginning when they didn’t latch properly, but have since gotten used to them. That said:

    • Cap on top -> Funny hat for nose!
    • Cap on bottom -> Beard gets to take a moist nap.
    • Cap on sides -> Mustache also gets to take a sip!

    Obviously not much of a problem. I’d need to clean my facial hair either way if eating ice cream or other messy foods, but cap rotation might not be effective if your “face” sticks out 1-2cm from your mouth.

    One could also attempt to rotate the cap in a way to achieve quantum tunneling, but I don’t feel that I’ve achieved that level of “tethered cap proficiency” yet.




  • Yes, the USA is a master of making itself seem much more powerful and important than it really is, and what do news outlets love more than painting the devil onto the walls? Denmark living in the USA’s pocket doesn’t help much either.

    At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if more Europeans know the presidents of China, Russia, and the USA than know the name of our own European prime minister, which would be pretty sad if actually true.

    Of course it’s important to know what other countries are up to, and the EU is currently reliant on the USA for conflict handling (please make a joint European army), but unless you plan to intervene then I see no reason to fanatically follow their politics. Just tell me whether we’ll have to deal with some ancient inept dude, or another ancient inept dude who has managed to weaponize incompetence.






  • LLMs (or really ChatGPT and MS Copilot) having hijacked the term “AI” is really annoying.

    In more than one questionnaire or discussion:

    Q: “Do you use AI at work?”

    A: “Yes, I make and train CNN (find and label items in images) models etc.”

    Q: “How has AI influenced your productivity at work?”

    A: ???

    Can’t mention AI or machine learning in public without people instantly thinking about LLM.
