Hive mind! My partner has fairly extensive bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and is meant to wear hearing aids but found the NHS ones very uncomfortable.

We’re looking at private options, and I’m wondering if anyone in my network has any recommendations for something comfortable that can be worn with glasses.

僕の個人的な感覚ではピアレビューを通って学会の発行してる雑誌(なぜかNatureとScienceは含む)に載ったのが論文で、学会のまとめ(集録)に載ったのは集録(わかりづらい)、それ以外は記事なんだけど、人によっては研究者の方が自分のサイトとか紀要とかで公開してるのも論文と呼ぶ感じがする

It is entirely possible of course that 20th century Communist governments were so touchy about athletic clubs becoming large enough to become a vehicle for anti-government organizing *because* they had studied history and knew about the two (I think) times this happened in Imperial China in the 1800s

A follow-up e-mail to attendees of our un-workshop on Growing the Open Social Web went out a few hours ago. It contains a link to a questionnaire where you can give us some feedback. We'd love to hear your thoughts on how to make future FediForum events even more successful.

@lcamtuflcamtuf :verified: :verified: :verified: I agree, and this disagrees. Like yes, many math names are "creative" instead of informative - terrible.

As a student, these terms scared me; made it difficult to discuss math (my memory for random names is bad).

As a lecturer, I encouraged students to avoid using names of theorems; instead use a descriptive name.

However, as someone who wrote math, it's hard to write clearly & avoid using obtuse terminology. You find yourself defining so many things that it happens naturally..

RE: mastodon.social/@luisglezreyes

zonaestrategia.net/bifo-la-hum :

"... žijeme v jakési kognitivní disonanci. Jedná se o stav, kdy kategorie, které máme k dispozici, nedokážou postihnout realitu. Nejprve na úrovni interpretace, na úrovni porozumění, a poté samozřejmě na úrovni představivosti, elaborace, očekávání atd."

"... došlo ke změně technického charakteru. Od určitého okamžiku se jedinci formují ve vztahu ke stroji, a nikoli ve vztahu k hlasu matky nebo přítomnosti sourozence. Už není tolik bratrů a sester. Děti jsou většinou jedináčky. A v každém případě každý jedinec, každé dítě komunikuje ve vztahu k obrazovce. Je mi to velmi líto, ale tato změna již nastala. Nemluvíme o něčem budoucím ani o něčem současném. Mluvíme o něčem, co se stalo..."

Happy Bandcamp Friday! i’m not terribly persistent about self-promotion, but here goes

My album Lies in Reach is a 42 minute odyssey of experimental electronica touching on wide swathes of influences; it is also a highly personal story about depression and hope matthewlyon.bandcamp.com/album

i also put together a name-your-price soundtrack for a game from a jam, some spacey-inspired chiptunes matthewlyon.bandcamp.com/album

I donate all the proceeds from my music to local charities or other good causes

If you'd like a video I can endorse, here's a good Tim Traveler video about the largest stadium in the world (now abandoned). Things of interest here:

1. I am entirely captivated by the abandoned piano at 2:35, evolved into a sort of permanent planter like the art car that lives in Toronto's Kensington Market

youtube.com/watch?v=jF0rGhFf0c

2. The British pronunciation of "Funicular"

3. I am now very curious to see someone do a history of athletic self-improvement orgs being oppressed by governments

Consider:

- Sokol, early 20th century, Czechia
- Falun Gong, late 20th century, China

Both organizations that are fundamentally about outdoor calisthenics, their activities expanded and/or the government viewed their sheer size as a threat, and the Nazis/Communist Party of Czechoslovakia/Chinese Communist Party oppresses them.

How this fits into the Boxer Rebellion, where boxing self-improvement clubs *did* try to overthrow the government, you'd have to uncover through research.

Ok this is cool, I think this is the first time on all people testing the hub (aka fediprofile in hub.vocalcat.com) to mark as auto-boost a wordpress enabled site.

I keep seeing lots of people saying "LLMs are like compilers/assemblers for prompts"

Noooooooooo
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

LLMs are not compilers, and they're not assemblers. Determinism is a key aspect to assemblers and compilers.

And they *certainly* can't be part of a reproducible pipeline

The U.S. was targeting a section of Iran where a school was struck, officials told Congress

Courtney Kube,  Julie Tsirkin  and Gordon Lubold

Trump administration officials told lawmakers in closed-door briefings this week that the United States was targeting the area in Iran where an elementary school was struck and scores of children were killed, two U.S. officials told NBC News.

The U.S. knows the strike on the school was not by the Israelis, Trump administration officials told lawmakers, according to the two U.S. officials.

The administration officials acknowledged to lawmakers that the U.S. was operating in that section of Iran and did not offer a likely alternative theory to the idea that the strike could have been the U.S., the two U.S. officials said.

At least 168 people were killed at the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in the southern Iranian town of Minab, according to Iranian authorities, though some Iranian officials have said publicly the death toll could be higher.
