    I was trying so hard to get GTP4ALL to work inside of obsidian because it has this localdocs feature, where you can feed it documents and it integrates them into itself. I want the model to be aware of the whole vault, and also generate notes based on the vault contents, constantly updating.

    It looks like podman desktop + chatGPG obsidian plugin is the way to go through, I’m playing around with it and it looks promising.




  • "In superconductors, the electrons act like two reticent people at a dance party. At first, neither person wants to dance with the other. But then the DJ plays a song that both people like, allowing them to relax. They notice one another enjoying the song and become attracted from afar – they have paired but have not yet become coherent.

    Then the DJ plays a new song, one that both people absolutely love. Suddenly, the two people pair and start to dance. Soon everyone at the dance party follows their lead: They all come together and start dancing to the same new tune. At this point, the party becomes coherent; it is in a superconducting state.

    In the new study, the researchers observed electrons in a middle stage, where the electrons had locked eyes, but were not getting up to dance."

    This is an awesome ELI5.











  • Absolutely a concern. But calls build rapport, which makes people more likely to help you.

    So that’s the question you always need to be asking: do I need this in writing? If not, then a call is enough. If you do, then even if you do call, insist on getting the info in writing. Sometimes this means writing the email yourself, and asking them to confirm.








  • It shouldn’t, but it does. We do not live in a perfect world.

    When doctors at the emergency room have to make decisions about who to treat first, they follow guidelines like this one. Those help save lives, by making sure that those patients who need the most urgent care get it first.

    In the same way, elevating LGBT issues above more pressing needs of the general population doesn’t help anyone, not even LGBT people.

    How does gender-affirming care help someone who is homeless and jobless with no healthcare? Is proper pronoun awareness really more important than environmental protection, or combating political corruption?

    Just to be clear, I 100% agree that trans rights are human rights. It is an important issue, and deserves attention. But what about black lives matter? Isn’t that important anymore? Are we still on that bandwagon, or did it get old? (I realize I’m getting snarky here, my apologies)

    Addressing the unnecessary suffering of minority groups of all kinds is important. But putting them above issues that are critical to the survival of our society as a whole hurts everyone, even the people that these policies are designed to help.
