Omg I'd love this so much. Just imagine how many families this could help? Not to mention build stronger communal ties.

Today, I get to meet the undergrads I'll be supervising. They're each giving a presentation on what they're working on. Honestly, I'm so excited that I've been up since 3:30am. Part of me also worries that someone screwed up because I was that undergrad not so long ago. The whole thing is surreal

Yesterday RFK Jr said we will know the causes of autism by September then eliminate the contaminants (or something). Today is the day you pitch local media to say: here’s what we know, it’s complicated, RFK Jr is lying. File by Monday morning.

In other news, I worked from my deck most of the day. I didn't know how much I missed listening to all the neighbourhood kids play outside until today. Didn't hear that often in Lethbridge. Pretty sure every kid in town was out today.

Come on Manitoba, we're better than this 😞 This man did the right thing and should be able to stay. The man who hired him should not be able to run a construction company anymore. We need better oversight by the government, people are being taken advantage of.

Here's an example of the inherent issue with language and tools that try to understand language like search intent, sentiment analysis and LLMs/GPTs: The ball rolled off the table. Simple, right? There's a ball, a table, and the ball rolled and fell. But there's more implicit information.
