In the late 19th century, Karl Weierstrass invented a fractal-like function that was decried as nothing less than a “deplorable evil.” In time, it would transform the foundations of mathematics.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

Very funny when my friend is idly amusing about whether our flight will be delayed and I can give an estimate with a reasonable confidence interval because I'm tracking the inbound plane

A gentle reminder to my friends that not all AI / ML (machine learning) is LLM generative AI. There's still really cool and important work being done with ML to help people and the planet.

everyone replying to this post needs to log the fuck off and touch grass. Machine learning was a part of T&S for decades before you ever heard the term "generative AI". If you've ever complained about "all the bots on Bluesky, they should do something", the "something" you're asking for is ML.

For those not familiar with how financial markets work, US Treasuries are the ultimate safe asset, used as collateral for everything. Even a hint that some Treasuries might not be honored could bring everything to a screeching halt 1/

ChatGPT ad shows generative AI is totally washed. Impossible to tell what it was the first half until it started saying random prompts like "write me a business plan." Two years in and they don't have a better sales pitch than "summarise this article for me." Washed!

Another callout for the Quiet Posters feed: bsky.app/profile/did:... It's no longer possible for mere mute keywords to block the endless political posts on here, alas. But "people who don't post very often" is a surprisingly great filter. (I'm sure it filters out me. Nobody's perfect.)

Trade publications have an onus to be right because financial incentives are aligned. Readers cancel their subscriptions if reporting is disconnected from reality and losing them money as a result.

US banks already operate in Canada for institutional clients. They just largely don't want to deal with getting Canadian charters for retail deposit banking because the regulatory burden isn't worth the money to them. But the regulatory standard isn't any different for Canadian and foreign banks.

A poem by a classical Chinese woman poet as interpreted by me, a Canadian: 落花 — 朱淑真 Falling Flowers — Zhu Shuzhen 连理枝头花正开 Branches marry flowers on display 妒花风雨便相催 Jealous wind strips their blossoms away 愿教青帝常为主 If god of spring evermore would rule 莫遣纷纷点翠苔 Send not their petals on moss to splay

"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people.” I’ve had my differences with Justin Trudeau, for sure, but he rose to the occasion here.
