Ivermectin worked for me. It was like a light switch; I cannot say enough good things about it.

TIL The star Betelgeuse has been recorded since Chinese antiquity, with notes of the star then being yellow, by the time of Ptolemy it was orange, and now red. The star is the tenth brightest in the sky and expected to go supernova in the next 100,000 years.

Some nice pieces there. Right now, SD 2.0 is lawyerly neutered (removed so much from trained image library, it's been lobotomized) and subpar (Use SD 1.5, until unofficial trained models restore 2.0's ability), but honestly MidJourney v4 is beating SD for general "wow factor" with basic prompts (The development cycle is so fast, by end of year, might be different best of breed)

One of the understudied causes of the mass hysteria which broke out in 2020 is the deification of mathematical models. We were promised certain doom by Neil Ferguson from the Imperial College London and The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington. Politicians and media outlets took every graph they created as if it were directly from the Oracle of Delphi. They were prophetic utterances! “Thus saith The Experts, The Science’s wrath is upon, let us distance and muzzle ourselves in penance!”

These weren’t prophets warning us about the future. They were profiteering charlatans who knew what they were paid to predict.

Thucydides described the tomb. And then, they found it.
