They don't. They work as intended and "hallucination" is actually a marketing term to make it seem they are more than what they really are: text prediction software.

One fact that I find very curious is that I see all sorts of animals killed on the road, but never chickens. And I see plenty of them by the road.

Maybe they never try to cross roads?


"Chicken" is also an idiomatic synonym for "frightens easily." They do have some instinct for avoiding danger.

They definitely cross roads.

In the mountains around Trondheim, Norway, you run into free range chicken farms (and sheep roaming the mountain top). Signs warn you that chickens are about and I think them getting hit is a real concern if you are maximizing chicken freedom.

That said, these aren't busy roads. The more traffic, the more barriers to keep the animals from getting hit.


or perhaps it's an artefact of them having a higher contrast against the asphalt and being somewhat fat and puffy compared to most roadkill animals

I'm getting redirected do example.com.

I don't know what you need, but have you looked at freewrap? It turns a tcl/tk script into a .exe.

In Brazil we have tiny native bees that don't sting. They make wax tunnels and the colonies grow very very slowly. I've been watching one for 20 years and it doesn't even seem to have doubled in size. They have suffered a lot with deforestation.

Arm came from Acorn and Acorn did make the first ARM CPUs for their computers, so it's not really the first time they do this.

They made the Morello research CPUs, but did not sell them.

The Acorn/Arm history is somewhat complicated due to the Arm IPO, I think.


One can split hairs about the corporate responsibility, but I personally bought a VLSI ARM chip in the 90s. VLSI were one of the original 3 partners (along with Apple and Acorn) who owned the newly formed ARM corp and were the first to produce them (for Apple).

Poisoning LLMs is an interesting path of resistance.

Well known running code has more weight than unknown code that may not run. I think it’s pointless.

Unless the repository uses GitHub's CI. Then it's extremely useful, could be used as RL environment.

In 1998 I was using a P166MMX with 64MB of RAM that I had bought in 1995 for my Master's.

It makes much more sense to me to be cheap on the CPU and splurge on RAM.

So I don't see why I would want to upgrade that CPU and keep the 32MB of RAM.


Retail SDR SDRAM prices from that time period.

"128MB DIMM: May 1997 $300. July 1998 $150. July 1999 $99. September 1999 Jiji earthquake happens. September-December 1999 $300. May 2000 $89.

Then overproduction combined with dot-com boom liquidations started flooding the market and Feb 2001 $59, by Aug 2001 _256MB_ module was $49. Feb 2002 256MB $34. Finally April 2003 hit the absolute bottom with $39 _512MB_ DIMMs"

Ram was expensive and unpredictable so no wonder eMachines didnt include that in the offer. By 2001 you could upgrade ram on the cheap yourself which many attempted https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/memory-for-an-e-machine...


The market can remain irrational longer than the capacitors on my motherboard can resist bloating.

I find their music repetitive. I could certainly listen to one or two songs, but not a whole album or show. And I would have no qualms wearing a T-shirt of theirs.

So there you have it.
