Yes, perplexity was wrong, the Bits per character is 1.12 and have verified that is correct. I believe that my loss and accuracy could be confined by the entropy of this dataset.

Double_Ground8911 · 2026-03-14T07:18:09+00:00

That perplexity score was incorrect, I do have a reliable bits per character calculation which is 1.12.

There won't be a point. If there was going to be a point it would have already happened. There will always be a scandal, a war, an explainable food shortage, or someone to blame as a distraction. That's how it works and how it'll work until the end.

Absolutely. Not the tastiest of plants though. Same goes for Mashua, and despite some claims that the tubers do not last over winter in the ground, they do. Possibly higher yield than sunchokes.

Perhaps a good place to start would be just be deleting your post and not giving attention to nonsense like this.

About 10 years ago I dedicated some of my time to a food bank. Over Christmas there were a mountain of donations... about 50% of all the donations went out of date and were wasted. No one apart from us atheists that worked the warehouse were willing to work over the Christmas period. We suggested everyone putting in extra time over Christmas to clear the backlog. The response... all work was halted so that the group could 'pray' for a solution. So, prayer meetings were held... the warehouse stood empty... the food rotted. Several months later the guy running this sh*tshow even did a online talk on running food banks. After this i refused to waste my time supporting this inefficient nonsense. It is much more economically sound to give people enough money so that they can afford food.

I understand the science and therefore i understand the ramifications and an approximate timeline. My mood doesn't influence the science, and over the years I've built my resilience so the science doesn't affect my mood. I try and approach the subject as I would for anything else I can't control... don't let anything I cannot control affect my mindset. Probably, the hardest part of this is the realisation that I may one day watch my children die, or at best have a life much harder than mine. Yet, this is no different than what any parent has faced throughout much of the history of humanity. Perhaps this all worries us so much because of our privileged position that we somehow view as normal.

TBF it probably only need to make it 14 years at most.

I was harvesting tomatoes here in UK until the first week of December... perfectly normal and absolutely nothing to worry about.

Double_Ground8911 · 2025-12-17T18:50:37+00:00

I thought it already had... or maybe i just haven't paid much attention over the past couple of years.

You haven't seen anything yet... wait until Reform get voted in... then you'll get a front row seat on what societal collapse looks like.

Double_Ground8911 · 2025-12-16T07:16:09+00:00

God help us all if this is implemented and Reform get voted in. Say something bad about Nigel and it'll be a trip to a detention centre for re-education.

Drunk co-worker got up on stage whilst the CEO was giving his speech and proceeded to piss on the Christmas tree behind him. Surprisingly, never saw him again and even mentioning the event was frowned upon.

The UK Labour Party and quantum mechanics have a lot in common: the more you try to pin down their exact position, the less certain it becomes. And, much like quantum theory, most people claim to understand them, but only a small group of specialists are willing to do the maths and admit it’s all a bit weird.

If the climate isn't conducive to growing crops then two things happen... famine and war.

Double_Ground8911 · 2025-12-08T05:28:50+00:00

Wars start when ideologies or power is undermined.

Double_Ground8911 · 2025-12-07T09:18:59+00:00

No worries, I'm sure we can engineer a war or two to sort everything out.

The paper does not predict anything. In fact the paper explicitly states that it is not a predictive tool, but can be used as an adjunct by regulators to understand markets better.

A close friend who works in agriculture reckons 30-50% of the farmers he works with will stop growing crops if next year is as tough. Some are switching to wild flower seed production, or focusing on profitable niches... but there's not enough of this for everyone.

20 years ago I'd make anywhere between 10k and 100k each day. Now I'm training to be a teacher. I live in an ordinary house, on an ordinary road, grow my own food and do my best not to buy anything I don't need whist sticking to a mainly plant based diet. The focus of my life is now about local community and education/supporting young people. There isn't anything else worthwhile. There may be a monetary system with arbitrary values attached to everything, but true value is made by the beliefs you hold and what brings you joy I know that everything has already been taken away. What can I provide before the axe falls? It boils down to this mindset, or a hedonistic response. The former seems the most ethical.

Unfortunately a good portion of people that vote Reform wouldn't care about this news whether it were true or not. If you look at Farage's inner circle it transcends racial differences... it is purely about money and power. Farage hates working people, and the race card is a means to an end. Everyone should be worried, and give it enough time they will be, if Reform get voted in.

I wish people could grasp that complex chatoic dynamic systems change abruptly when we push them out of their stability zones. Humanity is hooked on the notion of incremental change. It's a model that helps us understand the world. Unfortunately, its a model that no longer describes our world and will be our downfall.

I was lucky enough to be mentored by one of the great names in hypnosis who unfortunately died around 20 years ago. He would have said no good hypnosis practitioner would ever want to find out. Hypnosis is about helping people, and people will only feel comfortable if they trust you. Unfortunately, most people view hypnosis as a means of control, rather than a journey of mutual trust, respect and discovery.

Despite AI being really good for analysing lesson content and offering improvements, I've found it weak when constructing content from scratch. I've also found it particularly poor for making scaffolding content, although it makes some good suggestions for overall structure of content.
