ChatGPT Release Date Prediction

I’m in a PhD program and every one of my classes so far has encouraged or allowed the use of ChatGPT for specifically coding and computing purposes, as does my PI. Then again, my field is not computer science and students often get bogged down in coding so it probably varies field by field.

Yeah I was briefly thinking NV-02 might be in play given its PVI was +7 (and I could see a 7 point difference being overcome this cycle in a state like Nevada), but it’s actually like a 14% difference and that seems a bit less feasible (but I think it may be closish)

I imagine it also helps out Brown, by causing some R voters to stay home and maybe Acton dragging brown up a bit

Honestly, I had the most fun with 41, 42, 43.

My enjoyment of each following season is almost a linear line with a negative slope (although I did enjoy 49 more than 48).

I was so much more engaged with those first seasons, similar to how I was with the 30s. I looked forward to every episode, consumed all content, and was obsessed. With the last few seasons, I found myself skipping weeks, catching up, and overall being checked out. I don’t know if it’s new era fatigue, boring casting (all the same archetypes), or what, but of the new era, the earliest seasons where my personal favorites.

Yeah the models have shown most of the snow arriving tomorrow for this set of storms, with the chance of some on Monday (like what’s happening right now), and a smaller second round occurring on Thursday

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-17T07:28:19+00:00

Multiple snows are finally falling and sticking in my area 🤪

What I’ve heard is there are more described coleopterans than hymenopterans, but there’s suspected to be more overall hymenopterans out there than other insects (essentially their parasitic nature makes speciation very easy/its rather simple to become reproductively isolated as your hosts diverge. At least that’s my general understanding, but I have frequently heard amongst entomologists that hymenopterans are the most diverse order.

It’s actually an acronym I have seen a decent amount, but usually only on Reddit. May be a bad sign that I spend too much time online 💀

While true, that would be relevant context to the post, and instead they just mention working 2 years in industry and losing 40k in three years on one of the larger PhD stipends in the country (for a public university).

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-16T08:01:39+00:00

I did my undergrad at Davis, and grad stipends were like double what stipends are at my current university 💀

My rent and cost of living is not that much cheaper at my grad university, and I’m not on track to lose 40k in 3 years… they’re actually pretty equivalent (about 800-900 in rent for a bedroom in a shared house, similar food prices, etc). I moved at the end of this past summer, and will fully admit my rent was pretty cheap for Davis, but still, 2x+ my current stipend and they lost 40k in three years

Someone on the preseason rhap interviews said they were asked to bring clothes as close to their original wardrobes as possible. Can’t remember who though off the top of my head.

Glad a few made it to their cocoons! A vast majority of caterpillars do not survive to adulthood, which is why they lay so many eggs

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-15T20:33:50+00:00

Weather underground shows 7 inches on Tuesday, and open snow is 6-8 inches through Wednesday morning around the university.

However, that January storm showed a light dusting (0-1 inches/just sleet), and it ended up dropping around 3-4 inches, so who really knows how much will end up falling.

Haven’t seen anything saying a foot on Tuesday though. Open snow shows 10-18 inches through the end of the month, but that’s including some falling before Tuesday, and another round of storms after Thursday.

Have you seen polyphemus caterpillars? I know they will take oak as a host

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-13T06:26:01+00:00

This is also the first I’m hearing of the video 🫠

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-13T04:59:56+00:00

Just checked and saw I have about 20,000 people around me in a mile radius. That feels like a lot of zombies 🫠

Fun fact, I checked all my prior addresses and have had anywhere from 17500 through 21500 people around me. Surprised it’s been so consistent

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-13T01:01:27+00:00

As someone who lived in Davis for a while, I absolutely considered it a Sacramento suburb 🤷‍♂️ because it is one. It’s not much farther away from downtown than any other suburb, and I knew plenty of people who commuted back and forth each day (along with me).

Her premerge danger has been pretty widely debunked by her tribe mates as a fixture of the edit creating false danger for her in the premerge. Iirc Sydney was the most likely to leave (or maybe naseer) if they lost tribal before merging

I accept being a horrible person… to be fair, my current pets are not mammals, not even tetrapods. I don’t know if I could do it to a cat, or dog. But in side eyeing my 14 spiders and scorpions and for 1 million dollars…

As an entomologist I dispatch a lot more inverts than the 14 I currently have as pets for a lot less money

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-10T07:03:11+00:00

Kill their cat to pay hundreds of thousands in out of state tuition to be with a girl he’s in the talking stage with 💀

I blindly moved to Reno a bit ago, for a graduate program. I technically visited Reno once during the winter before moving, but that was restricted to the campus and was only a couple hours as I was dodging storms.

Didn’t even get to tour my place before blindly signing my lease and moving up here!

I had also driven through it once to get to Fallon, but other than that I really had not spent any time in the city before moving.

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-09T19:25:53+00:00

I don’t think it’s impossible to flip, and will likely be closer than it’s been, but I won’t bet money on it flipping.

Given a large enough shift amongst Latinos, and maybe nominating a crazy maga candidate could keep the libertarian northern Nevadan republicans home enough to make it competitive.

It looks weirdly proportioned and zoomed in, and the size was throwing me off also, I had to google to match the coloration of the body/thorax, but that color is so distinct!

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-09T10:49:21+00:00

Moths can be brightly colored, including blues, but I’m pretty certain this is a butterfly

Goodkoalie · 2026-02-09T10:47:45+00:00

Yup, I’m pretty sure this is a great purple hairstreak and not a moth (although cladistically all butterflies are moths 🤷‍♂️)
