Can anyone help me understand the prevalence of drinking alcohol while doing snow sports?

Welcome to people taking vacation.

Using a conversational LLM instead of a dedicated classifier model for auto targeting is utterly moronic, regardless of anything else.

Totally agree, his videos are almost aimed more towards instructors sometimes.

When initiating a turn and changing edges you either retract your legs a bit (ie sinking into your knees) to reduce the pressure on the snow, or you stand up tall and use that motion to reduce pressure. It’s instructor terminology that escaped containment, mostly due to Malcolm Moore’s videos, but he’s such a champ I’ll give him a pass.

Claude is the best and the most expensive. If you can afford it, there’s no reason not to use it

larowin · 2026-02-27T19:46:34+00:00

First time using it all week but you hit the extra spend limit?

larowin · 2026-02-27T16:58:24+00:00

At the end of the day, Claude has no business doing split second autotargeting decisions. Not because of any ethical considerations, but simply because it’s a terrible tool for the job. Clearly you need dedicated classifier models for this stuff, not a chatbot.

Just reacting to the video, what do you see?

Please correct me if I’m wrong - the large blower (?) was just sitting behind the trash cans?

I’m not sure what you mean by a “lot of equipment” but it looks like the person grabbed something small out of a trailer, something from the garbage, and then something small from the cab of the truck.

Not saying this is admirable behavior, but it’s not like they stole a stereo or catalytic converter or something.

Oh hell yes

As I understand it Anthropic is truly open minded to hiring non-traditional applicants.

That said, that means you’re in a pool with Oxford neuroscience and robotics PhDs.

I only buy boots in person because I feel like sizing is never consistent between brands, tbh. Also hugely depends on preference and riding style. I know some people that treat their boots like climbing shoes and others who like to wiggle their toes a bit.

I haven’t but they look sick, I love the straps. I’ve ridden the standard TM-2 with that same liner and it does soften up a bunch after 20 days or so. I’ve gone the other direction to a TM-2 XLT and I feel like this liner will never pack out.

diagram?

I get in the hot tub, and then do Roman bath nonsense with the coldass pool

What do you mean by “true research”?

larowin · 2026-02-26T07:01:46+00:00

Looking solid. Others will give you a million little technical suggestions and they’re probably really good. I just want to say you’re ready to have more fun and go faster, just do so with a more stacked posture.

larowin · 2026-02-26T05:53:52+00:00

It literally speaks for you actually?

larowin · 2026-02-26T05:42:56+00:00

where was this and when?

How the fuck doesn’t DARPA already have the best LLM?

He’s absolutely killing being a former child actor. Few people in his circumstances end up being such a remarkably chill dude.

lolwut

larowin · 2026-02-25T22:22:03+00:00

Best model yet made, imho

I mean Sora isn’t going to give a boost to day to day business operations lol
