The fact of the matter is, barring fire or flood, it's essentially impossible for paper poll-books to "fail". The same absolutely cannot be said for electronic poll-books.
We'll see what they say at the training!

Why Chinese Open Source AI Model Will Win Over American OpenAI [20:37 | JUL 07 2025 | Carl Zha]

Carl Zha talks to AI expert TP Huang on why Chinese Open Source AI Models will win over US closed OpenAI in global adoption of Chinese AI #china #techwar #deepseek

/ carlzhaGenerated Summary:
Main Topic: The AI race between the US and China, focusing on the potential for Chinese open-source AI models like Deepseek to surpass US closed models like OpenAI.
Key Points:
- AI Arms Race: The discussion highlights the view that the US and China are in an AI arms race, with significant implications for global dominance.
- Deepseek Ban: There's concern about a potential US ban on Chinese AI models like Deepseek, similar to the TikTok ban, driven by Silicon Valley lobbying.
- Open Source vs. Closed Models: The advantages of open-source AI models are emphasized, including cost-effectiveness, the ability to run locally without sending data to external servers, and customization to remove censorship.
- OpenAI's Limitations: Concerns are raised about OpenAI's reliability (downtime) and data privacy practices, making open-source alternatives more appealing for certain applications.
- Global Adoption: It's argued that countries and companies outside the US may prefer Chinese open-source AI due to cost, control, and the ability to tailor the models to their specific needs and cultures.
- Economic Implications: Restricting access to open-source AI models in the US could put American companies at a disadvantage compared to their global competitors.
- AI Hype and Investment: The discussion touches on the current AI hype and whether the downstream is paying for AI right now.
Highlights:
- The potential for a bifurcated world with US AI and Chinese AI dominating different regions.
- The observation that Deepseek's release wiped out $1.5 trillion off the US stock market in a single day.
- The point that open-source models allow users to avoid sending data to OpenAI and customize the model to remove unwanted censorship.
- The suggestion that the US political landscape is influenced by Silicon Valley's financial contributions.

This week I’ve been bitten by a giant centipede* and swarmed by a battalion of Polistes carolina wasps**; my normal laissez-faire policy with respect to the arthropods, winged or otherwise, is wearing thin.
____________
* OUCH do not recommend. Like a rookie fool, I’d omitted to check my boots for crawlies before putting’em on. About a quarter mile into my hike I detected a horrible, sharp pain in my foot. Pulled off the boot, expecting a piddly little scorpion. Butnno. It was a goddam *Scolopendra heros*, a Giant Texas Centipede.
Reader, it takes a lot to squick me out, but I have no stomach for giant centipedes. They’re just too goddang big, are too venomous, and have too many fucking legs.
Gripped with pain and irrational panic, I screamed like a city girl, splatted my ass down on the rain-soaked dirt, and pulled off my centipede-encrusted sock in about .04 seconds (the dog nose in the photo belongs to my feral Pomeranian, who enjoyed every second of this embarrassing display a little too much). I then defeatedly limped home in the rain, rapidly losing feeling in my big toe. It took about 5 hours for the pain to subside. These fucken things are no joke. Although, like all my doofy encounters with creepy wildlife, the tableau was comical AF.
** It’d been so long since I’d driven my own car off the farm that a colony of paper wasps had had time to build a whole-ass nest in the space between my driver’s side door and the fender.
I’d boarded the car without incident and driven into town, not having noticed the nest. Did my errand. But upon my return to the car, the wasps were by now kinda cheesed off. To my enormous surprise, an entire buttload of sting-y insects buzzed out of my car door at once and bounced into my face.
Pretty sure I did some hilarious and awkward anti-wasp-swarm moves in the parking lot while attempting to cognitively reconcile this unnatural state of affairs with any possible reality. It was only then that I noticed the nest and grasped the gist. When I got home (unstung, by some miracle), there were a bunch of panicked wasps buzzing around the carport, searching for their recent nest. So many of their compatriots had flown off in that parking lot 8 miles away! It was an emotional rollercoaster for all concerned.

It is also a local government issue to warn people about weather disasters so additionally fuck off, Kristi Noem and a last fuck off to anyone going on about “act of god.”
I don’t believe in one anyway, but if I did, an act of god should be funding government services and having services that warn people about evacuation in deadly weather. You’re an asshole if you think an act of god includes kid drowning.

Today I got up and dressed and left the house early.. I had my laser appointment at 9.30am, and then was attending an art show at Girrawaa Aboriginal Art Centre.
...except that my laser appointment is tomorrow morning.
...and the art show is on Saturday.
I don't think my dyslexia and dyscalculia has ever so thoroughly kicked my arse before.

*Girrawaa is the Aboriginal Art Centre at Bathurst prison. They're having an art show to showcase the art work of some of the people in prison there. There are going to be framed and unframed works available for sale.
The proceeds from the sales goes to the artist, with 20% being kept by the centre to purchase art supplies (paint, canvases, materials etc) for the artists to use in the centre.
If you're in the area, it's definitely worth checking out!
