It shows several individuals dressed in formal attire, including military uniforms adorned with medals and decorations, suggesting high-ranking officials or dignitaries. The central figures appear to be two women wearing tiaras and elaborate dresses, indicative of royalty; one is Queen Elizabeth II based on her iconic dress sash and crown.

pro tip for student pilots: it really impresses PPL examiners when you request a radio check from the tower on both com radios before you leave.
I did this and my examiner made a note of it.
I later managed to fly out of range of the tower due to nervousness before switching to the next controller and had to relay my sign off through some other plane, which kinda cost me some points but hey.

Lety Does Reacting to “One Piece” Episodes 1145 & 1146
The Giant Warrior Pirates finally reunite with Luffy! Who remembers them! Which feels weirdly out of character, as he doesn't remember anyone, but then again, most people Luffy meets aren't 70 feet tall. And then he goes full Dodgers to try to strike Saturn out, which isn't really a Looney Tunes/Western cartoon trope. I think Oda just really likes baseball.

Honduras is still waiting for the final presidential election count, over a week after the vote
cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/39998204
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras (AP) — More than a week after Hondurans voted to elect a new president, results continue to trickle in as complaints grow about the slow process and allegations of irregularities by the three top candidates.The election to pick a new president and Congress was held on Nov. 30 and as of Monday, 88% of the ballots have been counted.
The two leading candidates are Nasry Asfura, of the conservative National Party, who has 40.21% of the votes and Salvador Nasralla, of the also conservative Liberal Party, who has 39.49%.
Rixi Moncada, who ran for the ruling social democrat LIBRE, or Liberty and Re-foundation party, is in third place with 19.28% of the votes.

It Only Takes a Handful of Samples To Poison Any Size LLM, Anthropic Finds
It stands to reason that if you have access to an LLM’s training data, you can influence what’s coming out the other end of the inscrutable AI’s network. The obvious guess is that you’d need some percentage of the overall input, though exactly how much that was — 2%, 1%, or less — was an active research question. New research by Anthropic, the UK AI Security Institute, and the Alan Turing Institute shows it is actually a lot easier to poison the well than that.
We’re talking parts-per-million of poison for large models, because the researchers found that with just 250 carefully-crafted poison pills, they could compromise the output of any size LLM. Now, when we say poison the model, we’re not talking about a total hijacking, at least in this study. The specific backdoor under investigation was getting the model to produce total gibberish.
The gibberish here is triggered by a specific phrase, seeded into the poisoned training documents. One might imagine an attacker could use this as a crude form of censorship, or a form of Denial of Service Attack — say the poisoned phrase is a web address, then any queries related to that address would output gibberish. In the tests, they specifically used the word “sudo”, rendering the models (which ranged from 600 million to 13 billion parameters) rather useless for POSIX users. (Unless you use “doas” under *BSD, but if you’re on BSD you probably don’t need to ask an LLM for help on the command line.)
Our question is: Is it easier to force gibberish or lies? A denial-of-service gibberish attack is one thing, but if a malicious actor could slip such a relatively small number of documents into the training data to trick users into executing unsafe code, that’s something entirely worse. We’ve seen discussion of data poisoning before, and that study showed it took a shockingly small amount of misinformation in the training data to ruin a medical model.
Once again, the old rule rears its ugly head: “trust, but verify”. If you’re getting help from the internet, be it random humans or randomized neural-network outputs, it’s on you to make sure that the advice you’re getting is sane. Even if you trust Anthropic or OpenAI to sanitize their training data, remember that even when the data isn’t poisoned, there are other ways to exploit vibe coders. Perhaps this is what happened with the whole “seahorse emoji” fiasco.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell I wrote my governor telling him he should probably retire, considering the whole ageism problem in America, and use the rest of his time partnering with Great Lakes states and Canada to revise the Charter. He did step down, but probably couldn't resist the extra boost in retirement for greasing some wheels on the way out. Everyone's drinking the Kool-Aid. They all want a piece.
