Would model values like 'openrouter/pareto-code' or 'openrouter/auto' be of any help?

>That night my family watched a war movie on the VCR, maybe saving private ryan or something similar, and the helicopter struck me.

If there was a helicopter in the movie, then we can confidently exclude Saving Private Ryan.

> As the patient's temperature approached 22 °C (72 °F), low-frequency and low-amplitude sinusoidal electrical deflections were noted on his electrocardiogram.

Dunno about you, but this does things to me.

> I said build on top of wlroots, not DWL.

Turns out, the wlroots API is so volatile atm that even the developer of the super small compositor DWL has to throw in the towel for now.

> DWL is more interesting as a learning exercise than something to use.

The same is said about DWM, its xorg counterpart, but I, for one, am a happy user of DWM.

FTA:

> [Einstein's General Relativity] tells us that the universe is expanding

Does GR really tell us that though?

The way I understood it, GR's differential equations will produce solutions for many different constraints and initial conditions you throw at them. Including the constraints & conditions informed by astronomical observation.

> the assumption that every non-white person hired is a "diversity" hire before even looking at their qualifications is incredibly racist.

That's not an assumption that GP makes.

So this is about epidemiologist Martin Kulldorff being fired by Harvard for doggedly sticking to the evidence regarding covid immunity.

Some excerpts:

> With a genetic condition called alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, which leaves me with a weakened immune system, I had more reason to be personally concerned about Covid than most Harvard professors. I expected that Covid would hit me hard, and that’s precisely what happened in early 2021, when the devoted staff at Manchester Hospital in Connecticut saved my life. But it would have been wrong for me to let my personal vulnerability to infections influence my opinions and recommendations as a public-health scientist, which must focus on everyone’s health.

> Since mid-2021, we have known, as one would expect, that Covid-acquired immunity is superior to vaccine-acquired immunity. Based on that, I argued that hospitals should hire, not fire, nurses and other hospital staff with Covid-acquired immunity, since they have stronger immunity than the vaccinated.

> For scientific, ethical, public health, and medical reasons, I objected both publicly and privately to the Covid vaccine mandates. I already had superior infection-acquired immunity; and it was risky to vaccinate me without proper efficacy and safety studies on patients with my type of immune deficiency. This stance got me fired by Mass General Brigham—and consequently fired from my Harvard faculty position.
