Inspired by this, I asked DALL-E 2 for an early 2000s magazine photo of John Mastodon, founder of the Mastodon social network.

“You can’t get a ___________ home on a bike!” (or on foot)

Actually, maybe you can, maybe you can’t (I took this pic in Copenhagen many years ago).

And you don’t buy things like big screen TVs very often, these days most stores deliver, and we have car-share and taxis when we need them.

A brand new goal.

I haven't seen a paper that mixes a task-driven neural network (a la DiCarlo) with anatomical connectome detail, save for the work from Bryan Tripp. It seems like it's an obvious research direction and an important step towards virtual brains. Anybody know of any good work in this direction? CC @neuralreckoning @ShahabBakht

Some bad news about John Mastodon. #JohnMastodon

1) Create a limited number of NFTs.
2) Offer half of them to rubes at $99 a pop. Sell out to create artificial scarcity.
3) Float a small number of the remaining half on an exchange for absurdly high prices, say, $10,000. The punters won’t bite but you can buy them from yourself to support the value.
4) Value your remaining holdings at $10K each instead of $99 each. Presto, you’ve invented tens of millions of dollars.
Now anybody who wants to give you money can buy your NFTs, clean.

International poll, so please boost for a wider sample.

How many languages can you read (and, of course, understand!) without the help of an online translator?

Looks to be that Elon's jet is headed to Europe

Your name is JOHN MASTODON. As was previously mentioned it is your BIRTHDAY. A number of CAKES are scattered about your room. You have a variety of INTERESTS. You have a passion for REALLY TERRIBLE MOVIES. You like to program decentralised social network software but you are NOT VERY GOOD AT IT.

I avoid jet trackers by not taking a private jet every single day

Using #vim is easy once you learn a few basic keybindings.
