I was convinced I had a bio here, however it seems there was not one. Here it is: Based in the Amsterdam area. Born in The Netherlands and very much a European citizen. Being multilingual is very common around here. The human scale in technology is something I find extremely important. Programming stuff to move data around and hitting keys to create music. Some problems should not be solved by technical interventions. Machines are tools that need to be used wisely.

Read the small print in the Microsoft end-user license agreement / EULA which stipulates that Copilot is for entertainment purposes only. https://www.msn.com/en-us/technology/artificial-intelligence/microsoft-terms-say-copilot-is-for-entertainment-purposes-only/ar-AA20pepV npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp This is a feature. Initially Large Language Models did not generate anything interesting, they got stuck fairly quickly. This was changed by 'relaxing' the parameters a little. Technically they are called weights and bias parameters. In layman terms, basically instructing the LLM to keep going, even if the following phrases were loosely related. Basically telling the LLM to keep pushing if it measures it is about to get stuck and 'allow' it to associate loosely in order to not get stuck. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Wanneer je zoiets als kleine ondernemer flikt dat heb je het aan de stok met de #belastingdienst.

Het lukt simpelweg niet zoiets zo lang buiten beeld te houden zonder medeweten of zelfs op initiatief van de top. Dit zou moeten resulteren in strafrechtelijke vervolgingen wegens een ambtsmisdrijf, of hoe zoiets juridisch heet. @npub15rk…lkum @npub13zz…aqfv npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Buitengewoon kwalijk maar helaas niet heel onverwacht. Dit zat er natuurlijk aan te komen. Normaal gesproken gaan er als gevolg hiervan mensen naar de gevangenis. Even kijken of dat ook daadwerkelijk gaat gebeuren. @npub15rk…lkum @npub13zz…aqfv npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp The future of social media is decentralized. No single entity should own an entire platform. We made that mistake before and it is wise to learn from past mistakes. Too much power in one hand will lead to enshittification and abuse of power. The definition of insanity is joining centralized social media platforms over and over again and expect the outcome to be different.

Zo wilde de baas van de Mossad, de Israëlische geheime dienst, haar later ontmoeten om te praten over lopend onderzoek van het ICC naar Israël. "Ze wilden dat ik ermee stopte", zegt Bensouda." De machthebbers in Israël kunnen vanalles willen maar oorlogsmisdaden worden gewoon onderzocht. Het is namelijk niet zo dat Israël een vrijwaring heeft om oorlogsmisdaden te mogen plegen. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp It is very clear you are a fan too. @npub1pce…geep npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Zonder meer een van de beste politici in de Tweede Kamer. Ze zegt waar het op staat. @npub1alr…jszd npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp De berekening is simpel. Wanneer twee kerncentrales rond het jaar 2035 20-30 miljard kosten dan kosten vier centrales 40-60 miljard. Ze zijn naar verwachting niet in 2035 maar pas na 2045 gereed. Reken tegen die tijd daarom op een bedrag dat tegen de 100 miljard ligt. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Vier miljard subsidie is alvast een stuk beter dan honderd miljard. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp "Gascentrales staan vaker stil, steun nodig om ze open te kunnen houden" Hernieuwbare energie is simpelweg goedkoper. En dan zijn er mensen die honderden miljarden willen uitgeven voor de bouw van nucleaire centrales? Mijn voorstel is om de huidige generatie gascentrales met een hoog rendement achter de hand te houden als vangnet voor wanneer hernieuwbare energie tijdelijk onvoldoende capaciteit kan opwekken. Dat is simpelweg de meest realistische oplossing. https://nos.nl/artikel/2613527-gascentrales-staan-vaker-stil-steun-nodig-om-ze-open-te-kunnen-houden via #nos npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Information is still scarce. We will have to wait until more fact are confirmed. @npub1ucv…5a8g npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp It is confirmed that the ship visited a port in the south of Argentina. @npub1d26…72uz @npub1ucv…5a8g npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp At the moment there is still minimal information and therefore plenty of speculation. Reasons to believe that it might be human to human contact is because the first two people who died were Dutch. One got sick after the other. Although unconfirmed it looks like they were possibly a couple. @npub1d26…72uz npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp It is most likely transmission from human to human. From what I get it looks like one passenger brought it on board and infected others. @npub1ucv…5a8g npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp The USA dictator has painted himself in a corner. That is what dictators do, they do stupid things. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp I read "... to #trumps but ..." Which is technically correct. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp I pity the jury of the Darwin Awards now there are so many more candidates to shift through. I mean seriously, how do you reduce all of this to a somewhat manageable short list? @npub1ucv…5a8g @npub1deh…rnu9 @npub1d26…72uz npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp The final relative humidity in the air should ideally be around 55 - 60 %. This is what we humans feel comfortable at. An evaporative (swamp) cooler will generate an air humidity around 70 to 90 %. If your ambient air is dry enough you can mix in warmer dry air to reduce the humidity. Is your ambient air already close to lets say 45 - 50 % than this might not be the ideal cooling solution. It will work but won't be as affective as when the air has a relative humidity of 15 - 20%. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Depends on how humid is humid. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp They work great in a dry climate as it uses water evaporation, and therefore is a massive humidifier, to create a cooling effect. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp You can say that again. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Oh ja, daar heb ik ook ooit nog eens mee lopen prutsen. @npub1s55…2phf @npub1t4h…ewmp @npub1j3f…ew3d @npub1z9p…w96t @npub133m…tpq5 @npub184m…rqze npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Now the fun starts when a new generation of LLM's is trained on the output of LLM's. What could possibly go wrong? @npub1jgx…lccr npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp That 'just ok' might work for certain cases and people also need to respect that it just doesn't work in other cases. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp I am more worried about the absolute mediocre output of ai. For some it might be 'good enough' and that is ok. Please do understand that for most of us 'good enough' is just below our standards. Don't let an ai that is 'good enough' drive your car or have an ai that is 'good enough' do your finances. Accidents will happen and those accidents will be very costly. npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp Hoe het mogelijk is dat zij er nog zit is mij een volstrekt raadsel. @npub1e6k…2vjd npub1ev5vnvjsfvu6rveycmr3dvnfcvehj3ew8kc7y534luf99n3xc93qqlkzgz Frank Heijkamp There is no algorithm like on the other platforms, making it very difficult or even technically impossible for bots to amplify their posts. Engagement on the #fediverse is much more organic, where real people reply and boost other accounts. Nothing is forced onto your timeline.
