It's probably just because my family's in the fishing industry that I know the secrets of the sea: for instance, boats go on the water and lighthouses go on land, and they should generally not be in the same place at the same time.
@ArchiteuthisFlux I work for a govt agency (sweden) and our director has told us the Big Goals are a lighthouse for everyone to steer towards and I (who wfh) have been yelling NO THAT'S NOT HOW THAT WORKS at my computer screen for a year

@ArchiteuthisFlux [holds up a PID controller] BEHOLD! an intelligent system!
@gardencourt My attempt formally to define humans as featherless biPIDs have been crushed.

@ArchiteuthisFlux while this is funny and it made me chuckle I have to ask why you're still validating X by visiting the place?
@rozeboosje 'Cause I like to see a variety of insufferable takes. Thank you for the extremely mastodon one here.

@ArchiteuthisFlux maybe it could be argued that a learning system reduces the variance and standards deviation of its corrections, while possibly increasing frequency?

@ArchiteuthisFlux previous version had moth and a flame.

@ArchiteuthisFlux and the algorithm they think is intelligent works on the same principle as a thermostat.

I have no way to make this seem at all relevant but now that this post has broken containment, you should get a Jumperless V5
Jumperless V5
What is it? Jumperless V5 lets you prototype like a nerdy wizard who can see electricity and conjure jumpers with a magic wand. It’s an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for hardware, with an analog-by-nature RP2350B-based dev board, a drawer full of wires, and a workbench full of test equipment (including a pow

@ArchiteuthisFlux I made the two terrible mistakes of buying the original in 2024, and then being unemployed. I'm sure I'll eventually cave for the shiny new thing though...
(And no I'm not in any serious way saying buying the original was a mistake, god I hate jumper wires for what should be a relatively simple test circuit being thrown together, which is most of my breadboard use)

@ArchiteuthisFlux I guess my rice cooker claims that it's capable of fuzzy logic.
It is a simple expert system that says "how long cooking?" "is it hot?" "ok done"
I'm sure the first thermostats were billed as intelligent automata freeing you from the labor of opening the flue manually.

@ArchiteuthisFlux I dunno, that diagram looks kinda tacky.

@turmoni Not to tempt you further, but I do have a $150 off discount code for "upgrade pricing."
I have no way to automatically verify you have an OG Jumperless so the process is just DMing me and I'll take your word for it and send you a code.

@ArchiteuthisFlux Garbage in, garbage out. Tell a computer to punch itself in the face and it absolutely will.

@ArchiteuthisFlux also, that's not how you navigate, at all.
It looks more like a sailboat tacking, and failing to pay attention to the massive lighthouse in their direction of travel

@ArchiteuthisFlux
let them founder
let em sink
let them drown if
they won't think -
@sortius @ArchiteuthisFlux not to be nitpicky but: don't boats steer port/ starboard, not left/right?
@patrascan @ArchiteuthisFlux technically, yes. Depends on how much nautical training you've had

@ArchiteuthisFlux That thing is cool!
