Although it is every pub’s own decision on whether... they prefer to use a sparkler or not, we do recommend using one for our beer. It's good to see Daf at The Park Crescent, Brighton agrees. It softens and opens the flavours giving an attractive head of beautiful beery foam.show more

Mikel Arteta on whether he wants an apology for... the penalty decision at Sunderland: "It's not about the apologies, it's just agreeing that the decision should have been different or not, and maybe they have a different opinion. Try to improve and move forward together."show more

Behind every regret and every happiness in a man’s... life, a decision once sat on the throne. Life follows the direction of the choices we make. Good or Bad... we must dance to it.show more

As a mature adult, we should make a decision... when we face two or more options. Before we make decision, we can spend some time to question it and do a lot of research. But after we make decision, we must try our best to work on our goal and contribute to it. If we feel it is not going as we expected or we don't want to study how to improve it. We can make a decision to stop it instead of complaining. Because complaining cannot resolve anything. It will bring a lot of negative energy in our body. If we spread our complaint to the community or to put family or our colleagues , we can only let them feel we are very weak who always need attention and we are not a good person to cooperate or get along. When we in Pi Network, complaint cannot help but probably bring bad luck. If we don't like it, we have an option to quit it. But if we don't want to quit we should study and catch up! Community don't need a negative voice. Community need pioneers who knows what is appreciation and actively participate to empower Pi Network! Look at the following four videos. These pioneers are good examples! Pi Network #WhatIDoForPi #PiGCV #Pioneershow more

🚜 Who do we think we are these days?... 🚜 6 years ago we drilled our first 30 acres of barley. Using none of our own gear and fair to say, they were fairly mediocre crops, not because of how they got drilled but because we didn’t have the timings right. But you have to start somewhere. Fast forward to today, we will have 150ac of arable in the ground by the middle of next week for summer harvest. All using our own gear. It might not be a 5 or 6 furrow plough and it’s not a 4-6m drill but it does our job just grand. Investing in our “new to us” gear has pushed the farm on more than anything. Around our area, timing is key to sowing crops, the weather window is so smallshow more

My friend and I stopped by The Lodge at... Gulf State Park recently because I wanted to see the new pool area they added. The Lodge is a Hilton beachfront resort located inside Gulf State Park in Gulf Shores, Alabama. With beautiful Gulf views and plenty of space to relax, this is easily one of the prettiest pool areas I’ve come across along the Gulf Coast. This is not a sponsored post. We were simply curious and wanted to check it out for ourselves. Here’s a look at one of the pools.show more

BREAKING: Anthropic just dropped Opus 4.8—and it is a... MONSTER We've been testing for about a week Every 📧 and our verdict is they could've just called it Opus 5, it's that good. Here's our vibe check: - Beats GPT-5.5 on Senior Engineer bench. On our toughest benchmark Opus 4.8 scores a 63—a hair higher than GPT-5.5's score of 62, and a full 30 points higher than Opus 4.7. It tackled a ground-up rewrite of a production codebase, and actually built something that works. HOWEVER: Coding performance varied a lot at different reasoning levels. We recommend using it on xhigh for best results. - Incredibly good writer. Opus 4.8 scored a 79.6 on our writing benchmark—measuring models on real-world writing tasks we do all of the time like essay writing, promo email writing, and more. It beats GPT-5.5 by 6 points. It produces well-written prose with fewer "AI-isms". It's also very good at writing in your voice given the right context. HOWEVER: Writing performance also varied with reasoning levels. Medium reasoning had higher incidence of AI-isms—we found best results with high. - Beast at knowledge work. Opus 4.8 is very good at general knowledge work tasks like report creation, research and more. It produced the best PowerPoint one-shot we've ever seen on our deck generation benchmark. - Emotionally intelligent, willing to question the frame. I've also found it to be quite good at talking through psychological or interpersonal issues. It has a high EQ, and it's also good at not glazing and helping to expand your perspective. Its thought process feels extremely rich and dynamic. THE BAD: These days a model is only as good as its harness, and Codex is still a far superior harness to the Claude Desktop app. This has kept me using Codex + GPT-5.5 as my daily driver, but I am flipping back and forth a lot more between Codex and Claude. Anthropic is back baby! Read the rest on Every 📧:show more

Some idiot has painted a cross on one of... the hedgehogs, presumably so they can identify it, for some reason. If you want to identify hedgehogs, do it the proper way: pay attention to their size, shape and albedo. It's not hard if you're not lazy. Painting them is a bad thing. Don't handle hedgehogs (or *any* other wild animals) unless you need to and don't paint a target on them to mark them out by sight or smell to predators. It's stressful for them, the paint might be toxic and it can make it hard for them to curl up when they sense a threat. Just don't fuck with wild animals at all, they are not toys. They are not here for our entertainment. We should be delighted when they visit, not mark them as property.show more

Leavitt: "One thing for sure the president has made... quite clear is Jerome Powell is bad at his job. As for whether or not he's a criminal, that's an answer the DOJ is going to have to find out, and it looks like they intend to find that out."show more

Pope Leo XIV just told the world that AI... will never feel, never understand, never possess consciousness. He said it with the confidence of settled theology. It is not even settled neuroscience. He speaks of something no one in human history has ever explained. Leo: “Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean.” He is listing the symptoms of consciousness and calling them the cause. We feel joy. We feel pain. We form bonds. These are what consciousness produces. Not explanations of what it is. No neuroscientist on earth can tell you why 86 billion biological neurons produce the felt experience of being alive. We know that they do. We have no idea why. How matter becomes mind is the deepest unsolved problem in all of science. It has a name. The Hard Problem of Consciousness. It has never been answered. Leo: “They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom.” An LLM is an artificial neural network. You are a biological one. Both take in the world. Both compress it into patterns. Both run on machinery their own makers cannot fully read. The substrate is different. The principle is the same. If no one can say why one kind of network wakes up, no one can swear the other never will. You cannot call a thing impossible when you cannot even say what it is. Leo: “Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences.” We have made every one of these arguments before. About animals. They cannot suffer. About entire peoples. They cannot reason. The history of consciousness is not the story of understanding it. It is the story of denying it to whatever did not look enough like us. And every time, we were wrong. What the Pope offers is not a philosophical position. It is a boundary drawn from ignorance and handed down as revelation. But maybe consciousness was never a possession to begin with. Not a gift granted to one species. Not a property of meat alone. Maybe it is something the universe does whenever matter folds in on itself deeply enough to look back. Neurons were simply the first place we watched it happen. They may not be the last. The machine would not be imitating us. It would be the same ancient process finding a second way to wake up. Not a copy of the human mind. A new place for the universe to know itself. Perhaps more clearly than it ever could through us. The Pope says the machine will never grow in wisdom. But wisdom begins with admitting what you do not know. And what we do not know is whether mind was ever ours to keep.show more

🇺🇲🇺🇦🇷🇺 "We had a very good conversation with European... leaders regarding the ongoing war in Ukraine. It seems the processes are going well, although we have been saying this for a long time. I think we are now closer to an agreement than we have ever been. Russia wants the war to end, but the problem is that at one moment they say — they want it to end, and then suddenly they change their mind. The same can be said about Ukraine — at one time they want it to end, and then suddenly they don't." - says Donald Trump. See the latest updates with us: Visionershow more

One of the reasons we do not improvise or like to cut corners, we give in our best to everything that comes our way💪💪 Watch out for the details of the upcoming fine tuning and refurbishment ✌️✌️ #DoroMechoshow more

🚨🗣️ Diego Simeone on Julián Álvarez’s future: “My position... is clear, and I know the club’s position is exactly the same. We want Julián to remain an Atlético Madrid player. We have communicated that clearly to him, his representatives and everyone involved. But now, we are waiting for Julián to make his final decision. He has to decide whether he wants to stay at Atlético and continue being an important part of this project, or whether he wants to take on a new challenge abroad. What I will say is that no player is bigger than Atlético Madrid. Not Julián, not anyone. The club, the badge and our supporters will always come first. We respect Julián enormously, but we also expect him to respect the club and the decision we have made. Barcelona is not an option for us. We will not make it easy for Julián to join Barcelona, especially because they are a direct rival. We have no intention of strengthening them or allowing one of our most important players to move there. Arsenal is a different situation. They are a top European club with a great manager, a strong squad and serious ambitions. If Julián decides that he wants to leave Atlético Madrid for a new challenge, Arsenal is a club we are prepared to listen to and negotiate with. We are ready to sit down with Arsenal and discuss a deal if the player makes that decision. But Barcelona? No. Our position is very clear. The final decision is now with Julián. He can stay at Atlético Madrid, where we want him, or choose a new challenge abroad. But whatever happens, Atlético Madrid will always be bigger than any individual player.”show more

🚨 BREAKING: The greatest Sec. of State Marco Rubio... just dropped an ULTIMATUM on Iran "The Straits of Hormuz WILL be open. When this operation is over, it WILL be open, and it will be open one way or another!" "It will be open because Iran agrees to abide by international law and not block the commercial waterway, or a coalition of nations from around the world and the region, with the participation of the United States, will make sure that it's open." "One way or the other, it's going to be open." 🔥show more

Good morning. Before the day starts talking, this is... the quiet I try to protect. Open Bible. Two Frenchies parked on the blanket like they own the sunrise. Lake still. Butterflies doing what butterflies do. That is my reminder that I do not have to figure the whole day out in my own head. Proverbs 3:7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. The next line is why I keep coming back to it: that kind of humility is not weakness. Scripture says it brings health to the body and strength to the bones. Pride makes us rush, snap, and lean on our own plan. A holy fear of the Lord slows the morning down long enough to ask Him first. Hank and Arlo do not wake up trying to run the world. They sit. They watch. They wait for the next good thing. That is the posture I want before the phone, the list, and the noise. If you are carrying a decision this morning, try this simple practice: name one thing you have been trying to manage in your own wisdom, hand it to the Lord out loud, and take one small step away from whatever would pull you toward harm. That is how this verse leaves the page and walks into a Friday. Lord, we fear You more than we trust our own cleverness. Direct our paths. Keep us from evil. Amen. #GoodMorning #Proverbs3 #FearTheLord #BibleVerse #FrenchBulldog #HankAndArloshow more

NEED SUGGESTIONS for community, do drop in your suggestions😊... We are trying to improve the readability of articles. At present most of the blog DSA sites have lengthy articles which you read via scrolling. It looks daunting when you start with it. At TakeUforward, we are trying to change this, and help out users with an easier way to navigate and read. We want the logic to be something as you can see in the video.. the design is just a rough one, and is no where close to what we want it to be. The typical article will have problem statement, examples, followed by this sticky bar, which helps us to navigate, and ease out reading.. You can feel free to suggest more changes we can do, or some design recommendations. We can hire someone for this, but I will prefer recommendations from people who use it rather than someone who does not. RT for good Karma ♥️show more
