What’s the relation between the brains of mice, and the human brain? I am kind of lost trying to make the connection.

I also read that it isn’t 5 watts, but more like 10-20 watts. Still a super tiny consumption, comparing to what it takes to run anything AI.

Based on a recent study of the brains of mice I estimated the human brain to have 200B cells/neurons and 50,000T connections. We have several orders of magnitude to go before we reach that kind of scale with these fucking stupid Big LLMs 🤣 And the best part of all? 🧐 It is estimated that the human brain only consumes the equivalent of 5 Watts of power !!! 🤣🤣🤣

well, that leads to a long conversation.

Piracy is a difficult topic which is very personal, so I won’t say much about it.

On writing books, I’ve tried along with other digital products such as courses and videogames, and I got to confess that it has been hard for me.

If it helps, I think it all reaches our expectations on the activity and the result. If royalties is the expectation, it’s going to be slow. By 5% of royalties, for a rough example, a huge amount of sales will be required to get a decent “wage”, so I’ve understood of doing it by the side of a normal employment although it has been discouraging and a bit sad.

I went on a 5:30 hours long hike to my second backyard mountain. About 12km to get there and roughly 9km on the way back. It was super nice, sunny all day long, 12°C and luckily just a little bit of wind. Great scenery. I managed to capture one great spotted woodpecker hammering along. There was also a kestrel hovering over a meadow and then landing on a sports field light pole. At the castle ruin I could watch 10-12 gliding red kites (with the V-shaped tail) and other raptors, maybe bussards, I don’t know, for about five minutes. That was fascinating. Unfortunately, my camera doesn’t too well with moving targets.
