“Slight of hand
Jump off the end
Into a clear lake
No one around.
Just dragonflies
Fantasize
No one gets hurt
You’ve done nothing wrong.”

Folks at #PemmiCon/#NASFIC, tomorrow (Fri), 1:30 pm in the hotel St. James room, I'll be reading my snarky genie comic #fantasy story that's coming out July 28 in the Dragon Gems summer anthology. I'd love to have folks come. #AmWritingFiction #WritersOfMastodon #AuthorsOfMastodon #AmWritingFantasy #Author #Authors #Writer #Writers #WritingCommunity #Codex #WritingLife #Bookstodon #WritingLife #Winnipeg

"The discussions on the future of Codex give us an opportunity to reflect & ensure that it remains the 🌍 reference for sustainable food systems."

Today in Writing History July 12, 1562: Fray Diego de Landa, Bishop of Yucatán, burned the sacred idols and books of the Maya. There were many Mayan books in print at the time of the conquest. They were produced as codices, or folding books, printed on bark paper by professional scribes and were the main written record of Maya civilization. De Landa wrote: “We found a large number of books in these characters and, as they contained nothing in which were not to be seen as superstition and lies of the devil, we burned them all, which they regretted to an amazing degree, and which caused them much affliction.” There are four known Mayan codices still in existence.

Okay, I've got an idea for an actual story. The prompt was to pick a spec-fic creature and a profession and build a story around it.

I'm at a Rugby tournament all day today, but I'll have a notebook and a pen with me. Here's hoping I manage to get some words down. I've got until Wednesday, so... 🤞✍️

Hello Wandering Shop community. An #introduction is the best way to start, I guess.

I'm a Bulgarian writer living in Germany. I write #fantasy and #scifi with an idealistic bend. Other things I like:

#yoga
#meditation
#reading
#scuba diving (though I haven't done that recently, landlocked, kids etc.)
#hiking
#aviation (my day job is a flight attend)
#science (I used to be a molecular biologist)

Member of #Codex and #SFWA (associate)

Better late than never, here's my #introduction to Mastodon:

I'm Jennifer, a writer of #SFF short stories, with a novel in the works. I currently live far from the ocean and I pine for it daily. I have a Siamese #cat named Loki who is both a snuggle muffin and a cranky old man.

Graduate of #Viableparadise #vp

Full Member of #SFWA

Almost exactly how humans solve problems. Not at all like monkey, typewriter, something something.

🤦‍♂️

@MargaretSefton @aijiang The Stoker Award finalists is a great place to start if you want to check out some great work: https://www.thebramstokerawards.com/front-page/the-2022-bram-stoker-awards-final-ballot/

Shameless self-promo: I have a story in the Mother: Tales of Love and Terror antho that’s up for Super Achievement this year, woo! That’s a really solid collection of stories, bias aside.

Never been to AWP. Love StokerCon and the #hwa tho. The horror community is, IMO, one of the best (but nothing compared to #codex, which really has my heart) <3

@randomgeek #Cody uses #Anthropic’s #Claude API or can be configured to prompt #OpenAI instead, as well as use the latter for embeddings: https://docs.sourcegraph.com/cody/faq#what-third-party-cloud-services-does-cody-depend-on-today

I’m glad neither #Sourcegraph nor its third-party #LLM⁠s train on the code you give it: https://docs.sourcegraph.com/cody/faq#does-cody-train-on-my-code

Cody is probably prompting #GPT4 (OpenAI deprecated the API for the #LicenseWashing #Codex model behind #Copilot) based on this #Slack #bot code: https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph@e772c7cbd177961cb2f8b02fcb35727158e8edef/-/blob/client/cody-slack/src/services/openai-completions-client.ts?L28

The Voynich Manuscript (named after Wilfrid Voynich, a book dealer who bought it in 1912) is a completely unexplained book written in an unknown language, probably in Italy in the early 15th century

A new Github Copilot video is going to be brewing. EXCITED! Does anyone want to see anything specific for me to try out using Copilot Chat? #github #copilot #githubcopilot #codex #ai #webdevelopment

What I notice about coding with #ChatGPT is that it (he/she or which ever pronoun is appropriate 😅) does not remember very well what it did.

Often function/class names suddenly changes or it goes against previous recommendations etc.

What are your experiences with using ChatGPT as a coding assistant❓

Next was an engaging talk by Mireia González on applying computational certifications to avoid impossible to enforce laws at #Stanford #CodeX. Some laws are logically impossible to implement, leading to programmers who build systems to enforce them effectively legislating on their own. González's work shows how systems can help legislators validate that their law does what they want it to do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pDB24ysfbg (10/11) #law

RT @FAOWHOCodex: 🤔 | #DYK | Kiwifruit is known as a nutritionally dense fruit based on the level of nutrients present. The high amount of vitamin C in 🥝 is the primary driver of such nutritional scores.

To protect consumer health #Codex adopted a standard for 🥝
