Based on a pie chart infographic by Michel Kurek labeled Qbit Modalities on the version I saw. This one is labeled differently. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/michelkurek_quantum-quantumcomputing-quantumcomputer-activity-7140621985566318593-jU9Q/

I often wonder why people put information into hard to read, can't be simply copied for pasting, infographics (ie, charts) instead of simple, logical. regular text or tables. I find this regular text list much easier to read than a pie chart. 

I'm not sure which spelling of qubit is preferred, qubit or qbit. My guess is qubit.

I think "modalities" is an oddball academic word less well understood than technology, method, or technique, so I used technologies instead of modalities.

MILES DAVIS - Kind Of Blue - 1959 Jazz Album

Someone online said Miles Davis's Kind of Blue album, released in 1959, when I was 4 years old, was excellent and totally current sounding. so I figure I'd give it a listen. My dad probably had this album, he was into both jazz and classical music, and played guitar and piano, and he loved stereo equipment, so I've probably heard this album multiple times but it was when I was too young to remember. It's maybe not music for most 4 to 10 year old's tastes. Not happy simple dance music. 

AI Porn Or Erotica Writing YouTube Playlist

This is a quickly made playlist of videos titled "AI Porn Or Erotica Writing" mostly related to using AI apps for porn or erotica writing. 

I don't know if any paid for general-purpose AI writing aid or story generator apps or sites will let you write hard-core porn or stories that aren't necessarily porn but which are or are thought to be illegal or stories that violate social mores that a presented in public as if they are near universal. 

To get truly uncensored writing you might need to use uncensored language models running locally. I succeeded at that using mulitple "run LLMs locally" apps, the first being GPT4ALL, and latest being LMSTUDIO. I liked LMSTUDIO best. These apps and the LLMs use huge amounts of space so uninstall unused apps and LLMs and double-check manually if drive space is a problem.

 Towards Dog Bark Decoding: Leveraging Human Speech

Processing for Automated Bark Classification\

by Artem Abzaliev, Humberto Pérez Espinosa, and Rada Mihalcea1

Similar to humans, animals make extensive use of verbal and non-verbal forms of communication, including a large range of audio signals. In this paper, we address dog vocalizations and explore the use of self-supervised speech representation models pre-trained on human speech to address dog bark classification tasks that find parallels in human-centered tasks in speech recognition. We specifically address four tasks: dog recognition, breed identification, gender classification, and context grounding. We show that using speech embedding representations significantly improves over simpler classification baselines. Further, we also find that models pre-trained on large human speech acoustics can provide additional performance boosts on several tasks.

Do raised toilet seats make it harder to poop?

 I am surprised and find it hard to believe that raised toilet seats increase constipation or make it harder to poop.

I have found through undesired research that not bending all the way down, as if you have a raised seat, makes it much easier to complete emptying the colon. I found multiple sources that contradict apparent first hand evidence. It not implausible to me that the standard American toilet seat height is near the worst possible height and the Squatty Potty makes it easier and the opposite, a raised seat, also makes it easier than the standard American toilet seat height. It's conceivable my subjective kinesthetic sense is inaccurate as to the angles involved. The sensing is being done in a time of high stress. Do you believe that extra high toilet seats, perhaps tilted so they're higher in the back than the front, would or do make it harder to go?
