White Cedar Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 The antics of our dogs; the red-tailed hawk perched on the garden post; the cool evening breeze; making a list of 27 ways to create enthusiasm; dishes are done; clean sheets on the bed; singing along with my Maverick CD; talking to the seed potatoes while planting them, telling them they will be very happy in their new home; laughing at the way the dogs nudge the frogs aside that live in the dog watering trough, so they can get a drink; and tomorrow I get my hair cut as a reward for reaching a weight goal. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thrillho Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Quote The neural network has weird ideas about what humans like to eat So I’ve been training this neural network to generate cookbook recipes by letting it look at tens of thousands of existing recipes. The generated titles can get a bit odd. There’s a creativity variable I can set when the network is generating new recipes, and when I set it low, it comes up with its best guess at the most quintessential recipe titles: Cream Cheese Soup Cream Of Sour Cream Cheese Soup Chocolate Cake (Chocolate Cake) Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Cake Chocolate Chicken Chicken Cake Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Cake Chocolate Chips Chocolate Chips With Chocolate Chips When I tell it to get creative, things get even weirder. Beef Soup With Swamp Peef And Cheese Chocolate Chops & Chocolate Chips Crimm Grunk Garlic Cleas Beasy Mist Export Bean Spoons In Pie-Shell, Top If Spoon and Whip The Mustard Chocolate Pickle Sauce Whole Chicken Cookies Salmon Beef Style Chicken Bottom Star * Cover Meats Out Of Meat Completely Meat Circle Completely Meat Chocolate Pie Cabbage Pot Cookies Artichoke Gelatin Dogs Crockpot Cold Water 5 Quote The cancer was aggressive, but the chemotherapy was aggressive, as well.

Raincloak Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Umm what. I think my favorite of those is "crockpot cold water," but "export beans in pie shell, top if spoon and whip the mustard" is a close second. It's like the people who mistranslate those computer setup manuals wrote a cookbook .ps I scrolled down to the "neural cookbook meets HP Lovecraft" entry. Shit, this thing could write for "Welcome to Night Vale." 1 Quote Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. Hylian Assassin 5'5", 143 lbs. Half-marathon: 3:02It is pitch dark.

Guzzi Posted April 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Yes!!!!! I did a push-up today! Ok, that's stretching the truth a little. I did a push-up from my knees, but it was all the way down, with elbows tucked in at the sides, and a straight back - no coming up shoulders first. I've been completely unable to do a single knee push-up to full depth so it was quite a surprise when I was able to know 3 of the feckers out today. I managed a fourth but it was too ropey to count, my shoulders definitely came up first. All my others were done to half depth after that. I've been trying to do 10 push-ups every day as part of my physio routine, it's great to see that it's paying off. 5 Quote Make Life Rue The Day Turning back the clock Recipe book 14 Life is far too short to take seriously Link to comment

Loveable_Bouncer Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Double smile, work had a free picnic lunch (really happy because of the lack of food funds I have left and able to chat with a coworker. While also running into an old high school classmate and approached me for a chat. Wasn't feeling well at work all morning, that it's nice when I have face to face conversation with people that enjoy my company (especially when I know I wasn't always the nicest person to get along with). 2 Quote "Operation Bad*ss" Starts 9/1/2024 Quest 1: Level up Basecamp Link to comment
