Does LLMs Really Makes Us Dumb

Does LLMs Really Makes Us Dumb
Oh look, a scientific paper proving what we all suspected: our brains turn to mush when we outsource thinking to AI. The title is actually a hidden message – "Does LLMs Really Makes Us Dumb" – with the first letters spelling it out. Brilliant academic trolling right there. Those fancy brain scans? They're showing our neurons basically taking a vacation when using ChatGPT for essays. Seven MIT researchers spent grant money to scientifically confirm that copying AI homework makes you dumber. Could've just asked any TA grading freshman papers. Next groundbreaking study: water is wet, and Stack Overflow copy-paste makes junior devs forget how loops work.

How Models Are Maintained

Meanwhile, the entire operation is held up by two ants labeled as "unpaid PhD students" who are desperately keeping the computing cluster running with nothing but SSH access and blind optimism. This is basically the tech equivalent of a nuclear reactor being maintained by two interns with duct tape and a Wikipedia printout. And yet, somehow, this is how we're building the future of technology.

From Hatred To Devotion: The LaTeX Journey

From Hatred To Devotion: The LaTeX Journey
First you hate LaTeX with its bizarre syntax and formatting quirks. Then you reluctantly try it.

You start screaming at it, then you're eating out of its hand, and finally you're staring dreamily into space wondering how you ever lived without those beautiful kerned mathematical symbols.
