On my bike I have a Topeak MTX Quicktrack 2.0 rail system. This is useful for the Topeak panier bags that I don't use. Occasionally I test radio payloads by using my bike to ride some distance away from a receiver. I wanted to have a way of building a payload on my desk, then quickly connecting it to my bike without much hassle. So I remixed two other 3d models into my own 2020 MTX Quicktrack sled thing.

Had a thought yesterday that LLM include a lot of biases and misconceptions and as such might have a "union workers are hard/annoying to fire" bias when/if HR tries to use one to reduce staff and might lean towards someone else.

Whenever I read "I work in a ED and ....(political opinion)" I switch off because while these people do amazing work, they only see a slither of some of the worst of society / society impacts and probably don't have time to think about larger picture or reason about why people got into the position they are in. Often their opinions are based a lot around feelings and not documented or well researched information.
