Why is H-alpha so popular? Are there low cost ways to look at fine detail of events and processes on the sun?

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1278689162297491 Why is H-alpha so popular? Are there low cost ways to look at fine detail of events and processes on the sun? Multiple frequencies? Energies, densities, temperatures, velocities, concentrations, entropy measures, etc? I am finding more and more groups sharing data about the sun on the Internet, and some of it is accessible in

AIs need to be treated as humans, evaluated on their ability to do the job or assume a role in society

Many discussions about large language models (LLMs) and whether they can truly “reason” are, honestly, missing the point. Inspired by recent research like Physics of Language Models(https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.20311), which examines reasoning processes by constructing tasks with fewer https://pic.x.com/0ygRGPm3Py Replying to @limoquan in Large language models (LLMs) I saw a note about a group called “Large language

I love it as an evocative image. But I absolutely hate that you used a lossy format

https://x.com/Havenlust/status/1854750698769920469/photo/1 My comment: I love it as an evocative image. But I absolutely hate that you used a lossy format so I cannot study the pixels with deep algorithms I know and design. NONE of the colors will match the original. Because you let the bad jpeg algorithms chew up your raw sensor data and

DNA genealogy – global, open shared, lossless, efficient, fair and for all humans

I have whole sections of my DNA matches that are off by two generations. Everything is crowded into 3rd and 4th cousins and many of them make no sense. I have found that part of that is mistakes in trees that are propagating faster and with less and less review. Ancestry does not give sufficient
