He loses consciousness and falls into the river below the bridge as the rope snapped. He awakens to a strong pain running through his body. Farquhar sees a light flash and fade before it grows brighter and he rises to the surface of the river. He is afraid that he will be shot by the northern forces as soon as he is spotted in the water, and makes an attempt to free his hands and neck from the rope. Once freed he finally breaks the surface of the water and inhales deeply and painfully. He looks to the bridge and sees his executioners standing on the bridge looking for him. A sentinel fires his rifle at him but misses, Farquhar notices his grey eyes through the sight of the gun. Farquhar then hears the lieutenant instructing his men to fire, so he dives under the water and swims with the current away from the bridge. A cannonball lands two feet away from him and he swims harder for the shore. He is spun round by the current and winds up on a gravelly bank out of site and range of the gunfire. He weeps with joy and takes in the beautiful landscape around him. He heads into the forest and follows a path, walking all day to his home. Time seems to pass without him noticing, and he rouses standing at his front gate. He makes his way towards his home and sees his wife come down the verandah to meet him. When he moves to embrace her, he feels a sharp pain in his neck and sees a blinding white light. Farquhar is dead. He is hanging at Owl Creek Bridge.

One day, while he and his wife sitting on their patio, a grey-clad soldier rode up to them and asked for a glass of water. The soldier appears to be a confederate. While his wife got some water, Farquhar asked some questions from the front and was informed by that the Northern forces took Owl Creek Bridge, and have repaired the railroad to prepare for an advance. Any civilian caught interfering with the Northern forces would be hanged. Farquhar asks how someone could help the southern forces, and the man replies that he could easily set fire to the driftwood in the area to burn the bridge down. The man then drinks his water and leaves, and we are informed that he was actually a Northern scout.

His wrists are bound and there is a rope tied around his neck. He is positioned on loose planks that have been made into a makeshift platform. Two army soldiers, a captain and a sergeant from the Northern Army are surrounding him. Farquhar observes the forest scene around him and takes in the army on the banks of the bridge while the men around him move to their final positions. Awaiting the captain's signal, the sergeant is about to step away to let Farquhar drop. Farquhar tries to stare into the water swirling below. He watches some driftwood get carried away by the slow water. He shuts his eyes to push away any visual distractions and tries to think of his family. He gets distracting by a ringing metal tone that seems to bang constantly, but slower and slower. Farquhar opens his eyes and tries to imagine himself freeing his hand and swimming away down the river to his family. These thoughts are barely realised before the captain nods and the sergeant steps off of the board.

I've had a chance to interview a lot of immigration attorneys recently on my show, but this next guest is the managing partner of Tidwell, Swaim, and Farquhar. They've been around since 1978. That's amazing!

Simon Farquhar – A deafening silence: forgotten British murders...with TRE's Giles Brown

(T5//E17) "Andrew Lee Farquhar" ¡Hola terrícolas! En el episodio de hoy, nos adentramos en la obra y el enigma de Andrew Lee Farquhar, un pianista que ha sabido transformar el piano en un medio para explorar las profundidades del alma. Con un toque único y una sensibilidad espectacular, Farquhar lleva a su audiencia en un viaje introspectivo, donde cada nota es un susurro y cada silencio, una pausa para reflexionar. En este monográfico, o como nos gusta llamarlo, especial, descubrimos las múltiples facetas de su música, su búsqueda constante de lo trascendente, y cómo ha logrado que cada interpretación sea una conversación silenciosa entre él, su piano y quienes lo escuchan. Andrew Lee Farquhar es un pianista que parece vivir entre el misterio de las teclas y el silencio, donde cada nota se convierte en una chispa viva, en un eco resonante de su propia sensibilidad. En sus manos, el piano no es solo un instrumento: es un puente entre el mundo tangible y lo etéreo, entre lo que escuchamos y lo que imaginamos en el espacio profundo de nuestra mente. Escucharlo es sumergirse en un universo donde el tiempo pierde sus ataduras; él sabe cómo estirarlo, detenerlo y, en ocasiones, desintegrarlo entre sus dedos con una precisión que solo puede compararse con la naturaleza. Hay en su música una búsqueda constante, como si cada melodía fuera un sendero hacia algo insondable, algo íntimo y, sin embargo, compartido con aquellos que lo escuchan. Farquhar convierte cada interpretación en un acto de introspección colectiva, un momento para recordar lo que el corazón ha callado. Cada pieza que toca es como una conversación sin palabras, un susurro con el alma, un diálogo entre lo que se ha vivido y lo que aún queda por descubrir. Se siente el peso de su interpretación, esa capacidad para hacer que una melodía nos atraviese con fuerza y, a la vez, nos acaricie con suavidad. Farquhar entiende que la música es una forma de lenguaje que trasciende, que no necesita de argumentos ni explicaciones, y nos invita a escucharlo como quien escucha al viento en una noche sin luna, dejando que nos envuelva en su misterio y nos lleve donde él mismo se pierde. En su arte, Andrew Lee Farquhar se convierte en un tejedor de sueños, en un alquimista del sonido, y quienes lo escuchan se encuentran a sí mismos viajando por los rincones más profundos de sus propias emociones, buscando respuestas a preguntas que ni sabían que llevaban dentro. Hoy flotaremos con… Andrew Lee Farquhar. Lista de temas https://tofeelmore.com/tofeelmore-podcast-musical-flotante-t5-e17-andrew-lee-farquhar/ ¡Un abrazo desde la tierra!

With Singapore formally established, we look at those first months and years. As soon as the document was signed, Raffles left the island and William Farquhar took over as First Resident. It would be hard to find a more capable person to manage what needed to get the new enterprise up and running. Taking advantage of his personal connections in Melaka and the political and technological dynamic of the time, Farquhar got the ball rolling in Singapore. The Dutch were outraged and plenty of fancy footwork and smooth talking needed to be done to avert a war. Singapore became an overnight sensation in the region. Many traders were attracted to Duty-Free trade. This was one reason the British East India Company wasn't willing to give in to the Dutch so fast. William Farquhar kept it all together and rose to the occasion at this most early period of Singapore's second incarnation. We'll look at the eyebrow-raising measures he took to turn on the government revenue taps and how this will all lead to his undoing. We also look at Farquhar's successor as First Resident, John Crawfurd. How he outfoxed The Temenggong Abdul Rahman and the Sultan Hussein Shah is also presented. We close with immigrants coming to Singapore in droves, soon outnumbering the local Malay populace. After peace with the Dutch was achieved in 1824, it was full speed ahead for Singapore. Four local entrepreneurs who also served as early community leaders are also introduced. These are Tan Tock Seng 陈笃生， Seah Eu Chin 佘有进, Naraina Pillai, and Syed Omar Al-Juneid.

Two-time Canadian Magician of the Year Shawn Farquhar discovers a murder mystery hidden in front of everyone's faces for centuries. LOST IN THE SHUFFLE brings that theory to life while documenting the genesis and execution of a card trick that explains it all for audiences in a fun and unique way. Recently we got the opportunity to sit down with Farquhar and the film's director Jon Ornoy and talk about the process, flying around the world to make this movie and, maybe most importantly, how it will entertain non-magician audiences.

We're joined by BlueClaws IF Trent Farquhar on Episode 104 of Hook Line & Splitter. The infielder from Michigan State talks about his baseball journey, his goals for the season, his promotion to the BlueClaws, growth as a player, playing for his father in high school, and much more.

VII La historia que vais a leer, con los ojos cerrados, se centra en Peyton Farquhar, un civil del Sur durante la Guerra Civil Americana, quien es capturado por las fuerzas federales y condenado a ser ahorcado en un puente. Mientras espera su ejecución, Farquhar sueña con escapar y regresar a su hogar. En el puente, es atado y preparado para ser ahorcado mientras un grupo de soldados observa. En el momento crítico, ocurre lo inexplicable. La historia refleja la brutalidad y el sufrimiento de la guerra civil americana. Farquhar anhela la libertad, pero su destino trágico subraya la fragilidad de la vida. El autor, Bierce, utiliza un lenguaje evocador y vívido para sumergir al lector en la mente de Farquhar. La revelación final, sin duda, es un giro inesperado que deja una impresión en el oyente. Ambrose Bierce, señala, cómo el tiempo puede parecer distorsionarse en momentos de crisis, de miedo, de últimos momentos de la vida, tal vez. Mostrando la mente del protagonista, Farquhar, mientras experimenta una percepción alterada del tiempo durante su ejecución y su intento de escape. La historia aborda cómo el protagonista reflexiona sobre su vida y sus seres queridos en sus últimos momentos, lo que invita a la meditación sobre la existencia y el significado de la vida. Juega con la línea entre la realidad y la fantasía. Esto lleva al lector a cuestionar qué es real y qué no. La historia se desarrolla en el contexto de la Guerra Civil Americana, reflejando la brutalidad y el caos del conflicto. Farquhar actúa motivado por su deseo de ayudar a su causa, lo que a su vez resalta las consecuencias trágicas de la guerra en la vida civil. Este relato capta la desesperación y la lucha interna del protagonista, ilustrando cómo las circunstancias extremas pueden llevar a las personas a actuar de maneras inesperadas.

Tim gets the bit (or byte?) between his teeth and rants about the 90s and the lost promise of the internet, and a little bit about cheapie TV movie Max Knight: Ultra Spy! Jen just tries to hold on as best she can! Oh yeah, and this is part one because we don't know how to shut up!You can easily tell how white your hosts are by their lack of knowledge of UPN (not the only tell, if we're being honest), which provided a home for black shows and showrunners alike. Or at least it did for a while, before a gradual whitewashing leading up to the network's merger with the WB. The Hollywood Reporter provides a post-mortem.[Former senior VP of comedy development at Paramount Pictures Television] Rose Catherine Pinkney believes the decision to merge UPN out of existence came down to ad revenue. “Ultimately, you want the most dollars that you can get for your ads,” she says. Though UPN's Black-led scripted shows (which by the end of UPN's run included Eve, All of Us, Everybody Hates Chris) were largely popular with audiences, advertisers were evidently less inclined to pay top dollar to support shows targeting Black viewers. Farquhar, co-creator of Moesha and The Parkers, recalls an advertising person saying, “We're not interested in ‘downscaled demographics.' ”They still make Tamogochis, holy shit.Can't get enough of PCMCIA cards?

“his age, and an affliction” [STOC]  The panoply of elderly individuals in the Sherlock Holmes stories is impressive: Mr. Frankland, the old crank in The Hound of the Baskervilles, the miserly Josiah Amberley in "The Retired Colourman," Old Mr. Farquhar, the previous owner of Watson's practice. But there were many others, some of whom go almost unnoticed. What similarities do we see among them? How did Conan Doyle's writing about them change over time?

Patricia Highsmith's novel The Talented Mr. Ripley follows a young man named Tom, whose deep-seated jealousy and ambition leads him down a very dark path. He wants the jet-set lifestyle his trust-fund friends are living, and he sets out to get it using his intelligence and skill at deception. Tom Ripley is a pretty realistic depiction of a psychopath. To get close to the wealthy people he envies, he puts on a convincing mask of helpful friendliness. But underneath, he's scheming with every breath—biding his time. And no one is safe around him. Join us for the story of a real-life Mr. Ripley, a man who was good at being charming, but bad at being good. A man who left one person dead, one heartbroken and defrauded, and a pretty little town in shock.

Ever wondered what it takes to pursue the kind of dreams that send shivers down your spine and put stars in your eyes? Grab your gear and join me, Lachie Stuart, as I sit down with Bradley Farquhar, the man whose dreams have him reaching for the peaks and plunging into the depths of human endurance. Bradley's narrative isn't just about ski mountaineering training in France or the aspiration to compete in the Olympics; it's a masterclass in stepping beyond comfort zones and embracing the challenges that shape our ambitions.From the sun-drenched streets of California, where he once sold alarm systems, to the freezing Alaskan wilderness of the Iditarod, Bradley's life is a testament to the power of audacious goals. We chat not just about the muscle and grit these adventures require but also the sharp business acumen and salesmanship that fuel the journey. Bradley shares how embracing sales skills can crack open the doors to dreams as vast as space travel and as grounded as personal growth and financial freedom. It's a conversation that maps out the cosmos of possibility when we harness our entrepreneurial spirit.But what's a dream without the people who believe in it? We venture into the heart of what it means to surround yourself with the right team, as Bradley recounts his underdog triumph swimming the English Channel. Amid the thrills of these tales, I share my own struggle with maintaining balance while chasing my own professional and personal goals. So, if you're ready for an electrifying mix of inspiration, determination, and the kind of advice that might just propel you to your next big leap, tune in to witness how Bradley Farquhar is a guiding light on the path to living out loud.Join SMOV TODAY Support the showJoin us in the Strong Men of Value Academyhttps://www.themanthatcanproject.comFollow Lachlan:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lachlanstuart/YouTube: https://youtube.com/@lachlanstuart91Website: https://themanthatcanproject.com/Do Something Today To Be Better For Tomorrow

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Discussion: Challenges with Unsupervised LLM Knowledge Discovery, published by Seb Farquhar on December 18, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. TL;DR: Contrast-consistent search (CCS) seemed exciting to us and we were keen to apply it. At this point, we think it is unlikely to be directly helpful for implementations of alignment strategies (>95%). Instead of finding knowledge, it seems to find the most prominent feature. We are less sure about the wider category of unsupervised consistency-based methods, but tend to think they won't be directly helpful either (70%). We've written a paper about some of our detailed experiences with it. Paper authors: Sebastian Farquhar*, Vikrant Varma*, Zac Kenton*, Johannes Gasteiger, Vlad Mikulik, and Rohin Shah. *Equal contribution, order randomised. Credences are based on a poll of Seb, Vikrant, Zac, Johannes, Rohin and show single values where we mostly agree and ranges where we disagreed. What does CCS try to do? To us, CCS represents a family of possible algorithms aiming at solving an ELK-style problem that have the steps: Knowledge-like property: write down a property that points at an LLM feature which represents the model's knowledge (or a small number of features that includes the model-knowledge-feature). Formalisation: make that property mathematically precise so you can search for features with that property in an unsupervised way. Search: find it (e.g., by optimising a formalised loss). In the case of CCS, the knowledge-like property is negation-consistency, the formalisation is a specific loss function, and the search is unsupervised learning with gradient descent on a linear + sigmoid function taking LLM activations as inputs. We were pretty excited about this. We especially liked that the approach is not supervised. Conceptually, supervising ELK seems really hard: it is too easy to confuse what you know, what you think the model knows, and what it actually knows. Avoiding the need to write down what-the-model-knows labels seems like a great goal. Why we think CCS isn't working We spent a lot of time playing with CCS and trying to make it work well enough to build a deception detector by measuring the difference between elicited model's knowledge and stated claims.[1] Having done this, we are now not very optimistic about CCS or things like it. Partly, this is because the loss itself doesn't give much reason to think that it would be able to find a knowledge-like property and empirically it seems to find whatever feature in the dataset happens to be most prominent, which is very prompt-sensitive. Maybe something building off it could work in the future, but we don't think anything about CCS provides evidence that it would be likely to. As a result, we have basically returned to our priors about the difficulty of ELK, which are something between "very very difficult" and "approximately impossible" for a full solution, while mostly agreeing that partial solutions are "hard but possible". What does the CCS loss say? The CCS approach is motivated like this: we don't know that much about the model's knowledge, but probably it follows basic consistency properties. For example, it probably has something like Bayesian credences and when it believes A with some probability PA, it ought to believe A with probability 1PA.[2] So if we search in the LLM's feature space for features that satisfy this consistency property, the model's knowledge is going to be one of the things that satisfies it. Moreover, they hypothesise, there probably aren't that many things that satisfy this property, so we can easily check the handful that we get and find the one representing the model's knowledge. When we dig into the CCS loss, it isn't clear that it really checks for what it's supposed to. In particular, we prove that arbitrary features, not jus...

This is a different approach. We've got Nick Farquhar. He is the CEO of a company called Appreciate. You can find them online, appreciate.io. They describe themselves as a tech-enabled property management. And one of the first questions I asked Nick was, "what does it mean to be tech-enabled property management?" You got to listen to this one. Appreciate gets into the data, their approach is a little different than others with educating their clients—helping them make sure that they get all the tax advantages they deserve. And they have a unique revenue model in that they don't charge turnover fees and they don't upcharge on maintenance. It's very interesting. Let's jump in and hear what Nick has to say.More about Nick and Appreciate Connect with with Nick on LinkedIn Follow Appreciate on Twitter Check out Appreciate

We have this additional burden of Brexit here in the UK. Every part of the world that we've been speaking to, people are thinking about deglobalization relocalization and how that's going to just make things a bit more secure, a bit less dependent on other areas.”“In most climates, that really does mean having to move stuff that you can move economically and environmentally indoors, and that's tougher in some places than others, but I think it's causing everyone to look much more seriously at the viability of indoor ag in general, whether that's aquaculture or livestock.”“Our covenant is that we're a tech vendor, you guys are the farmers, you're the growers, you know how to do this stuff.

Hello everyone and welcome to Episode Seventy Seven!  And I hope you all remain safe and healthy out there, and I want to wish all of you a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year. It's the first week of February and it's good to be back home and to be turning out another episode, after being away for nearly a month in Peru.  It was an interesting trip, to say the least, with a lot of travel issues going both down and back.  I'll spare you the details, but I am beginning to suspect that the golden age of air travel is behind us.  All travel issues aside it was a great trip to Peru, and across 25 days and two back-to-back tour groups we managed to find a total of six bushmasters.  Pretty incredible and I'm still processing all of that.  Needless to say, I recorded segments with some of the folks who encountered their first bushmaster, and I will put that out sometime in the next few months. So Much Pingle Patrons!  I want to give a shout-out to Craig Howard, the show's newest patron.  Craig was on our first Peru tour last month and he took some awesome photos, I especially liked some of his frog shots.  It was good to meet you Craig, and thanks so much for your support. And if you're out there listening and you would like to kick in a few bucks, it's easy to do, you simply go to the So Much Pingle Patreon page. You can support the show for as little as three bucks a month – less than a fancy cup of coffee! You can also support the show via one-time contributions via PayPal or Venmo (please contact me via email to somuchpingle@gmail.com). Well, here we are again with another edition of Herp Science Sunday with Dr. Alex Krohn.  That's right, two in a row, even if they are a month apart, and, this one again features a guest from Australia.  As I said before, this is more by accident than design, but Alex and I are happy about it and we hope you are as well.  Our guest this week is Jules Farquhar, a doctoral candidate in the School of Biological Sciences at Monash University in Victoria, Australia.  Jules is a co-author on a paper published in the Journal of Biogeography last year entitled “Using Crowd-sourced Photographic Records to Explore Geographical Variation in Colour Polymorphism” Alex and I talked with Jules just before Christmas, about this paper, which concerns Lace Monitors, and we cover some other cool Australian herp stuff as well. Thanks for listening everyone! And as always, please keep the comments and suggestions coming, and please take time to rate the show on your podcast platform! The show email is somuchpingle@gmail.com, and there's also a So Much Pingle group on Facebook, for discussion, comments, feedback, suggestions, herp confessions, baby monitors to watch baby monitors, tips for herping better, etc. -Mike
