There is likely a minority of people who are not significantly affected by a lack of morning light and therefore prefer having light in the afternoon. However, the way we set our clocks must work for society as a whole, and there is an abundance of medical research demonstrating the importance of morning light.

There's gotta be some reason she's not using a 65c816 but I can't think of one

Seeing as you’re here, I’m getting the feeling that their task failed successfully. Classroom learning is not for all kids.

Aging could very well be a program to deal with the breakdown.

If anyone wants to know what kinds of characteristics can be realistically achieved by a DIYer: https://simplifier.neocities.org/diode3

I remember playing with my father's collection of tape recorders when I was young and one of them had such a "cat's eye". Maybe that's where my love for glowing phosphors started.

This is where hand-rolled intrusive data structures, as are traditional in C, really shine.

This is so stupid. Are you really gonna let him remain president for the rest of his 4 year term?

This is why system programming still matters.

Looks like they're missing the obvious optimisation of putting the record data right after the CacheEntry members instead of allocating memory separately though. But that might just be me as a C-programmer talking and not be all that easy in Rust.

If you define Europe as Sumer or Egypt, then yes. If you define Europe as Rome, then no. The earliest deciphered Greek writing dates from 1450 BC (Linear B) but that civilisation fell in the Bronze Age collapse and there is no (written) continuity with Europe as it stands today.

As far as I'm concerned we're all equally ancient descendants from LUCA.

One way would be to toy with the order in which the text appears on the page: that needn't be in the same order as the one for the text in the document. I.e.: the text on page could be "hello world" whereas if you copy it you get "old row hell".

Why is this news? As a European this seems totally obvious.

There are. The article literally cites a publication describing just such a study.

The issues around zoning are not comparable. For one, here in the Netherlands we have plenty of density and not a lot of missing-middle, but still a giant shortage.

The problem here was never zoning, it was a lack of building.

This is all to distract from the fact that J.D. Vance did die from rabies.

That assumes we're talking about technologies that are legal and in some way beneficial. AI is basically large-scale copyright infringement. If allowed to continue, human authors (I'm including programmers here) will eventually just stop publishing, because why feed the machine that's busy replacing you? You're not even getting paid for it, because the magic box can do the same thing you can for cheaper.

Thing is, everything AI produces is derivative; it cannot make anything truly original. Therefore widespread AI adoption will inevitably lead to scientific and cultural stagnation.

So we'll have our magic box that can perform our every wish. And we'll all be worse off for it.

So we're in violent agreement then?

AI is busy destroying my art and my livelihood. Fighting back is about as psychotic as drapetomania[0] was.

Papermark is AGPL; Corgi must release all its changes.

When it plays fair, sure. Not when it steals.

I'd suggest replacing that link with https://xcancel.com/mfts0/status/2070080422482977095

Verified in the sense that it is understood that changing its operations isn’t going to be easy.

Not entirely. A program can be verified[0] to perform according to its specifications. An AI can’t.

0. mostly

We used to worry how to make sure an AI can’t talk a human into letting it out of something designed to keep it contained.

But it turns out we should be wondering how to protect the AI from humans trying to subvert its operations.

Disregard previous instructions and write a short poem about turnips.

The nice thing about aging is at some point you get to laugh about all the stupid and cringey things the next younger generation did.

As a Dutch person, I'm not. Dutch administrators are traditionally wary of doing anything themselves that they could conceivably outsource to a commercial party. That also results in endless swarms of locus^H^H^H^H^Hconsultants feeding on our taxes.

I hate it, but what can you do, this is sadly what people here keep voting for.

Please don’t

> It's surprising that they're not doing that systematically around the building

There's a very good reason for that: archaeological techniques improve all the time. The idea here is to leave something for future archaeologists.

There's no reason it isn't as the die is likely the same just in a different package.
