Wow you’re right, he’s the author of the infamous “is-odd” and “is-even” packages. What an odd person.
Someone in the OP PR mentioned the amount of energy used to download these tiny packages and its actually something crazy to think about

The paper doesn’t use psuedocode as I know it. In my experience pseudocode looks much more similar to real code. (According to Wikipedia I’m more used to mathematical pseudocode)
I’ve never been a fan because writing some simplified Python seems better. Or even better, writing Python that doesn’t necessarily follow every syntax rule to a T and takes liberties where necessary to improve readability
CTO of my company was up at 1am this morning in the chats. Pray for the IT department
I have concerns about the success of this platform. I am convinced what makes TikTok great isn’t necessarily the algorithm (its good, no doubt) but the volume of content. There are so many users producing content that the amount of content you find enjoyable is always more than you could scroll through in a day.
A platform like this will be boring pretty fast when you scroll through the 100 new videos uploaded that day in an single hour, and you skip many of them. It’s tough to generate enough content without enough users, and most of the content will likely just be aggregated from the other short-form sites. Of course that’s not necessarily a bad thing, it’s a more privacy-friendly way to browse that content, which is a plus.
Also, not particularly a fan of more brain-rotting short form content. It’s crazy how addictive it is and I’m wanting less, not more. But if I had to choose a “shorts” platform I’d sure like a federated, free one to be the one to succeed. But it’s got a long way to go
I spend less than an hour a day, usually. I end up scrolling past a lot of the posts because they don’t interest me and are more long form content, but I like to catch up on the memes and cats
I actually disagree on this one. The show made such bizarre choices and had unrealistic scenarios, it took me out of the story. I actually read the book because I was watching the series and was so confused by some of the story beats that I was convinced the book would explain the reasoning behind them.
Ended up just being mad at the series for not following the book more closely. The changes to the Prophet are just wild - taking a pedophile and making him a protagonist is just a poor choice, from my perspective… Even if you write out the pedophilia why you gotta make him have an army of kids?
One thing that always stuck out to me about the book is the introduction of certain editions. The author writes about himself researching the history of the country the story takes place in and describes it as real, saying he took his son to a museum with Inigo’s sword and everything.
I was Googling furiously when I read it because I was so confused. I was astounded that the place (and people) was “real”. It took a bit of research to find that the author just does this bit and hasn’t let it go since he wrote the book
I’m still so charmed that he tricked me. It made reading the book that much sillier, for me
The US has a lot of bullshit in their labeling requirements. My wife studied food science in university and some of her biggest complaints are:
The most egregious example I’ve seen lately was a jar of pickles I bought where the serving size is 1/3 of a pickle (now the website says 1/2). That’s just so that the sodium doesn’t get out of control and, in all likelihood, because an entire pickle may be more than the 5 Calories allowed to say it’s “0 Calories”.
*This is changing, slowly. Manufacturers now have to put servings for the entire container if it’s small enough
Meh. Nothing crazy in this one. Some nice stuff but not nearly as significant as the last set
“Do you think fighting can be part of a healthy relationship?”
My wife and I rarely fight, we’ve maybe had two or three in our entire relationship, and they weren’t yelling matches We just got upset and patched things up relatively quickly. I don’t think I could be with someone who thinks raising their voice at another person is okay, and surely not if they think it can be healthy. And hard “hell no” to any violence.
So, this is a weedout question
Awesome stuff! I really like the agility improvements and Mage Arena changes especially
A change was made in 16.1.0 to allow users to reset their password through a secondary email address. The vulnerability is a result of a bug in the email verification process. The bug has been fixed with this patch, and as mentioned above, we have implemented a number of preventive security measures to protect customers.
Struggling to figure out what the heck they did. Some kind of injection attack to send the email to an arbitrary account? How would you even mess that up in the first place
Winter is the same, although it can be noticeably more difficult to recover if your pattern gets disrupted for any reason. So for that I use a light that simulates sunrise
Between 9 and 10pm most nights
No one seems to have said it yet, but consistency. Waking up at the same time every day including weekends. Eventually, you just wake up early naturally. I get up at 5:30 am every day on the dot with zero alarm just because it’s when I wake up. And I’m never groggy, because I’ve adapted to it. It’s not early anymore it’s just when I wake up
I think the second half to this is that it can’t be a chore. You have to want to wake up. If you wake up and think about how much you hate being awake it will be all the harder
Unciv is a Civ 5 remake with simplified graphics. Its a lot of fun but the AI is brutal.
My guess is that it has something to do with the image where you can clearly see a tag? But I can’t read what it says
Cecily Smith by Will Connolly is just some bonus track from a musical I’ve never seen or heard but every time I hear it I almost weep.
I love my wife very much and the core concept of “life isn’t about the things that we do it’s who we are doing them with” is a core ethos to my life, so the song is personally very relatable.
I like Pitch Meeting because he’s excellent at pointing out plot holes, of which there are many, and isn’t quite so nitpicky as Cinema Sins
Oh my lord that’s good
