I decided to start blocking the people posting them. It turns out, it was literally one user making it a spam problem. I blocked one or two more on principle and haven’t seen a moth meme since.

Writing is a rare form of communication, borderline unique to humans. Because of that, to me, it’s fundamentally unethical to have “AI” “write” anything. It’s insulting to me on a base level, particularly when used for communication.

It’s called a natural disaster and we get along just fine. If the entire planet loses power, there’s nothing to be done, but even if an entire US state loses power, gas generators come online and trucks haul fuel in from long distances. It doesn’t take long for a grocery store or bank to open up with cash withdrawals again.

Hammock camping! My last trip was my first time sleeping in a hammock and it was a revelation.

I’m as anti “AI” as they come but there’s a master Japanese carpenter on YouTube, Shoyan, who goes through the trouble of translating his commentary to English, someone proofs it because the grammar is usually perfect, and then runs it through a comforting racially ambiguous old man voice from ElevenLabs I think. And honestly? It works really well. It’s obviously not a natural voice but it’s not fake enough to be disorienting or annoying like the early types were.

On the one hand yes. But, and this is a big but, typically when ships are sunk by the government, a lot of environmental impact studies and decontamination processes are preformed. The goal is usually to create artificial reefs, which is pretty useful because of how much damage we’ve done to the natural habitats.

Does it balance out, or make up for it? I don’t know, I’m not smart enough. But I do know the artificial reef projects are greatly appreciated and highly desired by local governments.

Hell yes! That was the point of my rambling though I never quite got there. I was wondering if curriculums had caught up yet, to at least look at the modern system languages. Sounds like you’re at a good program.

If Rust had been around when I was an underclassman, I would have been totally locked into the full CompSci track. Instead, I got introduced to Java and C (and calculus…) and that looked like a nightmare compared to what I had been playing with in JS/Python land, so I noped on out of there and got a Comp Sci Lite degree.

Years later, I’m just completely in love with Rust.

It’s not a fucking reveal, Kagi tells you exactly what engines they include in their results.
