For curiosity’s sake, what were these things referred to historically and informally?

The system is useful for many reasons, not the least of which that it provides an easy way to avoid war crimes (which hurt the war effort via bad PR in partner countries). They award units 10x as many points (which can be redeemed for drones, HIMARS strikes, etc) for a capture than they do for a kill.

I have a friend who got laid off and had that happen.

> it doesn't work on our giant spaghetti code monstrosity cludged together in a million terrible ways

That is so so so much software. Further, AI loves to make this kind of software.

> In the pass two month barely can do any good scientific writing lately, which of course rely on reasoning. It just writing for gods sake

Honestly, I think this is a really cool sentence. Imagine going back to 2021 and telling someone this was a legitimate complaint about a pretty cheap and very prevalent technology in 2026.

Of course they interact, but to my knowledge this interaction is not meaningful when discussing biological functions.

I have to ask: do you still write a lot of code yourself? I and most people I know do not.

I know of (and briefly worked at!) a small one; truly unheard of benefits and very good compensation package.

I wonder of there is a version of this but for jobs?

Wouldn’t a wrench work just as well?

We have humans writing code using prompts. We have interpreters generating byte code that is placed in the JVM. I don’t think it’s obtuse to look at it this way.

Almost all ways of creating programs are effectively just using tools to produce code. Compiling, transpiling, interpreting byte code, etc.

This is very interesting. Combating resellers and distillation seems like a very difficult problem indeed. Interesting to me is that these techniques mentioned in the article are just like anti-observation techniques used by some of the more sophisticated malware out there, however defeating them is pretty trivial.

Are you talking about that rock art sculpture in the southern United States? I really think you’re giving the system too much credit if you believe there is such a grand plan

Not everything needs to “scale.” I think needing scale is relatively rare, actually.

I’ve heard of “blue suiters” for air force brass, but never blue badgers.

Anyways, isn’t NSA one of the largest employers of mathematicians in the world? Surely they’re doing something useful.

Note that 200 dollars of value is different than 200 dollars of profit.

This is in contrast to American models which receive _ridiculous_ levels of private subsidy.

Probably 401 (k) plans for the most part.
