We have a “don’t get the slack subpoenaed” emoji that gets frequent use. Incidentally, a lawyer doing discovery in the future could just search for uses of that emoji to find what they’re looking for.

Oh wow, I did "someone who keeps saying slurs" and there really is no filter:

e: Converting back from output like this to LinkedIn Speak also returns some... illuminating results about the underlying models.

Definitely not all contractors, my company at the very least used to have a contract with ICE and isn’t listed.

The same reason we give beginner math students addition and subtraction problems, not Fermat’s last theorem?

There has to be a base of knowledge available before the student can even comprehend many/most open research questions, let alone begin to solve them. And if they were understandable to a beginner, then I’d posit the LLM models available today would also be capable of doing meaningful work.

12/32 SR71s were lost in the 33 years they were flying. 11/200 MD-11s have been hull-lost from 1988-2025. Not to mention that passenger/cargo planes will put on a lot more flight hours than the SR71s did in a given year.

I don't have any nim experience (sorry!) but I'm also exploring SDL3 with odin. I was able to get a naive battleship clone up and working very quickly, pretty neat. Next step is the new SDL3 GPU API.

The headers A-L are links to the problem PDFs if you want to see.

I'd agree except for the ability to search in an e-book. There's nothing worse than knowing the textbook in front of you contains the answer you need but not remembering which of the 1500 pages contains it. Being able to CTRL-F saved me hours of time when I went back to school after e-books became common.

https://github.com/lerna/lerna/issues/3121. It looks like maintenance of lerna is being passed to the company behind nx. They promise continued support of lerna, but who knows what the future will bring.

Not a big surprise, especially after having spoken to a few people that have worked at Zynga before. High turnover of employees, quality over quantity, etc. Can't say I'll miss their products or their techniques.
