The word count variable is an intmax_t, so assuming ISO C (it's GNU so probably not but whatever) it has to be at least C99 and thus support at least 64 bit long long.
Looking forward to the nine quintillion word LW posts. Wonder if I should submit a patch to make wc(1) use GMP for future proofing purposes…
Imagine one day Dan Gackle of Hacker News fame banned the Linus Tech Tips guy for sockpuppeting but actually you were the sockpuppet. Also suppose Terry A. Davis were still alive so you went to ask him how to sockpuppet like a veteran, but instead you run into Timnit Gebru, who is also a terrorist. She calls you pronouns and slurs like TESCREAL and your pants drop to your ankles and everyone is laughing at you and also Terry calls you the N word because you don't know how to write a compiler. Then you turn around and see Scott Siskind and Joanne Rowling and they're also laughing at you and you start to cry.
Anyway you'd be really upset.
There once was a bot named Sydney
Who'd tell me how to poison a kidney

I were under duress
Or my enemies wouldn't outbid me
I'm proud of them for independently discovering the idea of "insincere apology". Not to brag but I discovered this idea as a preteen. While the technique per se failed to prove itself as useful as I had expected, it proved a useful intermediate step in developing a more sophisticated model of other people as actual moral and social agents who could not always be fooled by magic incantations. On the other hand, I took inspiration from my peers to mold the crude form of insincere apology into a sarcastic tool for exhibiting disrespect towards contemptible people.
Deepest apologies to any rationalists who find my deliberate and unrepentant condescension towards them objectionable. I pwomise weally hawd not to do it again. 🥺
Dude has so many modern fashies of note in his [oU]rbit.
Both this new dumb shit and the extinction risk are predicated on the concept of omnipotent AI, which he just takes as a given. Now with just an added layer of dumb. Oh no, the God AI will not kill me outright, just subject me to inscrutable matrices of bureaucracy!
I'm just assuming it was in fact just a ridiculous take from a child throwing a tantrum because it makes the whole "I'm not a nazi, BUT…" bit that much more unprompted and funnier.
Like I know famous people get all kinds of bizarre shit on the internet but if some rando DM'd to call me a nazi I would simply choose not to let the public know I actually just love white culture.
It's strange that someone can sound so much like they spent their late 20s binging Carl Benjamin videos yet be unaware of empires predating the Persian one.
You have a moral obligation to donate your excess academic fame and credibility to younger women willing to fuck you, if it is within your means.
Please note that empires were actually invented by A Brown, of whom I think fondly every day. Therefore I am not a nazi.
Took the word from my mouth. Even if the performance is as good as the real thing, why would you want a fake Carlin over equally good genuine Not-Carlin?
At best it's a good comedy show with a morally dubious deepfake gimmick. You'd think the novelty value of hologram 2Pac had faded a bit by now.
