to accelerate open-source innovation in the energy sector
Translation: "Please someone invent some magic gizmo to undo global warming. We might even throw many monies at you. Just come up with any solution to the climate crisis that doesn't involve burning less oil."
The abstract concept of rolling coal announces partnership with Thomas Midgley Jr. to promote environmentally sustainable transportation.
Literal cringe. This non-figuratively annoys me to the point I involuntarily wince in displeasure.
Oversimplified edgelord's guide to building an actual DnD litch/KKK style death cult for the ultimate nefarious purpose of… what? Getting to feel cool for once in your life or whatever? There are less embarrassing ways to boost your self esteem you know?
I like hooded cloaks, wavy ceremonial daggers and pretend wizard shit as much as the next person but I've come to despise all kinds of sincere SEKRIT KLUB type shit from student fraternities to even more nazi possibly student fraternities. It always feels like egomaniacal autofellatio for everyone involved.
At least wait until you're old enough to have a midlife crisis, maybe at that point joining masons/shriners/rotaries/lions seems more age-appropriate.
I can't read in in a way that doesn't sound at least 7/10 fashy.
what test score does that correspond to?
I dunno, let's ask someone who peer reviewed it.
I agree and don't think the cover itself is objectionable. Covers and remixes are a valuable and essential part of musical tradition and this is a good piece of art even though it's derived from the work of Yuzuki Ryōka and SOAD without approval.
The "plagiarism machines" part is about the way machine learning companies use unpaid and underpaid labor of millions and pass that off as the work of a quasi-sentient machine, often with the explicit aim of replacing the countless creative workers whose work was used to build the mashup machine. I think I'm actually pretty anti-copyright but at least the rules should also apply when it's a tech corp cribbing from masses of proles.
A cartoon cat singing a nu-metal song about ADHD while sounding like Marianne Faithfull with a cold is the least we deserve in return.
my mental netcode
That not only sounds like robot LARP but a gamer attempting to talk like a programmer. I haven't heard the word "netcode" used outside of video games context and even taking it as a metaphor for an aspect of human decision making, it shouldn't be responsible for determining the agency of someone's behavior.
It's a good documentary, though slightly sensationalized at times and pretty light on detail of TempleOS itself. An accessible introduction for those previously unfamiliar with Davis and TempleOS.
Much is made of the admittedly impressive achievement of Terry creating an OS from scratch in the first place, which unfortunately tends to distract from the interesting features of TempleOS itself. Feel free to discuss the HolyC compiler and its integration to the system, the pervasive hypertext allowing embedded media even in HolyC source code, the editor providing modal views of said hypertext in rich and plain form, the online documentation system including a surprisingly helpful (if somewhat incomplete) tutorial and the dry humor popping up in some places such as having a category of "unfun games" included with the distribution.
As much as I hate handing it to the plagiarism machines, that Neco Arc track is a banger.
The power here is supposedly that no authority can override your desires on your plunder system because it will eventually be a frozen spec, and so virtual machine runtime implementations that are correct must run any program from any time after the freeze. That means a vm I make today will run programs a thousand years from now (probably inefficiently) and a vm created in a thousand years must run programs from today. Theoretically speaking.
Yes that's what a spec means. Like wow I can write puts("Hello, world!") and it does the same thing on every ANSI C compiler, how novel!
I just wanna buy computer hardware for a reasonable amount of money, man. Can't I try a video game from the current decade for once in my life?
If promptfans love ASICs so much, why not go commit corporate espionage at Broadcom and leak their networking chips' firmware sources (in Uplink the video game).
