Actual hot take: I think The Giving Tree is a really good way to identify how someone views the purpose of kid lit, including oneself. If you think it's horrible, it's likely you believe the role of children's literature is model good behavior and identify bad behavior.

I am a rando guy yes, but this seems somewhat tangent to my pretty simple numbers I present in my blog all quoted from recognized authorities like the LBNL. Nowhere do I claim to have discovered anything new about data centers. This is oddly credentialist.

World of Dungeons is a PBTA game with only one move. While this is a great example of minimalism, it seems to lose a bunch of value from not having any specific moves with worked examples of partial success

Small follow-up on this: After subtitle headers exposed Crunchyroll's use of AI service Ollang for dub closed captions, a lot of episodes were released with manually "scrubbed" subtitle headers like this. Most likely an order came from above about it, giving further credence to Ollang use being real

So I had a video I had legitimately bought on iTunes. Tried to watch it, but I can't. Some DRM bullshit means the file can't be used without Apple's ongoing consent. So I pirated it. Because that's the only way to actually get media that works

I'm also a bit anxious about a Jevon's paradox situation. I.e Code is cheaper, so we make and use more of it, which is likely to lead to more issues. Most of the cost of systems is in maintenance not build. We will see, if it was going to have a huge impact we should be seeing it.
