"Rarest" Nintendo Famicom Game Found In US Retro Store For $12.

I wrote an op-ed on the world-class STEM research ecosystem in the United States, and how this ecosystem is now under attack on multiple fronts by the current administration: newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-awar...

“Agent of the government empowered to use violence in its name to enforce its laws” is a pretty old invention, actually. This is what I’m talking about, this is just like magical thinking: you need *someone* to maintain and exercise the state’s monopoly on force. It’s literally unavoidable, sorry!

I dislike self-deprecating humour. While it can appear humble, it often masks self-hatred. Over time, it fosters complacency and a mindset of being inadequate, rather than encouraging action and growth.

@aubreyliang.bsky.social Hey Aubrey, I noticed you deleted your Discord yesterday, everything okay with you? Is there another way I could contact you privately?

It was @beepboopbork.com's birthday recently so it's time for its yearly update :3 I'm helping and i'm gonna try and not trip on all the wires...

Just finished @danabra.mov's Just JavaScript course after procrastinating on it for a while. Awesome course, highly recommended.

So, I was skimming through the JavaScript edition of SICP, and I found this monstrosity. This is not idiomatic JavaScript in any way, and seems to be a direct translation from the original Scheme which used S-expressions.

Stefan Zweig on borders is almost too much to bear

We don’t need misleading charts to show that housing is in crisis. The truth is absolutely enough. Use real wages, mortgage data, and a time-constant metric of work: Hours. Clean code, real data, honest storytelling. That is how messaging needs to be done.

This is one of the most econ things ive ever seen (laudatory)

This code is secured by algebraic data types

This is going around for some reason, just gonna point out that many studies have been done about porn addiction, held by researchers who believed in porn addiction, only to find that porn addiction is not real and never was. Turns out it was religion. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/wome...

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

I am SO, SO SORRY

Every time you share the “3 Bs in blueberry thing” and no one explains its relation to tokenizers, you help everyone get just a tiny bit less informed

Trying to write documentation to explain the interaction between package.json's 'type' field, tsconfig.json's 'module' field, file extension, and import syntax

i have been developing a theory of things lately and it's called "big number scary" not saying it has to be a trend or new, just new to my personal thinking: every time i see a big number now, without contextualizing it, i wonder if someone is trying to use big number scary on me

Please stop doing this

the corollary of "cryptography turns a security problem into a key management problem" is that if you can solve key management, you've solved security

wait a sec I keep getting tons of replies saying generative ai is useless, how could this be true? www.bbc.com/news/article...

the answer to the mystery here is that the mainstream games industry does not select for or even permit the existence or development of real talent, so of course outsiders are gonna blow AAA shit out of the water

Big. Valve just stated “one of PayPal’s acquiring banks decided to stop processing any Steam transactions” due to content “related to what we’ve previously commented on surrounding Mastercard” Time to start calling paypros’ banks www.rockpapershotgun.com/valve-explai...

i think we have an excess of cautionary tales and we should stop writing them. they don't work anyway.

starting to worry that some of u don't understand that reading genre fiction is distinct from having precognition

A lot of people in OP’s replies and quotes are backing up his stance by appealing to works of fiction. The thing about fiction is that it’s not real and you can make it say whatever you want.

This new diffuser I printed and it’s wayyyyyy better. No more bleed About 1mm of white and then black all the way down.

I genuinely think before anyone joins social media for the first time they should be required to read a thread from 4chan demonstrating how quickly a bunch of strangers can track down your physical location by comparing the tile in the background of your selfies to a 6-year old google earth image

PSA: If you see anyone using a piece of software called "Akkoma" - Run! They are not to be trusted and are likely to be doing deeds of the antichrist.

Not at all close. Novel-length plots are very hard. There has been a consistent, odd, overreaction on this.

Who else got their T-shirt?

There is some confusion about whether or not we understand LLMs. The answer is yes and no, but mostly no. It's a complicated enough question that it seemed like it needed an article. www.verysane.ai/p/do-we-unde...
