@TheBreadmonkey I expect there will be much cynicism about this story, but it's all true, Beyonce was telling me about it on our Skype call last night.
"Ambitious but half-baked" is pretty much how I would describe most, if not all, AI products

The For You Page has cannibalized the feed, and what’s left are big viral moments, your private DMs, and the hollow middle.
A social media manager’s perspective on how the social internet works now, and to think about getting attention online, from Rachel Karten.
Cereal ports, for connecting a hull modem cable with the correct pin-oat. Beware wiring quality or you could end up with croptalk and bad seednal propagation.
Some setups could do with a germinating resistor pack.
I’ll delete this if you pay me.
Pay more and I might apologise too.

Screw AI. If I want to know something then I will learn it the old fashioned way, by staring at the tree of wisdom until it grants me the ancient knowledge I seek. I hope today's Low Quality Ad, the PlantPico Tree of Wisdom, provides you answers to all of life's most mysterious mysteries.

the internet sucks
I use a VPN because ISPs can now monitor what we do and sell the resulting data. Plus I've had ISPs kill media streams because they can.
But because I use a VPN, email providers, work systems, banks all act like I'm a cybercriminal. I'm lucky if I only have to deal with a CAPTCHA. Worse yet, I often get emails throttled, or my connection is simply blocked.
thanks, internet
“The iron harvest (French: récolte de fer) is the annual collection of unexploded ordnance, barbed wire, shrapnel, bullets and congruent trench supports collected by Belgian and French farmers after ploughing their fields. The harvest generally consists of material from the former western fronts of the First and Second World wars, where it is still found in large quantities.”
@lambda @neilmadden I wouldn't ever describe what happens as a "anonymous storage cell" because it doesn't fit the way i think about Rust code, so let me try explain how i see it, maybe it helps:
if you do let s = 2; you have just the value 2. passing around s to functions etc happens by copy, since integers implement the Copy trait. If you instead do let s = &mut 2; you now have a reference that allowes mutation of 2. we sometimes call that a "mut(able) reference", which is a bit unclear as it could also mean the reference itself is mutable. But in fact its the value its referencing thats mutably borrowed. The let binding doesn't need to be mutable, as that would mean you want to modify its value, which is the reference. If you wanted to do s = <new val>, you'd need a let mut s. But you do *s = <new val> so you don't actually ever modify s, inly whats behind the reference. Most of the time, when i already have a &mut, where the value actually lives is only relevant on the exact line i take the &mut, since rusts borrow checker ensures exclusive access.
I can definitely understand how coming from C brings up these kinds of questions, but i find it neat i don't have to care that deeply.
It'll probably optimize to just let s = &mut 3; anyways.
We were likely going to be able to release experimental Pixel 10 support very soon and it's getting disrupted. The attacks on our team with ongoing libel and harassment have escalated, raids on our chat rooms have escalated and more. It's rough right now and support is appreciated.
France isn't a safe country for open source privacy projects. They expect backdoors in encryption and for device access too. Secure devices and services are not going to be allowed. We don't feel safe using OVH for even a static website with servers in Canada/US via their Canada/US subsidiaries.

What I don’t understand is how someone can write a biography (granted: only a couple of printed pages) of Charles Darwin without mentioning the single most inspirational thing he ever wrote:
“But I am very poorly today & very stupid & I hate everybody & everything. One lives only to make blunders.”
Gives the rest of us hope.
