There isn't much money in journalism any more, and, hopefully, it will allow us to dump some of the keyboard-bashing monkeys whilst maintaining a constant level of output.

swimming with dolphins
I wanna participate in a porpoise beatdown with dolphins. Or perhaps even a dolphin beatdown. Or one of their beautiful, mysterious shun-and-mockeries-to-suicide. Oh, the wonders of the ocean.

Ooh, I never thought of including a Vaporeon in the mix. I mean, both are equally unlikely to be accomplished, but technically dolphins are more attainable IRL. 😜

@Tsaukpaetra Not that pasta.

Why? You have no idea how unsatisfying it tastes unless you tried.
(And it's not disgustingly horrible like some other things you could use to refute the above.)

@topspin A few years ago I had a risotto with Brussels sprouts which was surprisingly good.

I am not worried about constant level of output. I am worried about rising level of output.

Steamed brussels sprouts kept warm in a greasy oil bath used to be one of the consistent low points at one of the work cantinas. Even the colleague that on principle always ate everything would nope out of that one.

@BernieTheBernie I'm listen to a podcast and a lawyer give chatgpt the exam for passing the bar. It got about 50% but the passing grade is 68%. the interesting thing in the podcast though was the law professor gave it his exam questions. Something he makes up on the spot before the deadline for them. chatgpt would have gotten a solid B or C in most of them. Not much innovation but few students do.
It's quite damning.

These days I like sprouts even simply boiled, so long as they're not overcooked. 5 minutes at boiling is quite enough.

I would gladly give up Brussels sprouts if it also resulted in the end of Brussels.

Eww! I used to steam Brussels sprouts, but now I much prefer roasting them with broccoli, cauliflower, red bell pepper, garlic, spicy sausage, ... See the cooking thread for more info.

In other news, Brussels' sprouts seem to have made a insurgence in the news...

Yes, but most of the chimps are automated.

At some point, the US Army was testing AI monitoring systems and used Marines to help build the algorithms and then test the AI against their cunning. The Marines always won. All eight of them tried out different tactics to get to the AI system in the middle of a traffic circle, and two of them took a page from Solid Snake, crawling under a cardboard box and advancing their way toward the goal. The AI, which was trained to recognize a walking soldier, not a moving cardboard box, completely ignored them, allowing them to approach (giggling the entire time) until they touched it and won the round. Other soldiers did somersaults or dressed like a tree and succeeded.

Yes, including Apple's. The point of the article is that now — even if you aren't using any cloud services or anything that involves network traffic — Macs are sending locally-stored files to Apple.

The
is definitely on the developers' side. It has been established for some time that Intrusion Detection System that looks for specific things to detect is useless and all current ones work by detecting anomalies.

@Kamil-Podlesak you expect developers to learn from history or do research?

First of all, that was in Australia. So the French can have it.
Second of all, that frog is poisonous. So I doubt the French really want it.

So from something that is 200KB in size and takes 1ms to start into something that is 300MB in size, downloads updates everytime you run it, and takes forever to start?
