Anna’s came clutch for me yesterday. I spent a few days trying to find a zip file of a CD that came with an old book from early 2000s on programming. One of those Thomson Publishing slap jobs that I actually enjoyed. I checked used copies all of them said does not come with CD. I tried googling around, nothing. LLMs couldn’t find it. ChatGPT kept saying it is on the archive (no it isn’t you useless piece of shit). Anyway, on a whim I went to AA, lo and behold, zip files for both first and second edition. Godsend.

- ornornor 3mo agoConsider putting them on archive.org then, they have a section for that and it helps spread sources
- tangenter 3mo agoGood idea. I’ll see when one of the used copies I got comes with a CD so I can provide the actual .iso image.
