I don't understand the page, it shows a list of data sets (I think?) up to 91 TiB in size The list of short links and their target URLs can't be 91 TiB in size can it? Does anyone know how this works?

It actually looks somewhat regular instead of random in the end. Perhaps having only rule 6 and 3, no others, is interesting. Or 6, 3 and 1. Or only rule 3 and take solution with highest entropy

I'm not sure how it's for others, but for me there was a perception issue with java applets on the web in the mid 2000s: Java applets loading on a website started as a gray rectangle, which loaded very slowly, and sometimes failed

I'd love it if there was someone with tetrachromacy who also knows a bit about color theory and perception and can talk about it! How do you describe the experience scientifically? Do you get a whole bunch of extra colors you'd wa

I do hope intel comes back, while I prefer AMD currently (due to no avx512 on intel consumer cpus and me not being interested in having things scheduled on efficiency cores in my desktop pc), if there's no competition anymore who knows

In Dutch the word "miljard" for 10^9 is too well known and deeply ingrained to change I think, but with "triljoen" which could either mean 10^18 or a direct conversion from the American English trillion, all bets are off
