Reminds me of Steven Millhauser's story _The Knife Thrower_. The titular knife thrower deliberately scars his assistant and audience members before pushing the act to the extreme to satiate the demands of the crowd.

Yep. Look at the failure of terror bombing campaigns. Rather than demoralizing civilian populations, it hardens their resolve to fight from London to Kyiv.

It's baffling that the writer either overlooked or ignored this. Collective punishment transfers the cost of enforcement from the ruler to the ruled. We don't need florid nonsense[0] or baby Hitler hypotheticals to explain it. The

How odd. That isn't even a hash function!

We should dismiss it out of hand. Any image that a human can look at can be fed to a neural net. It's just an instance of the analog hole.

I'm serious that the similarities between the papers are superficial. I don't think it's fair of you to criticize the authors for not citing some obscure preprint, when that manuscript itself neglected to cite decades of prio

Both papers use the phrase "regular expressions" and there the resemblance ends. The linked manuscript uses regular expression to realize a grammar and then memoizes logic masks. I want to know why FlashText failed to cite: Baeza-

jsonformer uses a template rather than a DFA. The logit masking seems to be identical, though.

You'd be wrong at just about every turn. A 98 year old woman has a 70% chance of making it to 99.

Why not matrix? Due to the creeping shitification of Discord my friends moved over to a self-hosted matrix server. It costs about $5/mo and does everything we need it to do.

It gets even worse. For purposes of apportionment prisoners are counted in their place of incarceration rather than their domicile. New York lost a congressional seat by 89 people. How many New Yorkers are incarcerated at Fort Dix?

Yes, I read the page. This is crayon cryptography. The author has presented no reason for anyone to take this seriously.
