Some time ago I set up a server for a website and I was appalled, like many others, by the number of SSH connection attempts. I decided to open SSH only in a randomly chosen port number above 1024 and now I have essentially zero probing at

I agree with your analysis but Greek weren't merely conqueror, they are part of Sicily because they established themselves there and remained. Large part of Catania and Syracuse are of Greek ascent. About the arable land, I don't

I see that my post was down voted because it was written by an LLM in a verbose and pretentious style. That's okay but the idea I expressed are my own, the LLM did only the wording. I regret also that the discussion derailed to discuss

I do not agree with your generalisation, the Meson build system is well thought, it has a clear declarative syntax that let you just express what you want in a direct way. The designer of Meson explicitly avoided making the language turing

Yes, I told ChatGPT4 what I wanted to say and I left him the wording. I don't really like the style he adopted but, in some way, it is better than my approximative, rough, English.

Based on your comment, it appears to me that there may be a correlation between the number of X or Y chromosomes and an individual's height. Typically, individuals possess either XX or XY chromosomes. However, variations such as XXY (K

I do not like when people take a shortcut and say that ChatGPT is from Microsoft. ChatGPT is from OpenAI. OpenAI is not part of Microsoft. They made an agreement of some sort but OpenAI is not part of Microsoft.

Lua can be run without using C or C++ just by running the interpreter. The shortcoming is that the standard library is intentionally very limited so there is very little you can do using Lua alone. The main path is to implement with C or C+
