Its arrogant and ignorant to think that you personally create the future. There is no "global nexus" that is slowly trying to enslave you into some monstrous juggernaut and misuse everything you make.

I made a generative NFT based on this I manually searched the space by zooming and panning into various areas from 2x all the way to about 10^13 zoom ans rendered them in high intensity color schemes https://imgur.com/galler

LEA is used for calculating integer A + B * C in one instruction for C that is 1, 2 or 4 It is meant for calculating array index addresses base+index*itemsize but was found by many assembly programmers of the early days to be useful for gen

I had the honor/misfortune of inheriting a coffeescript codebase. Swiftly rewrote the whole thing in JS, to the great relief of everyone who had ever needed to maintain that code. It was a weird language and deservedly died out

Would it not be simpler to bitwise OR every 5th bit to one based on a byte mask for uppercase chars? Also, use SIMD - I think even AVX can do byte level paralellism for 256 and 512 bits at a time?

A mapping of atomic states onto consciouness.exe would usually have more bits than consciousness.exe itself. This argument is similar to the one where you can have a specialized trivial program to generate any sequence of data - for example

The Linux kernel has about 30 million lines of code. Windows 10 has about 60 million. I doubt that any other software project has as many. How would you even end up with 500K source files in the repo?

Americans should first look at the other energy wastage they do - oversized automobiles, excessive consumption and wastage of food, factory farming, military. This "cryptocurrency causes global warming" is a nice story for the gul
