Platonism - not even once. Green is the smell of my grandmother's lawn on a hot summer day. Just because things are similar to a lot of people doesn't mean their fundamentally the same.

Occasionally I put on multiple programs. Movies in one room, an audio book in another, music in another, etc. Your mind drifts to what is interesting. Lights strobing. Working on 5 different home projects in parallel. It's a vibe.

As someone who has never studied distributed computing seriously, yet a systems guy, three or four articles deep here: I feel like I've had my eyes open to a new corner of computing and therein the answers to my problems.

This is anticipated from work on constrained output from LLMs, and it's good to see it being developed. One nitpick though, this paper mentions the complexities of implementing type checking for program prefixes in languages that are n

Nothing is demonstrably secure, only not demonstrably insecure. This is - hey our builds come with a bunch of resources you can use to try to prove they're insecure, but you probably can't - but it's an advertisement.

Mugshots are pretty locked down now, but when I was younger, you could just scroll and scroll. Used to go through, check to see if I knew anybody. Got lucky a few times. Well, if you think you're safe, you're not, and if you think
