Auspicious uptime!
There may be a bug, I captured an island with less than 3 kills (I didn't have more than 1 kill IIRC)
I've imported and adapted my personal agentic dev framework to my team relatively successfully (as I've kept it relatively harness independent), but it requires actually owning it, vibed or bloated or conceptually inconsistent stuff bite a lot when porting things over.

The writing style smells like Gemini output. I din't mind, I just wonder if anyone else noticed.
Hey a couple of bugs: 1. When I create an org it doesn't appear in the list until refresh. Then, one of the two orgs I made was created twice, or is somehow displayed twice.
Re:Roblox CEO Makes a Fool of Himself in Car-Crash Interview on Tuesday November 25, 2025 @12:15AM (#46042566)
I am interested because I have kids and they like Roblox (chat disabled). I don't doubt thing, I care about my children's well-being.
I've been using it as well for a long while (though using option shift -), but I don't care what people think. I won't change my style to appease Temu Sherlocks, or anyone really. How I write doesn't change the value of the message. I invite you to join me in not giving a crap.

I'm interested in sources for your info about Roblox being choke full with pedos and the sophisticated techniques they employ.

Do you have some particular piece of software or tech demo or game in mind with interesting very large generated 3D worlds?
Re:Chess grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky has passed away on Tuesday October 21, 2025 @08:47AM (#45655098)
Also: Daniel was being accused of cheating by Kramnik and visibly affected by it. I think there's a link between bullying and suicide isn't there?
Looks like an alternative to https://www.taichi-lang.org/. Would like to see a comparison.
Re:Local First, Forever on Tuesday June 25, 2024 @07:15AM (#40787021)
"à la", there is no diacritic on "la". "à" means (roughtly) "to" and there is a diacritical mark to distinguish it from "a" as in "il a", "he has". But "la" means "the", like "le" but female, and there is no need to distinguish it from any other homograph.
I feel that the interrobang ‽ better conveys sarcastic exclamation.

Also `echo $NIGHT_JOB`, I'm curious like that.

To preempt other queries, maybe just paste the `set` output.

chatte, which translates to pussy, is a better homophone. Also funnier but less sfw

I work for an Australian company in Australia and they'll give me paid sick leave beyond the standard allowance if I need it. But I agree that it'd be better if that was a right.
Re:Where do our atoms come from? on Friday November 03, 2023 @08:28AM (#38127712)
I think electrical activity in the brain is misunderstood. These electrical signals are not electrons moving along a wire, they are waves of depolarisation between the inside and inside of the cell membrane travelling along the axon or dendrites. The depolarisation is due to the activity of a bunch of ion pumps and channels that let ions pass between the inside and outside of the cell. Some of these ion channels are themselves voltage-gated, thereby further increasing the depolarisation in response to depolarisation, and propagating the signal that way.

So it's still mostly atoms moving in and out of cells. Still stardust.

How do you represent knowledge in your knowledge graph? Do you use an existing open source ontology?

Re:Open source hospital price database on Tuesday June 13, 2023 @11:12PM (#36320965)
Public healthcare can also suck balls indeed, but to compare the same things, I would rather pay for well-functioning public healthcare than for well-functioning private healthcare. The other insurer's incentives (max profit) are just less likely to be aligned with mine (good health) in the private system.
