A colleague once told me not to use Ubuntu in production. I was too busy/lazy to research why. That was ten years ago. I'm glad I procrastinated in my research and just used Debian all these years.

Unintentional napping was associated with possible/probable dementia.
Intentional napping was not.
One could easily reverse cause and effect here.

At priority ranking? It's less accurate, slower, and more expensive than every other purpose-built tool.

They should at least tell us the atomic mass they're using.
If it's based on carbon-14 it will lose half its model weights in 5,730 years; if it's based on carbon-12, it's a stable release.

Re:Show HN: Timur's Chess – A 14th century chess variant with giraffes
on Wednesday October 14, 2026 @04:52PM (#50095037)
So the giraffe kinda moves like a knight that can't jump. It takes a mandatory diagonal, then must move at least three more squares. But then it can move any number of squares in that direction after those three.
Okay, so not really like a knight at all.
Wait until you find out about the cannon in Chinese chess. It's like a rook that not only can jump one piece, but must.
