My pet peve is people who insist I know how to disassemble an M14 blindfolded before my opinion about shooting children is valid.

(I know how to unload most guns, which is the only useful thing to do with them)

There was reporting in the Washington Post that contradicts this.

Senior Israeli officials said they voiced support for the cease-fire proposal, but Nasrallah withheld his consent, insisting on a cease-fire for Gaza first, U.S. and Middle Eastern officials said.

"somebody is fucking with me"

The Earth is way too close, and I don't think a meteor strike on the earth, no matter how energetic, would look like a bullet going through an apple.

I didn't say it wasn't American, I said it's not American to eat it. No American has ever purchased, much less consumed grape nuts. They don't even put the product in the boxes anymore. Just some led shot and asbestos to give it weight and they change out the box design every once in a while. They've been doing this since the 80s, it has to remain on the shelves to satisfy the terms of a demonic contract.

Before that, Grape Nuts was funded by the dentist lobby hoping to cash in on all those broken teeth. But nobody ever bought any and the dentists gave up.

The owner of the Brave browser is known to have right-wing political beliefs. Some people don't think it's ethical to use the browser because of this, instead of not using Brave because it sucks.

You can't copyright AI generated text, video, or images.

However, the courts may be flexible in the future with content that has significant human input. However that gets defined.

I see that the greedy capitalists have also stolen my third fucking comma.

Framing WWII as "good-guy/ bad-guy" betrays the staggering naiveté of a History Channel graduate. But this was a long time ago, he's probably moved on to the Fall of Rome by now.

If you look closely at the back of the chair you'll see why even FOBITTS flying drones have a 25% casualty rate.

I've always wanted to love Iron Maiden, but I just can't. It's the lyrical delivery, like Dickinson invented the opposite of "flow".

Obviously the band is GOAT when it comes to T-shirts.

Obviously this frat-boy shit is dumb, but if you had to figure out if someone was a real American or a spy, this would be an excellent way to do it.

Like if someone said "I eat musli" or "I like grape nuts" you could go ahead and shoot the spy.

“If I should die, think only this of me: that there’s some corner of a foreign field that is forever England,”

Even their poetry was imperial and expansionist. Oh well, at least this gives me some context for that Roger Waters song.

No hate for the middle class. I can't help but enjoy the irony of people who thought they had solidarity with capital talking like Ned Ludd all of a sudden.

The way I read the article, the "worth millions" is the sum of the ransom demand.

The funny part is that the exploit is in the "smart" contract, ya know the thing that the blockchain keeps secure by forbidding any updates or patches.

 

The researchers started by sketching out the problem they wanted to solve in Python, a popular programming language. But they left out the lines in the program that would specify how to solve it. That is where FunSearch comes in. It gets Codey to fill in the blanks—in effect, to suggest code that will solve the problem.

A second algorithm then checks and scores what Codey comes up with. The best suggestions—even if not yet correct—are saved and given back to Codey, which tries to complete the program again. “Many will be nonsensical, some will be sensible, and a few will be truly inspired,” says Kohli. “You take those truly inspired ones and you say, ‘Okay, take these ones and repeat.’”

After a couple of million suggestions and a few dozen repetitions of the overall process—which took a few days—FunSearch was able to come up with code that produced a correct and previously unknown solution to the cap set problem, which involves finding the largest size of a certain type of set. Imagine plotting dots on graph paper. The cap set problem is like trying to figure out how many dots you can put down without three of them ever forming a straight line.
