Maybe RIP another client?

@paul I have friends who have gone to OpenAI, and yeah they play by Fruit Company rules. OpenAI staff are even discouraged from posting even their job titles; publicly most of them list their title as simply “Member of Technical Staff”.
@yiningkarlli @paul I see OpenAI people post all the time, in fact they spend an inordinate amount of time online. Also Member of Technical Staff is the actual title.

Maybe RIP another client? Not really sure if OpenAI is like Apple where you generally disappear after joining.

@paul It’s too bad if Ice Cubes loses updates. It sucks to see the Mastodon client variety lessen over time.

@paul I got really bad vibes about this guy when his app came out and he didn’t take too kindly to feedback and bug reports. Probably a good fit for OpenAI.

@paul it used to be Meta snapping up the indie devs in our community. The turns have tabled
@stroughtonsmith @paul we'll see if he fixes his bugs when he works at openAI...

@paul looks like I backed the winner in that race (#IvoryApp vs #IceCubesApp for Mastodon on iOS). Less competition isn’t great though…

@paul on Bluesky. I had been testing Ice Cubes’ local timeline and I was wondering what he was up to… he has been posting there a lot about AI.
(Ivory is still my favorite app that I use daily - multiple times a day that is - so taking this opportunity to thank you and the Tapbots team for your amazing work on it) 🙏

Prepararsi al pi day 2026
Quest'anno mettere in piedi il Carnevale della Matematica del 14 marzo, che sarà peraltro la 195.ma edizione, non è stato per nulla semplice. Il motivo è che il giorno del pi day sarò sul treno per rientrare da Firenze, dove a partire dall'11 marzo sarà in svolgimento Didacta, fiera della didattica italiana. Ho, quindi, costretto gli altri matematti a inviarmi con congruo anticipo i loro contributi (e nel frattempo ho anche cercato di impostare delle bozze, non sia mai che riesca a raccontarvi qualcosa da Didacta a fine serata!), per cui non ho preparato nessun contenuto video da lanciare in contemporanea o in anteprima al Carnevale. E allora ecco l'idea di proporre in un post apposito un paio di news di MaddMaths! dedicate proprio al pi day e che sarebbero state decisamente vecchie uscendo all'interno del Carnevale:
Tutte le info per segnalare gli eventi dedicati alla Giornata intenazionale della matematica: per questa edizione il tema è Matematica e speranzaInoltre c'è anche una pagina con alcune attività da organizzare per il pi day. All'interno troverete alcune schede in italiano per attività a tema matematico (e pi greco!).Anche se mancano ancora pochi giorni al #piday, c'è comunque ancora un po' di tempo per segnalare eventi o lasciarsi ispirare dalle attività proposte!

@oblomov @mcc @grumpygamer
After reading up on this a bit I can semi-confidently say that this branching process with d6s will continue infinitely. The highest chance of it terminating is of course in the first or second roll, but after that chances of terminating become infinitesimally small.

@oblomov @mcc @grumpygamer hi! It seems like you've stumbled upon the lovely mathematical genre of problem called 'branching processes' and 'extinction probabilities'. I don't know how to calculate this, but I can show you where to look.
Tbis Reddit post had a similar idea to you: https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/s/jH1LzTXROe
This is the wiki page on branching processes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_process?wprov=sfla1

@stefano also, for convenience, the overview page:
-
@mcc @grumpygamer that would be my intuition as well but I'm sure there's a mathematical way to prove it

@mullvadnet Great writeup, raising awareness on this is very important. Mullvad reporting thoroughly on this topic, I appreciate it.

Ho rivisto Ferngully. 🌺🌿
Che bello che è, che bella che era la sensibilità ambientalista degli anni '90.
Che bello essere cresciuta con un immaginario e una scala di valori che tuttora definisce il mio nucleo.
