  • That squirrel has gotten its revenge. He didn't cook it enough. Keith is going home. Tough guys are not cut out for this. Poor guy now has to ride on a boat for ages while monstrously nauseous.

  • When they're excited about eating a squirrel, things are not going well. Should have been fishing instead of tattooing yourself with a bone, Keith.

  • I am gonna put that line into a song for my band, tho. Like it’s hard to not used such lit lyrics when the occupying forces write them for you.

  • They need you afraid to use your voice because the biggest threat to power is speaking truth to power.

  • @oblomov @las_lallero invece l'articolo parla di estoni, che percepiscono la propria identità invasa e sopraffatta, perché qualcuno attribuisce la nascita nell'Unione Sovietica (e insomma hanno pure ragione, anche se storicamente chissà, ma nella realtà niente è semplice e non ci sono sempre risposte nette, non esistono definizioni per chi è nato a metà, i "bastardi", i "mezzosague", i creoli, e alla fine bisognerebbe deporre tutte le armi, anche quelle non fisiche, ma come si fa?)

  • Give them even that data!
    Gemini In Google Calendar Now Helps You Find the Best Meeting Time For All Attendees

    Fine, give an "uncontrollable" AI complete access to your calendar. Give them even that data!

    What could possibly go wrong?

    William Gibson already foresaw it: in his books all military grade AI must be kept with the digital equivalent of a loaded gun pointed that shoots point-blank

  • “You raise your voice, I erase your voice.”

    Okay, so Black folk know this messaging. Sandra Bland was killed by this. So many Black folk were lost, beaten, lynched, and disappeared because of this. Generation after generation.

    But white people, y’all might not be familiar with police militarization.

    See, power needs deference to function, and extreme power needs extreme deference. And if you do not defer to power, your life is forfeit. This is something I grew up knowing. I was like 7 when I learned a cop would just as soon beat me bloody or shoot me as have me speak to him without deference. 50 years ago, I knew that.

    But y’all are just learning. Take this to heart: the fact that yelling at a cop can get you killed might come as a surprise to you. But that’s just Tuesday in the ghetto.

    I know a lot of y’all spent the last decade or whatever believing that Walter Scott musta done something extremely bad to get shot in the back. But the reality is, it has always been, that all you gotta do is pop off at the mouth to get popped in your chest.

    All those birds are comin home to roost, y’all. It ain’t right, but it damn sure ain’t a surprise.

    Welcome to the terrordome.

  • This guy seems to not be doing well with food, so yeah, not the same guy, who I think is still doing OK on food.

    @sidereal @futurebird TBH “int()” is not a mathematical function. Mathematics has floor, ceiling, and truncation, which are unambiguous. The problem here is computer scientists and engineers. Some of them have taken int() to mean the integer part as originally used by Legendre (which is, the floor), while others have chosen to use the truncation instead. (And then Excel that IIRC has it all wrong.)

    Sometimes I wander into wonderful rabbit holes.This week's adventure, "What’s the fastest way to multiply two 32-bit numbers on an ARM Cortex-M0 CPU?"If you're thinking Karatsuba multiplication (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm), you’re wrong.While Karatsuba offers a lower asymptotic complexity (around O(n^1.58)), it only pays off when used recursively on larger integers.On the Cortex-M0, Karatsuba runs much slower than the plain naïve multiply. It turns out, simplicity wins at this scale.Godbolt Source:https://godbolt.org/z/4rP7bnv6r#programming #math

    M(77232917) is officially the 50th Mersenne Prime.M(77232917) was discovered seven and half years ago. Now, thanks to the diligent efforts of many GIMPS volunteers, every smaller Mersenne number has been successfully double-checked. Thus, M(77232917) officially becomes the 50th Mersenne prime.This is a significant milestone for the GIMPS project. The next Mersenne milestone is not far away, please consider joining this important double-checking effort.https://www.mersenne.org/report_exponent/?exp_lo=77232917&full=1#math #maths
