ChatGPT is scary because it's a "yes and" machine for feeding into people's delusions. The lower information someone is the more at risk they are to get sucked into niche belief systems while being fed endless streams of affirming bullshit.

You know what to do #Ontario
Discouraging voters is an intentional strategy. Vote anyway.

Bruh, it's snowy out there. I thought it'd be a casual stroll but came home with a few mm of snow on my head :P
Gonna pokemon go to the polls

Fucking hell somebody's been trying to convince my family members to vote for the "people's party" which is our "far right" party full of neo nazis / white supremacists. 😭
Tensorflow is fun because you can make bonkers amounts of math happen with just a few bits of code.
It'd be cool if one could do similar stuff i UIUA just due to how it enables bonkers amounts of math to happen in it too.

Instead of doom scrolling I'm reading up on recurrent neural networks and transformer models.
On the 10th I'll be teaching some folks a bit about autoencoders with this "Neural spatial curves" project I've been working on. Hopefully I can get this model visualizer tool together in time

honestly I would prefer if cash did not rule everything around me
For real this font based syntax highlighting is so good. Screw ever needing a JS based editor again, just shove in a textarea and call it a day. Need some sort of formatting? Just do a lil `textarea.value = format(textarea.value)` and call it a day
it'd be neat to be able to replicate my soul in cyberspace some day. Even if it quickly diverges from the perspectives of my flesh self. I think we'd still get along.

We've got a new release (2.8.2) of Agregore Desktop which brings "font-based" syntax highlighting to all Code Blocks and TextArea inputs
https://github.com/AgregoreWeb/agregore-browser/releases/tag/v2.8.2
Eatin chickie tendies for lunch and doing some fun code in Agregore.
Got a PR for adding font level syntax highlighting so just doing some fixes before we release.
This'll be great because I've really wanted syntax highlighting in stuff like TextArea tags but didn't want to import heavy JavaScript deps.
For my #Ontario pals, remember to vote this Thursday! Even if you didn't register you can still show up with a valid piece of ID. Lets kick Ford out so we can stop having our social services gutted while he gives handouts to his millionaire pals.

Where does it get the URLs from?
Some of the URLs must be coming from external sources, because I have requests like: /tales/27-years-of-linux/ringe/disobligingly/agronomy/downweigh/toxicohemia/ultrarefined/. The first two parts are valid, real pages, but I never served them to this particular bot. So it must have seen a reference to it elsewhere, and entered the maze there. Most crawled URLs have parts that are made up from my wordlist, so... I guess those are coming from previous scans.
In any case, this strongly suggests that at least some of the bots keep track of URLs seen, and that's going to be very wasteful for them.
Another win!
