I loved this cheeky comeback.
Why not reinvent the wheel? I’ve already learned a great deal in just starting this project, and I’m excited to learn a great deal more.
Your energy is infectious! I’ll be eagerly following this project
When the marketing agency jumps the shark
I love that.
I don’t even have a microwave but this sounds… good… ??? What did you do to me!
Tell me you don’t add alt text to your posts without telling me :p
I imagine it’s a 2D array? So width would be captured by uhh like a[N].len

It could be I’m misunderstanding you, because not not sure what you mean by:
linear data with varying sectioning content
I hope that’s generated, because the section you quote makes only a dim amount of sense, and then only if you take on most of collaborative work of communication as the reader
Actually the main reason I’m commenting is because I wanted to say, I love your username!
I’ve only just started in on the article, but I like the writing style. Reminds me of David Rakoff’s carefully incisive voice. I loved his essays.
Indeed, treasure that memory. I wish I’d had access to the pirate/bootleg console scene, but at least there was the PC scene, and emulators for me.
I don’t think it’s really changed in that time. I just leave and receive little back and forth comments on what mutual follows and me are reading, thinking about reading. It’s got like a more pen pal cadence in that way.
Anyway, I like that. I come to lemmy or masto for the faster, general back and forths
Ahhh the prime pirating years. Enjoy! If I hadn’t pirated at that age, I would have but a tiny fraction of the shared culture and nostalgia that I currently enjoy with my peers.
…and that contemporary game makers and publishers profit from today, now that I’ve got money to spend.
I can see it. Didn’t really think about it since I already have a bottomless TBR pile based on personal recommendations, or curiosity, than I can possibly ever read.
Asking on Mastodon with the #books tag would probably yield some good results. Lots of chatty folks follow that tag :)
Yeah, good way to track books without having to be part of Amazon’s pipeline.
Though tbh I track most of my book slash other media impressions in a paper notebook. I just like how it feels.
Yo book wyrm is so chill, I love it. I maybe check it once a week, but always enjoy it.
What I like about the fedi is I don’t care if it’s a “success” in the same sense that the closed social media sites have to be. It’s not like this project has quarterly profit targets to hit or else it’ll have to enshittify or else the investors pull out and we’re all screwed because there’s no more app.fediverse.com monolith or whatever.
Nah it’s just us doing our thing and enjoying ourselves. The activity around here already reached a critical mass a while ago, to the point that there’s more content than I could hope to enjoy, so anything from here is vegan gravy.
Look at the baby over here. I remember 33… Actually not really.

I think you just answered your own question.
Also a super intelligence (inasmuch as such a thing makes sense) might be totally unfathomable. Unless by this we mean an intelligence with mundane and comprehensible higher goals, but explosive strategic capabilities to bring them about. In which case their actions might seem random to us.
Like the typical example applies: could an amoeba guess at the motivations of a human?
