Looks really nice. The link in your post isn’t clickable so here you go: https://forum.retrofed.com/


This article has almost nothing to say. It’s a bit like writing an article saying: “The water that comes out of your tap doesn’t just magically appear through an interdimensional portal. It actually relies on a whole infrastructure of water treatment plants, reservoirs, pumps and pipes. Sometimes a pipe springs a leak and actual real living breathing people have to go and fix it.”
Yeah thanks, what are you actually trying to say? Nothing? Ok.


That’s awful, he didn’t deserve this. Imagine the life-long trauma of knowing that you killed a man.


You can bet they’re selling it to AI companies for training, too.
I’ve seen this talk before, but right at the beginning he links this blog-post which I didn’t read the last time: https://blog.aurynn.com/2015/12/16-contempt-culture
It’s worth linking here because it’s highly relevant to these kinds of discussions, and I like that he starts off his video acknowledging it.


This is vibe-coded nonsense.


I’ve been using CoMaps for a while as my only map app and I’m very happy with it.


It’s not as impressive when they’ve already crossed the 1, 2, 3 trillion marks.
Call me when they hit 1 quadrillion dollars market cap.


This is a brilliant presentation. I heard about his paper that demonstrated integer factorisation with an abacus, a VIC-20 and a dog, but I hadn’t seen this before.

Dylan Earl was handed 17 years and a further six years on extended licence for his “leading role”. Jake Reeves, from Croydon in south London, was given 12 years in prison with one year on extended licence. The offences they admitted made them the first to be convicted under the National Security Act 2023.
Jakeem Rose, 23 and also from Croydon, was jailed for eight years and 10 months. Nii Mensah, 23, from Thornton Heath, south London, was sentenced to nine years and 21-year-old Ugnius Asmena, who was homeless, was given seven years. The trio were each found guilty of aggravated arson and handed a further year on extended licence by the judge.
Ashton Evans, a 20-year-old drug dealer from Newport in Gwent, was jailed for nine years plus a further year on extended licence after being found guilty of failing to disclose information about terrorist acts relating to another plot in Mayfair.

Vulnerable to going extinct.
If you read the article it briefly touches on how the “doom spiral” could affect the trajectory of a language that is not widely spoken. It’s not a great article though, it just repeats the same thing for several pages, points the finger at wikipedia instead of the content-generation farms and then fails to properly conclude the argument of their presumed hypothesis.


if you click on it, the link in your browser’s address bar will more likely render properly.
The default on librewolf (and possibly Firefox?) is to show the punycode in the URL bar since rendering the international characters can be used as a way to create phishing URLs that look similar (and sometimes identical) to characters in the latin alphabet. This is a very dangerous feature since the URL bar of the phishing site can look identical to the real website address.
To enable the display of the alternate character sets represented by the punycode URLs, you have to set network.IDN_show_punycode to false in about:config.


Could you please use the cross-post feature instead of making a separate post in each community? That way our front-ends can consolidate multiple cross-posts into one post instead of it being listed multiple times.
Honestly, doing it your way looks like spam. This is what I see in my feed:



I am ALL Ken M on this blessed day!


Maybe you didn’t see the link, but the PDF of the original paper is linked by the page in the post: https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/639.pdf
The paper that you found is also interesting and references the 2022 paper.
