"google images" is not an acceptable credit for anything.

“Patent Pending” as his title is the best. It doesnt take much to get a patent granted to begin with, but bragging about having filed one is like putting ex-Google (interviewee), ex-Meta (interviewee) in your profile…

My favorite comment on the FT story

Personally I'd be impressed if they could make something as smart as an ant. Ants only have 250,000 neurons, which is pretty small compared with GPT-5's reputed more than one trillion parameters. And yet ants are able to survive all by themselves in this complex world of ours, without endless infusions of investor capital or government subsidies. I don't think GPT-5 could do that.

Its basically a piracy site, not surprising. This isnt @archive.org doing things for the greater good, but a page circumventing paywalls and injecting their own ads.

A couple weeks ago a friend was telling me about someone she knew who had been on maternity leave, and said she had taken "the full year." I said, "A whole year? Wow, what kind of fancy job does she have that gives her a YEAR of leave?" and my friend looked surprised & said, "... welcome to Canada?"

That's what I thought, and then I updated an app from SDL2 to SDL3 and suddently everything was a milion times further away from some moment in 1970.

Wundert mich, dass man sich darüber aufregen kann. Wer nach 9/11 die Stimmung in NYC und in den USA erlebt hat, die Diskussionen um die «Ground Zero Mosque» etwa, muss die Entwicklung seither anerkennen – selbstverständlich ist sie nicht. Sie ist einfach … very NYC.

Arthur Honegger @honegger.bsky.social · 2d

Egal, was man von seinen Ideen hält: Dass New York City mit Zohran #Mamdani erstmals einen Muslim als Bürgermeister wählt, wenig mehr als zwanzig Jahre nach 9/11, das bringt den offenen Geist dieser grossartigen Stadt auf den Punkt.

the password to the louvre surveillance server was "louvre"

according to the liberation newspaper, documents dating back to a 2014 inspection by the French National Agency for the Security of Computer Systems reported a staggering detail: "the password of the louvre's video surveillance server was simply " louvre. "

While testing Unreal II for Xbox, if we angled our gun upwards by 45 degrees and shot the assault rifle at the bridge strut as we walked across it, the game would consistently crash

We tested that stupid bridge for weeks
