Fond memories! They have the entire Doria family archive at the university. It was donated by Giorgio Doria, noted economic historian and descendant of the famous Dorias of old.

That distinction goes to Boston Pizza and their signature “drywall” crust.

Nah. Pretty big downgrade from its first incarnation in the old SUB.

How is that an effective barrier?

Is this meant to be funny? Because it isn’t.

Until last year, I used to feed my exam questions to ChatGPT, paste them into the actual exam, and ask students to grade the answers. ChatGPT used to get scores of 20-40% on my 3rd year econ history exam. These days it routinely hits 80%, provided you feed it the reading list first.

That’s Irène Joliot-Curie, Marie’s daughter. Three Nobel prizes between the two of them, five in total in the family.

All time favorite email from an undergraduate student:

“Hey dude, what’s my grade?”

Well, update. This morning it's back to the old Sequoia snappiness. Looks like I needed to rant about it on Bluesky for it to get its act together!

It's every little thing. Send a text message, it takes a split second to actually show up on the feed. Open a folder, it takes half a second to populate the icons. Just a consistent short lag to the entire interface.

Nope - my top -u is clear. And it's not like I'm starved for power.

I've looked at the various workarounds, but it seems that the only fix for the time being would be to reinstall Sequoia, for which I don't have the time or the inclination. Apple has always treated users as beta testers, but Tahoe has been out for two+ months already and it is still slow.
