Regardless of all our thoughts on AI, it’s a very weird thing to do to stick one of the most famous brands in the world in the bin, without being taken over from a hostile bid by Elon Musk
Microsoft is so fucking stupid.
Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App
I'm not joking

You want ideas? How about we organize an "AI Annihilation Day", where people freely post nothing but original human content all over the Internet. Things such as rough pencil sketches, songs, stories etc., no matter how "bad" they are. If it doesn't endanger anyone else, it's fine to post. #aisucks

I just completed "Playground" - Day 8 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/8
Phew! This one was HARD for me! I fought a war with the borrow checker, floating-point errors and brute force. I could definitely optimize it too.

Man, part 2 of this one was a head scratcher. Many of my attempts would work on the example input, but not the main input.

I could definitely improve the efficiency of this. Maybe I should've converted to strings and back instead of modulo and division to split the numbers.

I'm gonna give Advent of Code another go this year. Last year, I battled with Typescript, and got around halfway through. I'll try Rust this time. I'm spending the days before getting to know my potential foe: the borrow checker. #AdventOfCode #Rust #TypeScript
