The news of the past few weeks weren't exactly uplifting, so I found it quite cathartic to see Josh Johnson unpacking what is going on in such a humorous way.

Meta's AI seeming to critically reflect on its existence is entertaining, but we lack the language to talk about what happens.
"But the nonprofit does not exist, which Brian later confirmed."
Brian did not confirm anything. A machine computed the most probable continuation, regarding the text distribution on the internet, of the conversation. The journalist interpreted this text as her imagined conversation partner admitting something.

There is a "Electronic Instruments Jam" in the 38c3 schedule. Now I am thinking about throwing a synth in my suitcase. But which one? 🤔

Standing in a packed book shop, being stressed out by the holiday preparations, and holding a book about someone finding themselves on a trip to some exotic place, was my surreal moment of the day.

Just listened to Mary Spender's "Super. Sexy. Heartbreak." Haven't had time to check it out before. After a first listen, "Make Me An Offer" is so far my favorite. Atmospheric textures and a pulsating bass line. Such a great vibe.

Had a busy day, and I am going to sit down with a cup of tea and just listen to some music, nothing else. I do not remember when I had the last dedicated listening session. Must have been a while.

Determining whether two axis-aligned bounding-boxes collide might look tricky at first. It becomes easier when you realize that you only need to check the projections of the boxes onto the x- and the y-axis. If both of them overlap, you have a collision.

Apparently, there is a scam going around claiming to protect your music from being used to train generative AI. However, by agreeing you give them the rights to use your music.

Coldplay's Parachutes is still such a great LP. Just listened to it for the first time in quite a while. Always wanted to learn to play "Yellow", but somehow this weird guitar tuning scared me off.

3/ So far I have tried VS Code/VS Codium, Pulsar, Geany, Kate, Zed, and Lite XL, and I am not completely happy with any of these.
Is there anything else I should look at? (Don't say vim or emacs.) //

The german railway has this amazing system that sends you messages during your trip in case something goes wrong. So, you always have all the information you need. This morning, for example, I got the lovely message: "Train cancelled."
