AI will continue until morale improves. Meanwhile people are resisting by coming up with hacks like this: https://gizmodo.com/add-fcking-to-your-google-searches-to-neutralize-ai-summaries-2000557710

This term I'm teaching the core combinatorics graduate course at my university. I've been know to call the homotopy theory of spaces "derived enumerative combinatorics", so I guess I'll be teaching underived homotopy theory —"just the pi_0, thank you very much!".

Does anybody else feel that proprietary programming language implementations just aren't real somehow? I know they exist but I never feel tempted to use one, even if it is available to try for free. As soon as I learn a language implementation is closed source I just automatically stop considering it. And I don't know why! It's not like I only use open source software. Until recently I used Windows. I have several closed source apps on my phone. I use a bunch of webapps that aren't open source either. But for some reason a programming language just doesn't feel real to me unless it has an open source implementation.

By the way, both Android and Windows have this built-in as an accessibility feature. To get a grayscale toggle on Linux I installed the picom compositor and use this little script:

[#]! /bin/bash

if pgrep picom > /dev/null; then

killall picom

else

picom -b  --backend glx --glx-fshader-win "

uniform sampler2D tex;

void main() {

     vec4 c = texture2D(tex, gl_TexCoord[0].xy);

     float y = dot(c.rgb, vec3(0.299, 0.587, 0.114));

     gl_FragColor = vec4(y, y, y, 1.0);

}" &> /dev/null

fi

I was invited to the "Annual International Conference on Annual International Conference on Physics and its Applications"! A conference about another conference! I would actually love that sort of thing if it were real. 😅

I'd never seen a university use MathJobs for PhD student applications before! https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/programs/25586

I'm on the second day of my experiment of using my phone and computer in grayscale. I'm liking it so far. Is color overrated?
