If you're on Linux you can use lxc-box to quickly spin up containers and VMs. I made a wrapper that creates them, installs codex and shares directories with the host in a single command, using a docker-like syntax

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

If, like me, you're trying to compile it, don't forget to set the

    -std=gnu89

flag in gcc, so:

    gcc -std=gnu89 -w -o maze maze.c

Then run it as:

    echo 10 | ./maze

They weren't "missing": GPS-tagged red-footed falcons revealed that they migrate to a tiny communal roost in central Angola (“Falcopolis”) each February–March.

There, saved you a click (disappointed on National Geographic for that clickbaity headline).

Thank you! From talking to a contact working with JWST, it sounds a bit trickier in practice. The data are public, but with Roman the idea is that you must process them on their computers rather than download everything locally, and you pay for the compute/storage you use.

That's a big deal. Do you have any source for that? (I couldn't find it in the ones you linked). This is great for humanity as a whole, but... poor grad students who now need to rush to publish their papers even sooner.

In case you're wondering like me, I think parent is referring to elephant skulls being mistaken for one-eyed, giant creatures.

To be fair, these "others unfamiliar with the internal logic" can very well be yourself in six months.

As a counterexample, thanks to LLMs many long-form articles that get posted with clickbaity (but devoid of content) headlines that I would have ignored otherwise now get "read" (albeit indirectly, with the prompt "Summarize the insights of the article $ARTICLE_URL in an academic, dry, technical and information-dense way")

I'd argue it's not only not inconvenient, but also a great way of keeping your system clean of all the random system-wide dependencies you'll end up accumulating over the years.

I'd say it's less a usage dropoff and more a reversion to the mean after Covid
