"You check out guitar George, he knows all the chords"

I suppose knowing what commands to type has precedence over just typing fast.

The other day I came across to a video showing workers in a e-vape factory. They pick up a bunch of e-vapes from the conveyor belt (each has 6 e-vape think), stick in their mouth and vigorously vape all of them for about 5 seconds, then test the next bunch. Humans reviewing hundreds of lines of change in a PR written by AI is not very different.

you don't need AI to find out that the hard-capped concurrent request limit of 10 was the root cause. but you do need an AI to find it for you so you can joke about giving it a raise.

SPOF still applies here. You don't need evidence of fatigue or anything. You have only 1 of anything, you run the risk of ending up having nothing.

I asked an AI. I thought they would know.

What the hell is a "safety score for violence"?

A “safety score for violence” is usually a risk rating used by platforms, AI systems, or moderation tools to estimate how likely a piece of content is to involve or promote violence. It’s not a universal standard—different companies use their own versions—but the idea is similar everywhere.

What it measures

A safety score typically evaluates whether text, images, or videos contain things like:

Threats of violence (“I’m going to hurt someone.”) Instructions for harming people Glorifying violent acts Descriptions of physical harm or abuse Planning or encouraging attacks

Everything that has a beginning has an end. It would be really cool to live until whenever and realize that given our poor capacity to recollect past events we humans are actually the goldfish of the universe. No death means you only remember hash of events that are so distant in your past which is basically how you felt. After some time of life you start to only remember your feelings without recollecting much details about the events.

Really? Isn't it the republicans who are vehemently against regulation and not the democrats?

YES you do. BUT with varying retention periods for each a) environment b) region c) function d) criticality e) metric namespace/name f) team etc.

Nobody needs to retain metrics like CPU, Memory for weeks but I may want to see their numbers during an incident, or not long after it is over.

Got "Infinity" after testing my Firefox Dev Edition 123b9. Is this because of my FF config because my browser is perhaps blocking something (e.g. canvas, fingerprint, etc) or any result north of 140 is considered infinity?

It mostly depends on how you feel in the moment, and how you would like to feel some moments later, e.g., if you are feeling blue, listening melancholic music will amplify your blueness, happy music on the other hand (whatever it is for you) will possibly get you out of it. Another factor is your age (your music listening experience). Many times you'll find yourself listening to the same albums/songs and feeling differently than you felt while listening to the same tunes years ago.

Music is just a game of pattern recognition to spur up emotions which may trigger thoughts/ideas or may just provide resolve. Rules like no rock music in the morning, or jazz only in the evenings, though may help, don't make sense. Maybe you hate rock music this morning but next week maybe you'll enjoy. Keeping an open mind about the consumption of music and avoiding self imposed rules like that will only add to your experience.
