Outside-the-box big brain idea for font webpages with walls of gibberish: Make the font for the gibberish the font.

You can't legally make a crawler to compete with Google anymore, it's explicitly stated in a lot of robots.txt's.

Not true, LLM’s will struggle with badly organized and designed large codebases just the same, though likely with less errors and profanities.

You literally cite the wikipedia page that explains this? Or was this anti-AI slop also written by AI..

There's a better way to do this, you use inverse CDF to avoid all the RNG calls. Generate a random number, then skip items until you reach that number:

selectRandomFromIteratorOptimized(iterator) { if (!iterator.moveNext()) { return null; }

    var winner = iterator.current();
    var count = 1;

    while (true) {
        var u = random_float_open(0.0, 1.0);
        var skip = (int)Math.Floor(Math.Log(u) / Math.Log(1.0 - (1.0 / (count + 1))));

        for (var i = 0; i < skip; ++i) {
            if (!iterator.moveNext()) {
                return winner;
            }
            ++count;
        }

        if (!iterator.moveNext()) {
            return winner;
        }

        ++count;
        winner = iterator.current();
    }
}

The EFF has long been a skin suit my dude, they're just here to dissipate and confuse opposition.

What is TSLA's valuation based on anymore? Maybe next week it'll be the moon colony they’ll have up and running in 2028.

The escalation of commitment scam, interesting to see it so effective when applied to AI.

Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny.

They’re burning 30 million dollars a year on a site that’s torched over a billion since its inception. Just give the product manager one signup for their kpi before they/them are put out on the street.
