LLMs are surprisingly good at reading Morse code. Some time ago I pranked my flatmate. I installed a wifi switch in the wall and then wrote a script to convert text to Morse code and send the code with a slight delay through his lamp. I also built a website to do some legend-building to make him believe a ghost is haunting our apartment. He sent a video of the flickering lamp to chatGPT and it correctly deciphered it. We had a good laugh when I revealed the prank to him.

Hi, I'm part of the team that built Sai. If you are curious about the tech, feel free to ask.

We are still limiting signups to keep our costs under control, but you can use the code "SIMULAR" to register. The first 1,000 users get access to Sai for $20/month (regular $200/month).

How did the wildlife adapt to that? There must be some cool species there

I find the Swift tooling very lacking. There's no way to lint dead code, there no way to auto format the files exactly as Xcode would do it and tell the linter those rules so that it doesn't lint your auto formatted code. Xcode project files are impossible to edit except with Xcode and Xcode often has issues and I need to manually empty the build folder. These are just some of the issues I remember

It doesn't look like it does since "fund I" >> "fund II"

I think an important factor is also how long you had the same number. I switch numbers every couple of years because I get a new contract and moving the number to the new company is such a hassle. Over time you share your number with more and more companies and people who sell it or get breached.

My parents had their number for ~30 years. I never get spam calls or texts. They get one once a week or so (this is in Germany, we get a lot fewer of these calls).

CRLite sounds like an elegant solution. Are there reasons why Chrome is not implementing it or do they just have other priorities?

I am not sure the highscores get updated. I don't see HTTP requests or a websocket to communicate with the server
