Hah. Yes, I assume training in beliefs that sponsored products are great is in AI’s future.
That’s a fun one to unpack with the advent of sentience — fits right in with Murderbot’s “the xyz training modules they gave us are crap” though.
“Make new mistakes” is a worthwhile goal in my book.
Yes — I think part of the lesson is to document the rationale and the compromises as much or more than the intended functionality.
Laughable for chess, but essentially how Steve Mould played tic tac toe using synthesized DNA.
Me (interviewing recently): Could I see an example design doc or some code before we discuss your offer? Hiring manager: We don’t do designs, just launch and iterate. And here’s some code, it’s all fully self documenting. Me: Nope nope nope.
Good call, time to block & move on.
I’m just getting:
Please moderate the content of your question before submitting it.
So true. I recently learned there’s a Python package for natural sorting, similar in other languages.
If you haven’t played with Pulumi (for configuring cloud services) and Ansible (for local services, shell commands, apt installs etc) you may enjoy them as a way to capture / re-apply configuration.
I do do interviews too. It’s a lot of time and work. A well designed interview can and should be a realistic, rewarding problem solving session where you get to try out collaboration with potential colleagues.
Cheating leetcode interviews with AI doesn’t seem that innovative to me, just adding dishonesty to a broken practice. Destruction is always easier than creation.
Also, as someone who frequently designs and runs SW interviews, it’s totally possible to run interviews that test actually important SW skills like OO design, error handling, and using APIs, which AIs still fail handily.
If you want to do something cool, make an AI to refactor your codebase for maintainability and security.
Hmm, it’s been a while, maybe I’m misremembering. There were definitely some categories of Plex content not from my library that kept reappearing on the home page of my server, despite trying to get rid of them a few times. Maybe they weren’t actually paid, I just assumed they’d only be pushing something if it was going to bring them more revenue.
The other thing that made me want to jump ship extremely fast was when they started sharing your recently watched items with other users, without asking.
Even with Plex pass they were really pushing their paid content. Much happier with Jellyfin, and it was very easy to switch.
No no they’re not “wrong,” they’re slouched in defeat because someone stole their keyboard, mouse, and desktop, leaving them with only a 1280x760 DVI monitor.
Steganography may be interesting in that vein. Hiding data within larger images / sound files etc.
Thanks!

Ah, that’s what that blue bull with yellow hair is.
Gargoyle - always spawns in orthogonally (vertically or horizontally) adjacent pairs
And they always face each other.
Minotaur - a treasure chest always spawns in one of the 8 spaces surrounding him
And they always face away from the chest, but turn towards it when you open the chest.
Dragon - Defeat it to end the game with a win.
Defeat it to get 13 gold, pick up gold to reveal crown, pick up crown to end game. But if you’re trying to collect all the gold you can, it’s OK to defeat the dragon and keep going a little.
Romeo and Juliet
Face each other equidistant from the center line.
Fun, even works on Linux (Ubuntu) after turning on Proton for all games. I like the level-based design.
Yeah that one’s a mystery to me. Sometimes disappears, sometimes gives you gold. I was wondering if it’s related to the blue bull in some way.
Software union? (Where?)
