Not X, but dramatic Y:
- "But the missing few percent are not marginal; they are precisely the hardest items"
- "is not an engineering detail. It may be the entire problem.
- "the galaxy may be quiet not because nobody tried, but because replication is harder than arithmetic suggests."
as well as at least two other longer "not X, it's Y" type phrases.
Also, melodramatic phrasing like "Replication must outrun degradation — and degradation never sleeps."
Yes, someone could have written these manually, but these particular patterns are the things I notice most commonly in LLM outputs that I don't see in known-human writing.
My point is that it’s not a given that having one means you have the other.
TUIs are wonderful for the first case.
Probably the Mandela effect!
I feel like OP’s main gripe is that persistent interactive sessions should be supported without a third party tool like tmux or screen or zellij, but one of the main strengths of Unix is that it provides platform building blocks which can be composed to create whatever experience you’re looking for.
Hm, I'm quite skeptical about this claim.
Has anyone found any good collections of these? Whenever I try to search for riddles online, I end up with mostly results containing wordplay riddles like "what has a mouth but doesn't eat, ..."
Don't they host the relay servers that are the fallback if NAT hole punching and their other bag of tricks doesn't work?
- A section with 8 of my recently played playlists
- A section of "Made for <my name>" with 6 Daily Mixes (which I generally like), Discover weekly (which I like now that it's tailored to me: I used to hate that it only contained pop/hip hop hits), Release Radar (love it), and the AI DJ (which I find very annoying)
- A section called Recently Played which looks like all legitimate things I've played
- "New Releases for You", which are all by artists I've listened to very recently
- "Jump back in", which has several playlists and artists I've listened to recently
- A sidebar of all of my playlists I've created or followed
Of the ~50 actionable items on the page, the only one I dislike is the AI DJ, but it by no means feels forced on me since it's just a single square.
Any examples come to mind? I’d love to try (or at least read about) some games like this!
It seems like many recommendations are to use at least 75-100, or even 128. Being fairly conservative, if you had 10k hosts hashing 1B passwords a second, it would take 7.5 years worst case to crack [1]. If a particular site neglects to use a slow hash function and salting, it's easy to imagine bad actors precomputing rainbow tables that would make attacks relatively easy.
You can rebut that that's still a crazy amount of computation needed, but since it's reusable, I find it easy to believe it's already being done. For comparison, if the passwords have 100 bits of entropy, it would take those same 10k servers over 4 billion years to crack the password.
[1]: (2*71 / 1e9 / 10000 / (606024*365)) ≈ 7.5
Musically, two notes an octave apart vary by a factor of 2 (e.g. Middle A (A4) is 440Hz and the next A (A5) is 880Hz), and our ears hear frequencies logarithmically rather than linearly, so each of the 12 semitones in an octave is a factor of 2^(1/12) higher than the previous one (so that 12 of them in a row result in doubling the frequency), and therefore the 100 cents between each semitone are each (2^(1/12))^100 = 2^(1/1200) greater than the previous one.
