d'oh! That's what I get for trying to type quickly.

This is awesome, and I really no no idea about this!

So: your point is the usage of AI in common vernacular should not have changed from its meaning 50 years ago, and using it in its modern sense as shorthand for LLMs and generative models is bad.

And your point is also that the modern usage of a Luddite is correct and you should ignore the original group and the conditions that led this group to smash the textiles because the usage of that word changing is fine and we should not look at original usage?

Got it. Words change. Sometimes. And other times no.

Any ideas on how to rectify this?

Sounds like the LEDs are doing a great job of that already

I remember going through this and realizing that the "adults" in charge, were in fact just like me and still not knowing what was going on.

Now that is the gift that keeps on giving! I also like the implication that one can "learn" emacs.

Latex is worth knowing, its most commonly used for academic papers, but it opens up a whole world of scripting automated documents. But, to make it really interesting, throw in tikz and/or pgfplots for some interesting power tools. Tikz does A LOT, and is really powerful. But can definitely be overwhelming.

Just within the last week or so old.reddit.com was effectively disabled and stopped working. (I think it might work if you log in, but i quit doing that 3 years ago). It was a nice resource and it’s said that it’s such a shell of what it was. Right when the internet is really needing human voices too

I know what you’re saying, but also macOS is actually a certified Unix. So not really a “middle” ground towards Unix.

This is part of it. Constitutionally, the governor can only appoint for state offices, but there was historical precedent for the governor to appoint federal offices. And you are right that the state had passed some laws requiring a special election, but it also had some crazy length like 56-days required between the call and the election taking place to let all counties be notified. (As best I can remember reading. It's all a bit of a mess.)

The more annoying thing is the two rulebooks. McConnell has tended to make up his own rules (and justify them with legalese) and ignore the ones he doesn't like. Beshear is trying to play by the rules, and not recognizing the actual power shifts that have happened. And so, here we sit in sending-angry-letter mode for the time being.

Everything about modern console gaming has been frustrating. I'm trying to help my kids, but having physical media hard to find, never-ending account creation, and then features locked behind online stuff, that you then have to subscribe to the console company to play anything online? What have we done?

I bought a linksys wrt simply because they had the open firmware. That router was amazing!
