@awesomeest ". Apparently ding-dong was stealing them from closed drawers dipping in water then tossing behind dryer for years.
"
Thats fucking weird but a good story.
We had a dog that stole all the socks and would hide them behind a dresser as well.
He'd also do the same to any loose cash he could get ahold of.
Just dozens of chewed up dollar bills hidden behind the dresser for some god damn reason. -
never rely on the cloud.
if its in the cloud its not an app, its a service. -
@jestdotty "in my experience nobody cares and sides with the criminal"
yep.
I just move on from jobs like this. Easier to find a new job than even bother with the risks and headaches some mindless asshole is creating. -
Step 1.
Incorporate an LLC.
Step 2.
Impersonate yourself as a team lead who has worked for the company 'a long time.'
Step 3.
Claim x amount of experience.
Step 4.
Claim them on your resume.
Step 5.
Apply bullshit liberally. -
@N00bPancakes "The frequency that people washed their clothes went way up. "
Of course it did. They were having sex on top of the appliances.
Muh vibes are to blame. -
@alturnativ print the diff to a big poster, put into a simple black frame, and in bold text "I made this. Imposter syndrome can suck it."

@vane
And then I stumble on a new derivation of something like the silver ratio, or decomposition factorization, and I'm left floored, because my whole world view is if you're not educated, like college, then finding these sort of things doesn't happen. The world isn't good will hunting, reality doesn't work that way, and I'm definitely not as intelligent as him.
Like wtf is algreba? And why can't we do xyz? What rule prevents it? And if that rule weren't valid, at least under some circumstances, or special constraint, how would that be useful? And then I realize actually someone already thought of that, its what we have mathematical rings for, where the normal rules are modified or don't apply. And its a whole subset of mathematics. And here I am telling you something you probably already know.
But I'm not supposed to know that. I didn't go to college. I work for fucking pizza hut.
The entire world is a riddle, a grab-bag of contradictions being continuously reconciled. -
@vane
It actually kinda scares me.
Like I spent my whole life, least of all the last couple of years making posts here and elsewhere, thinking "ok this is kinda stupid and I'm gonna get roasted for posting it and having my ignorance put on display but eh thats kinda fun anyway and I'll learn something from someone more experienced and educated, and I don't know much anyway", sort of self-put downs, but then I look at my complete lack of education, and see prior posts where I was able to make reasonable estimates of the dedekinds, and I kinda look at that and say "actually maybe I'm not totally retarded".
And then its like I hit the occasional moment where I'm like "but wait a minute, what if this is real? -
@vane speaking of p, q, e, and n:
I had some earlier success about six months ago training a network on the internal variables (private components of the test data( from the p/x algebra.
Couldn't go further than that because while I understand the basics of a lot of ML, I don't understand the implementation and practice all that well.
It was pretty promising but without a mentor I had to abandon that route. It was the 'unknown unknowns' territory.
The matrix decomposition route, based on what I've seen is firmly in the 'known unknowns' category of understanding.
I'm seeing real results and not shitposting out of ignorance or fun so much anymore. -
@alturnativ Hey, half of them I don't understand either.
It's like mr. robot, but I don't know anything about hacking.
Have you heard about tropical algebra?
TROPICAL ALGREBA!
I just wanted to shout it because it sounds fun.
Like wearing hawaiian shirts while doing math.
There may be some relations to polynomials in this representation on the tropical ring, with modular spaces via fourier transformation. Just an intuition.
In six to eight hours I will have no clue what I was talking about. And half the time I don't.
Hence mr. robot.
In the meantime I'm glad you enjoy the rants man.
If any portals accidentally open you're invited to jump through them with me along with figoore and a select few other stalwart companions. -
@vane "There is still gonna be a big problem with big p and q if you want to use it for decryption without knowing private components."
At least for now I can reliably put a tight estimate on the exponent of the 2's factor of each magnitude of N's potential factors p and q.
It's a nontrivial improvement in the search space. The ruleset is pretty big though which is the reason for the automation. -
I've seen a lot of complaints from people who use figma. "don't blame the tool, blame the one using it etc", but it seems like figmas general flow enables a lot of bad design work by default.

@SidTheITGuy lol
-
@Lensflare thank you LF, I'll try that.
-
@kanyewest bruh,
-
you know what that means! Riffling through other people's desks like a lunatic, and getting up to hijinx and general mischief!
-
@kobenz we found him guys. Thats the guy. Get em!
-
Is she also a beautiful blonde that you accidentally broke a condom with?
-
@scor no one listens to my craziness anymore, not the fun kind, nor the unfun kind.
only thing to do is complete the work. -
@kiki underrated observation.
maybe aliens come to earth to find something original outside their own culture.
And you're standing in line for the next breathe of fire and you hear globknob the destroyer excitedly talk to his friend "I hear the new dark souls in coming out today! Earth is so retro. I knew we shoulda used warp 5 to get here an hour earlier before sun up, so we could be first in line! Now we'll have to head home to sirius II empty handed, and play the same boring matrix simulations that everyone else has been playing for the last 5000 years!" -
offer to transmogrify their turboencabulator to "win-win the profit margin on new marketing funnel opportunities."
Collect checks.
Do nothing but go to hamster-wheel meetings. -
"You can't use these libraries without knowing css"
I just came here to write "..and I raise you: tailwind"
but then I saw the tag and was like "OP thought of everything."
People are lazy. -
also, its good to be back. Didn't realize anyone would even miss me.
-
@SidTheITGuy A wild masochist appears!
-
you guys can install the app?
I got a new phone and the app store says it was made for an older version of phone and isn't compatible with mine.
I end up browsing the desktop version of the site. -
@retoor very subversive, but in a fun way.
-
@kanyewest bro! You made this account just to comment. Clearly it's the real kanye!
I mean he's crazy enough that it might actually be him. -
they're taking input like this and doing RLHF with it.
Eventually requests like yours won't require hand holding like this.
I think part of the process of development *is* this step by step clarification, where ideas that aren't fully refined, unknowns, edge cases, etc, are uncovered and specified.
Not well captured in the existing training data at the moment fwiw. -
"Like you're processing several thoughts in your head at once, and that leaves you in a state where you can't get anything done?"
Keep your phone on record, and talk out loud.
You can talk faster than you can write or type.
Stream of consciousness can be valuable for capturing the raw thought process. -
@b2plane if you're gonna do an abortion you might as well add cannibalism for the metal factor, and become an absolute savage. EAT THE ABORTION YOU HEATHEN! EAT IT while doing 90 miles an hour on the highway and blasting 'for whom the bell tolls!'
It's the only proper send off for your unborn.
