@Migueldeicaza Have a hard time grokking how so many otherwise smart people can remain captive to whatever is left of that formerly great platform. It's like sticking around on myspace until the bitter end

Apparently people don't just like emulated calculators in the browser - they love it, and want more.
So come enjoy the CALCULATOR DRAWER, a dozen plus emulated calculators and (where I could find them) the manuals. Get calculating!

Random thought: the end game of "creative" ML tools (for design etc) is not just job replacement.
It's algorithmic "everything". An algorithm that can generate 1000 slightly different ads, display to users, and based on clicks optimize itself and promote the most succesul ones.
(Netflix already does that with trailers, but still half manually.)
Real world reinforcement learning, where human attention is the reward function, cheap to evaluate.

Coming soon: Ricoh 2A03 support (the NES CPU) for visual6502remix :)
@rrmutt @arclight @bitsavers Definitely some truth to that, but google Multi-Jet Fusion and what role it plays in advanced engineering today
Good old memories of my childhood, part of which was spent making this run fast in Turbo Pascal & assembly:

The best feature of Mastodon is that you can mention the words "hashing" and "crypto" and you won't be swarmed by bots or morons.

Whoah, apparently Twitter suspended my account and then changed their mind. Seems a bit much. I missed it all because I was reading to 10 yo. Or rather alternately reading and listening to his ideas for new Pokemon.
I guess the defining experience when using GitHub Copilot (or any other code autocompleter) is when you hack away at some code, autocompleting some trivialities, and then as you hit Tab it suddenly inserts a chunky couple lines of nontrivial code. And you're like, wait that can't be the solution. Is it the solution? (..a minute later..) It's the solution.
Finally firing this thing up over here. Toot!
Alright, so I'm on Mastodon now.
