@reidrac torch down all of their ASs, just in case

@boilingsteam US-only and forbid forwarders for no good reason. Hard pass.

Ugh... I'm... Actually, I'm amazed how good this is, if you treat it like some conceptualist piece

@boilingsteam - [x] Meh, nvidia

@glocq @dpiponi that's not a PD, but a "stag hunt" problem
(sorry)

@Serpent7776 The tuple (pair) in Haskell is treated like a single-element container. The left element is "annotation" and the right is "value being annotated".
This allows transforming the value while preserving the annotation.

("Example", 12345) :: (Text, Int)

fmap (> 0) ("eg", 12345) = ("eg", True)

traverse load ("my cat", "cat.jpg") -- replaces the image source with it's content while keeping the title.

Leibniz, 1685: “this language will be the greatest instrument of reason,” for “when there are disputes among persons, we can simply say: Let us calculate, without further ado, and see who is right”

Humanity, 2025: "I've asked ChatGPT. It said I'm right."

@Serpent7776 I love Haskell tuples and their "some stuff gets an annotation" semantics. Pythons tries to go this way with the tuples-that-aren't-quite-lists, but drops the ball halfway.

@me love such sites

@Some_Emo_Chick Why the investigation? What is there to investigate in a box with wires?

@L29Ah the $200 Pro does this too

Homeopathy is deeply unethical

The method of invoking the water memory is exceptionally problematic. The water had been in *terrible* places. It witnessed... things... It carries an incomprehensible levels of trauma.

And you invoke it to what? To cure a cold what would pass by itself in a few days? How dare you!

LLM-generated docs be like

```python
def wiggle_bottom(self, amplitude: float, phase: float) -> RC:
"""This function would wiggle the bottom. It takes the following arguments: amplitude (a double-precision floating point value according to ieee734 standard) and phase (also a double-precision floating point value formetted to ieee734). As a result it would provide a remote controller."""
```

@dougmerritt @demofox @dpiponi Face-melting ignition facilities

@wilfredh Neat trick! Should be possible in LSPs too

@atomicpoet @surf I wanted to, but the form has mandatory first/last name and email, and is a ios/android-only app?.. No bueno.

(And uses Flipboard/Mastodon in social accounts, but not "fediverse".. What's even going on there?)
