Array.prototype.forEach() is my new addiction

Little background on me: I'm a casual Ingress player. Ingress is a AR mobile game developed by Niantic, the same people that made Pokemon GO.

Due to having little free time and money I can't go to anomalies, which are big Ingress battles that take place in various cities.

The day before an anomaly there may be a fitness challenge sponsored by GORUCK, a company that sells tools for certain endurance sports.

My medium/long term objective is to grow in salary and physical strength so I can partecipate in one of those events.

With the launch of our new post-quantum #encryption your data will now be safe from "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" tactics. 👨‍🌾🔓

Find out all the ways the #NSA can get at your data and how Tuta Mail protects you! 👉 tuta.com/blog/post-quantum-cry

This approach is often taken by government agencies like the NSA or #FBI in order to decrypt encrypted messages once the #technology is available. 🕵️

This morning I played my first warhammer AoS match at my local GW store. It was just a tutorial against the clerk and yet I had a lot of fun!

Flat origami is Turing Complete. (arXiv:2309.07932v1 [math.CO]) arxiv.org/abs/2309.07932

Flat origami is Turing Complete

Flat origami refers to the folding of flat, zero-curvature paper such that the finished object lies in a plane. Mathematically, flat origami consists of a continuous, piecewise isometric map $f:P\subseteq\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ along with a layer ordering $λ_f:P\times P\to \{-1,1\}$ that tracks which points of $P$ are above/below others when folded. The set of crease lines that a flat origami makes (i.e., the set on which the mapping $f$ is non-differentiable) is called its \textit{crease pattern}. Flat origami mappings and their layer orderings can possess surprisingly intricate structure. For instance, determining whether or not a given straight-line planar graph drawn on $P$ is the crease pattern for some flat origami has been shown to be an NP-complete problem, and this result from 1996 led to numerous explorations in computational aspects of flat origami. In this paper we prove that flat origami, when viewed as a computational device, is Turing complete. We do this by showing that flat origami crease patterns with \textit{optional creases} (creases that might be folded or remain unfolded depending on constraints imposed by other creases or inputs) can be constructed to simulate Rule 110, a one-dimensional cellular automaton that was proven to be Turing complete by Matthew Cook in 2004.

When they say the school or university don't teach you things you need for work, they aren't wrong.
Let's take digital signatures for example. You learn that a digital signature is a triple of algorithms used for proving authenticity and integrity of a file.
What is an actual digital signature when you work? Your full name plus info slapped at the end of an email or a PNG of your handwritten signature.

I was picking up an other's guy phone thinking it was mine 😅

What I'd want to do after coming home from work:
- build my gunpla
- play videogames
What I'm going to do:
- laundry

From today I'm a Service Now Product Specialist. At least, that's what is written on the contract.

I had to move to a different city, I'm starting my first job in two days.
Well, it's actually a three months internship, yet it's a big change in my life.
I'm nervous af lol.

When you do your first vim macro and it executes flawlessly 🎉

This made me chuckle. It's Italian but I wanted to share this board with you. Vito Volterra is humbled to meet four great mathematicians (Weierstrass, Cantor, Kovalevskaja and Hurwitz) and his face is priceless (last panel, on the left). Don't worry Vito, you're going to be more than worthy to be among them.

My thesis's bibliography is becoming a bit redundant 😅 . I wonder if mr. Bernstein is on Mastodon.

Really cool to discover the itchio bundle for equality includes some pen and paper RPGs!
