So far I've done the routes for Flynn and Carl.
Carl's route has one big branch that significantly changes the arcs of a bunch of characters as well as at least one early bad end, while Flynn's route mostly diverges only in how well one of the side characters keeps it together.
I kinda like that the narrative structure of each route isn't perfectly parallel and it makes me curious about the rest.

“The defendants in the lawsuit have not admitted wrongdoing as part of the settlement, and city attorneys deny an orchestrated effort to violate protesters’ rights.”

Many of you ask me how I can stay in the fight. How I am not beaten down by the dark forces of authoritarianism which are very much with us, as are growing inequality and corruption. I mean this when I say it: because of you. This includes all of you on social media, and in my classroom.

Hey all. Can someone please explain to me book indexing? Like, what am I doing? How picky do I have to be about capturing every instance of something, etc.?

I admit to having mixed feelings about this funding:
“built with the company’s specialized chips, which are designed to power artificial intelligence products. The chips stand out for their size — like that of a dinner plate, or 56 times as large as a chip commonly used for A.I. Each Cerebras chip packs the computing power of hundreds of traditional chips.
Cerebras said it had built the supercomputer for G42, an A.I. company. G42 [of Abu Dhabi] said it planned to use the supercomputer to create and power A.I. products for the Middle East.”

“With the simple tweak of advising the chatbots to work with specific data, they generated intelligible answers and useful advice. That transformed me over the last few months from a cranky A.I. skeptic into an enthusiastic power user.”

There's like several thousand words of exposition about how they found the right sequence of opens and closes to set up a signal handler, groom the address space, set the stack executable (another dlopen side effect!), and trigger the signal.
But what makes it :art: is this bit:
"As a last and extreme example of a remote attack against ssh-agent forwarding, we noticed that one shared library's constructor function (which can be invoked by a remote attacker via an ssh-agent forwarding) starts a server thread that listens on a TCP port, and we discovered a remotely exploitable vulnerability (a heap-based buffer overflow) in his server's implementation.”

@bcrypt One thing to add to this, is HPV is now a leading cause of throat and mouth cancer for sexually active males, from ~55 on up. I urge everyone under 45 to get this vaccine. Speaking from personal, familial experience. MD Anderson Cancer Center has learned a lot since ~2014 on certain HPV strain relationships to some cancers. I heard this straight from an oncologist there at one of my own survivorship clinics. If this post encourages only one person to get the vaccine, I consider it a huge victory.
