I was making YouTube face the entire time I was watching this. Layers of surprise that I truly did not expect, starting from the title.

Dan Olson does not need me to do ads for him, but, software people, even if you're not already a fan of his, you should watch this. I will spoil it a little bit by saying that it is actually about the dangers of over-focusing on short-term metrics.

Remember in February, when Trump filed a ridiculous $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS, expecting a massive taxpayer-financed payout?

The IRS signaled in a new court filing that settlement talks are underway.

I can finally talk about what I did during the last year! In collaboration with @cfbolz we developed a Verilog simulator called verijit based on meta-tracing just in time compilers. The results are pretty crazy: verijit is up to 100x faster than verilator for simulating processors.

You can follow us on Mastodon @verijit

We have a neat mandelbrot demo below:

Anyone know what circuit board this easter egg is from, and who made it? I'm trying to find a source to attribute.

Not the quote itself, I know that's from System Shock. I mean the board that had this printed on it. Looking at reverse image search, it's one of those meme images that's been around for ever and has gone through the social media human centipede so many times that the source is just "idk internet engagement farming bots".

I'm hoping the six degrees of separation thing works out, and someone recognizes the board and can tell me who to credit.

EDIT: solved in thread! It's an ACA1221ec accelerator card for the Amiga 1200, https://wiki.icomp.de/wiki/ACA1221ec and board pic at https://www.ppa.pl/graffiti/obrazek/4095/look-at-you-hacker . Thank you fedi!

Side note, if you want to see how common of a pattern this is, and I can't believe I didn't think of this earlier, go search Github.com for 'deleteduser.com', lots of examples of delete functions from apps there that do this type of thing.

Couple of new additions today to the internet dumpster:

- Some internal system at one of the worlds largest and most recognizable consumer electronics manufacturer is telling deleteduser.com all about approved purchase orders, including direct links to the orders, and the names of all the people who are involved.

- More gyms, very common.

- Some platform used to offer temporary shifts to healthcare workers asked a nurse at deleteduser.com if they were available to urgently cover a shift at a South African healthcare facility.

• video: A 3d animation of an anthropomorphic dragon flying while carrying a yinglet in his arms. The yinglet starts mimicking common cockpit alarm sounds causing the dragon to get a confused look on his face. After a longer pause, the yinglet then starts shaking violently similar to a stick shaker stall warning signal, which makes the dragon get a panicked look on his face. The animation ends with a cut to a view far from below at the ground, looking up at the duo as the stick shaker warning ends and the dragon starts flying normally again.

The delusion and disconnect between Silicon Valley and the real world will persist until the venture capital runway—or the dangerous debt financing—runs out. At which point, demand will be revealed as a fraction of the desire to build supply.

Nobody. Wants. This.

You can make people use tools they despise, but you do so at the cost of productivity and employee turnover. Say it with me: Gen AI is a loser.

When people ask me about "AI" policy, I like to point out that there is policy being made at many different levels and even if our national government is currently a shitshow, local action really matters, like zoning against data centers and "AI" policy in schools.

New metric shows renewables are 53% cheaper than nuclear power

A new metric for assessing total system costs puts a least-cost mix of offshore wind and solar at about €46 ($54.20)/MWh in a future climate-neutral energy system for Denmark. Researchers tell pv magazine that figure is less than half the equivalent cost of nuclear under the same conditions.
