It’s been a while, so I want to take a few minutes to remind folks of these facts.

1. Your value is independent of your productivity.
2. Your identity transcends the title they give you when you sell your time for survival.
3. Rest is a right, not a reward.
4. All we have is each other. It’s imperative that we treat each other with care.

time to piss people off with this meme again

meme titled "the enlightened centrist" featuring a guy shrugging with a goofy smile.  blocks of text all around him say: I'm not left or right I'm a secret third thing (right) I respect all political viewpoints. It's just a coincidence I only happen to show support for the right wing ones. both sides are equally bad. I think anti-fascism is the same as fascism and should be treated exactly the same, which says a lot about what I really believe if you think about it. you see it's all about striking a balance between criticizing the left and defending the right. I'm above all that partisan fighting. basically I found a way to feel superior to both sides without taking any principled positions.  I stand for absolutely nothing LMAO.

Tab is too large to slide down evenly, and the second bolt gets stuck on the back end, so I either need to make it thinner or create a notch so both bolts can make contact with the pole.

The conclusion of a century-long quest 😲

Our VLT obtained firm evidence that Betelgeuse, a red supergiant star in the Orion constellation and one of the most famous stars in the night sky, is not alone!

A collage of various astronomical images. The background image shows a wide view of a starry night sky, with blue lines connecting the stars of the Orion constellation. An inset image zooms into the star Betelgeuse, showing its orange surface. A second inset shows a bright companion next to the star.

Look folks the genie is out of the bottle. The genie went from $20/mo to $200/mo. The genie is spending $8 for every dollar it makes. The genie is reactivating every coal power plant it can.

addendum:

We additionally request that you don't use littlegem with LLMs at all. There are plenty of cool sounding languages out there that will welcome you and your slightly creepy ethereal friend, go use one of those instead. We don't want yet another small community split because LLM bros don't understand consent or the meaning of the word 'no', so kindly do not.

we have an LLM policy now

This project is written by humans for humans. We care deeply about the craft of programming and we don't want to see it eroded by shitty planet burning slop machines and the greed of fascist techbros, quite aside from all of the other well documented problems with LLMs.

LLM contributions of any sort are forbidden. We are not interested in discussing this, if you can't
be bothered to write it yourself, we can't be bothered to read it, and if you care so little about
the craft of programming you'd take part in its destruction, we don't want your contribution.

Ok, I was fully prepared for this to be completely made up...and yet... it is true.

Fritz #Zwicky really did coin the phrases "dark matter" and "spherical bastards". What a froopy dude!

#physics #language #semantics #sphericalbastards #darkmatter #astrophysics

Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term "dark matter" which is impressive, but he also coined the term "spherical bastard" to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and | think that should be celebrated more.
