This is already the case for Master's degrees and above in Denmark. I've been the opponent examining students. We ask Master's students to give US instruction on a topic (drawn ran…

Alas, the android VM will fail safetynet by not passing bootloader attestation. I really hate modern Google.

> I’m disabled and became disabled as an adult and, in my experience, after becoming disabled I’ve faced rampant discrimination that wasn’t there before. I’ve been fired twice in t…

> I don't claim this is something to be proud of, but from that scandal to this day, I buy nothing from Sony, and neither does my company. Trust counts. I also haven't bought anyth…

http://philo.gay/linecam/gallery.html -- it's linked within the middle of the talk.

I still think that EME were a mistake for web standards to implement. I disable them by default and yet see widevine requests as part of analytics, the occasional bot captcha, and …

Most clusters I use are architected assuming you use vim and look at graphics locally. I do. I also use img-cat. I've never liked VSCode anything.

For me it's more metroid prime than FF. Just needs the coloured doors!

I "grew up" using Cinema 4D. Likewise I just find that the UI of blender is for whatever reason _incredibly_ not intuitive for me. I also don't really like the fact that everything…

If I see the phrase "The honest take: I was wrong" again I will scream...

A nanosecond? The speed of sound at sea level in dry air is approximately 330m/s. So at say 3.3 kHz, the rough logarithmic middle of the audible spectrum, K=2π/lambda is 2π/0.1 m=2…

I'm a medical physicist. I literally haven't been able to get Fable to answer a question I have written -- all of my work is verboten. I have however asked Claude Code (opus 4.8) t…

I still haven't been able to use Fable. I'm a medical physicist -- it just balks at anything I do and gives me an AUP / safeguard error. Applies even if I docstrip out all the comm…

For what it is worth, your site has been blocked by the UK's national cyber security centre on my current connection: This site may be associated with malicious activity or malware…

I'm an international prizewinning academic likely to reduce my hours due to health concerns but very interested in fun, physics-heavy problems and out-of-bag collaborations. Locati…

I haven't bought a single Sony product since then. I used to have a Sony walkman, clock radio, buy classical Sony CDs (or their sub brands), etc, nearly got an original PlayStation…

I know you're joking, but changes in isotopes mildly affect reduced mass and hence enzyme kinetics. Maize and other C4 plants already preferentially enrich themselves with 13C [0-3…

I think it's worth mentioning the likes of tor, lokinet, yggdrasil, i2p, freenet and maybe other "esoteric" forms of networking like vless or v2ray. If they really do put significa…

Academia is the most relevant, toxic example that I can think of. Be horrible to others on a short term contract (grad students, postdocs) and break them whilst extracting maximum …

> I saw 'medical physicist' and wondered what you do. Thank you for 'a bit more context', I care! Very interesting stuff. Did you attend medical school + a physics program? That's …

Honestly for a "side project" Opus has been fantastic for me writing a hybrid simulation framework that prior to large scale code generation would have been a matter of years (and …
