@mgorny@social.treehouse.systemsSo there's this new "#eDoręczenia" (~ "eDelivery") system that's supposed to replace the previous "ePUAP" system for exchanging signed messages between citizens and offices. I've finally had the opportunity of testing it today, and I have to say, it's magic.
So I wrote the message, attached the ~300 KiB attachment and clicked "Send". Now a status bar appeared on top, saying (in translation):
> Sending message, it can take up to 20 minutes!
Roughly two minutes later the status bar disappeared and I got a blank new message form. So I go into "sent", nothing there. I go into "drafts", there's my message, apparently listed with "delivery data". I click it, click "send" again — the same bar appears, but after a few seconds I'm back to the list. I click "sent", it's finally sent. Magic!

Honestly I find this Whitman entreaty to national unity kind of tedious. It's charming and American but it's just so earnest. And this poem doesn't have much music.
Stretching for a gay reading...
a superb friendship, exalté, previously unknown,
... it waits ... latent in all men.
Once again his calls for unity are partly rooted in relationships between men: "friendship" here, the least sexual of his words. But it's also a sort of hidden connection, unknown, latent, and that's a little queer-coded to me.

@pdmckone@mstdn.caI've seen outrage expressed at this one percent decrease of the lowest marginal tax rate as "not being a 'middle-class tax cut' since everyone -- billionaires included -- will benefit from it."
It's true; it means that anyone making more than $57,375 will pay 1% less on that first $57K. So, yes, a billionaire and I will both pay $573.75 less. That's how tax brackets work.
It's bad enough that some people don't understand taxation; it's worse that others exploit that to foment outrage.

"Science writer Carl Zimmer’s latest book is a brilliant history of medicine that takes us from Louis Pasteur’s germ theory of the 19th century to present day. Along the way, it offers an anthropological study of medical culture — a culture capable of ignoring science when it wants to. ...
"If COVID-19 spread in droplets, then it was worthwhile to keep people two metres apart, to put up plexiglas barriers around checkout stands, and make supermarket aisles one-way. Sanitizing countertops could break the chain of infection.
"But if COVID-19 was airborne, all those measures were pointless."
Bit of an exaggeration in that part of the article. The 2m distance does put you outside the densest clouds of exhaled breath, and sanitising countertops helps against other diseases. But yeah. A lot of effort wrongly expended due to the prevailing myth.

@tiotasram@kolektiva.socialJust read Fat Girls Dance by Cathleen Meredith, yet another semi-random venture into the currently-popular novels section of my library, rather than my recent YA staples. It's excellent. Fascinating and well-written just as fiction, but also empowering and perspective-upgrading (and I'm a married white cis man who is only beer-belly fat, plus already well into #BodyPositive thinking).
It bridges really well with Mama by Nikkya Hargrove, and with Does My Body Offend You by Mayra Cuevas and Marie Marquardt, both of which I went through recently. Yet another home fucking run for #OwnVoices, which felt extra good to read after Dream State was so disappointing. It really digs into and helps the reader explore body positivity just like Does My Body Offend You does with feminism.

@tante@tldr.nettime.orgIn the end it seems to me that one of the main distinctions between people who see LLMs as good and those who don't is whether they see the digital part of the world as "content" or "people".
If it's all just content, LLMs make sense. If it's where people live LLMs become a somewhat dumb idea.
@gedankenstuecke@scholar.socialI just saw an all-caps instruction file that someone uses to 'instruct' an LLM to help with coding, and it's just "don't hallucinate", "check your work", "don't say you did something when you didn't" with multiple exclamation marks.
So, basically the whole 'vibe coding,' or having "AI" "help" with coding just devolves into shouting at your computer.

3rd word was PAGAN, which was unusual for me because I tend to not use words w/ double letters until pushed into it. Particularly letters I haven't tried yet.
Occasionally though, I think hmm I think it's worth spending a spot narrowing down where this letter goes. Today there were 2 vowels left, A & I, and I was going to try to find a word to test both of them but figured A was a little more likely, I had a word that tested 2 A's and a couple of other good letters (G&N) so I went with it.
@scott@carfree.cityOne of my takeaways from reading _War and Peace_ last year was that Napoleon, whose warmongering killed millions across Europe, was basically a buffoon, a clown.

@tiotasram@kolektiva.socialEnded up using a probability game mechanic again today and thought I might explain it here in case other #GameDev folks might find it useful. The basic problem it solves is when you want a percentage probability to be influenced by both beneficial and detrimental stats/effects, and you want these to balance against each other without the system easily tipping too far in either direction. Think about crit chance for example, and how many games have either lopsided systems where it's easy to max out at 100% or really opaque systems to try to balance things somehow. The system I'm about to describe has a nice intuitive explanation, but also permits positive & negative modifiers to balance out naturally (though it may not work well for every situation).
