Remembering how controversial so-called "open book" exams were, way back when.

Rod Liddle is dead, apparently.
Humanity is very diverse, so it is possible that there are people to whom he was near and dear. We can have sympathy for them, if they exist, while remembering his life: a study in living as a horrible human being.

14 year old comes into my office and asks if he can borrow my copy of Snow Crash.
Me:
“Oh you’re interested in that kind book now, I suppose. Cool. Yeah you can definitely borrow it!”
*me, remembering how that book ends*
“Ummmm maybe we should save that one for later. Here’s my copy of Cyptonomicon. You’ll love it.”
He’s on a pretty long leash as far as content goes, but he does not need to read about the events surrounding the dentata quite yet… 😬

I wrote a blog post on using #Wikifunctions to determine the correct German article (der, die, or das) for a noun. It's an explainer for a tool I recently wrote and walks through calling Wikifunctions and how to fetch lexical data from #Wikidata.

#superproductivity app is great. There aren't many apps I can run on my locked down computer at work. But this one is possible to sync via webdav so I installed a minimal webdav just to syncronize the json and md file the app generates. It work flawlessly!

Some dipshit posted defending “AI” saying it’s “early days”, which triggered me remembering that I used to get emails inviting me to speak at conferences on AI 30 years ago simply because I had an email ending in “ai. mit. edu”. 😂
“Early days”
Yeah & the internet was created by Netscape in 1992.

On Monday, Trump remembered
Lindsey Graham as someone who called him too much, as a poor golfer and, in the manner of a person remembering a pet labrador, as someone who “loved being outside”.
There was praise, sure, but it was tempered with criticism, as if the president’s famously fragile ego meant he needed to assert dominance over Graham, even after the latter’s death.

Despite using tmux for mumblefuck years, I woke up this morning not remembering how to split the pane horizontally. These sorts of things have been happening to me more often, lately: words, shortcuts, file extensions simply missing and requiring lookup. I don't know how to judge if this is normal (not for me, until now!), age-related, or a sign of something more concerning, but I note the data points.

Today, I'm remembering that time on January 6, 2021 when Lindsey Graham indicated he might actually have a backbone by speaking out against the illegal coup attempt and said that Biden legitimately won the election.
It didn't stick though. He returned to his cowardly support of Turnip leading up to the 2024 election.

From Bill McKibben
Lee Raymond, former Exxon CEO who denied climate change, dies at 87,
when people think back in a hundred years or a thousand or ten thousand, the one thing worth remembering about him will be the crucial role he played in holding back action on climate change.

Wow. Admittedly I still teach this, but didn't think remembering how to do long division would be all that difficult. This has got me curious. Do you remember how to do long division? (no answers from current students/teachers please) #poll boosts appreciated. Try 100÷4 if you want to try it out and see if it comes back to you

What should we give academic credit for? Should the resolution of White's conjecture be published in a very good journal with lots of credit for the author? Even if it was just remembering this hard conjecture and pushing the button?
(I have no idea how much AI actually went into the counterexample!!)
And if not, then what to make with this conjecture and result?

As always, I wonder what the hell investors are thinking. But I always keep remembering the same thing:
- Investment isn’t about •actual• value, except maybe asymptotically. Investment is about correctly predicting what others will •perceive• as valuable.
- When some asset is hot but sketchy on the fundamentals, it doesn't matter whether some people know it or everyone knows it. It's just a game of chicken: just don't be the last to bail.
- Thus the old saying about betting against ill-founded popularity: the market can stay irrational a lot longer than you can stay solvent.
