It's funny how "AI" tools are simulteanously marketed as "agents" that can run fully in the background and do stuff but whenever they do something bad it's the user at fault for not supervising the software that doesn't work.
Even when it’s directly used and the user has the chance to review everything—it’s extremely dangerous, especially at tasks it is doing fine like 95% of the time and/or when the bad things are only subtly wrong.
Imagine other tools being like this, like a steering wheel that turns the car 95 out of a 100 times. 2% of the time it steers into the other direction. 3% of the time it steers 5x as much as normally.

ERA 100 (FF)

English Alt Text:
A black-and-white photograph of a tiled corridor. A single person walks away from the camera toward a bright opening at the far end, appearing as a dark silhouette against the strong backlight. The figure is slightly blurred, suggesting motion. The corridor walls are dim, with faint text in a non-Latin script visible on the right side. The contrast between the dark passage and the glowing exit creates a dramatic sense of depth, mystery, and anticipation.

ERA 100 (FF)

English Alt Text:
A black-and-white photograph showing a broken ornate chair in the foreground. The chair’s decorative frame remains, but its seat and parts of the backrest are missing, exposing its inner structure. Behind it, two sculpted busts rest on a pedestal, partially hidden in shadow. The background is dark, contrasting with the illuminated chair. The scene evokes themes of decay, time, and art, with the fragile chair juxtaposed against classical sculptures.

ERA 100 (FF)

English Alt Text:
A black-and-white photograph of a storefront display. Inside, a pile of animal costumes or taxidermy figures is stacked together, resembling furry mammals such as bears or raccoons. The arrangement is chaotic, with limbs and faces overlapping. Dim lighting and shadows create an eerie, surreal atmosphere. The tiled floor and glass panels frame the display, while a sign in the background is faintly visible but unreadable. The image feels unsettling and ambiguous, b…
ERA 100 (FF)

English Alt Text:
A black-and-white photograph of a sidewalk made of rectangular bricks. A concrete block sits on the pavement, casting a sharp shadow. Sunlight filters through tree branches above, creating intricate shadow patterns across the ground. White painted lines and arrows are visible nearby, possibly marking a parking or designated area. The interplay of light, shadow, and geometry gives the scene a striking, abstract quality.

I'm struggling to see how the Dolphins are somehow a worse team to coach than the Raiders or the Cardinals...

On Dec. 6, people across the United States marched.
They protested.
They carried banners:
No war on Venezuela.
No blood for oil.
US hands off Venezuela.
They chanted and waved Venezuelan flags.
Trump says he’s coming to remove Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.
-- He’s promised it’s only a matter of time.
The United States has amassed the largest military buildup in the Caribbean since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. 
But accordi…

fullerene_structures: Fullerene molecular structures
Fifteen networks of carbon atoms and the atomic bonds that connect them within molecules of fullerenes, from 60 atoms up to 6000 atoms. A bond is defined to exist whenever the distance of two atoms is less than 1.5 angstrom.
This network has 2940 nodes and 4410 edges.

Very happy to see Trump’s illegal block on wind farm development thrown out by a judge, along with the Orwellian justification given for it—a classic inversion of the truth. Every accusation is a confession, etc. (“The government argued that the states’ claims amount to nothing more than a policy disagreement over preferences for wind versus fossil fuel energy development that is outside the federal court’s jurisdiction.”)

Any computer touchers familiar with the origin story of UUIDs/GUIDs?
In particular I'm curious how we ended up with the weird format of 32 bits, 2x 16 bits, 8 bytes rather than the two obvious formats (uint32[4] or uint8[16]). And the C struct format doesn't align with the typical hex printing (8-4-4-4-12 hex digits)
My best guess is that it's somehow related to the version 1 GUID format where you'd have { MAC address, version nibble, timestamp} but neither the st…

Content warning: Advent of Code Solution - Day 7 (Python)

Once I pulled my head out of my ass this wasn't horrible. Part 1 was straightforward, decided to do some set stuff and managed to get it right the first time. Part 2 made my brain hurt a bit because all of the ideas that came to me were very, very slow and memory intensive. Then decided to scrap it and just do what the directions told me to do: count the paths...so I replaced the dumb with a dictionary which was so much better as an idea.
Solution:

The two relics of exploding stars are black holes and neutron stars.
Both were discovered by women.
Jocelyn Bell discovered neutron stars, in the guise of “pulsars”, in 1967.
Since then, three Nobel prizes have gone to male scientists for their work on pulsars, but none to Bell.
Louise Webster, the co-discoverer of black holes, has been largely forgotten.
Unless, of course, you remember her name.
