Come on. This push to summarize all webpages and written content with #AI is ridiculous.
See this example from #Arc Search - in what world is this an adequate summary for an 8,000 word article that takes 43 minutes to read?
The amount of detail, specificity, narrative, and actual arguments that get lo…

A call for essays is always fun! https://2024.splashcon.org/track/splash-2024-Onward-Essays#Call-for-Essays

SPLASH 2024 - Onward! Essays - SPLASH 2024
Onward! Essays is looking for clear and compelling pieces of writing about topics important to the software community. An essay can be long or short. An essay can be an exploration of the topic and its impact, or a story about the circumstances of its creation; it can present a personal view of what is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an act of discovery; it can be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. It can describe a personal journey, perhaps the one the author took to rea…

Henceforth, I’m gonna use this Tolkien quote whenever someone asks what I think about a competing package.

Diggin', diggin'... the East Asian #AMradio scene 🍛
This time I found two Chinese blogs related to radio. One, 5bcl.com, doesn't seem to be updated regularly, but another, blog.xmgspace.me, is more active as the author calls himself an #otaku 😜
Both blogs share what I think mirro…

A short survey around the pumping lemma for context-free languages
Following a seminar the present author gave to an Automata Theory course to computer science students, it will be presented, in a very synthetic and mostly selfcontained way, the principal properties of context free languages (CFL), with particular attention given to the Pumping Lemma (PL), and of grammars which generate them(CFG). We refer to Chomsky and Schutzenberger for the first works about it. What is known in literature as the Iteration Theorem here will be referred to as the Ogden's Lem…

Authors' Values and Attitudes Towards AI-bridged Scalable Personalization of Creative Language Arts
Generative AI has the potential to create a new form of interactive media: AI-bridged creative language arts (CLA), which bridge the author and audience by personalizing the author's vision to the audience's context and taste at scale. However, it is unclear what the authors' values and attitudes would be regarding AI-bridged CLA. To identify these values and attitudes, we conducted an interview study with 18 authors across eight genres (e.g., poetry, comics) by presenting speculative but reali…
