The World Factbook, also known as the CIA World Factbook, was a reference resource produced by the United States' Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) with almanac-style information about the countries of the world.

CC @gone-things.bsky.social
They closed the CIA World Factbook and deleted it entirely.

I like the idea of calling American music a-pop, a-rock, etc, and American shows a-drama.

Slightly off topic about diff utilities. Apparently `diff3` is the one of two remaining GNU tools used in the FreeBSD codebase. The other one is `dialog`.
Is there a portable (POSIX/Win32) diff utility that is literally just a single diff.c file which I can copy-paste to my project? Similar to xxd.c?

Let's create a narcissistic CEO bingo card for when the AI bubble will have been collapsing:

1. Attributes the failure on the society being mean to him

2. Blames partners

3. Denies the reality: bubble burst doesn't exist.

So I was right! E minor (Dorian scale). The only difference is that Kaval Sviri additionally utilises the minor second.
Any folk musicians here. Do I understand correctly that the Bulgarian folk song Kaval Sviri, and the famous chant from the Halo game are in the same key? I have some wild goosebumps imagining a choir mixing those two.

Most of the time the Americans are wrong with their negative opinions, cause they can't be fucked to learn anything about any other country.

Am I tripping or has YouTube started using some new AI compression (voicecloning+STT+TTS) recently? Many YouTubers started to sound like AI (some compression-like artifacts).

I just hope that those who believe that LLMs have "stolen" their open source software took the opportunity to file an amicus brief in support of Oracle in Google v. Oracle

Fascinating thread
The Weight of Words

For HKers, language is our identity. We speak Cantonese. We write in traditional Chinese. And during the pro-democracy protests when it seemed like no one would hear us, we just made up some new words that speak our truth.

Very inspiring speech on the technical sovereignty in the post-american world. It starts on a provoking tone, but at around a 30min mark it gets into the weeds.

Every time a vendor makes us a presentation of the new version with a token AI functionality, they try looking professional saying "Nano Banana", whilst silently dying inside.

Priceless.

Whoever has made the decision to call the model this way, I applaud you.
