not a new observation but Elon Musk genuinely isn't very bright, genuinely has no idea how most things work, and his entire supergenius engineer persona is a tech press-enabled mythology (they've never been held accountable for)

We are not going to know when this makes the human to human leap. I am moving accordingly, and so should you.

I just completed "Bridge Repair" - Day 7 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/7

Had a late (early?) start, and for the second part early optimization was quite a problem. Should refactor to improve performance. github.com/codehead/adv...

I managed to improve the performance of the second puzzle by almost 75% just by placing blocks along the guard's path, but surely we can still do better.

On the sixth day of the #Perl Advent Calendar 2024, Lincoln D. Stein (LDS) leans on OpenAI::API to generate heartwarming Christmas cards, extending the stock image generator and creating AI-generated AI prompts (yes, you read that right). VERY cool!

I just completed "Guard Gallivant" - Day 6 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/6

For the second part my initial approach detected only the edge case where the loop completes on the next step. Went for a brute-force solution, but a decision tree should be MUCH faster.

On the fifth day of the #Perl Advent Calendar 2024, BDFOY tells us how Santa uses Data::Rx to sort data structures into Naughty and Nice lists, with really neat examples for custom types.

One of the finest delights of the season is here: The Perl Advent Calendar is out! So far they've talked about MooseX::StrictConstructor, the HTTP::XS*+URI::XS* combo, Ref::Util and using GitHub Actions in the Perl ecosystem. Looking forward to 20 more days of #Perl goodness! perladvent.org/2024/

Oh no. This is worse than feathered dinosaurs.
Difficult time for sabertoothed cats as scientists found a 35,000 year old preserved sabertoothed kitten in Siberia and something was discovered.

Sabertoothed cats have a pouch where their teeth slide into when they close their mouths, so their teeth actually did not protrude out of their muzz.

Fiction has to be plausible. History just has to happen.
You couldn't come up with an alternate historical timeline stranger and more horrific than what we have now.
