Yeah, the whole poetry-as-"prompt injection" paper sure smelled like propaganda. Turned out it is.

cursed CSS trick: use the Q unit instead of px, it looks *almost* the same and saves a character
"By 2025, Brexit had reduced UK GDP by 6% to 8%, with the impact accumulating gradually over time. We estimate that investment was reduced by between 12% and 18%, employment by 3% to 4% and productivity by 3% to 4%"

The Economic Impact of Brexit
While exploring in my local woodland this morning I discovered something I have never seen here before: Hair Ice fungus.
It's really delicate and beautiful, and quite rare as it requires very specific atmospheric conditions in which to form.

Today I received the coolest, most thoughtful gift. Twice.
My day started out when a friend traveled from far far away, and dropped by to bring me a package on behalf of 
@anyiaAnyia, queer girl 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈, whom they had just visited.
It was a beautiful *handmade* puzzle box, with three interesting locks built into it, and a *four-page* letter of appreciation—the amount of effort they put into making me feel special is extraordinary 🥰
---
Then, a couple hours later, a package arrived from my girlfriend. Inside were two lever locks. One from the 1830s, and one from the 1920s that is stamped with "Mastodon" 🥰 The 4-lever lock is now the oldest I'm my collection, and the Mastodon lock is the first 8-lever lock in my collection.
---
And finally, a couple hours after the package arrived from my girlfriend, I got to meet a new friend from Mastodon in person for the first time—which was its own present 🥰
---
So today I got to add five unique new locks, several good memories, and a new friend to my collections.
It was a good frickin' day 💝
@anyiaAnyia, queer girl 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 pop! That middle lock was really interesting to pick, and holy shit that key!
I ended up using a long flat windshield wiper insert to slide under the far end of the lid, reach across, and poke the levers from the side while using a bent bike spoke to lift the lid slightly so I could make the levers bind.

It is OK to Say “CSS Variables” Instead of (or Alongside) “Custom Properties”
TPAC 2025 just ended, and I am positively tired. Attending it remotely, my sleep schedule is chaotic right now. I have many ideas for CSS-related posts in my list of ideas for November, but almost all of them require at least some amount of research and crafting demos. Well! I found one note that I wanted to expand on, and which sounds tiny enough to be able to finish it in my altered state.

DMV.Community is an instance for all your Department of Motor Vehicles needs!
Wait, I've just been informed that it means DC, Maryland, and Virginia...
So DMV for those areas only?

The whole poetry/prompt thing is a good reminder: just because a claim sounds like it would bolster a prior belief doesn't make it true. It's all too easy, and I am very guilty of this, to let your guard down around things that reinforce narratives I already believe.
(There's a subtle distinction with Bayesian-style priors that's worth exploring.)
But like, here, we *know* LLMs suck, we know why. We don't need to fall for hoaxes and propaganda to bolster that.
Kennt jemand gute TOTP Hardware, die man für die Arbeit haben möchte? Mir geht es ein wenig auf den Keks mein privates Smartphone für die ganzen Codes verwenden zu müssen.
Wäre cool, wenn das Ding mit mehreren Accounts gleichzeitig umgehen könnte z.B. AWS, Azure, Github, Dockerhub, etc.
Soweit ich das verstanden habe können die meisten Devices (Thales, Feitian) nur ein Secret, daher fällt es mir schwer was zu finden. Oder hab ich da was falsch verstanden?

I desperately avoid keeping any contact info on my phone, as it's so often slurped up in various ways. I also wipe all conversations frequently as standard digital hygiene. Thus, I get a lot of texts from (000) 555-1212 and I have absolutely no idea who it is, so I try to infer from the text content with .. uh.. varying levels of success.

This is a really sobering analysis, but I believe it is essentially correct.
Oh hey someone with a hotmail address would like to send me a quote to redesign my web site.
We have an RFQ from a potential customer, one of their questions is:
If the platform uses machine learning specifically against data relating to a person, to what extent has bias and ethics been considered for relevance by the supplier?
I appreciate the nature of this question a great deal!
