>> 黎恩灝指,北京早已多次將黎智英定調為國安罪犯,他對於裁決結果「不意外」,但批評法院「誤導性地將黎智英對中國共產黨的態度,描述為他對中國或中國人民的態度」。

>> 他並表示,黎智英大多數被指涉及「外國勢力」的行為,均發生在《國安法》生效之前,法院在判決中模糊卻了「法律不溯及既往」的原則。

>> 「無國界記者」亦發佈聲明指,黎智英在嚴苛的條件下單獨監禁,每日僅能在鐵籠中進行50分鐘的「運動」,使其健康狀況嚴重惡化。

Fedi MTV is coming... This Xmas! Fuck yeah.

"It’s late capitalism, and artists have nowhere to go. Where’s left? Where can people discover new, risk-taking art? ...

We need a real human place for real human video art. So, we made one."

GoPLS integration breaking in ViM after upgrade to Fedora because of subtle differences in 3.14 was definitely not on my bingo for today.

YouCompleteMe uses the following Python code:

urllib.parse.urljoin('file:', urllib.request.pathname2url('/path/to/project'))

This produces file:///path/to/project on Python 3.10 but file:/path/to/project on 3.14. Now I'm really curious why.

其實一些中國的網路小說還是寫得不錯的,問題是常常會突然冒出各種莫名其妙的民族主義情緒。

本來寫小說多少帶點民族主義情緒也不算什麼,但問題是中國網路小說的民族主義都很奇葩,比如奇幻小說,就會表現得日韓的法術都很弱然後中國超強,這就很荒誕;不然就是外國人都是壞人只有大中國的人是好人就是大中國做出了跟外國人一樣的壞事也是反擊剛好而已。

重點是越好看的網路小說遇到這種事情時就越噁心,就像本來吃飯吃得還算開心的時候突然灌入了一口屎。

it’s like a typical prototype to polish loop that might normally take me a week, but the loop itself is very short. so tech debt also accumulates very fast. as soon as you know what you’re doing, you have to get code into shape

So a few months back I found a study that tried to do the "mirror test for consciousness" on ants. I remember not being very impressed with the journal where it was published, though I found the topic fascinating.

Anton Petrov has now mentioned this study in one of his videos, which means it's going to spread more.

So... how do the ant people feel about this?

it’s amazing how far you can vibecode stuff. the biggest challenge so far to me is knowing when to hit the brakes and make it refactor things to remove tech debt, and how to feed just the right examples in context so it can make good decisions

닷넷으로도 HWP 파일을 처리할 수 있는 라이브러리를 만들 수 있지 않을까 하는 오랜 과업 (?)을 생성형 AI, 그리고 훌륭한 Java 버전의 구현체를 만들어주신 neolord0 님의 컨트리뷰션을 바탕으로 .NET 10용 프로젝트를 착수하게 되었습니다.

현재 테스트 통과율은 40~50% 수준이지만, 일단 모든 코드를 기계적으로 포팅시켜서 시작점을 만들었다는 것만 해도 기쁘게 생각하고 있습니다.

이 일을 가능하게 도움주시고 지금도 꾸준히 커밋을 관리해주고 계신 neolord0님께 다시 한 번 깊은 감사, 경의, 그리고 존경을 표합니다.

Announcing Key Transparency for the Fediverse

I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of a reference implementation for the Public Key Directory server. This software implements the Key Transparency specification I've been working on since last year, and is an important stepping stone towards secure end-to-end encryption for the Fediverse. You can find the software publicly available on GitHub: PHP Server software: PHP SDK (client-side):

mutual aid/ urgent dental & pain prescription

hey, i posted the other day appointment emergency dentist appointment and needing money.

turns out the emergency dentist was demanding too much upfront, so i had to wait till today to call my dentist who i have credit with.

they cant get me in until Thursday, but im going to get prescriptions for pain and antibiotics in the meantime.

i only have $29 and im worried its not enough, it would be great if i could get like $30 more, hopefully thatll cover the meds (i havent seen the prices yet, or whether insurance will cover it)

im not a huge fan of asking for money, but this hurts so much i cant handle it. ill delete the post once i reach the goal

AI models can't distinguish between users’ beliefs and facts, which could be really detrimental in medical settings where patients could have incorrect beliefs about their medical conditions. All models struggle on tasks involving false beliefs reported in the first-person. spectrum.ieee.org/ai-reasoning

A thing for my earlier transition trans pals - I've discovered friends who are only connected by transitioning at the same time as you are kinda like "summer camp friends" or "work friends" You bond over that specific shared experience, but once that becomes a smaller part of your life you don't really have anything connecting you anymore. So the friendship fizzles unless you'd made more connections with one another outside of "we're transing at the same time".

Not to say don't have trans friends you can make it through that time in your life together, but if you ACTUALLY want to stay long term friends, make additional bonds beyond trans bullshit.
