@brianb@fosstodon.org Call your fire department and ask what they need. They will typically require a bunch of cutoffs so they don't have to deal with a live electrical system.

New sort algorithm just dropped.
The LLM sort:
1. Beg an LLM to sort the following list *exactly* and WITH NO MISTAKES.
2. (optional) Beg another LLM to check if the list is sorted now AS AN EXPERT SORT CHECKER. Go to step 1 on failure.
3. Your list might be sorted now! It might even be the same list!
I'm pleased to announce that I managed to get the draft Common Lisp Specification translated from TeX to an s-expression based document format. I started this project in 2015 and finally finished it this year (maybe a bit late for it to be relevant).
The HTML proof-of-concept is at metaspec.dev/ and is probably the most complete rendering of the spec to date. It contains the acknowledgements, the appendix, errata, and preserves editorial TeX comments in the margins. It uses a patching system against sdoc to make auditable corrections and MathML to render the TeX mathy bits.
The code that generates it, and a copy of the metaspec.sdoc file can be found at codeberg.org/dlowe/metaspectre

I created bubblepop.lol a little over a year ago as an amusing webtoy in an era where cheap webtoys without ads or tracking are an incredible rarity. The only data it has is a counter that counts the number of bubbles popped globally.
It's sitting at 940k bubbles popped and it would be so cool if it got to a million in a year! Would you all mind boosting this and popping a bunch of bubbles? I've been told it's therapeutic!

@jalefkowit@vmst.io "Don't be evil" means to respond irrationally to rational incentives to evil. I don't think they were up for that.
