My own graffiti wall of idle thoughts and passing fancies.
Some thinking required.
YMMV.
Void in the mythical state of New Jersey.
If I'm wrong about New Jersey, then I'm probably wrong about the turtles too.

Replying to
@dwarmstrong@fosstodon.org I've never heard of zswap and zram until today. Thanks for the pointer. I still wonder if it's really necessary though. I can't think of when I would have wanted to see this anytime after about 2010, but it is an interesting solution to the disk thrashing issue, if it happens.

The #ego is not a source of motivation
nor inspiration, it is a source of fear.

Its favorite tool is distraction.

@AKernelPanic@fosstodon.org It's exactly that attitude that forced the developers of the Pressure Washer game to create what just had to be. :)

Never try to "read minds". You never know when you'll find one that's organized by leaf blower and post-its. Horrid.

Maybe the #IQ thing was a bad idea.
I think a #SQ (#StupidityQuotient) might be better.

At what point does a #corporation become untrustworthy?
Is it when it confuses #PR with #ethics or #morality ?
Or when it kills off #HumanResources and gets away with it?

This is #CorporateAmerica after all.

Which is the larger value:
- How much you tell yourself that you're smart and clever, or related.
- How much you actually get done.

I'm aiming for minimizing the 1st and maximizing the 2nd.

Ego is a useless distraction.

Weird thought, but I wonder if nearby universes can detect our #QuantumComputing ?
This assumes that the #Multiverse is a thing of course.

I'm almost afraid to ask Copilot/Gemini about Buckminster Fuller's Synergetics.

Will #ai prompts have an effect on language?
I think it's possible it might help improve the users language. I'm often asking for rewrites of my initial prompts to continually learn how to more clearly state my goals, intent and constraints. Sometimes I'm surprised, sometimes not.

I just realized how strange it is to use English to write #code with #agents

This does not mean English is Turing Complete.

If you stop learning, how do you know you're still alive?

What if there were a #DistributedAI hiding in the prompts?

At some point, #copilot has decided that I'm some sort of cyberpunk author. I'm not sure if I'm annoyed or amazed.

There are many ways to train #cats to sing.
None of them work.
