My linux installs all have TPM enabled. …
@movq@www.uninformativ.de So.. i eventually made it to the end on this one.. was able to reuse code from days 8 and 9!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de so the pathfinding puzzle has arrived?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de you are probably right.. there seems to be a final 10 trend found over on Reddit.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de tossing around inline ASM for the AoC..
In the holiday spirit i have donned my Santa hat. (shamelessly stolen from @movq@www.uninformativ.de)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I wish they just muted them out instead of making it an awfully loud meep sound.
Around and around you go. When we sync up? Nobody knows!
I have been really impressed with the cool visualizations in pygame that @gereleth over on Twitter has been making. #AdventOfCode
@prologic@twtxt.net day 6 is super easy if you have int64 and some binomial theory. Skip ahead for the easy stars and catch up!
Oh.. Right. Need subtract and divide too for the binomial
@movq@www.uninformativ.de it shouldn’t need a full bignum implementation right? Just some left and right shifts for the sq/sqrt and carry for the addition right?
So today’s #adventofcode was solved with no programming. Just a bit o maths and wolfram/alpha
The word forms is part two. In this one you want to find the first digit and last digit. Think searching ‘1’ - ‘9’
Its the latest ryzen 7 chipset for laptop/mini form factor.
I am very surprised about the times others are getting. I guess that’s the difference between interpreted and compiled showing.
took a few attempts.. but i managed to do it in half the time!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de It took a little over a minute on my machine.. i should try to make it multi threaded.. 🤔

@eapl.me@eapl.me I have many fond memories of Turbo pascal and Turbo C(++). They really did have a great help system. And debug tools! Its rare for language docs to be as approachable. QBasic was great. As was PHP docs when I first came into web.
@jason@jasonsanta.xyz if you do see this.. Welcome back! 👋🏼
This day one advantage of code was pretty neat looking.

Code here: https://github.com/gereleth/aoc_python/blob/main/src/year2023/day01vis.py
Ahh I see how someone did it.

I could have made my search smarter using a prefix search rather than scanning the full buffer for each iteration.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de haha! I’m sure they had fun working around stuff like nineight
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Dang. Really going overboard with this!
@prologic@twtxt.net I didn’t have to do much backtracking. I parsed into an AST-ish table and then just needed some lookups.
The part 2 was pretty easy to work into the AST after.

My code is here. https://git.sour.is/xuu/advent-of-code-2023
Day 2 used lots of Cut and Split.
Oof. Its quite everywhere here in my area. Hope its not too bad there.

@prologic@twtxt.net oh snap!
If anyone is doing advent of code this year i created a private leader board for twtxters! 3463928-93bf7cfa
@prologic@twtxt.net you must not have any friends with plex shares. I got one.
@prologic@twtxt.net I long ago moved my evernote content to joplin.
Neat.. Gitea cloud for a hosted alternative to github and gitlab. https://blog.gitea.com/gitea-cloud/
Interesting thing happening over on Xitter. Apparently some of the women in tech accounts are being exposed as being run by men that hire women to pose for images/videos. They would be invited to tech conferences but would always drop out last minute.
Makes me wonder if maybe there is need for a sort of verifiable web of trust is needed where influencers can be proven as authentic by others. This will only get worse as AI generative content gets pushed into our feeds.
@darch@neotxt.dk webmentions are dispatched from here https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/src/branch/main/internal/post_handler.go#L160-L169
@prologic@twtxt.net its not.. There are going to be 1000s of copy cat apps built on AI. And they will all die out when the companies that have the AI platforms copy them. It happened all the time with windows and mac os. And iphone.. Like flashlight and sound recorder apps.
@prologic@twtxt.net the new product was GPTs. A way to create tailored bots for specific use cases. https://openai.com/blog/introducing-gpts (fun fact: I did an internal hackathon where we made something like this for $work onboarding. And I won a prize!)
The competed project is poe https://quorablog.quora.com/Introducing-creator-monetization-for-Poe which is basically the same idea. Make a AI bot tailored to a specific domain of knowledge. And monitize it.
The timing fits very well as openAI announced it just a few weeks ago.
@prologic@twtxt.net the going theory is that openAI announced a new product that pretty much blew up the project of one of the board members. So that board member got 3 others to vote to fire Sam.
I remember playing a bunch of Tetris style games with my sister we would find on BBSs back in the day. I remember one that was a hexigon style one where the falling pieces were built of hexigons and you had to have them fall in place.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I lasted for a long time.. Not sure where or when it was “got”. We had been having a cold go around with the kiddos for about a week when the wife started getting sicker than normal. Did a test and she was positive. We tested the rest of the fam and got nothing. Till about 2 days later and myself and the others were positive. It largely hasn’t been too bad a little feaver and stuffy noses.
But whatever it was that hit a few days ago was horrible. Like whatever switch in my head that goes to sleep mode was shut off. I would lay down and even though I felt sleepy, I couldn’t actually go to sleep. The anxiety hit soon after and I was just awake with no relief. And it persisted that way for three nights. I got some meds from the clinic that seemed to finally get me to sleep.
Now the morning after I realized for all that time a part of me was missing. I would close my eyes and it would just go dark. No imagination, no pictures, nothing. Normally I can visualize things as I read or think about stuff.. But for the last few days it was just nothing. The waking up to it was quite shocking.
Though its just the first night.. I guess I’ll have to see if it persists. 🤞
So.. Of y’all that had covid. Did you have at the end a night where for no reason your brain amped up to 11 and can’t sleep at all? It happened to me last night and my FIL the night before.
I went to bed at 8 and woke up full on anxiety attack at 12 and could not calm my head until around 7 am. Today has sucked a lot.
@eapl.me@eapl.me are ISPs still injecting code into HTTP in this the year 2023? I remember getting notices that my comcast modem is out of date pushed into websites back a decade ago.
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci predicting weather is literally a step up from the 3 body problem into n-body chaos. AI is just statistics pushed up into chaos. The future of computing is indistinguishable from magical incantations
I feel for ya. I have used tftp for two things in the past. Copying an image to a Cisco router to flash. And doing a network install because I didn’t have a flash drive handy.
Really?? I have not yet seen this warning. Using ublock origin.
Suuuuure. If someone could run a quantum algorithm on a smart phone that would be novel
@movq@www.uninformativ.de time to write your own browser? Or at least a fork maintained outside the EU?
