> The fun has been sucked out of the process of creation because nothing I make organically can compete with what AI already produces—or soon will.
This is like saying it’s pointless to make music yourself because some professional player/audio engineer does a better job. Really, there’s always someone or something that’s better than you at a particular job.
If we focus too much on “competition”, then yes, you can just stop doing anything. I don’t know how common this mindset is, especially among artists or creative people. 🤔 I would have assumed that many writers, for example, simply enjoy the process of writing. Am I being too naive once more? 🤣

Und es sollten sich die Wolken teilen, um über ihnen nimmer endende Irrungen und Wirrungen an bovinem Fäkal und fremdgetriebener Lethargie zu erbrechen, auf dass sie zu erkennen gezwungen wären, welche Urkraft der irrealen Zusammenkunft letztlich Herrschaft über sie darstellen sollte: 𝕯𝖆𝖘 𝕭𝖎𝖑𝖉𝖙𝖊𝖑𝖊𝖋𝖔𝖓.
So zogen sie alsbald hin, zu tun wie ihnen geheißen, wohlgleich sie – diesem Schauerspiel trotzend – Trost suchten im einzigen ihnen sicher geglaubten Elixir, das dem Abgrund unter ihnen gleichend tiefschwarz glitzernd Erlösung oder mithin als Mindestmaß Linderung versprach, lag jenes doch in unmittelbarer Nähe befindlich hoffnungsschürend bereit:

I have another one on my keychain and a small one in the car. And this little guy is probably hard to spot in the photo, because he’s just 1cm tall:

I’ll try to implement the new hashing stuff in jenny before the “deadline”. But I don’t think you’ll see any texudus development from me in the near future. ☹️

To this:
Why.
Red for “activated” and dark gray for “deactivated” was easy to recognize.
Now we have light gray for “activated” and dark gray for “deactivated”. It’s clearly worse.
Why, why, why.

tar is from the late 1970ies), while trying to retain backwards-compatibilty, I’m not surprised that the UI isn’t too great. 🤔 find has quite a few pitfalls, that is very true. At work, we don’t even use it anymore in more complex scenarios but write Python scripts instead. find can be fast and efficient, but fewer and fewer people lack the knowledge to use it … The same goes for Shell scripting in general, actually.

What I love about HTML and HTTP is that it *can* degrade rather gracefully on old browsers.
My website isn’t *spectacular* but I don’t think it looks *horrible*, either. And it’s still usable just fine all the way down to WfW 3.11:
* Some blog post in various browsers
* Git repo viewer (stagit)
* Older photos of WfW 3.11
It’s not *perfect*, but it’s *usable*. And that makes me happy. Almost 30 years of compatibilty.
The biggest sacrifice is probably that I don’t enforce TLS and that HTTP 1.0 has no
Host: header, so no vhosts (or rather, everything must come from the default vhost). (Yes, some old browsers send Host:, even though they predate HTTP 1.1. Netscape does, but not IBM WebExplorer, for example.)(On the other hand, it might completely suck on modern mobile devices. Dunno, I barely use those. 🤪)*

> You need break the routine.
I haven’t really done that lately. 🤔 Maybe have another go at Rust (given its increasing importance in the Linux kernel)? Or Elixir, yes, I only had some very, very brief contact with it. 🤔
I just came across an old forum posting of mine about Prolog. That brought up some memories. Prolog is pretty alien, but I do miss stuff like that *because* it’s so different.
Just thinking out loud here. 😅

And yes, using the same timestamp twice will very likely break threads.

I made some preliminary adjustments to my client so that it can work with the different threading model. (And I totally get the concerns, this can be quite a bit of work. Especially in a large code base like Yarn.)
