Should I finally learn how to use Emacs? I feel like the larger memory footprint is no longer an issue.

"Suspended" is trending on Twitter right now. All of the suspended accounts I'm finding (thanks archive.org) have "@ElonJet" in one of their last tweets. A few notable accounts were just suspended, like Twitter just turned on "Elon's Jet" rule today, or just got out of a meeting about whether or not they should suspend said accounts.

I find it a little odd about how I retweeted a tweet about Mastodon's Twitter account being suspended, yet I have no interactions with the RT... Tweets are still being shadowbanned on Twitter. This has happened before to quite a few of my tweets, but this is the first time I've witnessed a RT being shadowbanned.

BTW, if you tweet anything in reference to accounts or websites that track Elon's jet, your account may become suspended.

UPDATE (because we can do that here): 1 hour has passed and this tweet still has no interaction with it. For having over 3k followers, this is certainly not normal. The tweet is available if you go to my profile directly, but I'm guessing it's not showing up in feeds.

If good Python code looks pythonic, then good Go code should certainly look gothic.

Important note for educators about now: it looks like GPT-2 output detectors can detect #chatgpt output pretty well.

Edit: Changed my mind - it ID'd an excerpt from my own book as AI-written. A false positive could ruin a student's career.
Does anyone know if it's possible to make boosted posts appear normal without being hidden? This is the most frustrating thing I've found about Mastodon. I'd rather not see boosted posts at all if I have to expand them to read.

@janellecshane I'm torn on what to think about this. I had an English teacher who seemed to be more interested in catching students plagiarizing than actually teaching. I wrote an excellent paper with proper sourcing and was accused of plagiarism, as it was written at a "college level". Since my teacher couldn't prove that I plagiarized, or otherwise paid someone to write my paper, she deducted my grade on every assignment afterwards. I ended up having to go to summer school to make up for it. It was extremely frustrating as I had put a great deal of effort into the paper, and had a sense of pride for what I had accomplished. To this day, I think it was one of my best works.

While I think tools like this are interesting, it's a slippery slope if someone where to partially derive their work from an AI program, or if their non-AI source had in fact derived from an AI source. Educators could use something like this without using a rational threshold to mark works as plagiarized.

I couldn't find anything about this in English.

But summarizing it, the article says that during the pandemic lockdowns in Santiago de Compostela, there was a chance to study pavement temperature. It was discovered that in places where the grass and moss was not removed, the temperature was up to 20 degrees lower than in places where it was.

More moss and grass make our physical spaces more liveable in these times of #ClimateCrisis.
