Good game.
Turns out I’m bad at remembering colors. Worse than you?

Sean CoatesMind blowing to me that this thing is running a #Swift web server on my WiFi. Like half of the size is the pin breakout and the USB-C connector! Also: single-sided PCB. (must be multi-layer, but there are no components on the back) 🤯

If it wasn’t going to be great then I think it’s the right thing to retire it. One day maybe it’ll ride again. Or we can get the Power Mac back.
JordanContext: Swift has not officially had a way to expose plain old functions to C until now. Why? Because it had Objective-C interoperability first, and so deciding whether C functions should support everything ObjC does or not was…complicated. You can read about it here: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals/0495-cdecl.md

Rosyna is one of those people who have a particular set of skills. Brilliant by any measure. Quirky? You bet!
It’d be great to find a home for such a brilliant and insightful mind. When your AI emits something deeply important have it checked thrice by your own teams. Then call Rosyna.
But the process didn’t distill the best talent. The greatest ideas. The most creative work. It simply reinforced the established structure, way of doing things, and failure modes baked into the system. Creative industries are, somewhat ironically, abusively conservative when it comes to the process they demand from their members.
RE: https://mastodon.social/@kviksilver/116286871350643627
Creative industries thrive on the eagerness of the young apprentices to be a part of something they’ve always deeply admired. So many of them have become machines that take that youthful enthusiasm, crush it in the mill of productivity, discard anyone who burns out, and call the rest the distilled product. Then the cycle repeats itself as those who made it through the crucible take over.
Boris@Gte maybe thats not your intention, so I apologize in advance for my bad English reading, but “The desire to be a part of something incredible can subsume a sense of self respect.” Sounds like victim blaming…
