> oddly delightful world

Unintended typo, but every word is its own world(s) indeed.

Looked in spam folder today and the subject "APC Based manuscript submissions" caught my eye.

I'm not in the journal publishing space so I've not seen such outreach before but I'd guess it might be common. Nor am I in the want to/must publish somewhere that looks like an academic journal space so as to be spammed by Article Processing Charge collector journals/businesses (though won't be surprised if I see such everywhere starting now).

Wiktionary as the hero is the least taboo topic in the world for me. Infotaining papers, recommended to all.

I had intended to post the above when it was first March 14 AoE but I was off (early) by an hour, in addition to being late by 7 minutes. Anyway the hour I'm leaving this comment is within the first hour of March 14 in Kiritimati.

While now it feels like a long wait, onward to March 14, 15926.

The time will pi by.

Elegant and laudable post. I rate it 99. For 100, the word "tax". However, I'm not complaining as despite taxation/pricing of scarcity and pollution including cognitive (eg ads) being no-brainer ingredients, people in some combination hate, reject, and are ignorant of them (both taxes and prices), i.e., "still don’t know how to make it happen."

They have also reiterated many times a commitment to open source the compiler in 2026...looking forward to it.

I have not seen a rate limit in what feels like a week or two, and the site (mastodon.social) feels just a bit faster.

I wonder what changed if it isn't luck or my behavior (not that I'm aware of)? Something in the mastodon.social code (says it's running v4.6.0-nightly... so perhaps something not in a release yet) or infra?

Hopefully the better experience persists. Thanks!

Fun reflection and I'd like to visit a megacity on such a day without cars (or better for SF to become the megacity it ought to be and it have such a day). Car free street festivals are fun and scale matters. But this is also a classic tax > ban situation. We could have fewer cars, less pollution, and freely moving mass transit EVERY DAY, it's just a matter of pricing...and the political gumption to demand civilization.
