Got my new capacitor. But why does it have four terminals? (A quick multimeter check confirms that each pair is connected together)

And the tents drying (no rain, but a very solid dew)

Does everyone have multiple password managers fighting to do browser logins?

I think snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef is the best value for time and money tourist activity in Australia. But I haven’t visited much of Australia, what are other contenders?

ChatGPT has an interesting behavior: it often gives you a partially incorrect answer, but when you challenge it, it can “fix” it. For instance i asked it “Write a program in Atmel AVR assembly which checks if a 16 bit number is prime”. It wrote a program which looked OK — but it asserted (in a comment!) that dividing by two gave the square root, and it invented a MOD instruction which the AVR doesn’t have. I said “Division by 2 doesn’t calculate the square root of a number”. It said “You are correct, division by 2 does not calculate the square root of a number. My mistake!”. It invented a non-existent SQRT instruction! Challenged on the existence of those instructions it said “I must have been thinking of a different instruction set” and replaced each with some completely spurious code to “find a square root using a binary search” and equally spurious code to do a division and check for a remainder.
