The great misunderstanding about the infinite monkey theorem is to think that we’d be able to pick out the works of Shakespeare.

![Ad with picture of a radium suppository and text that goes
VITA RADIUM SUPPOSITORIES
FOR RESTORING SEX POWER
VITA RADIUM SUPPOSITORIES,for rectal use by men, are [illegible word] restorers of sex and energizers for the entire nervous system, glandular, and circulatory systems. These Suppositories contain a results-producing amount of highly refined soluble RADIUM, carried in a cocoa butter base. The radium is absorbed through the walls of the lower colon and is carried to all parts of the body.
Doesn't that sound great?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ajqj7bn2gcmmaramw342hxcu/bafkreiahtdptqzorx3qd2b7ww4crmytk2lzk5pca67vzvudqfzljmzayc4)
Mz. April Daniels ⚧@aprildaniels.bsky.social · 3mo agoWhen radioactivity was discovered, there was a rush to market for all sorts of radioactive consumer goods. There were water jugs made out of uranium glass, for example. I think about that a lot these days whenever I see AI products being marketed to consumers.
Good morning! 30 minutes to the peak of @jcon.one - at least for me. It (only) starts with a container projects in room 6
First day of @jcon.one was amazing. Looking forward for more and of course for my talk on Thursday morning!
Tried to create some Perses dashboards today with @cuelang.org. The type unification paradigm is interesting mindbend. But the schema is not the actual schema of JSON accepted by Perses but of its go API. For example it is not possible to create variable with default value `$__all`. JsonNET FTW.
You don't need much JavaScript to build a fully interactive web app. In the latest post in my Unpoly series I walk through the client-side capabilities that make it possible. #WebDevelopment #Unpoly #HypermediaApps #JakartaEE #ServerSideRendering
Unpoly Client-Side Capabilities
Web applications that use Unpoly will primarily use HTML markup and custom attributes to drive interaction. It is not against the philosophy to use JavaScript — quite the opposite. Unpoly offers a ver...

I hate the re-soloing of development. We were so close to learning social skills, creating community, encouraging creativity & purpose, & applying empathy. Easier to manage if each of us is so busy with our genieswarms that we don't have time to talk & reflect.

Unpoly Server-Side Protocol
While majority of Unpoly magic happens on the client-side the server still stays in control. Unpoly utilizes HTTP headers in request and response to steer both server and client-side actions

I started reviving my blog by switching to #Quarkus #Roq. And this is how I deploy it (nothing fancy, really)
Publishing Roq to Netlify
First step in resurrecting the blog was to make it deploy to Netlify. It ended up being quite straightforward.

Not the first time I hear this. Brace yourself for a wave of "agentic burnouts", in particular among ADHD people where the continuous dopamine fix resulting from agents producing stuff leads people to endlessly keep feeding them.
Addy Osmani@addyosmani.bsky.social · 6mo agoAI users are working longer because, for the first time, our tools can finally keep pace with our imagination. When output is cheap, your greatest leverage isn't how much you build, but the taste to know what is worth building - and the rest required to see the difference.

#ml Somebody explain this to me: word embedding vectors not only place words geometrically close to each other based on meaning, but also embed concepts in directionality so that difference vectors are also semantically meaningful across space? Is that right, and how on earth does that happen?
