He’s talking about minifying CSS colors and I’m not sure if it is what I think it is.

Do CSS minifier really adjust the colors in the CSS files to get better compression rates or to reduce the number of rules in the CSS?


The author’s minifier now does so, yes. I think you’d have to research further to decide if they’re the first to do so or not.


It depends on the minifier (SVG optimizers do this too), but yes, they may reduce the precision of colors. I checked and esbuild will turn lab() into a hex color if possible.


Peter Thiel might be smarter than that but I’m not sure about the other ones.

Look how Musk treated the Twitter devs or Bezos any of his workers or Trump anybody.


They're all quite intelligent. And they're world class experts in saving their own bacon. Doesn't mean they have any ethics though nor any emotional intelligence after decades of being surrounded by toadies and bootlickers.


Smart is not equal to intelligent.

You can be very intelligent but have a blind eye on some trivial things.

I’m certain that some of them think they are untouchable (or even just are well prepared). We will only see if that’s really true if shit hits the fan.


We all know they have bunkers and we roughly know where they are. I got suspended on reddit for threatening harm to others for saying that a couple weeks back. But I don't think we need to raid the bunkers in your TEOTWAWKI scenario, their bodyguards will do all the heavy-lifting once they realize the power balance has shifted. But I also don't expect a SHTF scenario, just a slow creeping enshitification of living standards instead of actually implementing a UBI.

And then the survivors who band together to rebuild community instead of chasing some idiotic Mad Max scenario will ultimately prevail. And yes, they are blind to that other option because they wouldn't end up on top.


That's a general problem with procedurally generated content.

Remember that wave function collapse focuses on local optimization. The algorithm can’t take a step back and look at the whole map. That’s why you won’t get a sensible road network. Rivers are only slightly better when the follow height gradients.

What you can do, and this is also a general advice for procgen, is to mix in some templates before WCF runs. Often, a bit of post-processing is needed as well.

The templates can be hand-designed, or generated with simpler procgen code. Place a few towns on the map, connect them with roads, and then let WFC fill in the gaps to create a more interesting landscape.


Which is based on the board game of the same name.

The other way around.


Oh, wow, TIL. Both were released in 2022 but the video game already had an alpha release in 2021.


I‘m pretty happy with a self hosted Joplin.

Markdown, cross platform and good support for todo lists.


Joplin is quite good; I still keep it around for longer form writing. For everyday note taking I switched to logseq about a year ago. They're in a weird phase technically (in tye midst of a huge rewrite id the persistence layer) but it’s the first PKM app I’ve used that I’ve really gelled with.


If you just commit AI generated code without even looking at it it doesn't matter how many years of engineering experience you have.


A competing format that is understandable to probably everybody.

An ISO 8601 date is also comprehensible to anybody even if they never seen it before and have to figure it out themselves.



I said date. Not time, not timestamp, not period, not week, not range, not ordinal date.

Just date.


With the right context both are pretty good actually.

I think the emoji one is most pronounced in bullet point lists. AI loves to add an emoji to bullet points. I guess they got it from lists in hip GitHub projects.

The other one is not as strong but if the "not X but Y" is somewhat nonsensical or unnecessary this is very strong indicator it's AI.


>I guess they got it from lists in hip GitHub projects.

I see this way more often on GitHub now than I did before, though.
