Were you hoping for expedition 33?

They said “a single” face so probably not the strikeface.

It’s been maintained for over 10 years by now so it shouldn’t be going anywhere.

Saying it before something that is not disrespectful would be redundant at best and very confusing at worst.

“With all due respect, how’s the weather today?”
“I’m not racist but I prefer tea over coffee.”
“I’m not a pedophile but I think terminator 3 is a bad movie.”

it’s

while (true) {
    let t = Date.now();
    if (timeoutMap.has(t)) timeoutMap[t]();
}

of course. Clearly O(n).

I guess it’s meant to say “threadiverse’s finest”

Probably

So I wondered a bit how much it actually affects the economy.

“S&P 500” companies’ market cap is about 57 trillion dollars with a P/E ratio of about 30. So openai by itself is dragging down the total s&p 500 earnings by only about 0.5%. The bigger problem is that there are multiple companies like openAI, and a large chunk of the entire economy’s valuation is tied to the promise that all the AI companies will somehow become profitable sometime soon.

Nah, it was found sometime before november 24 2021, publicly disclosed in december 9 2021, and only used by 2b2t players on december 10 2021.

The small amount of sales of doom 2 today is not at all comparable to the massive amount of minecraft sales and minecraft-related microtransactions that microsoft is raking in. Doom has many modern sequels that are far more popular today than doom 2, while minecraft does not have any official sequel.

There’s a million illnesses that can make you dumber. It’s hard to think when you have constant back pain. It’s hard to think when you’re constantly tired for no reason. long covid famously causes “brain fog”. So on and so forth.

It’s not an ordinal number either

Originally planned to post it in this format but thought too much reaction within reaction would be bad (and including mr. theo ai glazer felt questionable)

I wish I knew

club penguin (it’s ok, the twitter reply formatting is impossible to understand)

64 gigs of ram costs less than $200 these days

the direct chain I can see is

“can you string words to form a valid RSA key”

“I would hope so, [xkcd about password strength]”

“words are the least secure way to generate random bytes”

“Good luck remembering random bytes. That infographic is about memorable passwords.”

“You memorize your RSA keys?”

so between comments 2 and 3 and 4 I’d say it soundly went past the handcrafted RSA key stuff.

I think this specific chain of replies is talking about that actually… though it is a pretty big tangent from the original post

if you know there are exactly two additional characters

this is pretty much irrelevant, as the amount of passwords with n+1 random characters is going to be exponentially higher than ones with n random characters. Any decent password cracker is going to try the 30x smaller set before doing the bigger set

and you know they are at the end of the string

that knowledge is worth like 2 bits at most, unless the characters are in the middle of a word which is probably even harder to remember

if you know there are exactly two additional characters and you know they are at the end of the string, the first number is really slightly bigger (like 11 times)

even if you assume the random characters are chosen from a large set, say 256 characters, you’d still get the 4-word one as over 50 times more. Far more likely is that it’s a regular human following one of those “you must have x numbers and y special characters” rules which would reduce it to something like 1234567890!?<^>@$%&±() which is going to be less than 30 characters

and even if they end up roughly equal in quessing difficulty, it is still far easier to remember the 4 random words
