this lecture is .. I think brutal is the best way I can describe it. It holds back no punches against the opponents of marvelous pursuits who'd wish to commodify it all. I've read it listening to Angelic Process and I read this in my head as a banshee scream:
> The complexity of the universe is infinite, and the days of a manโs life are threescore years and ten. One lifetime, nine lifetimes are not long enough for the task of blocking every cranny through which calamity may enter. And say that we could thus triumphantly succeed in the attempt at self-preservation; say that we could thus impregnably secure the necessaries of existence; even then the true business of life is not so much as begun.

I had this feeling when I noticed I could just change +1 and -1 to foo and (complement foo) in a hopfield network, which is an implementation of (is dual to) deep learning (it turned out; they didn't know this originally).
Then, all the conventional wisdom about the disadvantages and advantages of deep learning seem to mostly have been artifacts of the string encoding being used.

Here's the most played games on Steam Deck for January 2026

~Let's make 30-year-old pocket organiser Casio Business Navigator BN-20 run some new software, part 4~
Recap of the previous episodes: our friend gave us a pocket organiser. As it happens, the organiser is based on Intel 8086-compatible core. It is related to Casio Pocket Viewer series, but unlike the PV, it doesn't have a way to "side-load" the applications.
So far we've dumped the ROM and tried to use it with Casio PV SDK. PV is compatible enough to kick-start the boot process, but the simulated OS crashes before it can even draw anything.
One interesting lead I decided to follow was the discrepancy between the CPU models in BN-20 and PV series: BN-20 runs on NC3020, and PV runs on NC3022. The documentation for Casio PV SDK mentions that a publicly-available simulator for NC3020 was a thing, too.
Can we find it? Can we run it? Yes we can!

What is the most optimal way to make a monthly calendar program? Why, of course pre-render the calendar and store it is a bitmap in the ROM.
How ELSE are you going to use all this massive 2 megabyte ROM?
This operating system is something else.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐ง๐ฎ • • •Genuinely surprised that #CachyOS keeps on trucking. I figured it would've plateaued by now.
I'm not sure how widely the handheld edition is used, else I'd be inclined to say that it's eating some #SteamOS.
But who knows. I don't know anything anymore.
