Das vegane Sushi heute war ganz schlimm. Zum Glück haben mich KollegInnen begleitet.

Eine Auswahl an kreativem veganem Sushi auf einem dunklen Teller. Zu sehen sind pflanzliche Rolls mit Creme und Kapern, Gemüserollen im Mandelmantel und eine knusprige Tempura-Rolle. Garniert mit Wasabi, eingelegtem Ingwer und einer essbaren Blüte.

Drei knusprige vegane Gyoza, verfeinert mit einer herzhaften Orangen-Sauce auf einer schwarzen Platte, serviert mit einer Schale gesalzener Edamame.

Tsume problems with long winning lines will be posted here daily. They are primarily created as study material for myself and are generated algorithmically, with solutions checked for optimality and uniqueness. I plan to compile them later into books available for download in various formats (PDF and EPUB).

This is a separate account from my main one, dedicated to this side project (see @baruchel for my main account).

Problems will also be available as an RSS feed: https://mastodon.social/@minishogi.rss

Wow, this is cray cray, proving in a major way the meme started by xkcd is absolutely true. Seems that "sudo", the function that allows super user administration level commands to be enabled on millions of computers running Linux & BSD, including most of the servers that enable vital data centers and "clouds", has actually been maintained over the past 33 years by a single developer. And that this developer is now asking for help, and/or cash money, to allow them to continue to maintain it. Here's hoping that some peeps step up, because that is way too important of a thing to let become insecure or buggy.

Fellow fedizens! As decreed by https://xkcd.com/843/ some fifteen years ago, it is once again time to spend the morning reading through the Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_misconceptions.

#xkcd #xkcd843 #misconceptions #Wikipedia

Miss Lenhart stands in front of a blackboard with a laptop in her hand, saying: Okay, middle school students, it’s the first Tuesday in February. This means that by law and custom, we must spend the morning reading through the Wikipedia article List of common misconceptions, so you can spend the rest of your lives being a little less wrong. The guests at every party you’ll ever attend thank us in advance.

Some genius made his AI remind him to get milk in the morning and it used up his $20 account balance overnight because it kept checking if it was morning every 30 minutes. Lmao. “AI”

OpenClaw is interesting, but will also drain your wallet if you aren't careful.
Last night around midnight I loaded my Anthropic API account with $20, then went to bed.
When I woke up, my Anthropic balance was $O.
Opus was checking "is it daytime yet?" every 30 minutes, paying $0.75 each time to conclude "no, it's still night."
Doing literally nothing, OpenClaw spent the entire balance. How?

The "Heartbeat" cron job, even though literally the only thing I had going was one silly reminder, ("remind me tomorrow to get milk")
1. Sent ~120,000 tokens of context to Opus
4.5
2. Opus read HEARTBEAT md, thought about reminders
3. Replied "HEARTBEAT_OK"
4. Cost: ~$0.75 per heartbeat (cache writes)
The damage:
- Overnight = ~25+ heartbeats
- 25 × $0.75 = ~$18.75 just from heartbeats alone
- Plus regular conversation = ~$20 total
The absurdity: Opus was essentially checking
"is it daytime yet?" every 30 minutes, paying $0.75 each time to conclude "no, it's still night."

A fantastic soundtrack for a fantastic video-game, namely Rakuen; game and music by Laura Shigihara.
The game is a top-down adventure game, but focused on exploring and story-telling instead of fighting. The story is very emotional, tears were shed.

To pick a standout track I'll go with the "main hub" music: https://laurashigihara.bandcamp.com/track/these-grey-walls

Todd C. Miller has been maintaining the #sudo codebase for over 30 years. This is exactly one of those cases where an entire critical infrastructure is held together by the work of a single volunteer who apparently can’t find anyone willing to sponsor him for some financial support. #opensource #linux #foss #GNU
