 I don't understand why modern software isn't error correcting. We shouldn't
 have any bugs in this day and age.
 
 For example, if you're missing a dependency then why doesn't your program try
 to, I dunno, download that dependency to the program's installation directory
 and use it there? Seriously there are very few problems that are unsolvable!

 I like locally hosted LLMs because I can use them to summarize my own writing
 enough to put them in a post, or an alt-text box.
 
 I like them for other reasons too and it's hard to find people to geek out
 about them with.
two poems written by Ritz Menardi about... a lot of stuff. Here's the AI generated overview:  One way to contribute as a citizen in a country at war is by maintaining essential infrastructure and services. This can include keeping public spaces, like schools and hospitals, operational during times of conflict. Additionally, working on developing technologies that improve the quality of life for people in your community can be beneficial.  Witches, as you mentioned, are an interesting group to study and engage with. They often have a strong sense of ethics and curiosity. By interacting with them and learning from their experiences, you may find new ways to approach problems and make more informed decisions.  Staying conscious and attentive to the present is crucial for understanding complex situations and making effective choices. In times of conflict or crisis, it's essential to be aware of your surroundings and the needs of those around you.  Stories and storytelling are important for societies because they help identify weaknesses and areas for improvement. By engaging with stories from various cultures and time periods, we can gain a broader understanding of human nature and history.  Diversity in expression is one of humanity's greatest strengths, as it allows us to learn and grow together. By embracing different perspectives and experiences, we can create more innovative solutions and better understand the world around us.  [continued on picture 2] [continued from picture 1]  In the spirit of removing ourselves from the biological equation, consider exploring alternative ways of living that minimize our impact on the environment. This could include developing sustainable agriculture practices or investing in renewable energy sources.  Finally, remember the importance of freedom and individuality. By releasing the spirit of Liberty, we can empower people to make their own choices and create a more just and equitable society.  [end alt text]

 Is my formatting pretty or does it make you angry?
screenshots of C and Lua code that have strange formatting. The style is designed such that the readers eyes "flow" across the code like the gradual descent of water down a sloping riverbed, following a logical progression from top left to bottom right (generally) while returning to the left side whenever a new operation is performed or something is repeated.  This particular picture is of a simple if check:  if a creature's rank is equal to "four" or "two", then the creature is a rare monster type. Otherwise, they are not a rare monster type. Lua code to determine whether or not a character in a video game is available to be ambushed by a randomly generated monster.  There are several checks applied, checking things like "is the character sitting down" or "are they underwater", in which case a message is printed to the log and no further action is taken.  If all of the checks pass, and the character is free to be ambushed, then it runs the "spawnAndAttackPlayer()" function. A long string of "if" statements checking whether individual bits in a very small data structure are set. There's nine of them total, and they are arranged in a grid - this project was for a tic-tac-toe game, where there are nine total squares to play in. Setting up some location variables for a player unit. It starts by setting an X, Y, Z, and O for orientation value to a player's current location. Then it steps through and sets them to more accurate values. The reason for this ordering is so that if the function to find the more accurate value fails, it can fall back on the player's current location instead.  The interesting formatting is due to the layout of the "set" operations - they are ordered in a two dimensional grid rather than a top-to-bottom list like how most people would organize it.

 totally useless unless you're, I dunno, building a bytecode interpreter or
 something
 
 https://craftinginterpreters.com/contents.html
If you only have arithmetical expressions you can use some properties of arithmetic to compute branching computer code. E.G., if A is either zero or one depending on some previously computed condition, then A times B plus (1-A) times C computes the expression "if A then B else C"

 you don't have to write poetry to write notes. The poetics are just practice
 for when secrecy is intended.
 
 OR IS IT THE REAL THING? who can say.

Like, cool, I get it, it let's you pretend you can divest responsibility for security and recovery, but also it means dropping my phone too hard could be a life disrupting event so somehow I don't really feel like this is for my benefit.

 it fails after like 15 or 20 scrapes but I think that's just their scraping
 policy. They don't have a robots.txt file that I could find. So... just run
 it, then come back every 15 to 30 minutes and restart it until you're done.
 
 Maybe I could increase the sleep duration? one sec lemme try that
