    @spillanemike@mastodon.ie This probably has something to do with why we here in the US are noticing more &quot;e-bike panic&quot; motivating laws to make e-bikes harder to use. Yes, they are more dangerous than not-e-bikes. Whoopie. Anything 90% safer than driving a car, should be fine.

    @munificent@mastodon.social Studied FM modulation in the signals/communication class senior year in college, cannot tell if this is true or a joke, it&#39;s consistent with the math. &quot;The spectrum is a Bessel function? WTF?&quot;

    @TheLancashireman @cstross &quot;murder&quot; but with &quot;could be you, next time&quot;. The IRA threatening Margaret Thatcher fits that definition less well than ICE deporting random immigrants, because there&#39;s lots more immigrants than there were Margaret Thatchers.

    Is Our Computers Learning? &amp;quot;The name on your account must exactly match the name on your reservations to ensure that you receive mileage credit and other benefits.&amp;quot; Global Entry number matches, passport number matches, date of birth matches, but no, if there&amp;#39;s a difference in the name, including that usually optional middle initial and/or full middle name, I&amp;#39;m sorry, we were too busy training LLMs to handle basic fucking database 101.

    #golang It&amp;#39;s a minor thing, but I am virtually certain that Renee French (artist who did the original Go Gophers) is not a fan of AI-generated Go Gopher images. That horse might be out of the barn, but so far, I have not used AI for any images except tests of the AI itself, so, not quite everyone is doing it.

    Dear adventurous Go users who are playing with SIMD in 1.26 pre-release. Coding your feature checks like this: ``` func init() { useAVX512 = archsimd.X86.AVX512() } ``` will yield not-best code, because the compiler is looking for guards that check archsimd.X86.AVX512() in order to (whenever there is a choice) enable the AVX512 versions of operations, e.g., mask registers versus bit masks, that sort of thing. (512-bit vectors will also force AVX512). #golang #golangnuts
