Somewhere, long ago (in the b.u. ages, Before URLs) I read that crows can count to 4, 5+ is 'many'.
The way they learned this: This farmer was so much plagued by crows eating his cherries off the trees that he wanted to shoot them. But as soon as he arrived with his shotgun, the crows flew away, but returned once he disappeared.
He had this shed in his cherry orchard, and could shoot the crows from a small window. But the birds saw the man enter the shed, not coming out, so the danger was still there: They did not return to the fruit until the man had left the shed and gone away.
So the farmer got help from his friends: Two guys entered the shed, one left. The crows kept count: There is still one guy left, the danger is not over. Three guys in, two out: Still dangerous. Four in, three out: Same. Five (/many) in, four out: More than four had entered, only four left, so return to the trees is still dangerous.
Not until six (i.e. "many") guys entered the shed and five ("many") left the shed did the crows loose count: Many had entered, many had left, then we are safe! The fruit farmer got within shooting range of the range, and managed to get the crows off his farm.
(I am sorry that I cannot provide even a reference to a printed version of this story; I don't remember where I read it. It fascinated me enough for it to stick in my memory even without a reference  )

In an image recently taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, a proliferation of stars in the globular cluster Terzan 12 shine through interstellar gas and dust, making the entire image glow with activity. "My God, it's full of stars"
I'm so glad they included the context image, so you can look at it yourself

Should we replace the "find a needle in a haystack" with "find the A3u49eT star in the cluster Terzan 12" ?

Well... looking at what has happened with the printers and video cards during so much time after every windows update...

State of WebAssembly 2023 study finds mostly optimism among software developers about future adoption of Wasm, but also doubts and challenges. It's almost like they've been promised this stuff before

You can now make an AI clone of yourself — or anyone else, living or dead — with Delphi | VentureBeat[^]
The boundaries between science fiction and reality continue to blur as US startup Delphi, named after the Ancient Greek oracle, announces a $2.7M funding round and the launch of its AI digital cloning service. This innovative technology allows users to upload their digital communications, ranging from emails and chat transcripts to YouTube videos and audio files, and Delphi will create an AI chatbot that closely mimics the user's personality, writing style, and even voice. This AI clone can be deployed on various platforms, including websites and Slack, and can even answer phone calls, providing a unique and engaging way to interact with technology.

Random thoughts about this.
1. Embarcadero might have something to say about the name.
2. Visiting the website, the first main image is disturbingly reminiscent of the room Edgar G Robinson goes into to die in Soylent Green.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

The weakest part of remote / part-time work research is how we assess productivity. Developers never like working next to a ruler
|
|
|
|

And there is no ruler to really measure it.
You might spend days to track down a bug to solve it with some letters or couple of lines.
Is that guy less productive than someone that wrote 1000 lines (and introduced the bug)?

I hope he got a fair bit of change from KUKA for that. It's quite well done.
