It doesn't happen every time I stay sitting on the toilet for too long. But when I got visual aura or the weird hot piercing headache sensation (followed by high BP reading of 150/90), it's always after scrolling on the toilet for too long.

I'd like to go back and play the AC series. Played from the first AC to this one, and stopped because of burnt out.

Now it seems like I've been missing a lot and skipping some games to continue to the latest games feels like I won't be able to enjoy the series.

Have you tried perplexity.ai? Using it to do some programming and it's quite good so far. It's basically LLM + Search Engines.

You can also use it to use different models (not just with ChatGPT).

Sometimes even run the code itself (Python for my case) and see if it's valid.

I don't think that's convenient for him. Let's email him for his consent.

Was thinking this looks familiar, and somehow it's related to Linux. So it is!

What's the tech stack you work with with that setup?

So, uh, how do you live in modern society?

Shameful is very much an understatement...

But open-source doesn't always mean working for free, nor does it mean people do it for purely ethical (or socialist?) reason.

There are lots of reason why open-source is attractive after discounting ethics and money. I imagine being credited for being a major contributor to a popular open-source project would mean better job opportunity in the competitive tech job market. The gig doesn't directly offer you money, but it does gravitate the right company that has the money to fund your work they find very valuable. In a sense, this isn't that far from how capitalism work -- credits are due to the people who brings most value to the society, whether the source of the software are open to all or not.

This is of course a very superficial statement to make, but I remember Eric Raymond wrote about this in more a detailed (and more convincing!) manner in The Cathedral and the Bazaar.
