I was giving a nod to Alan Cooper's book "The Inmates Are Running the Asylum": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44098.The_Inmates_Are_Running_the_Asylum

The inmates are running the asylum.

Do you have evidence of that? That's not what I saw: https://www.gimp.org/docs/userfaq.html#i-dont-like-the-name-gimp-will-you-change-it

I don’t like the name GIMP. Will you change it?

With all due respect, no. We’ve been using the name GIMP for more than 20 years and it’s widely known. The name was originally (and remains) an acronym; although the word “gimp” can be used offensively in some cultures, that is not our intent. On top of that, we feel that in the long run, sterilization of language will do more harm than good. GIMP has been quite popular for a long time in search engine results compared to the use of the word “gimp”. So we think we are on the right track to make a positive change and make “gimp” something people actually feel good about. Especially if we add all the features we’ve been meaning to implement and fix the user interface. Finally, if you still have strong feelings about the name “GIMP”, you should feel free to promote the use of the long form GNU Image Manipulation Program or exercise your software freedom to fork and rebrand GIMP.

Last autumn I stored several acorns in a 5-inch pot that was filled with potting soil and covered. I took the cover off 2 days ago to discover 7 saplings between 3 and 7 inches long. They are too big for the pot I was storing them in. Are they safe to transplant at this stage? What size pot should I transplant them in? How do I safely move them without damaging them?

It's about the journey not the destination.

TLDR sunlight hits the carbon-dioxide in the atmosphere and splits it into carbon-monoxide and oxygen then on the night side it recombines.

It's all good just make sure you have an up-to-date ublock-based extension: https://reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/17j6ygs/youtube_antiadblock_and_ads_october_29_2023_mega/

As of writing this Adblock Plus isn't working with Youtube but no reason you should be using that over ublock origin anyways.

This is what happens when you patent software, folks. You die. Let this be a lesson.

And the site's dark mode is fantastic...

Have you tried Immich? It has a very similar feel to Google Photos but with the advantage of owning your storage.

Think about it though. When people say they want to "code AI" what they typically mean is they want to play with prompts and waste electricity on garbage models, not actually write any of the underlying models that power AI.
