Been writing code for a good while. Will probably continue writing code for a while longer.

  • musk has the peepee tapes.

  • probably more of a memento of "look what we did with pagers/radios"

  • "bread and circuses" has been an effective strategy for thousands of years.

  • you have to hold the phone in a very specific and awkward way to get a signal tho.

  • yet another rich asshole lying to congress with no consequences.

  • good ol catholic church.

    nazi salute: bad.

    raping children: good.

  • so they will have threads caught in pit and other threads stealing content. not only did you waste time with a tar pit your content still gets stolen.

    any scraper worth its salt, especially with LLMs, would have garbage detection of sorts, so poisoning the model is likely not effective. they likely have more resources than you so a few spinning threads is trivial. all the while your server still has to service all these requests for garbage that is likely ineffective wasting that bandwidth you have to pay for, cycles that can be better served actually doing somehthing, and your content STILL gets stolen.

  • if they are stupid and scrape serially. the AI can have one "thread" caught in the tar while other "threads" continues to steal your content.

    with a ban they would have to keep track of what banned them to not hit it again and get yet another of their IP range banned.

  • why bother wasting resources with the infinite maze and just do what the old school .htaccess bot-traps do; ban any IP that hits the nono-zone defined in robots.txt?

  • you're probably a good 5 to 10 years late on that.

  • is Zope/Plone still a thing?

  • you can usually bury it in a chewy treat or pill pocket. with bigger pills I break it in half and use two chewy treats.

  • it considers names as PII and refuses...?

  • In the end; the universe tends to unfold as it should.

  • I just wish I could change the screening messages.

  • I've been using Backcountry navigator for a few years now. works great, uses forest service maps and others. selectable downloadable areas and and a few more useful features including compass on map.

  • do you have any holes in your socks?

    no?

    how'd you get your feet in there?

  • NFS
