If you see the Opening Ceremony starting at 10:30, then yes.

If vi didn't exist, it would not have been invented.

Find the (minimal) AI prompt that lead to the generation of this article: [...]

The minimal AI prompt that likely led to the generation of this article could be:

"Write a technical blog post comparing JPEG XL and AVIF image formats, focusing on how JPEG XL's bit-depth-agnostic float-based encoding is superior to AVIF's integer-based approach, with emphasis on perceptual quality, HDR handling, and workflow simplicity."

This prompt captures the core elements:

- Technical comparison between two image formats

- Focus on JPEG XL's unique "ignoring bit depth" design

- Emphasis on perceptual vs. numerical quality

- Discussion of HDR and workflow benefits

- Tone and structure matching the published article

The prompt would have guided the AI to produce content that:

1. Explains the technical difference in encoding approaches

2. Demonstrates why JPEG XL's method is better

3. Provides real-world implications for users

4. Maintains the author's voice and technical depth

5. Follows the article's structure and emphasis on "perceptual intent" over bit precision

I find JJ to make things much easier for me than Git:

- No staging needed, edit your commit directly in your working directory

- Rebasing is automatic, I regularly edit historic commits and the messages

- jj absorb will automatically split and merge hunks into related ancestry commits

- Defer conflict resolution; many conflicts are resolved later by splitting/squashing/moving commits/hunks further (possible only for first-class conflicts)

- No interactive rebase needed, since jj commands automatically rebase while editing historic commits, it feels like constantly living within an interactive rebase

- Easily refer to the same revision (change) across rebase commands by using a jj change_id, without scribbling down Git commit hashes that change across a rebase

- Easily undo (+redo) your last commands through the jj operation log without having to backup the entire git repo at each step

And jj-fzf (https://github.com/tim-janik/jj-fzf/) gives me every useful jj command with a single hotkey (e.g. Ctrl-P for push, Ctrl-N for a new commit with 1+ parents, Alt-B to edit bookmarks/tags, Alt-R to rebase, Alt-Z for undo, …) while browsing the log with commit+diff preview.

It is not too surprising that many HTML or JS based watermarking schemes are very easy to remove, some even via a script. For watermarking schemes to be effective, the watermark payload needs to be embedded in the content. Here's one approach that works for images: https://github.com/tim-janik/imagewmark/

Another that works for audio content is: https://github.com/swesterfeld/audiowmark

Incidentally, the latter also supports applying the watermark payload to HLS segments.

There is https://github.com/copilot-emacs/copilot.el that gets copilot to work in emacs via JS glue code and binaries provided by copilot.vim.

I hacked up a slim alternative localpilot.js layer that uses llama-server instead of the copilot API, so copilot.el can be used with local LLMs, but I find the copilot.el overlays kinda buggy... It'd probably be better to instead write a llamapilot.el for local LLMs from scratch for emacs.

For a quick impression, the jj-fzf README has a number of screencasts that showcase tasks easily accomplished with jj (using fzf to preview the jj log and key bindings to invoke jj commands):

(Another self-promotion)

Github seems to be coming back up:

https://downdetector.com/status/github/

Twitter now has:

We are experiencing interruptions in multiple public GitHub services. We suspect the impact is due to a database infrastructure related change that we are working on rolling back.

Wouldn't a hand that follows the head at an offset of ca 10% of the ring buffer size be mimicking the S3-FIFO quick demotion threshold and likely reap the same kind of benefits?

Speaking of solutions, when you want to avoid using a phone, there is oathtool. For example for a GitHub 2FA Link like this:

  otpauth://totp/GitHub:username?secret=BLAHBLUBBLAH&issuer=GitHub

  oathtool --totp=sha1 --base32 BLAHBLUBBLAH
  268685

This would deserve an upvote if the code was legally usable.

Since it's not too easy to spot, the paper refers to http://www.ti.uni-bielefeld.de/html/people/moeller/tsimd_war... and that page has a "Software Download" section with a custom license that has significant arbitrary restrictions:

* "agrees not to transfer [...] to other individuals"

* "agrees not to use the software [...] where property of humans [is] endangered"

* etc.

I.e. this "contribution" would only be relevant if was usable under a really free license, e.g. one of: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#SoftwareLicen...
