Real hackers use butterflies.

The primary purpose of TTL is to prevent packets from looping endlessly during routing. If a packet gets stuck in a loop, its TTL will eventually reach zero, and then it will be dropped.

I'd love Claude or any of the major AI chat interfaces to have a 'forking' capability so I can go back to a certain point in time in the chat and fork off a new rabbit hole of context.

ChatGPT has this feature: forking occurs by editing an old message. It will retain the entire history, which can still be navigated and interacted with. The UX isn’t perfect, but it gets the job done.

I don't have enough fingers for that.

On Linux, you can try Xephyr (https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Xephyr/, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xephyr). It's not as nice as DeskPad, but you can basically achieve the same thing.

Your perspective isn't unusual; it's a valid approach to engagement with hobbies and interests.

I play a lot of Counter-Strike, but I also find lots of value in watching professional players compete. Observing pros can be incredibly insightful: it showcases the pinnacle of skill and strategy within the game (literally the same game I play), serving as both inspiration and a learning opportunity. It's fascinating to see how far one can excel in a game, providing ideas and setting benchmarks for what's possible.

This blend of "active participation" and "passive spectating" offers new angles to better appreciate and understand the game. It's not just about watching (which I find pretty entertaining on its own); it's about learning and pushing the boundaries of my capabilities by observing the best in the field.

This is a tale as old as time.

[GPT-4 generated summary]

The case: The Supreme Court ruled that the Secretary of Education exceeded his authority under the HEROES Act when he canceled $430 billion of student loan debt in 2022. The Court held that the Act only allowed the Secretary to make minor changes to existing provisions, not to create a new loan forgiveness program.

The standing: The Court found that Missouri had standing to challenge the Secretary’s plan because it harmed MOHELA, a public corporation created and controlled by the State to provide student loans. The Court said that the harm to MOHELA in its public function was a direct injury to Missouri itself.

The reasoning: The Court relied on the text and purpose of the HEROES Act, as well as its precedents on major questions and separation of powers. The Court said that the Act did not authorize the Secretary to rewrite the Education Act, which specified limited circumstances for loan discharge. The Court also said that Congress would not have intended to delegate such sweeping authority to the Secretary through a subtle device like permission to “waive or modify”.
