Have you played flappy bird before? You keep pressing the button to get it to flap and stay aloft.

Yes, when I last played the button makes it flap and by default the bird falls.

On this game the bird stays level and pressing a button made it fall (without any up movement beforehand)


> it puts tension into the spring

Well it certainly put tension into the scene! Thanks.


Is there guaranteed to be a solution that encloses the cherry? Is Day 8 the first day to have a cherry?


So far, I haven't had the heart to deceive people with red cherrings. All levels with cherries use at least some of them in the solution.


The Verge's article here is the least compelling. They report it with the same confidence and style as their original article when the Reddit post first made waves.

I recommend reading https://www.platformer.news/fake-uber-eats-whisleblower-hoax... instead. It offers better reasoning, and an honest reflection about how close they were to getting taken in by the original Reddit post.


Yeah this article lays it out much better than the verge.

> “On the other hand, LLMs are weapons of mass fabrication,” said Alexios Mantzarlis, co-author of the Indicator, a newsletter about digital deception. “Fabulists can now bog down reporters with evidence credible enough that it warrants review at a scale not possible before. The time you spent engaging with this made up story is time you did not spend on real leads. I have no idea of the motive of the poster — my assumption is it was just a prank — but distracting and bogging down media with bogus leads is also a tactic of Russian influence operations (see Operation Overload).”

Crazy new times ahead.


That is probably not true if you are transferring from a community college after two years. It's entering as a freshman direct from high school that has all the barriers.


Thank you! Interesting. I didn't know that. Do you have any information on why that is?


A line I always remember (from Babylon 5) is: "When I clean my place, all I've done is clean my place. But when I help you clean your place, I'm _helping you_."

tl;dr you should ask your badass partner for strategic help when the entire galaxy is under threat, even if she seems busy.


Nice, what was the context of that line in B5? I don't remember it.


S03E20 "And the Rock Cried Out, No Hiding Place"

Reverend Will Dexter: "You know before I got married Emily he used to come by sometime to help me clean out my apartment well I asked her how come here so he could help clean up my place when your place is just as bad she said because cleaning up your place helps me to forget what a mess I made a mind and when I sweep my floor all I've done is sweep my floor but when I help you clean up your place I am helping you."


Thank you, great episode!


Helper, help thyself...?


sqlite does not have native support for a vector-like column type. Extensions like this and sqlite-vec build on the BLOB column type, and provide additional functions to let you efficiently search and manipulate this vector data.


I believe it's free.


It's been really fun following the development of this, Miguel et al have been really open about the design process. A really cool journey for both the UX and the backend. I recommend reading through past blogs if you're interested in Godot or SwiftUI.

Congrats folks!
