Ended up in this exact situation with one of my nephews (4yo). He did figure out a solution though; He made me call my mom on the phone so he could tell her that we were hiding.

playing hide-and-seek with 3yo son. just the two of us. he wants to hide together. we are hiding together. we are in the closet. it’s perfectly dark. we’re very cramped. there is no one looking for us. i am trying to explain this. he is laughing uncontrollably

To settle a troublesome discourse, I have provided here the most faithful and poetic possible translation of the beginning of the Odyssey.

We male sex. We
complex. We

fake horse. We
off course. We

sail long. We
hear song. We

pig crew. We
home soon.

Far and away the most annoying part of the culture of Haskell. Makes it soo hard to get beginners into the language because you really have to handhold them a lot more and it slows the "reading code on your own" speed to a crawl

[Talia Ringer 🕊🪬 @TaliaRinger]

In turn the only way to read someone else's Haskell program is to spend an hour desugaring their code so that you can see what it is actually computing

what's fun about this is that it's like a sneak preview of what the AI-in-music discourse is going to sound like in about a year. "yeah, artists are using the latest technology to make music. you're just figuring this out now? haven't you ever heard of sampling?"

@greatswordgf even better q, what's your favorite horror ARG?

[James! @_jak]

@greatswordgf I don't really know anything about ARGs but I do love regular horror games... Ever played SOMA? or any of the other frictional games?

"One hundred and ninety-three million acres of your national forests. An area larger than Texas. The largest public land agency in the country. Just handed, on a silver platter, to the people who’ve spent their entire careers trying to destroy it.

And they did it with a press release on a Tuesday."

Make no mistake: destroying world-class universities, like the US just did with Sharif University of Technology in Tehran, isn't just an attack on Iran but it's literally an attack on all of us, on all of humanity.

It's not Iran that "won" when Maryam Mirzakhani made her discoveries that won her a Fields Medal: it's all of mathematics, and everything mathematics is used for. Human progress won, technology won, we all won.

It's the same type of stuff the Mongols did during the sack of Baghdad and their destruction of the House of Wisdom: we ALL lost something irreplaceable back then, entire fields of human knowledge set back.

That's what bombing a university does. It doesn't just destroy buildings. It destroys us, all of us.

@eulerianham do Carmo is way overrated (at least as a first course in DG imo; really from a different era in a bad way). No experience with Tapp but friends who've used it to teach DG (and their students) seem to really like it
