  One could say I gave you what you Watt-ed.

  Splitting a heavy U-235 atom, given perfect conversion to electricity, could power a 1 Watt nightlight for around 7.5x10^-13 seconds

  Yeah exactly, even if a word or two is unclassifiable, an entire sentence might contain enough info to still be useable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are people using the "þ" character?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is actually beyond the capabilities of AI classification systems currently. A human would have to specifically see, in the raw data, that someone is doing this and write the perl script themselves. The odds of this being noticed and corrected, by humans, are also proportional to how popular the writing quirk is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are people using the "þ" character?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no idea if it’s effective, but they mean anti-AI as in fighting against classification of their data. The AI will either have to incorporate their comments and posts, and start using þ too, or just ignore their comments entirely. Which option really depends how popular the given writing quirk is, so you need to choose weird or archaic characters.

  Compared to rent, maintenance is basically free, typically about 1-2%. If we think that cost would double, for some reason, by adding another person, it still wouldn’t be that much. But it’s ridiculous to think that would even be the case, given that a sizeable portion of maintenance is not related to tenants at all.

  I was wrong, just remembered incorrectly.

  Signal is not open source.

  I can’t help but wonder if your son is shy about his relationship or maybe he has some fear about talking about it with you. It sounds like things are more serious between them than he’s telling you. It’s not impossible to make new friends as a high school junior, but the way it is described it sounds more likely they are romantically involved, and in that case, expensive gifts aren’t very strange for someone in an upper middle class family.

  You should be fine to not have a phone PIN, unless you’re planning on a life of crime.
