  • The first part is the best - a beat-for-beat parallel of the first book. Then it starts to deviate and gets kind of self-absorbed.

    The author, Eliezer Yudkowsky is a famous AI researcher with somewhat controversial opinions. You may have heard of his piece “If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies”.

    He’s also witten “Rationality: From AI to Zombies” which might be interesting if you like the “rationality” aspect of the fanfic. It’s really dense, though - I’d very much recommend anyone to start with HPMoR.







  • Not just Soviet days. Today, it’s expected (although not mandatory) to attend a course on ballroom dance and etiquette around the age of 16. It’s usually not in school PE classes, but evening lessons in dedicated ballrooms or community centers with professional lecturers.

    There are also similar courses for adults commonly available. It’s considered a fun hobby for couples.





  • You mean the thing that should’ve been there from the start? The thing that was possible since launch using Explorer Patcher or Windhawk?

    Yeah, I’m still on Windows due to specific issues I could never solve with Linux (although I’m itching to try again). If I was not able to have top-side taskbar with small icons, never collapsing and left aligned (as it should be), I would rather put up with any issues Linux gave me than use Windows 11 with its defaults.
