There is a follow-up article: https://hal.science/hal-04173649

Hello, I hope other people will find that it is a good idea. Moreover, you can already use it from PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/python-none-objects/ Best regards, Laurent Lyaudet

Just spotted a typo "mulitple" in case the author lurks in the comments here :). ("You'll pay it mulitple times over when you need to debug why your code doesn't work (either locally, in the test suite, or in production).")

Hello, This is in French and it mixes Religion and Science, but I hope some people here may found it interesting. Best regards, Laurent Lyaudet

You could add a puzzle mode with a fixed set of instructions introducing gameplay elements like rotate after a few puzzles to make it easier and more interesting to learn the game. My first play, I got a lot of sub instructions and my registers had all zero value. It was somehow partly pointless: Should I rotate and do sub R1, R2, R3 or do sub R2, R3, R4 to get a nop somewhere ? ;) XD

I had it too today. I saved the page in my bookmarks a few days ago, looked at it this evening. I suspect it is visible to anyone, and the joke is to have you make a comment on HN ;) XD. I checked IWA: It is visible here: https://web.archive.org/web/20230629052606/https://verdagon.... but not on the first snapshot here: https://web.archive.org/web/20230622185954/https://verdagon....

Yep not even a random display in JS. I looked at the source code of the webpage. There is nothing curious. Custom JS is here: https://verdagon.dev/components/annotated.js and does only trivial things. Not a real easter egg for the client part. Maybe the easter egg is in server part that sends the HTML with or without it depending on hour or something. No need to waste more time on it, there is no funny code behind :)

SPOILER ALERT Am I the only one who thought "What's the problem? - The basic loop with xrange in Python tops at 68,000,000 (loop.py), - but write_to_disk.py tops at 342,000,000, - and write_to_memory.py tops at 2,000,000,000 " ? And then thought "Ahah but it is while loops instead of iterators! Iterators are that bad for performance! XD"

Or 1 - (a/b) ;) The rational behind my choice of a/b - 1 is that it corresponds exactly to what I was asked to display in an accounting report and use it to filter some lines. I would be happy if you can elaborate why it makes more sense to you :)

An unknown but somewhat common arithmetic operation

I see AIs uses in two types of uses :

- I never run this query : I have found a super Google, but maybe I will miss out some pearls available on the Internet;

- I always run this query, but I'm too lazy to have text files, bookmarks in my web-browser to stock answers that I don't want/cannot memorize.

It is somewhat similar to the arrival of Google, Unity UIs, Gnome 3, Windows 8, where they wanted to replace all menus with a single search.

It is the way forward to idiocracy if we are no more able to tidy our ideas/data.

It is like when we are child and we always ask our parents instead of look it up in the dictionary. It is regressive. It is already the case with Google. Since I can look it up on the Internet, I memorize less things. It is human to go a regressive/easy path without will.

I'm looking forward to a blog post "Use AI without declining mentally" :

- Interact with AI to tidy a corpus of tools/knowledges in personal files

- Delegate to the IA the tidying and research of pearls you keep in your folders

- BUT have a shared mental model of your data and their structures with your IA, like a manager may had a shared knowledge of the way the files were sorted in boxes and furniture with her secretary. Like this if your IA/secretary is in holidays, you can still work.
