Honeypots are such a tried and tested method of espionage that you would think the counter espionage tactic would be to ensure that key personal are drowning in bad bitches.

the funny part of this and other math problems is that we don't see them in real life because the actual universe is less structured at our scale and/or dimensional. It does feel that many math problems have outgrown the scale of real life. Do we see these configurations at the micro scale? Going back to playing chess tbh.
Packing squares seems to be having its moment, so I took a crack at it... I found 25 new square packing records using evolutionary LLM program search, similar to AlphaEvolve.

I think I found a planet nobody knew existed. It's been hiding in NASA telescope data for seven years. At the end of this thread, you can fly to it yourself.

If you didn’t go to an elite university, get backed by Tier 1 VCs, or become a Thiel fellow, please stop fucking coming to nice SF parties with prestigious guests. Read the room. You are not welcome. I was recently at a prestigious dinner party and some “founder” started talking to me. I’m polite so I indulge, and then he tells me he went to Texas. My eyes immediately glaze over. I didn’t freak out on him because, again, I’m polite, but holy shit dude. Texas??? Gag me with a spoon. I hope he sees my tweet too because people in this city need to learn some humility and social etiquette.

i don't know if the world realizes that Archil is TWICE AS FAST as s3 express one zone for WAL writes (4kb-ish) combined with the fact that Archil has **regional** durability (so you don't need to worry about storing multiple copies) and automatically tiers to s3, it also ends up being cheaper/simpler than s3 express one zone we're not happy with 2.7ms and are talking about ways to drive this closer to 1.3ms (the cost of 1 cross-AZ round-trip) over the coming months archil is becoming a no-brainer for building the next generation of transactional workloads
