Been writing code for a good while. Will probably continue writing code for a while longer.

  • "bread and circuses" has been an effective strategy for thousands of years.

  • which train will take me to my house?

  • all part of their "Final Solution"

  • I refer you to the documentary films "Idiocracy" and "Don't Look Up"

  • you have to hold the phone in a very specific and awkward way to get a signal tho.

  • yet another rich asshole lying to congress with no consequences.

  • good ol catholic church.

    nazi salute: bad.

    raping children: good.

  • so they will have threads caught in pit and other threads stealing content. not only did you waste time with a tar pit your content still gets stolen.

    any scraper worth its salt, especially with LLMs, would have garbage detection of sorts, so poisoning the model is likely not effective. they likely have more resources than you so a few spinning threads is trivial. all the while your server still has to service all these requests for garbage that is likely ineffective wasting that bandwidth you have to pay for, cycles that can be better served actually doing somehthing, and your content STILL gets stolen.

  • if they are stupid and scrape serially. the AI can have one "thread" caught in the tar while other "threads" continues to steal your content.

    with a ban they would have to keep track of what banned them to not hit it again and get yet another of their IP range banned.

  • why bother wasting resources with the infinite maze and just do what the old school .htaccess bot-traps do; ban any IP that hits the nono-zone defined in robots.txt?

  • but also the coldest year from now on.

  • you're probably a good 5 to 10 years late on that.

  • is Zope/Plone still a thing?

  • of course it is; 0% of players in 2023 played games released in 2024.

  • you can usually bury it in a chewy treat or pill pocket. with bigger pills I break it in half and use two chewy treats.

  • it considers names as PII and refuses...?

  • I now fill my wine glass aaaall the way up.

  • use a Norfolk island pine.

  • my problem is. bare feet = cold. socks (even wool) = cold. slippers with bare feet = wet and cold. slippers and socks = cold and wet.
