Just FYI these data come from the pre-pandemic era, the latest “barometer“ report by the same people can be found here: https://www.edelman.com/trust/2026/trust-barometer


A few from llvm (maybe?)


79-95% cheating by source code look up, I sure hope these tools are not used in proprietary codebases attempting to reimplement anything GPL-like. Can’t wait to see the justification contortions of oh it’s fair use because my bot literally copy pasted the code, and the poor thing doesn’t know any better.

There are services like ORCID exist for uniquely attributing papers to an author. I think a federated review / publishing service could just provide a number of integrations for credential linking.
I was thinking about how such a tool might work over activity pub and I think it could work.
Thank you for sharing this, a great little TIL to go with my morning coffee!


The results … showed participants who received the money were more likely to be in stable housing …
people who received the cash …consistently reported … that they spent 12% less on alcohol tobacco and drugs than previously
It seems every time a study like this is done there is the same result: that people in less precarious life situations have better outcomes.
There is an urban legend that when the Swedish map makers came to Finland the locals would mess with them when asked what a pace was called and that is why so many place names have “vittu” or “perse” etc. in them.


I thought for a moment this was an “I didn’t have eggs” reference


This was one of my favs growing up too! Thanks for the reminder

Well done, what a fantastic achievement! Don’t let the self doubt gremlins in you did awesome getting here, congrats!


Anyone want to build one together? I’ve always been frustrated with the current academic publishing model. Parasitic “publishers” double dipping on authors and readers while outsourcing the bulk of the review work unpaid.


I’m sure you are correct and there are plenty of folks who would feel this way. From my perspective, post academia-corpo transition, I would love to share developments and innovations more widely and see others use and build on them too. But hands are tied in the private sector.


Neat! Could you expand on why someone might prefer to use this instead of other json parsing libs such as nlohmann or simdjson?
That would be the favourable read true, but if there was genuine transformative human work there would be no need to cite auto generative content. It sounds to me that they prompted 20 or so logos and then cut 2 or three together, and cleaned up the text.
The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:
The game logo is drawn from several sketches generated by AI.
Come on I know not everyone is a designer, but really? Giving the slop machine responsibility for such a key branding component.
I feel it is never about having the money or not rather that for them it is a moral issue that it’s preferable to spend money on fewer people (political lobbying campaign) rather than the same total amount or even sometimes less on the many.
