    Thanks for the explanation. Gives a lot of insight. Sounds like you're really lucky to have him. It also sounds like you're working hard. Keep it up. You've got this!

    Your comment that this "doesn’t try to poison LLMs with fake information" got me thinking.

    Using correct information for the labyrinth creates an incentive for the misbehaving bots to avoid cloudflare. If successful, that solves the immediate issue of misbehavior. However, we're then teaching the bots that bad/fake information = legit source (not a trap)... which poisons the LLMs with fake information.

    Are we on a one-way road to LLM enshittification?

    Hello, Tea. In a very niche area (book covers), Michael Whelan did a lot to change what we see when we enter a book store.

    sorry about the hidden guts! i built the farm to get the wool for the pirate ship sails, and then added the collection mechanism to be convenient for the village.

    She addresses challenges in early computers and programming, and also shares her thoughts on the differences between leadership and management.

    I didn't think I'd watch the whole thing...

    New town center is located at roughly 70, 160. There are plans for bridges and housing the the cliffs above. There's also a deep dark very nearby. Also, I'm think villager breeding isn't functioning.
