the way being employed keeps you from video games and other various activities is so sick. genuinely demonic
To understand what's going on here, know these things:
- OpenAI is the company that makes ChatGPT
- A spider is a kind of bot that autonomously crawls the web and sucks up web pages
- robots.txt is a standard text file that most web sites use to inform spiders whether or not they have permission to crawl the site; basically a No Trespassing sign for robots
- OpenAI's spider is ignoring robots.txt (very rude!)
- the web.sp.am site is a research honeypot created to trap ill-behaved spiders, consisting of billions of nonsense garbage pages that look like real content to a dumb robot
- OpenAI is training its newest ChatGPT model using this incredibly lame content, having consumed over 3 million pages and counting...
It's absurd and horrifying at the same time.

Ideal work schedule:
- I show up and am given a list of cognitively engaging but achievable tasks
- I complete the list
- I leave immedietly
#me when I do “interview at my current English teaching job#little 15 min bites of activity scheduled out for me with little breaks and a free coffee lounge#then lunch then more 15min bites for another hour or two and I’m done by 3:30#while sitting alone in my own little cozy locked office room#I literally told my boss at my job review that I LOVE doing interview work#and I’m good at it so they want to put me on a new schedule where I get to do it once a week!!!#instead of the random clusters of interviews before summer vacation#work#queued

i know this means absolutely nothing to most people but basically all of the little web game things I've made recently (angels in automata, hex plant growing game, d.a.n.m.a.k.u., life music, sudoku land, the metroidvania style map editor, etc etc etc) are all entirely self-contained individual client-side html files that can be downloaded and run offline and have literally no libraries or frameworks or dependencies, because i'm an insane woman who enjoys hand coding my input handling and display code from scratch in vanilla js and having it all live in one single html file with the game logic and the page structure and the page style all just living and loving together side by side in a universal format that can be run by any web browser on any devixe. i'll even include image files as base64 data-uri strings just to keep every single asset inside the one file.
the sudoku one is gorgeous and a really intuitive way to play sudoku
i also really love the hexplant one
(reaching the purple aquare with the three exlamation marks is how you 'win' this game)
