Gem simulator update for Mist World: (mwgame.wiki/mistsim.html)
On my lunch, I used GPT-pro mode to code for about an hour (maybe a little more) and get a Gem-aggregator.js into shape. This file collects inputted data from multiple rows of gem levels and counts, then feeds this back to the gem-simulator's main calculation function to use the info and break them into shards. This was quite complex to get right, something even pro-mode didn't do at first shot, but thanks to the well-commented files I was able to debug it fairly quick and fix bugs like, not allowing you to add multiple gem types for one calculation - this would be bad unless we ran functions for each and then displayed an appended result, maybe a future Todo but not right now.
Bonus: Calculate by starting gem inventory amount and level was added as well. Unlike just telling you how many gems you need to make for that level directly, this lets you enter exactly a starting level and number, so it's a bit different but simpler for those who don't want a table to do this.
Fixed: The simpler "Calculate to target level" function now does 300 attempts and averages them. This is to not get an overly-low count of required shards, as per this mode, we are not able to use leftover shards. That's because we are not going from a set count of shards, but rather the opposite, going to a specific level with initial shards until we reach that level.
These updates should make the gem simulator way more comprehensive!

About Stargate:
“there's a pattern that's starting to come into view here: previously announced deals and projects are getting roped into this ‘new’ initiative.”

It’s a stunt. Basically all recent and future AI spending is going to be called Stargate if it fills that $500B bucket.

Remember when OpenAI was going to ask for $7 trillion?

#Serbia 🇷🇸 is on a general #strike today (January 24). Please spread the word, international community seems not to be fully aware of what's happening here. This is important, not just for Serbia, but for the whole #Balkans. Thank you!

98% of Costco shareholders voted against a proposal to end its DEI initiatives, “The fact that 98% of investors voted against the proposal shows that almost all investors are not buying what the anti-ESG and anti-DEI organizations are selling.” Jamie Dimon and JPMorgan did the same. There’s been lots of press about companies jumping to appease the Trump admin. It’s not everyone. Companies like Costco and JPMorgan will have access to more top talent.

What does the job market look like right now for Django Developers?

I’ve shared some of my thoughts in a quick summary and left a little advice for job seekers too.

What do you think about looking for local jobs to gain an advantage over your competition rather than just applying to remote positions?

Worms broke many friendships, but it throws back to simpler times.

So… how about getting onboard the nostalgia train with a game of wormgine, an online worm-like game based on Matrix?
