Ironically, the prevalence of AI "tells" like that (combined with the ubiquity of AI works passed off as human-written) will inevitably feed back into more use by non-AI writers who think they're normal.
Old books don't tell you much about now in a great number of topics.

We're very familiar with this effect when it comes to the news, but since a lot of people are now looking at older information as some kind of escape it seems prudent to point out that old books themselves are of varying quality.
Moreso, how do you track said quality of old books in the modern age where their will be incentives to game the system (for example those that own publishing rights to said books). Some books will be high quality, but the information in them will be outdated due to changes in understanding. Other books might as well have been written by AI and transported to the past they hold so many bullshit claims.
The pareto distribution will cover the most popular books, but once you step into the long tail of research you've hit another no mans land of is it true or not.
Sure, and it infests the little free 'libraries' you see scattered around the neighborhood and often the shelves in the Goodwill, but a good used bookstore and a good public library system will do a bit of filtering on that. These places aren't firehoses.
> Yes! PeppyOS will be fully open source under a BSL license before the end of this year. Once the software is mature, everyone will be able to contribute and participate in its development.
It's so simple and it can run anything, and it was also relatively easy to have the CGI script run inside a Docker container provided by the extension.
In other words, it's so flexible that it means the extension developers would be able to use any language they want and wouldn't have to learn much about Disco.
I would probably not push to use it to serve big production sites, but I definitely think there's still a place for CGI.
Not anymore! Now the Salesforce status page just says:
> The Salesforce Trust site is currently experiencing a service disruption. During this time, users will be unable to access the Trust site or receive notifications about service-impacting incidents or maintenances. We will continue to provide updates here until the issue is resolved.
And the heroku status page actually has recent upates, although they are just repeating this every hour:
> Heroku continues to investigate and remediate an issue with intermittent outages.
It's not super simple, but here's how we did it for a long time:
All of your income that's not invested for retirement goes to a joint account, every 1st of the month.
From that joint account, you then move the money to many different accounts and/or prepaid credit cards:
- Day to day expenses, like groceries.
- "Irregularities": municipal taxes, school taxes, things that don't happen every month, like car inspection, veterinary, vacation expenses. You add everything in a spreadsheet that you keep, and divide by 12. Add some padding.
- Home improvements, aka "IKEA" account. Fixed amount every month. If it's a good that you buy to add you our home (coffee machine, chair, curtain, etc.), that's the account. If it's a consumable (gas for the car), use "day to day expenses".
- Individual accounts: each one of you have an account that you decide what to do with. Buying clothes, hobby, etc. aka "I'm an adult, I do what I want".
- Kids: There's always something to buy. Clothes, etc.
- Automatic payments are taken from the main joint account, but you could also have another account if it makes it easier.
This method can get confusing and you may need to move money from one account to another one when the wrong card was used.
But the main advantage is that it automatically budgets for you. You see the amount remaining for the month for everything.
Otherwise, you may think that you still have plenty of money to spend on the grocery, so you buy a nice coffee machine, and then the mortgage and car payments happen and you're left with nothing for the rest of the month to do the grocery.
The main goals we had when using this method were to never use a credit card (and lose track of how much money we have), and also accommodate for the discrepancy in our revenues at the time.
