I was going to write a joke about going to the shop, but then I remembered that the UK slang for cigarettes is a bit offensive

#

Like, going to the shop these days isn't too bad, but if I need something, I find that if I don't keep saying it to myself it disappears

#

"milk" "milk" "milk" "milk" oh, they have twinkies! *completes walk around the shop* *walks outside and is about 1/2 way home* FUUUUUUUUU

When I lived with my grandparents I adopted my grandfathers habit of having a pen and paper on his desk at all times, when I moved out didn't really often have the space, but figured it was time to readopt it; I use my phone for event scheduling, etc, but 200 txt files around the place are useless when I forget to open them again

I just use a checklist in Keep on my phone for quick trips to make sure I get the handful of items I wanted and don't just walk out with only ice cream

That would imply that I don't tell myself that I don't need to write it down because I could never forget something so important to my day

yeah i mean most people when they first hear what the website does would probably find it morally unaccaptable (at least that was my first instinct). tho interesting thing to think about is what would you would think if the roles are reversed (proprietary software being recreated by ai as an OS project)

ivory grove
#

Correct. I'd say that is both sick and suck. One used tech other used manpower. One put low efforts, one put real struggle. For the one who used tech: It is indeed sick, but that sucks too.

tired valley
#

i don't think it should matter whether ai was used to replicate or just human work (when looking at it morally)

#

like with ai at least you can actually ensure its a clean room implementation without access to the original

#

sure tho i don't think the reason you're replicating software should change anything about replicating being allowed or not. like when OS projects replicate something its done for openness and transparency, when big companies do it its done for stability and freedom from a software source you have absolutely no control over see the node-ipc example

#

gotta head out now tho

The legality of a cleanroom might be the same, but the intent changes the entire ecosystem. When open-source replicates proprietary, it opens a closed door for everyone. When a corporation uses AI to cleanroom open source, it shuts the door, strips the attribution, and isolates the tech behind a corporate paywall. One builds a utility; the other exploits a community. If this becomes the norm, the incentive to open source anything collapses, and then there’s nothing left for their AI to copy anyway. Simple šŸ˜‚

Hi

tired valley
# ivory grove The legality of a cleanroom might be the same, but the intent changes the entire...

i feel like that opinion applies to closed source and corporate in gerneral tho. like youre essentially just saying you think selling software is bad. as for attribution i would say that depends on what information exactly the one thats recreating has access to. if its just the idea along some vague specs inspired by the original, then by that logic every compiler would need to credit the author of the very first compiler. if it actually has access to parts of the original implementation then yeah i ageee. as for that becoming the norm, yeah not an optimal world to live in

#

but just taking the risk of trusting a random person online to deliver good software not being something a company wants to do is understandable imo

ivory grove
#

The MalusCorp model isn't inventing a new concept; it's using an automated pipeline to actively strip copyright, liability, and attribution from existing code lines in under five minutes just to dodge a license. That is what I think atleast.

#

If a company wants a closed-source ecosystem with zero open-source obligations, they should pay their own devs to build it from scratch, not use AI to launder a volunteer's hard work. But yeah, glad we agree that it's definitely not an optimal world to live in if this becomes the norm.

heya, quick math question i need help with: given an nxn grid and two randomly-selected cells, what is the range of integers X at which a path of length x ∈ X could be traced from those cells with any cell in the path only ever touching its direct neighbors (i.e., m-1, m+1)

#

lower bound i'd imagine is just Manhattan distance, which would be (y2-y1) + (x2-x1) with cell 1 being (x1, y1) and cell 2 being (x2, y2)

calm rune
#

Or do you include diagonals

austere ivy
#

no diagonals, but i'm looking for a range

calm rune

Then just anything larger or equal than the distance, or am I missing something about your path definition?

# austere ivy no diagonals, but i'm looking for a range

the lower bound is manhattan, the upper bound is n^2-1 assuming you don’t revisit cells and n is even. If n is odd then you have edge cases that I’m too tired to think about. Given d = |dx|-|dy|, then range should be [d, n^2-1], with interval d+2m, m = step number, 2<=m<=d (?) i think. Anyway I’m really going to bed now

the bungeecord chat library probably

sharp sentinel
#

most complex stuff just doesn't have chat codes in spigot, only via api

brisk acorn
#

Which means every spigot plugin devs will very likely come up with their own format each kekwhyper

If they want to allow the user to add those components as plain text in the config

Will paper ever remove all of the old bukkit/spigot stuff?

#

Like the big removal update or whatever

magic river
#

Honestly for those considering how easy they are to keep working probably not but so long as using is lossy people will complain which should naturally get people to stop using them, at least in public stuff

#

As soon are there are no public uses maybe they can just be yeeted but that'll probably be 2040

#

In a large plugin there could be a hundred such messages and if the plugin doesn't have some sort of standardized message manager (due to the ever increasing cost of refactoring everything, it's often too late when you realize you might need one), it's likely it has randomly hardcoded formatting codes here and there.

#

Instead, paper could realistically add a config line for these legacy codes and set it to false by default.

I never publicly made software signed by that so it doesn't really matter, just annoying

Minecraft itself is always backwards compatible with older saves since the MCA format was introduced.
Major plugins almost always seamlessly migrate data or are backwards compatible with it but this is not a guarantee.

hallow hull

Thanks for the help

#

Last wuestion. Is Java 25 safe to upgrade to if I do stay in 1.21.11

timber sentinel
#

there's no world gen differences between 1.21.11 and 26.1 so you're good on that front, since 1.18 they also have chunk blending which prevents those noticeable seams from older times

#

the latest builds of 1.21.11 support java 25

hallow hull
#

Awesome thanks

#

Would do it but my anticheat only supports 1.21.11 atm and would want to wait until the add 26.1 support

# twin lagoon means you have misconfigured geyser

Or maybe misconfigured paper's max PPS.
But there must be a way to make the server aware of the IPs of individual players, right?
Otherwise large servers would struggle detecting alts if all their connections seem to originate from the same IP.

there isn’t really a reliable way of finding alts other than looking at behaviour

#

oh my public ipv6 actually returns connection refused and not unknown host
and the private ipv6 fe80::62cf:84ff:fe76:104 "invalid argument"

the first result indicates that minecraft does have ipv6 support and recognizes the IP, but that my firewall or network policies are blocking it.

yes i am sure they're marketing all of the minecraft merch, food, brand integrations towards 22 year olds

For me it's every player that has atleast played a little while

warm anchor
#

They should pay more attention to attract new players. You can’t sell games to people who already own the game.

I would almost thing there are more existing Minecraft players that need a new account/lost an old one than new players

For me at least engages with other people and understands something about the topic.
And well, with that definition I think 22 is feasable.

With the opposite "plays the game" is not someone part of the community, so more 13-19?

And then there is the money target group with merch and ingame cosmetics ^^

novel sonnet

As I said, I would almost think

As average

warm anchor

My source tell me that’s wrong

twin lagoon
#

there are no reliable sources on that

I mean, many people who play the game are not even allowed to do that by age.

Even if the average was 22 they still most likely started playing on bedrock

found some paper on demographic evolution of the minecraft playerbase by someone at the university of north carolina and it basically only quotes unreliable sources lol

novel sonnet
#

Even Microsoft wouldn't now

hard stone
#

Just get the age of the payment method used to buy the game and merch /s

twin lagoon
#

microsoft can certainly get a good enough number on it

novel sonnet

#

-# Why would you lie about your age when pegi is just a recommendation?

twin lagoon
#

there's enough data / telemetry on most services to get a good enough estimation + paid research surveys with a large enough userbase

#

i think you can again make a good estimation yourself if you're just looking at how minecraft is marketed vs other games

hard stone
#

The age estimate algorithms are interesting and graving at the same time, in my opinion.

magic river
#

They can pretend they believe whatever you set your age to when thats convenient but they have an age or age range estimated for you based on behavior

even discord is predicting your age off of your message data as we speak

those random one off jumbo things samsung keeps making

idk just give me a toggle

I don’t know why you’d buy a giant phone in the first place

And certainly not why you’d then complain about it being too big

slim nymph

well i like big real estate, its just i dont like its vertical, wish it pushed more horizontal a tad

The Samsung phones are really tall and skinny

slim nymph

not like they give you a choice "P2XL vs P2XL but shorter"

P2 isnt same phone specs as P2XL

if you want best phone, you had to get P2XL

I know iPads are pretty dirt cheap now

Not really. I got the second one for free

#

They never billed me for it

#
