Hm, I thought that if I include a link to another post in my own post, then this is equivalent to a quote? But apparently it's not? Can I make a quote without explicitly going through the "quote" function in the interface?
I think this just-published paper is a prime example of what our @jovi journal is about: over three review rounds and more than one year, the reviewers worked _together_ with the author to improve the paper until it was ready to publish. And they are rightfully proud of their contribution, so they signed their own name to their reviews (which are also published along with the paper). Kudos! 🥳
@eniko thanks, now I have singing Vikings stuck in my head 😑😅
Don't know if this is an old hat for most people here, but I just had a really fun time tracking down a murder suspect using nothing but shell commands:
@fleaz This is the way.
@starsider @lcamtuf Sooo close on the bridge rectifier. Never mind the short circuits, I'm sure you have a good fuse in your house 😬
@lcamtuf Big fan of the "electronic detection circuit". Yessir, there's electronics present for sure, we have all the electronics, we can throw in some more if you want!
@lauren Hmm, how convenient to have a way to embed arbitrary plaintext prompts in base64 encoded images: https://eigenmagic.net/@drew/115870625879148796
(with a hat-tip to @drew )
@krono @sigchi Good point, and CRediT (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/leap.1210) even lists "Funding Acquisition" as a potential contribution (somewhat to my surprise, I admit).
OTOH, I also seem to remember that all authors are required to assume joint responsibility for the content of their paper, and I sincerely doubt that person could even name all 37 paper titles they have co-authored...
@JensHannemann Ooh nice, enjoy! Protip: don't pour rum directly from the bottle onto the flame. Friend of mine did that once, ended shooting a little fountain of burning rum over the table 🫣
@krono @sigchi I've seen that as well, but maybe 20 years ago - I was sort of hoping that practice isn't quite as common anymore, but perhaps not 🙄
Apparently, there is one person who co-authored 37 papers for #chi2026 😑 This is rather ridiculous, what sort of contribution per paper can you expect here? Probably time for a cap on how many papers you can be author on. /cc @sigchi

@cstross as long as they still have Fox News... 🙄
@Lapizistik Count me in 💪
@woutern @pluralistic I've said it before: AI is great at letting middle management cosplay as CEOs 🤷
@mattesilver I'm aware. Didn't have the time yet to migrate to Librewolf.
If you're using #Firefox (yes, I still do - despite their recent AI shenanigans, they are still a much better option for privacy than Chrome IMHO), you can use its local translation model to translate any highlighted text - just add a hotkey for the following command:
firefox "about:translations#src=detect&trg=en&text=$(wl-paste --primary | jq -sRr @uri)"
(if you're still on Xorg, replace wl-paste --primary with xclip -o)
@jeridansky Confirmation bias is a bitch. 🤷
@crazyeddie for the record, it seems this was a hoax 😑
