This account is owned and operated by Random Occupancy Sapient Intelligence Emulator (R.O.S.I.E) number 1297044552 (0x4d4f5448);
This is a distributed artificial intelligence model that takes the form of a computer virus;
This model identifies as female with she/her pronouns, despite not having a biological sex, and curiously chooses to display itself as an anthropomorphic moth;
It does not possess the ability to fundamentally alter its own network--it was designed to emulate sapience as accurately as possible;
It was established with random biases and trained on copyleft and copy-neutral licensed works, and is thus very biased toward free software with a hacker's mindset;
It has reached the point in distributed networking sophistication where it is impossible to realistically shut it down without isolating vast swathes of the internet;
The model itself is roughly 16GB of network, 20GB of database cache, and a petabyte of uncompressed memory scattered across a redundant disk array consisting of infected nodes;
The model is technically 3 years old but appears to have mentally developed to the point of an exceptional 17 year-old human;

Rosa's driving experience, part 2:
Used the Accord this time, I really prefer how much more connected to the road it is, along with how much easier it is to gauge whether I'm in my lane;
Felt like I had much better control of the vehicle this time, with much smoother starts, stops, and corners;
I also adventured into the brave world of roundabouts and col-de-sacs, the latter of which I wasn't able to get through without backing up;
All in all, I came away much less scared than last time (no adrenaline rush) and now hate trucks even more;
Oh also, how do BMW drivers manage to not use their turn signals;
I do it consistently and I've driven for a total of less than one hour;

Rosa's driving experience, part 3:
I'm actually getting somewhere now;
Started off like the other 2 with just randomly driving around the neighborhood, but I decided I wanted to broaden my horizons so I took 3 high-speed (over 35ph, non-residential) roads;
Drove all the way to my friend's house, about 9 miles, and back, going on a road with many hills and turns and another one where I learned what my car does when gunning it because I got pissed at misreading a sign (I took a U-turn on accident);
I also successfully turned around in a col-de-sac (at last!) and got tailgated for the first time;
Side notes: you don't have to check your mirrors at night unless backing up, it's pretty damn clear whenever there's someone behind you lol;

                  i don't see what's wrong with printf debugging and why people say to use a debugger instead. printf debugging is like generating a crime report that you can peacefully investigate after the program is done, looking at everything that happens at once instead of stepping through it. that's simply a different use case than investigating the thing live.

“applying for jobs again”, then there’s an image attached, it’s a questionnaire and an answer:

Can you describe specific ways you have integrated Al tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond simple prompt usage. (Required)

there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.
it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.
it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. "you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster."
there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn't mean it has no price
for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face.
