Is Jenna Barron the new Kent Sharkey?
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

Jenna Barron, Thank you!
To err is human to really elephant it up you need a computer

Thanks for the smiley Kent, that's still a non answer though. Blink twice if you are under a NDA.

This so-called benchmark is useless without further specification.
Memory usage:
Does this include kernel memory used by the application? How about virtual memory? Is committed memory counted differently from reserved memory?
Execution time:
Is this wall time (i.e. useless in a multi-tasking environment)? Does this include time spent in the kernel? How about startup & termination times of the RTL?
Environment:
How would the results vary if run on a different O/S? different compilers?
Compilation time/memory usage:
Given that compilation is performed once, while the application is run any number of times, this is meaningless unless one is speaking of differences measured in orders of magnitude.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Again, I apologize, I cannot reach the level of sarcastic wit that Sharkey was always able to get to. He is inimitable. 
Hello, AI, Are You Hallucinating?
https://www.pcmag.com/news/microsoft-tries-fixing-ai-hallucinations-with-more-ai[^]
Article said: Microsoft is careful to note that its hallucination correction tool doesn't solve for accuracy, but merely provides an answer with a source instead.
I've asked the AI to fix the problem you had with your AI. If this doesn't solve your problem please recurse (curse again).
Are You Going To Take A Tour of Space Soon?
https://www.geekwire.com/2024/radian-aerospace-ground-testing-prototype-space-plane/[^]
Article said: Seattle-based Radian Aerospace has finished the first round of ground taxi testing for a prototype aircraft that’s meant to blaze the trail for a first-of-its-kind, single-stage-to-orbit space plane.
So, you've had your "Space Plane" drive on the runway, right?
Well, I guess my Chevy Cobalt is just as close to flying in space as your space plane is.

My guess is it's either a Windows 13 Toaster or a new Space Plane, right? Right?

45 Years AgoCompuServe Connected the World
45 Years Ago CompuServe Connected the World Before the World Wide Web - Slashdot[^]
Article said: CompuServe, founded in 1969 in Ohio as a subsidiary of Golden United Life Insurance, began as a computer time-sharing service for businesses. In 1979, it launched an online service for consumers, partnering with RadioShack since they "were key in reaching early computer users."
True Story: I connected my Coleco Adam[^] to CompuServe but never had a subscription (15 & couldn't afford it) so I would just look at the menu screens and try to see if I could get any free content.
Also, the only number was (local) long distance and I couldn't stay connected long or I would run up a phone bill and get in trouble. Remember local long distance? It sucked.

Is it the 8008? Is that the CPU?
Or, are they calling the 8086 "the first CPU"?
Well, I guess I'll have to go read the article.

Can you praise this, and at the same time complain about resources spent e.g. on putting some clown on the moon?
