How to Solve: AAC Heavyweight M1 (Savage)
This is a long-form written guide for the fight AAC Heavyweight M1 (Savage) in the game Final Fantasy 14, where the challenger and their seven friends fight the Elezen succubus Vamp Fatale. You may call this the XeBin guide in party finder listings. If you want to experience this fight, don't read this guide. This guide is based off of the Toxic Friends raidplan, the Hector Lectures strategies used by North America Party Finder raiding culture, and insights I have gained from running thi...
This is why we play
Lately I've been playing classic World of Warcraft to get a feel for it and see if I like it before I try and go head-first into WoW Forever fairly blind with some friends. People have told me that World of Warcraft is good, but I haven't personally played it (or really any MMO outside of Final Fantasy 14). I've wanted to see for myself, so I dug in.

This model worked… ok, I guess? But it didn’t work for real-worl...

The power of science is staggering! Every day we're making new advancements in the field of generative artificial intelligence via judicious application of large language model inference technology. However, as we approach the next critical threshold in capability, we must look forward to ensure that we're not inadvertently creating a bad user experience in the form of mass societal collapse due to our technology replacing organic contributions in the workplace. As such, I am calling for...
It took a year to ship WebAssembly in Anubis
After a year of work, hundreds of commits, 5 generations of pull requests, dozens of tests, rewriting part of Anubis in Rust, the first compiler bug of my career, and at least three times making my tower run out of ram I think I have finally done it. The next version of Anubis will ship with WebAssembly-based proof of work checks that admins can enable in their thresholds or bot rules: thresholds: - name: moderate-suspicion expression: all:...
