Well, this definitely isn't me!

"Snort" is slang for a "mixed drink," and "short" specifies less than a full measure.

About 100 years ago, a 'short snort' was a slang expression for less than a full shot of liquor. Pouring short snorts guaranteed barkeepers a little extra profit in each bottle. Also, drinking only a short snort allowed the imbiber to honestly point to his moderation. Years before federal aviation regulations, pilots discovered that alcohol and airplanes do not mix, and fly-boys who drank heavily did not live long. Soon, pilots jokingly were calling each other 'short snorter'.

A short snorter is a banknote inscribed by people traveling together on an aircraft. Sometimes a series of banknotes, of different currencies, are joined together. The tradition was started by Alaskan bush flyers in the 1920s and spread through the military and commercial aviation. During World War II short snorters were signed by flight crews and conveyed good luck to passengers crossing the Atlantic. Friends would take the local currency and sign each other's bills creating a keepsake of their friends' signatures.

it was this phrase that resonated like a giant bell in my head: experience pain for the first time

I wasn't planning to check till I saw your comment haha

Surprisingly not about using rolled up bills to snort cocaine.

Nah

that was difficult to read

seems like I edited my comment while you were posting yours. I was about to edit the sidebar when I saw that @cm0002@no.lastname.nz too does post citations as titles. Considering that you're the most frequent posters of the comm, I thought, i should follow. I won't be bugging you about the titles from now on. Do as you wish :)

please don’t put your citation as the title

what attracts you to that article and what, according to you, is worth other’s attention?

the interestingness seems self-evident in this case, but what caused me to post it specifically now was being reminded of it by a comment which mentioned it recently (which i can't find now) which pointed out that as LLMs become more efficient, it's unlikely that will lead to a reduction in overall power consumption as the increase in use of them will outpace the efficiency improvements.

While failing to find that comment I just found another one citing Jevon's paradox in the context of cost and demand for software development.

please don't put your citation as the title (seeing that you're not the only one—unless you're posting from different accounts—you can ignore this.)

No no no, adding more lanes will solve the traffic problem

Syzygy is my favourite.

I think it's ridiculous to not consider Y a vowel. Phonetically, it's almost always interchangeable with I and always makes a vowel sound.

In other words, creating MAGAs.
