Not too hard
Very disappointed that Lets Liberate Diversity @eclld does not offer any kind of feed from its website. I would much rather follow a feed than any other way.

Bah! Rubbish performance today.
Now for the third time, after checking out the dev branch, upgrading to PHP 8.1 and running composer.phar update, let us see whether we can post a new status update here.

OK, this is weird, but I find it hard to believe that yesterday's word and today's came up purely randomly.

@jeremycherfas In a way, I find it hard to believe that they could have come up like that otherwise than randomly. Remember how the iPod Shuffle had to be made “less random” because it kept doing things that didn’t look random (playing successive tracks from the same album etc). OTOH, nothing produced by a computer is truly random, since the system is unavoidably deterministic. Today’s answer would have been my first attempt yesterday, till the third letter came up pink. Today, I got it in one, with no backspaces.

@artkavanagh I agree, in my head. But my heart says no. The whole business of people not understanding random, so they have not enough sequences in numbers and so on, is fascinating. But I think @cdevroe should weigh in. He did say he was making tweaks ...

@ECLLD Very happy to see my dreams come true. I don't understand why my reader failed to pick up the feed automatically, but I have now added it and will look forward to seeing updates as they happen.
