This is such a neat example!

I’ve always dismissed AI as it’s not at all intelligent, until reading someone’s comment here on Lemmy that went along the lines of “artificial intelligence is like artificial sweetener - not at all the same.”

That is a disgrace!

nyan, 6 months ago in Wrong time prevents emerge from finishing configure step

For even more amusement, try correcting the system clock after fetching the source but before compiling certain packages, and watch ninja flail around because it can’t deal with source from the future, until it finishes its thousand default iterations and causes portage to error out. (My system is only about twelve hours in the future on startup, fortunately, so it’s self-correcting if you wait overnight. It took me a while to figure out what the actual problem was.)

Timestamp of the source actually makes sense! Thanks for that! :D

Easy solution; just wait for 5 years

Simples! Time progression should be terminated and running at the same time!

We may have broken physics 😁
