I'm looking for a new hoodie (suggestions welcome)
I have a few requirements. It has to be black and it has to be zip up
Bonus points for hacker, open source, or privacy focus
I'm currently leaning towards this from @eff

@joshbressers @eff I’ll save you the effort: there is nothing, absolutely ziltch, that is more cool than @eff swag.

@joshbressers @eff I had an EFF hoodie, but then my son took it. It was nice.

@joshbressers @eff Make it blank, garment with prints is equally bad as protocol with clear text metadata.

@joshbressers @eff Oh, we'll make sure you get a @sovtechfund hoodie (black, zip up, pretty cool ;) when we have the chance to meet you somewhere next year.

@krakenbuerger @eff @sovtechfund I will totally take you up on that!

@kyle A hoodie that also turns into a backpack partially intrigues me, but also feels like the most Bay Area thing ever. Where I live it's cold, I need the hoodie :)
I think I'll go with EFF, you're quite right, anytime I can toss them some cash, it's money well spent

@joshbressers I don't want to risk removing a donation to EFF so I would suggest doing that regardless, but outside of that, I really like the Quikflip hoodie. It's pretty handy being able to turn your hoodie into a quick backpack: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PJ7GYQW/

@joshbressers @carol @effinbirds TIL LLMs can be used to predict the outcome of animal fights:
If an American bald eagle were to face off against a flock of Canada geese, the dynamic would change dramatically. Here’s how the scenario might play out:
Strengths of the Flock
• Strength in Numbers: Canada geese are social and protective of their group, especially during nesting season. A flock can range from a few to dozens of geese.
• Cooperative Defense: Geese are known to rally against predators as a group, using aggressive tactics like honking loudly, flapping their wings, and charging together.
• Intimidation: The sheer size and noise of a flock can deter many predators, including large birds of prey.
American Eagle’s Challenges
• Risk of Overwhelm: While an eagle has superior weaponry (talons, beak) and is an expert hunter, it could be overwhelmed by multiple geese attacking simultaneously.
• Injuries: A goose’s wings can strike with surprising force, and a flock working together could seriously injure the eagle. Even a minor injury could impair the eagle’s ability to hunt or escape.
Outcome
• If the eagle tries to attack a goose in the flock, it might succeed in taking down one bird, particularly a weaker or isolated one.
• However, the rest of the flock would likely retaliate, driving the eagle away to avoid serious harm. The eagle would probably retreat rather than risk getting overwhelmed, as its survival depends on its agility and ability to avoid injury.
Conclusion
In a confrontation with a flock of Canada geese, the geese are likely to win by sheer numbers and coordinated defense. While an eagle can dominate in a one-on-one fight, it is unlikely to prevail against a determined group of geese.
