Prompt: list the next friday febuary 9ths occurring on leap years

Response: Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a Friday, February 9th occurring on a leap year. Here’s why:

• February only has 28 days in a typical year and 29 days in a leap year.

• Since a month consists of 4 weeks (28 days), the day of the week for any particular date repeats every 4 years.

• This means that if February 9th falls on a Friday in a non-leap year, it will fall on a Monday in the next year, Tuesday in the year after that, Wednesday in the third year, and back to Friday in the fourth year.

• However, since the fourth year is a leap year with an extra day in February, February 9th “shifts” by one day, falling on a Saturday instead of Friday. Therefore, it’s impossible for February 9th to be a Friday in a leap year. The next Friday, February 9th will occur in 2029, but it will be a common year, not a leap year.

    As if they have fine controls over these models… Anyone who’s been playing with language models have seen this false confidence problem, and the way they’re “solving” it is by training larger models.

    They don’t need to enshittify their lower models when they’re already bad. Not everything that doesn’t work as you expect is enshittification. If we could stop overusing this word and focus it on the actual things that deteriorate over time, that’d be great.
