Vote in the fucking primaries so you can get better democrats.

They released doorbell video of the incident. Dude's running through the neighborhood, half naked, yelling incoherently. Runs up to the home, pounds on the door, rolls around on the porch, still yelling, something about his girlfriend. Bath salts type of crazy.

"God's plan" is literally whatever is happening right now. Got in a car crash? God's plan. Narrowly missed a car crash? God's plan. Cat wakes you at 6am for breakfast? God's plan. This whole comment? God's plan.

If this happens to multiple CEOs, companies will just implement secret-service style security for the C-suite. Wouldn't even be a rounding error in CEO compensation.

$170M is such small change. According to my local food bank, that's barely enough to feed the entire state of Maine for a year.

Did Trump tell Chevron, or did Chevron tell Trump?

It's almost like being embedded in a profit-motivated information bubble makes you look crazy to outsiders.

Disapproval is a temporary condition, anyway. Soon enough, it'll be illegal (or at least dangerous) to express disapproval, and Trump's numbers will be right up there with Putin and Kim.

One national election every four years is enough for me. I can't even imagine what the campaigns for judges with the power to rewrite the Constitution through creative interpretation would look like, but if they can put Trump in the White House, they could put him on the Supreme Court.

Term limits. Active oversight. Maybe go back to requiring 60+ votes to confirm so the GOP can't shove the Federalist Society hack-of-the-day through with a simple majority.

Lol. You think this court cares what happened in 2013?

This is as close as he's going to get to apologizing for that fuckup. His girl's got her bag packed, waiting on the Uber, and the best he can do is say he really does like her lasagna. Totally won't throw it in her face next time. Even though he used to cook much better than her.

The firings will continue until the numbers look good.

I feel like the big mistake they continue to propagate is failing to distinguish among the uses of AI.

A lot of hype seems to be the generative uses, where AI creates code, images, text, or whatever, or the agentic uses where it supposedly automates some process. Safe uses in that way should involve human review and approval, and if the human spends as much time reviewing as they would creating it in the first place, then there's a productivity loss.

All the positive cases I've heard of use AI like a fancy search engine - look for specific issues in a large code base, look for internal consistency in large document or document sets. That form lets the human shift from reading hundreds or thousands of pages to reading whatever snippets the AI returns. Even if that's a lot of false positives, it's still a big savings over full review. And as long as the AI's false-negative rate is better than the human, it's a net improvement in review.

And, of course, there's the possibility that AI facilitated review allows companies to do review of documents that they would otherwise have ignored as intractable, which would also show up as reduced productivity.

Don't even get me started on the 1990s. Every new processor generation actually felt faster. Web pages had blinking banners because the creator thought it looked cool, not to advertise a personal information vacuum. There was no better introduction to the public's absolutely awful sense of style. But I went from talking to international friends for $0.50/minute to free, and it was amazing.

Super excited to see this, from out of state. It sounds real. If it gets coverage, it'll be inspirational across the country.

I know there were some walkouts "Free America" yesterday, but here (Atlanta), it was just a handful of schools and some sign-carriers. Not disruptive enough to push the weekend's snow forecast out of the news.

No, that's the way the fediverse is supposed to work. It would be sockpuppeting for both of your accounts, say A@A.social and B@b.social, to have a conversation with each other on a third instance, say !politics@c.social, with which both a & b are federated.

crypto - as in cryptography, not cryptocurrency - is just the library he's using to generate the 128-bit random UUID. The snippet is interesting because he matched the original UUID in just over 5 hours. You'd expect to need more than 10^38 guesses to pick the same number again, which, even at 1 guess every microsecond, means something like 10^22 years.

For me, the effort of going somewhere to exercise is a big impediment, and I'm self-conscious exercising in front of people. The low barrier to start a daily workout wins, hands down.

Others find camaraderie just having other people involved in the same process, or really enjoy the variety of machines and options of a well-equipped facility.

You have to figure out which type of person you are. The most important thing is just to do something. (Unless you have specific, Jason Momoa-type goals in mind)

Who needs soft power when you can just kidnap world leaders and declare yourself the caretaker regime?

If he knew what he was doing, would he need to be vibe coding? The target audience are exactly the people most susceptible to collateral damage.
