There's no mechanism that could possibly cancel the mid-terms. What we should worry about is the election being interfered with, and swayed by intimidation and disinformation, NOT being cancelled.

It's no longer safe to even use a period tracking app in many US states now. The women I know are all cautioning each other to go back to pen and paper, and ditch anything app based.

Switched to Codex last week, and I'm already MUCH happier than I have been with Claude Code. Which surprised me.

The first reply clearly being a copy and paste from Claude made me want to vomit If people absolutely need to use AI to write replies, they NEED to start including a "everything after this was generated by AI" disclaimer

All those billions spent on tokens by Meta, and not a single iota of value generated by any of it

Protip: in the olden days we used to be able to read and write code ourselves. Worth trying while Claude is down! You might have fun and learn something!

It really is awful right now. I'm lucky enough to still have a job, but floated my resume around earlier this year. I have a pretty good resume and and 15 YOE, and got turned down EVERYWHERE. I used to at least get interviews at like 5

I knew this was going to be the end result after seeing so many companies reward employees based on how many tokens they were using. My company even pulled stats and gave physical awards out at an in person retreat. Ridiculous, and it was n

Yeah, it's wild to be writing a post like this in June 2026. Even if he thought Google was somehow still salvageable, how did he justify staying there after Google immediately bent the knee to Trump with the $1 million bribe a year and

Sounds like it's working for you, but none of that explains to me why every engineer should be doing that, and every day

And also delivering things nobody wants or will use, just because they can.

It seems to be based on some idea that there's no way you can be productive enough without AI. But I've yet to see any companies really shipping meaningful software at some unprecedented speed that was not possible pre-AI. Instead

I read the entire paragraph, and the entire article. Nothing in there explained to me why every engineer should be using AI every day.

Liminialism is way way more popular these days than cyberpunk or anything like that. Please go talk to a group of teenagers if you don't believe me.

It's not actually that hard, most companies are morally superior to Meta. Even the other evil ones.

There are no other companies that would pay your friend?

Also on the Omnipod, and I also always travel with both extra pods AND extra insulin pens (basal and bolus insulin). That way I can switch back to MDI if for whatever reason my pods fail or I can't use them.

by Trasmatta 4mo ago
I'm on a pump but always take backup insulin pens and needles when I travel, so that I can switch to MDI if needed. My QOL with a pump is so much better than it was with a decade+ of MDI.

AI makes code maintenance harder

Businesses are going to regret going all in on AI. It'll take a couple more years before the cracks start to show.

Another option is just not using an LLM at all.

Thank you, I was confused reading the comment above, because the article pretty clearly laid out the benefits and drawbacks of the system. I didn't see any idealizing.

This isn't true at all

This is incorrect. DXM is the active ingredient in Auvelity. Bupropion is included because it inhibits the enzyme that breaks down DXM quickly. The bupropion boosts the effectiveness of DXM as the primary antidepressant, NOT the other way a

DXM is also the active ingredient in the antidepressant Auvelity (combined with bupropion) Lot of interesting studies and anecdotes on its efficacy as an antidepressant

> Hasn't the economics of maintenance and change shifted so much that accidental complexity isn't actually all that expensive/painful? I sincerely believe that extensive accidental complexity will ALSO be bad for AI agents
