I'm as big of a skeptic on these AI companies and question deeply the long term value of data center buildout as a land use policy in the communities where they're being built. But: > So let me ask the question directly: if AI

Bills are not hard to read. Especially the closer to local government you get. The problem is that bills are worth the paper they're written on until courts affirm what the language means in the context of the legal system.

I don't deny their efficacy, I'm saying that there's a massive crop of grifters and liars building them and using them.

Pullman, IL was the model of a company town and started off as a reasonable (if paternalistic) approach to providing good housing and services to your employees. Unsurprisingly, it did not last.

podman seems to handle rootless namespaces just fine, minor caveat for some perf overhead but it's not the end of the world.

In my opinion Hendrix is to electric guitar what Beethoven was to (Western) harmony. All contemporary lines go through him. One thing to note though is that Hendrix had a very short career in which he lived/performed in Nashville, the

A manual is not a tutorial, and having AI anywhere near this task is actively harmful. Please do not build this.

The fundamental problem is that on Github Actions it's possible to give read-only permissions to pipelines that are then violated because runners can be granted read+write permissions to the cache. And they don't consider this a P

Rust's compilation unit is a crate. Counting crates is like counting source files in C++. > Are benefits in binary size really worth that complexity? What complexity?
