I and another registered democrat neighbor had this exact discussion and conclusion outside of the voting center we live next to on election day. Assuming we're not the only ones.

Suggesting tariffs was his way of saying "stuffs so messed up I will make radical change" to the angry working class. It also harks back to the early 20th century which he loves. The Dems didn't really have an inroad to that

it does seem like a purely escalatory move. wounding but not killing 1000+ of your deepest adversaries, slow clap... I'm sure Hezbollah will give up now that their pagers are destroyed.

From a security standpoint it's no different than a password form except you're sharing one company credential with another. The issue is not html forms though, it's that you might trust Anthropic more than you do the hot ne

This hit me 2 days ago as I was shuffling dual boot systems around trying to recover some old data for a client. Kind of hilarious timing tbh, right after I was done laughing arrogantly about CrowdStrike

yes I was not expecting to read the whole thing. But it was so pleasant. He uses paragraphs as the Spirit in the Sky intended: each one opens an idea and then closes it. Compare his opening sentences to his closing sentences; they almost

if interested, I have a twist on this going where you can make many different custom prompts and save them as 'bots', which remember your chats with them, and are also available for other people to then chat with. https:/&#x

there is an unfortunate reality that in neighborhoods like mine, there is a culture of imitating gun shots. It's tangential to this tragic incident, but it's also an issue that I assume will only explode as it becomes "cool&

can attest; I bounced off Xcode several times when trying to bootstrap my way into a dev career in 2010 or so, despite being a lifelong Mac user.

this is you though, as opposed to the new paradigm of coding that is threatening to be ushered in. "Generate code, test, fail, regenerate, test...". Without ever breaking down constituent parts. I already worked with a team of 2

I think one level of abstraction up, this is about whether to use externally meaningful (emails, etc) or internally meaningful ones (INT id's, etc). The specter of having a "permanent ID" (contextless), is something which has

yes art critiques, specifically giving them, was probably the most formative part of my school days. I arrived at the same formula - you need to 'steelman' the artists intentions first - then your critique becomes directed at the

Watch your doses ! I thought I loved seaweed, then one day ate a large amount on an empty stomach, and it was some of the worst nausea of my life.

Maybe I'm being selfish, but I'd love an ELI5 section. I've actually installed my own web apps as PWA's, as well as reddit and others, but I still have a shaky understanding of the best way to do it. Would be nice if t

sometimes I wonder if the edges of articulated desire may always be essentially binary / quantitative, meaning that slow yes / nos are in fact the best way for us to grapple with them, and systems that allow us a set of these yes

all depends on the alarm. I took the time to find a gentle one and it's probably why I nap a lot more often now. There's still the danger of it putting my day to a dead stop but quite often it feels like a net good. Also sleep

this might be a way to improve the default nix toolset in a way worth globalizing, it seems like it has the same philosophy. Discovering missing tools... it's like discovering new primes :)

very little attempt to steel man actual concerns, centered around one untenable solution to a smaller problem (data dignity). But, I did enjoy it. I think this is actually a valid time to sit around brainstorming disaster scenarios because

I think that people mistake building/ bundling js with compiling js. even when you use bundlers, the code still needs to be compiled by the JIT. so bundling is really kind of a weird step that makes web dev different afaik. they&#x
