I have been shocked by the monstrous neglect that is heaped on many children. A significant number of parents keep kids like worthless livestock. They do the bare minimum to not lose them to CPS and then kick them out at the first opportuni

After a background check leaked my entire background and fingerprints, I think there is almost nothing left to leak. It's just, all out there now. Freeze your credit folks.

This is kind of a no-brainer. Especially in states like Texas that have huge wind power adoption. When you are burning around ten thousand gallons of gasoline over the lifetime of a car it's a pretty low bar to beat.

In a small town I used to live in, the car dealerships essentially financed the entire town. Their sales taxes paid roughly 80% of the town budget. The dealers could have murdered people in broad daylight and the sheriff would have handcuff

You are entirely correct. The enshittification will continue. All we can do is enjoy these things while they are still usable.

At this rate, Ukraine will be the premier arms manufacturer for Europe. Rheinmetall better be taking notes. Battle tested, sufficiently effective and inexpensive solutions using off the shelf and easily replaceable parts.

The one thing I've found AI is good at is parsing through the hundreds of ad ridden, barely usable websites for answers to my questions. I use the Duck Duck Go AI a lot to answer questions. I trust it about as far as I can throw the da

They are busy-waiting while waiting for a volatile integer to be changed by another thread? Is this normal in embedded? Most of my compilers would scream at me with warnings about this.

Chicago is one of the few exceptions to this rule in the United States. New build suburban housing looks like this: https://www.google.com/maps/@33.4041926,-111.559976,3a,75y,8... https://www.google.com&#x2F

An LLM based therapist should be tested like any other medical device. Your comment contains an underlying assumption that they are beneficial. That assumption has not been proven. It is just as likely that they are hurting the people they

Have you seen how wide residential streets are in America? They are also very straight and cleared of obstructions. In other countries you will see traffic calming measures such as chicanes and road narrowing. In my own neighborhood people

I think the usual plan is to sell it and do like they are saying in this article. Rent a place in a cheap retirement area or live aboard a boat or something. Typical retirement stuff. What happened with my parents was the 2008 crash wiped o

My house represents less than 10% of my portfolio cost basis. It is now 25% of my total portfolio just because it has exploded in value over the past 5 years. Edit: In addition I get to live in it!

Owning a home wouldn't make much sense if we were building tons of affordable housing. However, with the constant artificial shortage created by cities, the rents and prices continue to rise ad infinitum. This means, as a homeowner, I

Sorry I think you mistook my previous comment for a serious attack on the homeless. It was hyperbole to highlight the absurdity of punishing the homeless even more.

You got a lingering permit? The total lack of welcome in public spaces is palpable. The war against homeless people in the USA has spilled over to the war against public existence. You can't hang out in front of a store and cool off be

Just saying, the emperor has no clothes. 405 pedestrian fatalities per year from cars. Maybe 1 per 5 years from scooters?

When a drunk driver on a scooter kills someone it's news on almost every outlet. When a drunk driver in a car kills someone it's a Wednesday.

You must consider bias when pulling from sources. In this case the bias is so extreme that you can patently reject the source. It's like using studies by a vegan advocacy group to determine if milk is healthy.

Well, when you think about the percentage of media on the internet that is pornographic, I could imagine an AI getting pretty odd notions!

I've been noticing that a lot of the AI searches are getting a little pervy. I was looking for Isaiah Shields on Instagram and it looked like a PornHub advertisement.

I can feel this article. It reminds me of a couple times riding my motorcycle in the desert in the summer. The air HURTS. Like sitting in front of a blow dryer or an oven.

I really wish that we could get better laws for registering and licensing on these "Illegal" electric bicycles similar to the moped licenses in most states. Aftermarket plating and laser E-VIMs etc... They are such a great alterna

I think in a sane world we would at least distribute them to hospitals and family planning clinics in the states for low income households.
