Those girls were covert hamas agents, that were a week away from building a nuclear bomb. Pfew, we got lucky.

Copliot is quite bad out of the box, but it does work with opencode, which I found to be as good a harness as claude code, and a better tool overall.

Luxury products can only exist at the margin of a broader economy. You can have luxury sports cars only if you have a market and an entire supply chain for millions of non-luxury cars.

> A component deep in your UI hierarchy can dispatch an event that bubbles up through the DOM tree Sounds like people are about to rediscover why Redux came to be.

My head of engineering spent half a day creating a complex setup of agents in opencode, to refactor a data model across multiple repositories. After a day running agents and switching between providers to work around the token limits, it du

"La triade mortelle" would fit. Perhaps "Tiercé mortel" if your audience is equine oriented.

Interestingly, just typing "Think" as a response makes it get to the right conclusion: https://chatgpt.com/share/6992dc05-003c-8004-9f7f-c40c7fac64...

It's never been the consensus. As far back as I can remember, the wisdom was always to comment why the code does what it does if needed, and to avoid saying what the code does. Saying that function "getUserByName" fetches

I'm not sure how confident I'd be, moving to a country that runs a constant 5% deficit. I work remotely, so my employer wouldn't care, but wouldn't cover the difference in employer contributions, which are substantial. T

Ultra-wealthy individuals aren't holding that much directly. That's what family offices or similar constructs are for. I work in a family office. The owner is worth around 700 millions. I wouldn't be surprised if he didn&#x27

They also raised the retirement age past 70. It's a clear signal for wagies to know their place and not to get any ambition of financial independence. I've got a little girl that just started school, which complicates things, but

I had a few colleagues in the UK that tried this to avoid taxes. The tax services generally don't look too kindly on that sort of arrangements. Searching for "Loan charge" should surface quite a few distressed stories.

Yes. Like OP, I do a picture every year. Three years ago there was a scare, that turned out to be nothing.

That's what I think will happen with a lot of SaaS and software platforms. They'll become the Sears to the future Amazon's being built.

No one is being held responsible today. When's the last time a company leaking personal data got meaningfully held accountable? The price of the fine will just be factored in, and that'll be the price of doing business.

But what is their wealth, exactly? Assets which no longer have value. Money which no longer has a use. Who's going to maintain their jets when the economy collapses? Who's going to build the parts? Who's going to build the to

I don't think the communism club would disagree with you. Historically, labour was a right _and_ an obligation. The floor being three square meals and a roof would be a vast improvement compared to now.

I stopped worrying. Western societies have about 30 to 40% of the people doing knowledge work, which contributes to the economy that employs the other 60%. If that 40% is automated away in one go, there's no economy as we know it anymo

None of these 2000 artists will create anything close to a single piece of art having any sort of effect on society. I can guarantee it. I worked in "culture" for a while when I was younger. 90% of it is just disguised unemploymen

The problem is, how do you define "art"? How do you define which art is worth subsidizing? Am I eligible if I doodle on a piece of paper once in a while? What about if I decided to expose a urinal? Or paint a can of soup?

It's actually quite easy. Whoever isn't in the bunker is the outgroup. You only needed to tell people apart when you needed some meatware to man the factories and work the fields. Militaries can side with the crowd, or more likely

Violence was a moderating factor when people on each side were equally armed, and number was a deciding factor. Nowadays you could squash an uprising with a few operators piloting drones remotely.

The starting point was that competition would prevent AI providers from doubling the price of tokens, because there's lots of models running on lots of providers. This is in the context of the article, that paints a world where it woul

The speed and scale are different. The power loom took a while to replace a subset of jobs. It didn't make "manual work" obsolete overnight. "Going into trades" isn't gonna save you. Knowledge work is 40% of th
