Good. Now everyone is getting to see what over-investment in complexity nets you. This bad of reliability screams "tangled spaghetti shit show" behind the scenes. It's a shame that this is happening and hopefully Microsoft do

RIP. Great actor. I went from knowing him first in Home Alone 2 as a kid and then later in RHPS (always gave me a chuckle to be like "wait...is that the guy from Home Alone?!").

Then so be it. Hopefully they've considered all of the angles and can defend themselves against people being radicalized to the point of hunting them down. Turns out their obsession with moats was prescient.

Leave Babylon behind and go build local businesses and communities in what they refer to as "flyover country." That's what I'm doing. Easy? Fuck no. But does it take their relevancy away from them? At the scale of everyo

That's not what I said. I didn't say anything about leaving society, I alluded to leaving their society. That's the thing: people keep giving these guys money and attention. If you take that away, they become more than irre

No sarcasm: play a different game. If you play their game, of course you'll suffer. But if you play a game they're repulsed by, you can win a life they'll never have access to: one filled with people who love and respect you

Thank you. They need human contact, not more "sit in a room alone and get stressed as fuck for little ROI" tech bullshit. Unless the kid has a genuine, self-motivated interest in learning these things (a great, positive thing that

The truly "weird"—the kind "futures belong to"—cannot be commodified into yet another off-the-shelf-personality. You either are or you aren't.

This seems to be wrestling with the wrong opponent. > And this is what I think the edtech world keeps getting wrong. The assumption is that if you can deliver the right content, in the right way, at the right time, learning will follow.

Karma backed over their dogma. I switched from Opus 4.7/4.8 to test Kimi K3 a few weeks back and the test hasn't finished; it's my daily driver now. Given their general behavior and preference toward social engineering to s

The degree to which this idea has been overcomplicated is confusing. This could have been solved with some relatively simple patterns wrapped around HTTP and WebSockets (and if absolutely necessary, SSE).

You're not being ignorant; it's a pretty abstract line of reasoning, I'll admit. The logic (again, IMO) is that if large swaths of these governments can be superseded by AI itself—which they're abundantly aware of—then o

Technology is becoming too significant an existential threat to all governments. IMO, this is the "animal lashing out when backed into a corner" stage of their arc. All of the bills are coming due and they're having to answer

Wow. This is rad, well done. I've been trying to find an alt OS for my Clara Colour and this looks great. Being able to author apps means I can finally add a way to review my highlights/quotes and search them with ease. Edit: da

Kind of hope this is a signal the culture is moving towards an analog 2.0 movement (a merging of old school interfaces with modern tech components thoughtfully incorporated).
