People tend to get excited when they can't eat and despite its timidity America is exceptionally well-armed. That sounds cute in a post drone strike world, but if the government attacks its own citizens like that, they'll have a h

It transitions back to a more feudalist state. The series finale to "you will own nothing and be happy." That is, if they're successful .

Semi-related. I think a better solution to this DC problem (and a nice revenue stream for vendors) is to figure out something like this [1][2] at scale. Basically, instead of saying "we're going to subsidize our DC build outs by i

Wrote something like this earlier today [1]. There was something really nice about not thinking too much about the details and letting it be rough. [1] https://graybeard.ing/llms-are-grep-on-steroids/

This isn't stealing in the "good artists copy, great artists steal" sense. This is just straight copying/plagiarism. To "steal" effectively (in the Steve Jobs sense) means to pull details into your own work tha

Only point is to get access to native APIs and a distribution channel. Tauri is far better than Electron if you want to ship a web front-end as either desktop/mobile.

Turns out people hate the thing they're being told is going to steal their life from them (often with a shit eating grin). This is what happens when you run dark strategies. They might work for a little bit in small doses, but eventual

"The economy" is just the word we use for transacting between one another. Whether individuals, or businesses, or a combination. The economy as it exists in popular culture is just a tool to bludgeon people over the head into ac

Mentioned at the end, but Kobo's gel better with the KEPUB format. Calibre has a nice converter for this (I think it may be built-in now or still a plugin), but works great. Got a Kobo Clara Colour about ~2 years ago now and I couldn&#

An opportunistic politician would be wise to draft a bill around surveillance transparency and go to all of the people voting against Section 702 here for support (solid arm twist that backs them into a PR corner).

Based on what I've been seeing/reading online the past ~6 months or so, I think there's a self-fulfilling prophecy going on here. Developers are concerned about jobs going away, but how often are they pushing back in their or
