"So what does VA need for a recall election?," he asks only half-jokingly.

Nice evening ride in North Garden/Batesville region. Sure is some nice looking country around here.

Also, just asking...what if VA just decided to ignore the court and redistrict anyway? Because... that's kinda what the administration does.

Last year I was excited to leave a one-party state (TN) and move to VA, where my vote could actually count. But if our governor is anti-labor and the courts don't give a fuck anyway, I guess "having my vote count" is just a little too unrealistic in this country?

Fucking hell. "Spanberger said she supported collective bargaining, but not the way it would be implemented in the legislation before her." "I support [insert progressive issue here] abstractly but not in a concrete way I can do something about right now" is why progressives hate the Dem party.

@chancebonar.bsky.social has anyone coined the phrase "secondhand slop"? Because if not, it's yours.

That worm in his brain needs to finish the job.

They want to restore us to how things were at the time of the country's foundation. Well, except for all the places that they openly fly in the face of every non-white supremacist ideal the founders stood for.

Sideloading shouldn't require a 24-hour waiting period and a 9-step gauntlet. Google's 'advanced flow' is designed to fail. Keep Android Open! @keepandroidopen.bsky.social keepandroidopen.org

So who should @avalanche.bsky.social fans want for the second round: the franchise that broke our hearts in 2003 and 2014 or the one that broke our hearts in 1999, 2000, 2020, 2024, and 2025?

It's inevitable that AI will make CEO's obsolete. Sounds ridiculous, right? That's how the AI push is working. Just keep telling people it's inevitable (which it's not) and people will start to believe it. So, let's make CEO's obsolete! It's inevitable!

It's a pretty damn nice time to be on gravel in Virginia right now.

Haven't been very active recently, a lot has been going on. Here's a new post, discussing my recent time in between jobs. www.stefanhodgeskluck.com/blogs/what-i...

As a co-op member, I'm very disappointed in REI right now. On 3/25 I'm going to vote to boycott, and I suggest you do as well. www.ourrei.com/boycott

Man, I bet Roberts is pissed at the guy who ruled that Trump has presidential immunity.

Adding extra work on package maintainers' plates doesn't seem like a good way to encourage OSS devs to produce & maintain the great parts of the Flutter ecosystem.

Lifelong NHL fan here, getting more into the watching @thepwhl.com because 1. Several live games are watchable on YouTube 2. I get to see badass American athletes who totally owned the Olympics AND are not Trump bros

I love how at the Olympics we can enjoy seeing American athletes win without thinking about the absolute fuckwits who have taken control of the countr--ah, nuts.

What it's like to work with AI: a 🧵

It's going to be below my normal threshold, and possibly snowing (but hopefully not...we don't need more snow). But I'm planning on bundling up and getting out for this.

So I didn't need another reason to hate Sam Altman, but here's one all the same.

@thisweekinrust.bsky.social , I just wrote a blog post detailing my impressions after working through Luca Palmieri's Zero to Production in Rust. www.stefanhodgeskluck.com/blogs/lesson...

This kid is just about Ian's age. I don't have the words to say how vile these monsters are.

Well, normally when you win the turnover margin by +4 the game isn't that close, but...at least the @denver-broncos.bsky.social wonN

200 ICE agents arrived in Richmond to celebrate our Democrat Gov's inauguration. They were going door to door in Church Hill yesterday. Familiarize yourself now with the DOs and DONTs immigrantjustice.org/for-immigran...

I still can't believe Sarah is gone. She was such an amazing professor, organizer, mother, and friend. This is a great cause if you have a little bit to give in her honor.

Not sure I've ever experienced anything less in all the calls this past year. Glad there's a Dem running against him this fall.

New year, new post! Nerding out on #tolkien while discussing #genAI here. 🤓 www.stefanhodgeskluck.com/blogs/is-gen...

Newest post. I wish the subject matter was better, but happy to be writing again. www.stefanhodgeskluck.com/blogs/is-thi...

How many of these squares can you fill at your workplace? www.workersdecide.tech/resources/20...

@klhkhistorian.bsky.social and I are watching the Sean Bean Robin Hood. It's 2025 and there is still not a single decent Robin Hood adaptation that doesn't have either talking foxes or Mel Brooks.

Very disappointed in UVA today.

Wow, did not expect that comeback from @denver-broncos.bsky.social!

Out sick today for @indivisiblecville.bsky.social No Kings 😥. Solidarity to all showing up ✊

"History is different from commemoration. History is about what happened in the past, while commemoration is about the present. We put up statues and celebrate holidays to honor figures from the past who embody some quality we admire." open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Definitely not the exact same attachment to artistic creativity in what I do, but I think a lot of what @theoatmeal.bsky.social says here about how AI makes fields worse by eroding practice and process really does apply to software. theoatmeal.com/comics/ai_art

"When you see everything as an outcome — an outcome you may or may not understand, and definitely don’t understand the process behind, let alone care about — you kind of already see your workers as LLMs." www.wheresyoured.at/the-case-aga...

Give a man a fish, he'll have food for a day. Give a man an LLM, he'll brag about his fishing skills and claim that fishing as we know it is obsolete. Meanwhile, he won't know what to do when his fishing pole pulls up a piece of garbage.

Not a big CFB fan, and haven't really adopted any #UVA fandom since moving here, but when I don't have a horse in the race, I do always love me a good upset. Nicely done knocking off the #8 team in the country. #GoHoos

This would be amazing to do, if it weren't virtually unviable for those of us who live in Southwood and have to drop their kids at schools off Avon. Take my kid in my bike through the 5th Street Station shit show at rush hour? Yeah, no thanks. Let's get that bridge to Biscuit Run!!

This is a bit sad but really good to have out there: LLMs remain a viable tech for SOME use-cases, but trying to slap it on top of everything (we already knew, but it is now proved) is completely irresponsible Tech optimists: carry on, a better solution will show up one day, but this ain’t it chief

Again, someone please tell me when anti-vax went from "I don't want my kid to get vaccinated" to "I don't want anyone's kid to get vaccinated." The former view, while problematic given how contagion works, at least had some semblance of grounds in an individual freedom argument.

"With AI learning {subject} is going to become less necessary" is a really great example of what I hate most about all this hype.

"Robinson appears to have admired the “Groypers,” led by Nick Fuentes, who complain that more mainstream organizations like Kirk’s Turning Point USA are not “pro-white” enough and have publicly harassed Kirk in the past." open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

🤮

Today in "Well, Duh."

If you tell me I can watch my kid during the day because I work remote, I'm going to come to your office and spend all day asking you to play with me, then scream and break stuff when you tell me you need to focus for five minutes.
