I tell my LLM to be a critical peer rather than being so agreeable, and that works for about two messages, but then it’s back to “I have to hand it to you—this is a remarkably robust and production-ready architecture. You didn't just patch the holes; you engineered a self-healing system.”

I guess $3 billion isn't fuck-you money any more.

If you acknowledge that the Trump administration is serious about malicious prosecution then this makes perfect sense to say

I agree with this post in spirit, but onions are a particularly funny example because onions are subject to unique government prohibitions on what you can do with them-futures trading is banned. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onion_F...

Mollie Hemingway thinks she’s getting paid (I’m tagging @lordbusinessman.bsky.social specifically to hear his screams)

Something like

It turns out that this video (which I own on DVD) was redone just this year by Michel Gondry as a Chanel ad with Margot Robbie! 1/2 youtu.be/ohvN6A7Onos?...

This resembles how I eventually became a good Leetcoder. I’d re-solve the same problem. First immediately, then the next day, then at two weeks like a sort of spaced repetition system. Once I knew a few specific problems cold I could solve overlapping problems that I had never seen before 1/2

We need to stop criminalizing literally every alternate transportation modality just because it’s not the dominant one yet

I would like to hear a politician explain by what mechanism they expect to do better investing than a blind trust with professional management would if it isn’t insider training

What if we charged money for water so that it were allocated as a scarce resource to the activities that can best justify its use?

A billion dollar fraud is not a lesser crime than a liquor store robbery with a gun.

Important to note that it's not just that no one has lost their job or been punished. Federal officials repeatedly shot and killed an unarmed civilian who, video shows, had done nothing threatening or illegal - and there has not even been an official *inquiry* into the matter.

Bill Cassidy lost to Woke www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

I really became aware of this person when she was targeting a bunch of harassment at Nikole Hannah Jones and nothing I’ve learned about her since has ever hinted at her beating the allegations.

When there isn't enough housing, it gets rationed, and in a world where lots of people own brownstones, we ration it by price. And thanks to the weight of racism and history, white people are richer on average. This is downstream of inadequate construction throughout NYC and the whole metro area.

I’m 100% in favor of people having fun, but mostly this ends up being good advice. “How is this not satire?” in reference to real Trump posts means there aren’t really good ways to make funny fake posts. Sorry!

Apple and the NBA famously have nothing to do with China www.wsj.com/opinion/free...

Concerning. Looking into it!

This is libel

One thing most Op Ed columnists are really bad at (and I'd be really good at) is shit-stirring. Instead of "Bari Weiss is bad", go with "Bari Weiss is embarrassing David Ellison, she might even be going around town claiming she's unfireable, who can say"

“the the youngest player in NBA Playoff presented by Google history”

Talking with the bots can be wild. It went from accusing me of doctoring a CDC screenshot to saying “I owe you an apology. You are completely right, and I was entirely wrong.”

i think we're doing fertility discourse again, and yeah, if we had a global replacement rate at 40% of the previous generation that would be pretty worrisome to me. fortunately we don't have that, we are still on track for slight global population growth, everybody be normal

It's so depressing that I was able to take 7th grade algebra in an urban public high school in the Midwest as a routine thing, but have to struggle to offer that to my kids as a special exception in the richest place on Earth that is the center of the world's tech industry.

shot: "While Peters has not publicly shown contrition for her crimes, Polis said she did so in her clemency application"

This is a good idea, but to deliver maximum value I need to be able to edit other people’s skeets

I’m not sure if this is real*. This doesn’t look like the tie that Musk was wearing in other photos that day. * it might be “real” in the sense of being a screencap of CCTV? The chyron reads “Trump, Huang Jen-hsun, and Musk Swear Allegiance to the Communist Party of China” 🙄

1/2 There are currently four black Republicans in Congress' all are not running for reelection. Three supposedly quit to win comically un-winnable Senate or governor races they had to have known they could not possible win. The fourth was gerrymandered out of his seat by Republicans.

DOGE was fine with your taxes paying for the US Border Patrol chief to fly to Thailand and Colombia to have sex with prostitutes www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/investi...

11 months after being announced the Trump mobile phone is supposed to start shipping: “The company faced delays after announcing its intention to create the phones in the United States. Now, the website states the phones are ‘designed with American values in mind.’” www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2...

remember: obama was anti-iraq war but he described it as a dumb war. he said he wasn’t against all war. the reason people decided his opposition was proof of wisdom and judgment is because they agreed that a war we were losing must ipso facto have been a dumb idea. not because they were anti war

Wikipedia has already updated the Thucydides Trap article to mention this mentioning of it en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thucydi...

The good taxpayers of New York have given me a pair of Meta glasses because I am low vision disabled, and I seem to have used them more than a lot of people on here, so let me say a little about my experiences:

The Left speaking in obscure academic jargon:

Irony is dead

a synthesis of AI opinions: people who choose whether to use it and choose how to use it like it a lot, and people who are compelled to use it or forced to use it for certain tasks resent the shit out of it

She’s right. He’s been indoctrinated into propagating a car first society smdh

We do not need to deceive to make this administration look bad. Literally just point to what they say and do every day. When we do things like doctor screenshots, it makes it seem like we are on equal footing on creating disinformation when we generally are not

My longstanding position is that we should stop using Dr. as a title for people who practice medicine (who merely work in a skilled trade) and reserve it for those who truly improve social well being, PhD academics. This is also why I don't get invited to parties

Book descriptions of companies crack me up. Is this company doing logistics for the internet? Or is it a logistics company with a website?

AI is pressing forward in new advances in starting projects you never finish.
