The core problem is that literally 50% of the water is diverted to make comically tiny profits of, like, a few hundred million dollars, so trillions of actual economic activity gets held hostage by some clown who bought land in 1872. Put a market price on water and the problem is instantly fixed.
the moralizing over AI agents for personal dev projects is like lycra-clad dweebs losing their shit at e-bike users, never even considering that someone might be using a bicycle for transportation
The tool itself is not ai, it was built using it
On August 29, 2016, The Guardian published a letter by Henry Stewart that became a viral sensation. Written during the "burkini ban" controversy in France, Stewart’s satirical piece argued that while religious dress had never harmed him, "men in suits" were responsible for his unfair dismissal, pension scandals, illegal wars, the global financial crash, and the misery of austerity. He concluded that if society is to dictate attire based on perceived harm, it should "ban suits." About the Author Henry Stewart is not just a disgruntled reader but a prominent British business thinker and entrepreneur. He is the founder and "Chief Happiness Officer" of Happy Ltd, a consultancy known for a management style built on trust rather than top-down control. Key Professional Highlights: The Happy Manifesto: His acclaimed book argues that employee autonomy and happiness drive productivity. Workplace Reform: He is a recognized influencer on the Thinkers50 "Guru Radar" for his work in transforming corporate culture. Personal Stakes: The letter’s mention of being "sacked without explanation" refers to a real event in 1987 when he was fired after just 12 days at a pension firm. This experience inspired him to build a company rooted in transparency and respect. Core Philosophy Stewart’s work and public commentary advocate for coaching over commanding and strengths-based working. He frequently connects management ethics to broader social justice, viewing traditional "command and control" structures—represented by the metaphorical "men in suits"—as a primary source of systemic failure and inequality.
Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now
And my PhD is actually in the agricultural sciences btw lol
Genuinely doubt anyone who talks like this has ever actually worked in large scale ag. It is nothing like this. This is cosplay
This is a Steely Dan song
Ah I'm regretting getting the Lite quarterly sub instead of the pro before they jacked up prices now.
What provider do you use for GLM5?
Even this is an understatement - they are all but slaves in many cases.
As in i don't necessarily think his career is over right now but the injury is definitely pretty bad and I think they don't want people googling "patellar tendon rupture return to play likelihood" and seeing it's below 50%
I think he may have the kind of knee injury that, more often than not, means his career is over, and they're trying to avoid admitting it.
Surprised they even bothered. At this point they just print money sitting on their hands because of vendor lock-in
I kinda wish there was a middle like $40/mo tier because $100 for Max is a bit much for me but I'd gladly pay to double my usage.
Living in a dual EV household rn
At long last, we have created the multi-millennial Interstellar Tyranny from classic sci-fi novel etc. etc.
Generationally bad take by him holy
"omg did you see Rotta the Hutt? He's Jabba's son and he is going to fight the Mandalorian and Gr-"
You bolt awake in the hills of Burbank. It is 1976 AD. You are Marcia Lucas, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Star Wars must match George's original vision
Definitely gonna try this later. Can it be hooked up to OpenRouter?
The FIRST recommended Google search auto complete about Markwayne Mullin is how short he is lmao
I love when the balls are tighter
It's microsoft so it's bundled in with stuff, now you're vendor-locked so your dev team can't try out actual tools that work, nothing gets done, things get worse, and you can't switch because Corporate bought a 10 year license or whatever. Horrible horrible company

Appreciate the clarity
screenshot of a wikipedia page showing a picture of a woman with arms akimbo and the etymological description noted in the text of the post
stolen from x, but i always assumed "akimbo" was borrowed from Japanese or something, but it's a contraction of the middle english "in kene bowe" meaning "in a sharp bend." (and bow in this sense of a bend also gives us the bow of a ship, an archer's bow, a knot tied in a bow, a rainbow, etc — fun!)
Oh your LLM code isn't easy to maintain? Have you tried being so bad at coding and documenting that no matter what the LLM stuff is an improvement?
Every single person itt is describing a Service, not Software (which LLMs are, you can literally download them)
Any tool that can be customized will be customized to death.
I mean I've worked in medical/biotech software for a long time and frankly almost anything is an improvement from the general quality of code shipped from that world lmao
