Trump To Americans: ‘You Won’t Have To Pay Your Son’s Cell Phone Bill When He Dies At War’ WASHINGTON—Striking a note of optimism as the prospects for a protracted conflict with Iran grew likelier, President Trump on Friday urged Americans to bear in mind that they’ll no longer have to pay ...

“You may be grieving at first, but, believe me, you’ll be smiling when you see how much less you’re shelling out every month,” said President Donald Trump

Every lengthy write-up on "lessons learned" after someone lets an AI process delete their database or all their emails reads like this to me

He reorganized the entire company around the block chain but yes, it's the AI causing the layoffs

I'm a software engineer and typing syntax just isn't a big time sink for me.

I spend way more time thinking about how I want to structure all of the components and whether it will be maintainable and meetings.

He's putting up record job losses, driving the country into a war he can't even explain, and was credibly accused of raping a teenager in the Epstein files released yesterday - so of course it's time to try and ruin more trans people's lives

Please note that Chrome pushed an update, and

YOUR DEV CONSOLE (history) MAY BE READ BY HUMAN REVIEWERS.

Sure, console should never be treated as a secure env, but I still fucking hate this.

I will always find it amusing how so many MAGA's are miserable as a direct result of Trump but they'll always be too proud to admit it.

Dude, he's had decades to figure out what this was and get it fixed. It's just not plausible to claim he didn't realize what it was at some point.

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

the wife has now informed me that since she has a job that requires her to be at work when her boss wants we will absolutely be changing the clocks and my new project is to find a real problem

if you were to write a prophecy of the future back in 2000 that "in 2026, President Donald John Trump has launched a war on Iran with Israel after previously attempting a coup to stay in power in 2020", people would think you've gone insane

The difference between my hatred for Democrats and Republicans is that I’m legally allowed to say what I want to happen to the Dems.

I am directing my anger at Trump, but for some reason the entire Democratic Party is positioned in between me and him

Society has really progressed: there weren't any women leading Radio Rwanda.

The New York Times is pure, unadulterated evil. It needs to be removed from society entirely.

The KIDS Act (mass censorship and surveillance law that would eliminate anonymous internet use) is moving forward in the House, and the only opposition is from Democrats who claim it doesn't censor and surveil ENOUGH. When is the left going to wake tf up???

The thing about me being a GenAI skeptic is that I am a third gen early adopter. My machine worker grandpa thought computers were the future and had an Apple IIE. I had two Geocities sites. Was on Facebook when it was still Harvard only. You know how hard you have to try to make me hate new tech???

"We're fighting to win the war"

We are a week in and absolutely nobody has any idea what the political aim we're attempting to achieve is. Win what? Literally what are we fighting to achieve at the moment.

I have absolutely no idea atm if we are close to winning because I have no idea what we want

This is the kind of “leader” that historically views “glory and honor” as the amount of casualties racked up.

Absolutely unfit to lead a drunken conga line, let alone this nation.

Assuming that we’re not DELIBERATELY bombing girls’ schools, has anyone articulated about how being not-PC has actually served us strategically or tactically? Like anything articulable or measurable? Or is it just “blow shit up, but with a douchey expression”?

And GitHub actions have stopped working again.

I'm beginning to think that using a CEO-less, abandoned code forge that wants to be an AI company is a bad idea.

Vance deciding to pick a fight with the guy most likely to become the "American AntiPope" in the event of a schism is hilarious.

Ok, but why is Graham Platner actually a thing? Wtf is wrong with yall?

I can't speak to everyone but in my experience, the assertion is plausible. I've seen good engineers slowly start submitting piles of unmaintainable code. The lack of abstraction is just an absolute killer.

The less people use an LLM, the better the quality.

Not to be THAT feminist, but I knew this was the case before opening the article. Men see fatherhood as an abstract milestone that's a proof of their virility, women see the associated costs.

Not to mention that women not being locked into domesticity is the core of the antifeminist backlash today.

I think not treating the Gamergate crimes as crimes was, historically, one of the Obama administration's biggest failings.
