When I think of the people who insisted there was no way he could know better...
It's 2026, and America has fallen into dystopia. The AI-God Cult is confused as to why there is backlash against their Brain-Eating-Plagiarism-Machine God, the Evangelical-God Cult is confused as to why THEIR sons are being sent on a holy war in the Middle East by the MAGA-God Cult's Melting King.
Even if it takes years, we have to bring EVERYONE who made this happen to justice. No moving on, no letting this go.
Revenge is good enough motivation for me personally, but the nobler and important reason is to ensure that anyone who thinks of doing this again knows they’ll rot in prison for it.
this is a great question and one i encourage our students to ask BEFORE they start building
bc it's fun to fantasize about the thing you wanna build, it's not fun* to imagine the entire system of a business in reality
*i think it's actually immense fun, but it's a lot less masturbatory
Noting for clarity that a lot of people working in software, including software engineers and designers, have a bad understanding of the software design process.
I’m gonna say something spicy
Graham Platner is less important to me now than Pod Save , Liz Smith, the left et al
Who have continually set up caustic dismissive spaces for “rational” reasoning that always boils down to
“Racism in theory and in action is necessary to win”

In every Republican presidency of my lifetime there's been a recession and a new war in the Middle East.
Imagine this headline but with "Abolitionists" or "Muslims" or "Socialists" or even "Unitarians" instead of "Evangelicals."
Folks bought ALL OF THESE yesterday, but I reprinted them overnight, so if you missed out... your color may be in again??
The problem with Mullin isn't that he doesn't have a Bachelor's Degree. Lots of very smart people don't have Bachelor's Degrees. And I'd even say you can be smart enough to run a government department without one.
The problem with Mullin is that he's an evil fascist.
Threads thread: thriller_instinct 3d Is it okay to bully 40 and 50 year olds who are on social media just for being on it, cuz like why are you here - 254 Q 3.1K G 28 746 corporateash 18h ••• My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted.

“I have usernames older than you.”.
Holy shit
Part of the disconnect is of course that techbros insist that a total revolution in the way that software is made is taking place, but anyone who uses software can observe that software continues to suck more than ever before

On behalf of Brian’s family, we want to express our deepest gratitude for the overwhelming outpouring of support, messages, and contributions over the last 24 hours. At this time, our priority is Brian’s wellbeing. We are taking a necessary step back from the public eye to allow him to focus fully on his recovery in private. While he looks forward to engaging with you all again very soon, his health and his family remain the current priorities. Thank you for your continued patience and for being such an incredible community. Please keep Brian and his family in your prayers. — Team McGinnis
And for the record, I’ve been running long before this, and yes even after breaking my arm standing up for what I believe in. It’s only made me more determined. Anger is real, and so is resolve. Take care.
A message from Brian McGinnis, the firefighter and Marine veteran who was forcibly removed and injured by officers during his anti-war protest at the Capitol
The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.
He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

stores have no idea how much shoplifting takes place, they only know when stock doesn't match records. how much is due to human error, incorrect shipments, breakage, and theft is a guess. literally cannot know if shoplifting is on the rise.
this was a radicalizing discovery for me.
If you can provide $3k checks for the entire middle class of America by taxing 900 people a little more, not only should you do it, but you should take it as a signal that your monetary system is broken
