FWIW, the photographer, Rashid Umar Abbasi, was a freelance photographer.

It is more that knowledge workers are less sophisticated at using AI. It is not that hard to check whether sources are real, using AI or other tools, for example. Something like functional testing will come to non programming tasks.

6th amendment is strictly about criminal prosecutions. The court in question is not a criminal court.

NY Times has done no reporting substantiating the claim the hundreds of thousands have died. They have published an OpEd piece and have reported a memo by a USAID employee how was upset about being fired. It is all models and unsubstantiated claims.

Media had access to the laptop, and we only have second hand claims about the phone.

Do you think commercial real estate are backing maintaining single family zoning in places like Palo Alto, or do you think they'd actually benefit from tossing all the zoning, and being able build, sell, and rent as many office buildings and apartments and condominiumns as possible?

And that's why Alta Vista still reigns supreme in search.

Because it is not a documentary about the history of Theranos or a bio of Holmes, it is about truth, deception, and media.

Models are actually getting better.

The author didn't share what DHH actually said, and distorted a bunch of comments.

You received a highly distorted negative version of what he was saying. Another example is the claim 37 Signals "banned" hand coding. What he said is they went AI first, and that hand writing was exceptional.

We are going, and have gone, pencils down on the idea that we were gonna write code by hand as a normal course of business creating things. Writing code by hand at 37signals is now an exceptional state.

What the article characterizes DHH as saying:

Look how I don’t care anymore, and you should not care either

What DHH actually said:

I have AI delirium. AI euphoria. Because this is simply the most exciting thing we have made computers do in the time I have worked with them, played with them, interacted with them. But I think actually to wrestle with the fact that on the one hand, this is tremendously exciting, it is also a little unnerving.

and

There's only one play here, and it's total Fucking optimism. Lean in to the max possible. Because the utopia is almost here.

"This American Life is an independent program, not produced or distributed by NPR."

TAL is independently produced, but distributed by PRX() for broadcast to NPR, and NPR is partially financing it by paying for the right to air it.

PRX also funded by Corporation for Public Broadcasting; this is all a somewhat incestuous, government financed form of independence.

Do you mean readable, as in it is easier for you to match "." to "," than ( to ), or is it just easier to look at without reading because there is less there.

The first link in his article cites his source:

Fortunately for Los Angeles, unfortunately for San Francisco!

You are misunderstanding time/place/manner restrictions. The rule must apply equally to all speakers regardless of topic, opinion, or political stance. If you banned "the distribution of all writings by authors in another country/region" you aren't applying the restriction equally.

Give them some grace. The author is a Czech developer likely using AI to help write in a second language or translating.

From the preface of first edition The C Programming Language. Just interesting to note the authors never claimed it was low level, just not "very high level."

---

C is a general-purpose programming language with features economy of expression, modern flow control and data structures, and a rich set of operators. C is not a "very high level" language, nor a "big" one, and is not specialized to any particular area of application.

But its absence of restrictions and its generality make it more convenient and effective for many tasks than supposedly more powerful languages.

That data is in the article, "true unemployment" was higher in 1999. The last few years are the best years on the graph.

It depends. Solid particleboard is pretty close, but a many Ikea pieces are hollow, with internal cardboard support. I prefer some of these to particle board because of the lightness. Like the Lack or the Linnmon table tops.

Why not? If the agency is doing a poor job you might be better of defunding it or disbanding, or forcing smarter, cheaper, more efficient testing. If money fixed problems we'd have great schools and great health care.

The big Boar's Head listeria recalls were in Summer 2024, before Trump was elected, before Doge existed...

In defense of Prusa, I’ve had mine for six years and have done basically zero maintenance. I’ve adjusted temps a few times when switching filament brands, and that’s about it.

You are right to say Prusa is more of a hobbyist machine while Bambu is closer to a consumer appliance. But within the hobbyist spectrum Prusa is more on the light hobby side these days. My first printer was a Printrbot where I was hand-entering G-code to move the nozzle around and level the bed. Prusa is a dream compared to that.

I like Prusa as a company (and the guy), and I like the community around it. The machine is simple, keeps working, parts are available, and you can understand and repair it if you need to.

Some context on the US/WTO conflict. It started under Obama, blocking reappointment of two judges. Trump in term 1 went all in, stopping all appointments. When Biden was elected he fully maintained and supported the policy of blocking judges. So it has been more of a bipartisan policy than "Trump gutted".

So no tourist travel for the poor or middle class, just the elite rich? And no tourist income for the poor and middle class? This is a policy only the top .1% will enjoy.

There is slow progress being made on this.

That's near the opposite of what Aristotle intended. He wrote about happiness as virtuous action, living well. He wasn't so internally oriented.
