It is, but the more people read it the bigger hope we have that it won’t happen.

So do I. Also the only time I had an outage in 25 years was due to equipment failure and, there also was a planned maintenance. It never took longer than a couple hours.

Grocery bags cost like what? 50 cents? It encourages having reusable bags which are more practical anyway and don’t break as often.

As for gas, this is a problem with location. On one side we have ocean on the other we have mountains. This causes pollution to be trapped.

This is why Los Angeles was infamous for its smog in 70s and 80s. Catalysts and specifically refined oil helped being it back to healthy levels.

Also I don’t get the obsession with the gas. If you look at prices the gas prices were static for nearly 15 years. It is ridiculous that this is still an argument to anything.

Constitutional amendment(s) could fix things, but there needs to be enough people in Congress willing to pass it.

I highly recommend the following book: “On Tyranny: twenty lessons from the Twenty Century”

There’s also reading of it by the author on YouTube.

It has an interesting approach in terms of organizing disk layout. That solves a lot of problems (dependency hell, immutability, reproducibility, automatic changes etc) and seems to be overall better, but it’s a huge paradigm shift and step learning curve so many people get discouraged.

You vote for the person who selects the people for SCOTUS. There are two very old members (Thomas and Alito) that will likely be replaced in the next 4 years. Are you willing to let trump replace them with 40 year olds and fuck us for decades to come?

I love “California disaster” arguments. I have some MAGA relatives that currently live in California, they decided to move and in 2022 in summer visited non-“marxist” states. And you know what? They ended up staying.

I live in California for 25 years now and I love my state. The most opinionated about how shitty California is are people who never been here.

He didn’t hold both chambers. The two “democrats” who supposedly won in Senate even changed their party affiliation after winning.

1st. He didn’t win by 5 million, he won by 7 million. 2nd what you’re talking about wasn’t result of popularity, but how our election system is messed up, where some votes matter more than others. trump not even once won a popular vote. Even against Hilary he lost by nearly 3 million.

Be Best

Constitution only matters if it is being enforced. And 2017-2020 showed us that very few Republicans were willing to do that.

Currently SCOTUS is debating whether president has absolute immunity (in other words, if he can commit any crime, including murdering his political opponents) something that is absolutely against our constitution, yet they have to debate it.

Yeah, sure. And what prompted trump to show up in DC in January 6th, which before 2021 was day that didn’t have any special meaning in US history?

I highly recommend “On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century” by historian Timothy Snyder If you can’t get a book or audio book the author also reads it on YouTube.

Yet that’s usually enough when taking to another developer.

The problem is that we have this unambiguous language that is understood by human and a computer to tell computer exactly what we want to do.

With LLM we instead opt to use a natural language that is imprecise and full of ambiguity to do the same.

From my experience all the time (probably even more) it saves me is wasted on spotting bugs and the bugs are in very subtle places.

This is what it is called a programming language, it only exists to be able to tell the machine what to do in an unambiguous (in contrast to natural language) way.

Thanks, the article was accessible for me so I thought it would be also for others.

Very creative how Kaspersky used SEO to hide this story. When searching you have to exclude all of their sites to find it.

To be fair, he provided instructions.

We should never have allowed a pardon before a conviction. What Ford did for Nixon created all kinds of paradoxes.
