I don't know if this falls under the category of "with age comes wisdom", but I don't exactly see this change as a bad thing. If I'm remembering correctly (and this was a long time ago), when I was in school, the…
It is slightly dark. I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s a miserable take though. It’s more neutral and pragmatic and to be fair, this isn’t universally true, it’s just true most of the time. I’m glad you’ve had a better…
Lying is in the job description. I'm convinced that to rise (or be groomed and practically anointed through nepotism and corruption) to that level in business, you have to trade a part of your humanity. There comes a…
I remember when Microsoft really started going downhill almost 4 years ago. I've done well personally, but the way that things have been going in that time I would have been happy to leave. I've always been in the…
I think Corey Doctorow has the best retort to this. They want you to vote with your wallet because they have thicker wallets than you. No. Regulation is the answer. Hopefully everything changes in November. That’s when…
This is why this tech should not be left to the mercy of only a handful of labs. The only reasonable path forward is to leave it to the FOSS community. There will be big players of course, but the idea of locking this…
The only people who seem to think that a world where only Anthropic and OpenAI can act as anointed gatekeepers to the most powerful models as the only rational path forward happen to work for these companies. The entire…
Computers are not human. Computers do not have sentient thoughts. Computers should not misrepresent themselves as sentient creatures. Computers are tools. Seriously, I don’t understand why this is such a controversial…

Because if you break the law while acting as a representative of a company in the United States, the company is subjected to a deferred prosecution agreement, you get off with zero repercussions as the executive…
The mini-14 is probably the best and most useful rifle I’ve ever owned and would 100% recommend to anybody.
I love Cory Doctorow’s work, but man is it hard to get through sometimes. Not because it’s bad, but because it’s depressing.
I’ve been using Opencode, but recently migrated to oh-my-pi and have really enjoyed it. I’ve also had luck with copilot-cli, but find that to be more limiting and it’s only really worth using if you are paying for…
Actually, several airports are. So you have normal WAAS and it has a ground segment. Most (new) IFR certified GPS receivers installed in airplanes today are WAAS capable. To that, you can augment something called GBAS…
