Boy I hope not being able to score Cooper Pratt from when he was in second with no one out doesn't come back to bite the #Brewers...

"There's an ineffable aspect to my favorite pieces of software where I don't think of it is as feature matrix but rather as an interface made by a human for humans that's a joy to use. And when you build software with AI, it leads to worse software." brettcodes.com/im-done-usin...

I'm done using AI
Why I'm stopping using AI for coding (and anything else) after using it earnestly for a year and coming to understand the harms it causes on personal, societal, and environmental levels.

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races

My son got this magazine today, and it is causing me psychic damage.
A magazine titled "Ultimate Flashback to the 90s: Journey Back in Time to Gaming's Most Exciting Decade!" in the most 90s style imaginable. The upper left corner has a starburs that just says "OLD!" which is rude as hell. Pictures of the N64 and PlayStation consoles are at the top. A side by side of the Sega Genesis and the Super Nintendo is accompanied by the phrase "Exploring the16-bit War." We have pictures of Mario, Lara Croft, Crash Bandicoot, Pikachu, Street Fighter, and Soul Caliber. Just an absolute time capsule.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

From a @daynperry.bsky.social NotGraphs piece from 12 years ago, say "Golly toots that's a long potato" for home runs sometimes, and just "Golly toots" as an unironic exclamation. not.fangraphs.com/some-suggest...

Some suggestions for never-before-used home run calls
If you’re weary of the usual fare when it comes to broadcaster’s home run calls (i.e., “Back, back, back, gone!” or “Golly toots, a long potato!”), then please do consider encouraging your local mic…

This will not work. This will result in slap-dash, unsecured, and broken code for a service which cannot fail. Being unable to access benefits will kill people. When (not if) this happens, and they try to tell you they couldn't have anticipated this, know they absolutely could have.
