As a professional software fella I can tell you there are a couple of common truisms: computers were a mistake, it’s a great gig if not for the users, off-by-one errors… Seems as if the “if not for the users” has become toxic and that’s a shame, because it’s a thought-provoking bit.

Once again, as @nberlat.bsky.social has argued, Democrats should impeach. Assuming that Republicans will collectively defend RFK Jr./Hegseth in particular is preemptive surrender, especially if Republicans are truly hammered in the midterms.

No absurdities? I would argue there are always absurdities in the offing and reasonably “good” people simply try to work around/beyond/through as best they can. This is of course the source of much conflict, even war, but mutual bellicosity is not mutually exclusive with both sides being “good”.

Pretty sure it’s gonna be the next “high levels of lead correlates with higher crime and lower achievement” or in other words it makes one stupid over time. There’s just no getting around it: Claude/Copilot and I assume the others will eventually find the seam in your defenses and make you credulous

So embarrassing when people think the point of reading a novel is to know the plot, so a summary is just as good. The plot isn’t important, you rube. You absolute simpleton. The point of reading a novel is to find out what the characters are eating and start thinking about what you want for dinner.
