Trump is asking the IRS for enough money to give every Jan 6th pardon recipient a million dollars. Just think about it. Everyone should be furious. And then realize they aren’t remotely angry enough.

Happy to work at a company that’s using AI to burn down the backlog and not as an excuse not to hire.

Well at least we know that the Washington Post’s copy machine still works.

This is a great essay on AI and science, I've been writing software professionally for almost 30 years, and AI has freed me from the nitty gritty that I've gotten tired of. But I've got decades of knowing what I want to do and why I want to do it. What the next generation looks like is up in the air

Everyone around me is now yelling about running out of tokens. When did software development turn into being at an arcade with 25 11-year-olds.

That strange sense as a software developer when you just hand a failing chunk of code to an AI and walk away. Is this the moment of my dreams or the moment of my obsolescence?

It’s kind of telling that Linux got AI’s who can write all your code before it got a decent debugger that would let you walk through that code.

Whenever you see a Musk fanboy point out to them that dear Leader doesn’t understand the thermal behavior of a $30 insulated vacuum thermos like a Stanley Cup, and they are going to trust him to send people to another planet.

Reading this story—about how the Pentagon has been given so much extra money it's struggling to spend it all—while thinking about the formerly homeless tenants I've spoken with in recent weeks whose housing vouchers are being discontinued for "lack of funds."

Trump aides struggle with how to spend $500 billion more on military

Some senior officials resisted the decision to approve the major military spending increase, people familiar with the matter say.

Made a suggestion on how to optimize a 3d scene to a jr engineer, came back 30 min later info and informed me that it ran 30x faster and result was 30x smaller, and that he mostly just fed my suggestion to Claude. Guess experience is now just knowing what to feed the AI.

Really $20 for silksong is simultaneously the most entertainment value for your $20, while simultaneously being the most stress, aggravation and agony you could possibly ever get for $20 bucks. Tickets to the traveling concert of their music is 2.5x the price of the game.

When you wonder is this breaking through to the normies, the folks who ignore politics, I think what’s going on in Minneapolis has. Technology Connections, a YouTuber who is mostly known for detailed analysis of 1950’s toasters, talked about solar for 60 minutes and then went nuclear. 1/2

The letter from Bill and Hillary Clinton to James Comer explaining their refusal to testify in his Epstein investigation is really remarkable, not like any letter of this genre I've seen. It's signed by them, not a lawyer, and the arguments are not legal ones. Reprinted from their X account:

I basically have the same number of followers on threads and bluesky, but the threads algorithm showed this to lots more people especially after one of the hosts of the newshour said thank you. Guess it kind of explains why I spend more time there.

This week @pbs @newshour announced that they were ending their weekend broadcast due to federal budget cuts. The same week that CBS evening news lost a million viewers, and as I turned into the 6:30 newscasts that were half commercials and fluff, I was reminded that I don't have to watch them.

When I read “oh! the places you’ll go” I didn’t ever imagine that would include an underground robot boxing match, where a pair of people attempt to play rock em sock em robots with 4 foot tall unitree bipeds. Remember the first rule of robot fight club is that we turn off logging.

One issue with LLM’s is that when working on a complex problem with a complex API (unreal camera streaming in this case) they can lead you down the wrong path, they are so “helpful”, when a google search might have found a real chunk of working sample code 1/2

Every week Jews read a section of the Old Testament, this week was the destruction of Sodom, the religious right focuses on the sexual part of the story, but the city was destroyed for being inhospitable to foreigners. If you’re looking for the real sodomities this week, it’s ICE, Trump and the GOP.
