I remember this. Fucking awful shit. I’m sorry you had to deal with that then and with reliving the memories now. 💚

Hahahah. I work with British people so the British spelling of things ends up in lots of output. We have an explicit rule to use American spelling. It’s constantly ignoring that rule. Can’t say I’m mad though.

I thought I wasn't patriotic, but my wife swears I'm one of the most patriotic people she knows because I believe in democracy, I believe that this experiment we embarked upon 250 years ago is worthwhile. Just because there's a bunch of fascist assholes in charge right now doesn't mean we give up.

It will probably run the game better, which will help your own performance in raids of course but I think the current market is a bad time for buying unfortunately. I built my current gaming system before trump took office.

So I have little/no exposure/use of GraphQL. But apparently it came out of Facebook? So apparently everyone thought that was a perfect idea.

If you thought adjusting the layout of a web page by modifying and tweaking CSS was hilariously bad before, just wait until you try and get Claude to do it for you.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

the Black Panthers were right
IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK 
JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS.
WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK.
AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE.
SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS.
THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES.
IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

Reminder that AI is marketing. From Claude:
I asked Claude if it can learn, and that the I in AI (intelligence) presumes ability to learn new things. Claude says AI is marketing, it has already been trained on the models, and it's really just a pattern matching engine that can use tools.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

I get it, Kubernetes is dope if you have services you want to run A LOT OF with varying needs for resource constraints, scheduling, etc. It's utter shit if you have a few one off things to run that don't change much, or need to manage state in themselves.

Weird how many racists like to self-identify themselves as racists.
