If these frat boys were holding up "Stop The Genocide" signs on campus instead of raping women, universities would have expelled them and banned the frats already

There's a form of grief about the state of the climate, the species we killed with out actions, the damage we've done to the ecosystem. Grief about not what we "lost" but what we destroyed (often through negligence). I do feel a very similar kind of grief when I think about "AI" and what its […]

my favorite Python 3.15 feature is flattening using `[*ls for ls in [[1], [2]]]` because the old syntax is impossible to remember and no amount of reply-guying “you just have to imagine two for loops bro" has ever changed anything about it: I always added a `flatten()` helper. I can remember the […]

If "AI" were a mere tool and not a political narrative you wouldn't need to headline "X used AI to do Y" all the time. Anything anyone does while "AI" is involved must reify "AI"'s power and relevance. Because it's not "just a tool", it's a bigger project of disenfranchisement some willingly […]

Anthropic is bragging about rolling their own from-scratch in-house version control system because git couldn't keep up with their 30,000 commits per day, and it doesn't seem to occur to them for a nanosecond that they are not fixing the actual problem in their engineering practices but making […]
