I really just want politicians that aren’t characters from Veep. Is that so much to ask for?

The democrats shouldn’t engage in gamesmanship if they take the majority, instead they should follow established precedent such as the McConnell rule.

As a child of the 80s, this is going to be so sick. If you're ever in the DC area, cannot recommend the Udvar-Hazy enough if you want to spend a day looking at incredible airplanes. Air/Space on the mall is cool, but Udvar-Hazy has a much bigger/ interesting collection. www.si.edu/newsdesk/rel...

Look, everyone knows that the way to build durable political power is to be really really mad on the internet.

Working in tech where AI is probably the most useful at getting stuff done rn, this is absolutely the vibe for the past year. I'd add that having been through a few tech hype rodeos before, there's an unspoken "come on, there's a lotta money on the line. we all gotta get in line on this" vibe too.

and when you boot the system, the LLM just gets a huge prompt that tells it what the user wants the system to look like. systemd? that's just a prompt. mounting filesystems and setting ip addresses and stuff? just prompts

like fork() maps to "make a new process that has a copy of my pages and file descriptors. return the pid of the new process to me and the pid zero to the new process" and the LLM just does tool calls for allocating pages and allocating a new pid and stuff

i had this idea for a cursed operating system kernel where the only available syscall is to submit a prompt to an LLM that runs in kernel space and can make tool calls to various ring-0 functions.

Now that I'm going back and re-learning math as an adult, it's so fun and interesting. Math in high school - which is actually when I last had to learn any math - what a brutal depressing slog.

Got a gift link to a @washingtonpost.com article from a family member. You can't read gift articles without signing up for the @washingtonpost.com. No ads were displayed so there was no revenue. Everyone is disappointed - the gift link was just a waste of everyone's time.

Say what you will about Buy*N*Large Super Store causing the destruction of the earth through consumerism in Wall-E, but they make robots and vehicles that last for 700+ years and are modular and infinitely repairable with simple widely available tools/components. That's absolutely incredible value.
