Why do they keep repeatedly jumping in water with jeans on?

Home | Puresteel Drip-style coffee maker designed for wellness and longevity. Everything is stainless steel including the tank, valves, showerhead, pipe, and body.

It’s shockingly difficult to find a coffee maker that doesn’t have plastic. Except this one!

Put another way, we could get rid of corn ethanol, switch 30% of the freed-up farmland to solar to generate 100% of US electricity, and use the other 70% of the freed-up land for whatever we want.

Minneapolis Is a Second Amendment Wake-Up Call The federal killing of a Minnesota ICU nurse should worry every American.

I wish the Left had more aptitude in arguing in these terms: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

The series is so good!

The real reason America is losing the race for global dominance

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

YES!

There’s very little I agree with Mamdani on, but this is so right. If there’s a better sign that the establishment needs to get tf out of the way and let the next generation lead, I don’t know what it would be. Down with the gerontocracy

How do you know you’re a Cold War baby? You’re watching the trailer for Netflix’s _House of Dynamite_ and next thing you know you’re ugly crying at your desk like a baby in some kind to total surprise PTSD flashback trigger thing. Good lord that’s going to be a powerful movie.

Love those things. Brilliant idea

The “send me” patch is the most concerning thing in that picture. And that’s saying a lot

I wish Newsom would focus on fixing this stuff, to make CA a demonstrably better place than red states so our case speaks for itself, as opposed to flying across the country for photo ops to pick fights with Trump

I watched a very dedicated parent at my kids Berkeley school try to green a playground for years. Many community meetings, so much red tape, even got some asphalt torn up and replaced with trees and…over a summer, without notice, the facilities dept tore it out and replaced with asphalt again

Yes this is about SCOTUS

One thing that’s always struck me from reading history: many horrible dictatorships were created in broad daylight as their elected officials handed over their own power, willingly. Rome to its emperors, Germany to Hitler, so many weak/self serving officials abdicating power. Stunning to live in now

If you are a startup intending to sell software to enterprises you should allocate at least $150k/yr in hard costs and about 1 developer-quarter of FTE yearly for security related software, lawyers and auditors you otherwise would not have a need for. Minimum. Just swallow it and get it over with.

Version 3, with built in inverter

Everyone saying they’re going to self-host infrastructure after the Cloudflare/GCP outage today clearly have never hosted infrastructure before (nor passed a SOC2 audit before) and have no idea the odds of doing it better themselves are vanishingly small.

I see what you did there

yes, this is a thread about AI writing code

I will grant that it was at its most insufferable peak about 5 years ago, though, and that I run in pretty progressive circles.

A. So much A.

Sorry, I know that’s not what you wanted to hear. But it’s my true lived experience

Version 2 is way better looking

If you believe big parts of your job will be automated in the future, the response should not be fighting automation. It should either be learning to drive automation or it should be finding a different industry.

3 of 3…

Second corollary:

If you dream of automating the worst parts of your job, you’re either dreaming of something impossible or you’re dreaming of making yourself unemployed. There is no version of reality where those things are automated and you still have a job

First corollary:

If it’s possible to automate delivery of that thing for above the floor quality, eventually no humans will be involved in its delivery

Laws of capitalist labor:

1) the worst version of a thing a customer will accept for free is the floor on delivery for that thing

2) the cheapest process that can deliver more than epsilon above that floor will eventually be the only way it’s delivered

Unless Trump's destruction of US science is stopped, this period will be remembered as the exact time American science was crippled and the global lead shifted to China, just the way the Nazis crippled German science in the 1930s and America became pre-eminent.

We need radical ideas, executed responsibly. Not milquetoast ideas executed responsibly, nor radical ideas executed irresponsibly. But the balance of the two. Which fits nowhere on our political spectrum. Which is the problem.

I love that they don’t even have IT staff competent enough to change the default Joomla page metadata entries.
