This is one of the reasons I got residential solar. Financially it ended up working out as a way of "locking in" electricity rates to my loan repayment.
Even if my payback period isn't great (20 years) I benefit by not worrying about the increase in electricity rates.
I've started writing an agentic thing for work and a nice trick I've noticed is that the accessibility representation of the DOM is _way_ better than the "full dom" for LLMs.
There's a positive world where folks make their site accessible to benefit LLMs and side effect it's better for people too
Either China figures out how to commoditize the LLM tech space in which case sovereign AI doesn't matter, or leading labs will always have the edge and Canada won't be able to compete if they don't partner with the big players.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrowโs budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me ๐Weโre just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. Itโs been a roaring success. For every โฌ1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got โฌ1.46 back. Canโt argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
Damn. This is amazing. ยฃ325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Have you used Sora 2 app yet? I got access last night.
Not a flex or anything, but using the actual app feels qualitatively different and better than competition.
Dedicated app + focus on friends + cameo feature together combine to something quite cool.
Being free at this quality means they donโt have real competition?

And the employee is trapped in US for the foreseeable future.
If a parent or sibling or something in their home country gets sick or is going to die then employee needs to choose between saying goodbye in person, or losing their job.
I'm at 95% of my code, closing in on 99% written by AI.
The last 1-5% are things I know are one line-ish changes that would take more time to write a prompt than just make the change myself.

Lower speed limits are not โarbitraryโ.
They are safer speed limits. They are the difference between life and death.
I'm proud that I'm not really struggling with Silksong. I mean there are some tough bosses that have taken 10+ tries, but I've never felt the game was unfair. I've always felt like I've had a chance and I usually just need to be either more patient or a bit more aggressive.

One thing I think we both understand but is widely under appreciated in the industry is the large amount of essential/inherent complexity in state systems. Itโs where 99% of bugs exist.
Thereโs not even a name for this kind of work. I call it โproduct architectureโ.
