It's extremely inconvenient that you only get good at something after you've done it for a while. I'd prefer to be good at it from the start.

Tired: Choose your fighter.

Wired: Choose your strongly worded letter writer.

But in all fairness, saying that they can't fight is not accurate. Because they fight really hard, and viciously, when the opponent is AOC, or Mamdani, or Black college students.

Fully agree with Ernie. So many of the problems of the media business (a business I love) are the fault of those businesses themselves. That was true in the newspaper era and it’s true today in digital.

Fair play, but he's going to need a lot more than $500K to make Eric Adams look good.πŸ€·πŸΏβ€β™‚οΈ

One single post from Olayemi Olurin reminding voters of Adams' record will undo whatever fictional narrative $500K buys you.

Spin is expensive. The truth is free.

So I'd start at $20M, and go up from there.

If you haven't given Metro a try yet, you should - it is an excellent piece of software, and the documentation is second to none.

Plus, it's faster than Dagger πŸ‘€

more than laughable, it's grim

what kind of democracy would be saved under a man who explicitly advocates for horse trading away the rights and lives of members of that democracy for short term gain?

what house would be built on that foundation? one we have all watched collapse already.

The Security Eng team at $PriorJob had custom prizes for these sorts of things - custom key caps, mousepads, etc. I know a few people who were specifically motivated because of the swag

Leaked Memo: Anthropic CEO Says the Company Will Pursue Gulf State Investments After All β€œUnfortunately, I think β€˜No bad person should ever benefit from our success’ is a pretty difficult principle to run a business on,” wrote Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei in a note to staff obtained by WIRE...

This is an incredible admission: β€œIt’s perfectly consistent to advocate for a policy of β€˜No one is allowed to do x,’ but then if that policy fails and everyone else does X, to reluctantly do x ourselves.”

And yes, crime went down from 2004 to 2020.

Mass incarceration level is not related to crime rate. Mass incarceration level is related to racism and financial extraction of wealth from poor Black people (AKA more racism).

Vibe coding is just rediscovering one of the fundamental dilemmas of software engineering, which is:

Understanding and/or communicating *what* needs to be done and *how* it needs to be done is work and often harder work than the actual coding

Again, if you did support Trump at the beginning of the year, and don't support him now that tells me 2 things about you:

1) You aren't very smart

2) You don't listen to Black people

The fact that you don't support him now, doesn't convince me that you've gotten any smarter, or started listening.

Few things can make me take you less seriously in 2025 like saying "both sides are equally bad" and I'm someone who thinks the Democratic Party is incredibly incompetent.

Hello from the AWS NYC Summit keynote, where Swami is talking about everything AWS does, so long as you only care about Agentic AI. If you don't, I dunno, take your business to Microsoft or something? That's certainly the implication.

Steroids don't make big dudes angry. They make angry dudes big.

I don't care if you're angry. Keep your hands to yourself. Everyone gets angry. You're not special.

Some 150 lb dude mad that he never made varsity football, and mad that girls know he's creepy, is now 250 lbs and listening to Rogan.

Microsoft president Brad Smith acknowledged that the four rounds of layoffs this year are more about using the money saved to fund AI data centers and GPUs than workers being replaced by AI.

I think this is important for the media to get right versus making it seem like ChatGPT can replace a human.

You can't turn a cis kid trans just by telling them that trans people exist.

But you can drive a trans kid to self-harm by pretending that trans people don't exist, thereby showing them that their own parents reject them.

In most places, it's generally considered bad to hate your own kid to death.
