Finally had to cancel @gamepass.xbox.com. I was still on the console tier from 2 iterations ago so I still got day 1 games. I cancelled because I can't knowingly give money to a service that seems to get worse without paying more. I like Xbox but man, so many greedy decisions over the recent years

A Reddit post from r/ChatGPTCoding subreddit titled as "Best place to hire developers to clean up my AI slop?" The post describes a user's Python + FastAPI project, built entirely with AI, that has 50-60k lines of code. The user is looking to hire a developer to refine the code and asks for website recommendations and expected pay to debut it further.

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it??

Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’™

Canadian games to support during the U.S. trade war Here's a pretty extensive list of Canadian-made (and owned!) games you can buy if you're trying to avoid American goods.

Given the "Buy Canadian" push amid this asinine U.S. trade war, I rounded up a bunch of games that are both made *and* owned by Canadians. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ ๐ŸŽฎ

"I would do the work, if only you would tell me what work to do."

Figuring out what work to do is frankly one of the most important parts of doing the work. If you cannot commit to doing the work without someone to supervise you through it, you're not doing the work, "we're" doing the work. Badly.
