Oh wait, so now we need friends and allies to help us accomplish international goals?
HERE IT IS:
Earlier this month, without any planning, I drove 6 hrs to the desert to capture the last full lunar eclipse until December 2028
Over 3 hours I shot over 3000 stills, but not the stars
Last Tuesday I drove 4 hrs to capture the stars
After 30+ hrs figuring out editing, this is DONE 🧵
It’s an uphill battle but we’re ready to put up a fight.
13 volunteers calling Putnam County democrats tonight ahead of the May primary.
We are fired up!
Great! Yeah - I think they’d have fun for sure. Details are still a little fuzzy… I’ll let you know as we iron things out
By the way, we’ll be taking the whole family to Gambier for a weekend this fall - we’d love to meet up!
Yeah - we have Mach-e that I’m pretty happy with. It handles our day-to-day and short road trips really well actually.
Yeah - I really wish there were more cars like it. I had a non-wagon one in hs and it was a really great car
Idk why but I really want to get a 1999 Taurus SE Wagon and convert it into an EV
Another example of this:
Despite text-to-SQL having been a possibility for many years now, I have yet to see even the best latest gen models be able to handle a text-to-SQL job approaching anything close to a bog standard enterprise BI job, unless you feed it a ton of data model-specific context.
But eventually they’ll realize there is not vibe coding solution to e.g. unify the HR systems across sixteen daughter companies brought together via M&A over the last seven years.
That just requires work. It’s just that it’s boring work.
Engineering has always been about tradeoffs and judgment and I have seen nothing that indicates that this will change.
You would not believe the hate I got for posting this chart:
It’s a purely irrational response from them. Somehow electric vehicles aren’t real
“Ah! But that’s oil for things we need like cars and electricity. Solar doesn’t power those things”
-Solar NIMBYs
Anti-solar farm people: “we don’t want to risk chemicals getting into our soul and water!”
Meanwhile at county Agriculture Day:

Trump proving to China that their long-term strategy to be the leading producer of electricity from wind and solar as well as electric vehicles was a really, really good decision.

One of the most underrated scandals (there are so many) of the 2nd Trump admin is the assault on the GHG Reduction fund.
Abusing criminal law, improperly blocking appropriated funds, and undermining the government's status as a contractual counterparty.
This whole dark money campaign going after @katmabu.bsky.social is fucked AND ALSO the attempts to recruit out-of-state influencers really intrigue me; influencer culture is having a flattening effect on geography with really big stakes for races getting national attention.
raise taxes on the rich, absolutely. But we should use it to
-build out green energy and transportation
-build more low income housing
-fund universal healthcare
-fund universal childcare
all of these are more important than cutting taxes
uphold @jdcmedlock.bsky.social thought, tax liquidity events like a VAT on securities and call it a day
For the first time in two decades, recent Census Bureau data shows the gender wage gap has widened for two consecutive years
My fear is that these races will be increasingly shaped by voters asking chatbots day of the election who to vote for and the potential for misinformation.
What if we catapult all the oil barrels? If we make a big enough catapult I'm sure we could fling oil barrels like six or seven hundred miles easy. And then they just land in the water and the hungry hungry boats just scoop em up and put them in their tummies.
As a native Upstate New Yorker I’m on board* with making the Erie Canal great again
*hey oooh
“The law isn’t binding others and protecting me enough”
Diversity and inclusion are good when it’s for the dominant culture is a hell of a take www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
COMPLETE AND TOTAL SHOUPISTA CULTURAL VICTORY!!!!!!!!
I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.
