Biden Transcript Calls Into Question Hur’s Memory Claims: The president was never even asked about the timing of his son’s death

In fact, the transcript shows that Hur never even asked about Beau’s death. It was Biden himself who brought up the subject while he discussed a book in which he addressed his son’s illness and death, according to AP, which has reviewed the transcript. “What month did Beau die?” Biden asked, before adding: “Oh God, May 30th,” the correct date. After a White House lawyer said the death was in 2015, Biden asked: “Was it 2015 he died?”

So the transcript showed that Hur didn't ask Biden about the death date. The White House lawyer said the year and Biden was not sure about the exact month and day, but got it within the same conversation.

Sounds like it happened in like 10 seconds. If that's the case, I have "significant limitations" too...

The Cloud Is a Prison. Can the Local-First Software Movement Set Us Free?

I mean…

I gotta say, I really hate it when people say this statement.

That’s a pithy saying, but the cloud is a totally different model than a “computer”.

The concept of “cloud” (generally) has its own way of interacting with tooling, it’s got a huge economy of scale that brings resiliency, a ton of interconnected services, etc. There’s more to it than just computers.

That’s like saying “the Highway doesn’t exist, it’s just someone else’s driveway.”—yeah, but there’s more to it than just streets.
