The irony is laid on thick here... not only about the new "insurrection" . . .

"If we didn't get involved, Los Angeles would be burning. Los Angeles right now would be on fire, and we have it in great shape." -Trump

Someone who cared about LA burning wouldn't be rolling back environmental regulations and cutting funding to the Forestry Service for wildfire prevention...

His name is likely why he gets these MAGA gigs in the first place . . .

Jesus Christ that's scary... i wonder what percentage of those comments are real American fascists vs propaganda bots

i think the idea is install this on your PC, and it displays notifications from your headless servers journals over ssh

Apparently Weiss' problem with the piece in its current form is that they didn't interview Stephen Miller so he could tell viewers why it was all actually OK

as long as he gets to be there to watch

Hugo Boss Project 2025 line

ummm, this judge just ruled it was illegal - the order violated the Posse Comitatus act. There was no "rebellion" at the time of the order, therefore it was illegal, and those following the illegal orders should be penalized.

Illegal orders don't just become illegal after a judge rules that they were....

Queue the "woke wars"

what basic task have you run into that requires the command line? have you tried Mint? my 83 year old dad has been on mint for over a year with no complaints, and I don't think he even knows how to open the terminal . . .

Family?

O - oxponent?

So you're saying we don't need to blend them...

Should've done a special military operation instead to keep things to a few days...

on top of that, I'm pretty sure electron apps in the background can't be moved from RAM to Pagefile when they've been idle for a while . . . id imagine edge webview likely works the same

I'm liking Weissand Effect

Yup, yesterday I decided it was finally time to write unit/feature tests on a project that had gotten way to far aling with 0 tests. Just over an hour of babysitting Codex and now I've got 800 tests covering 16 models and 60+ endpoints (8000 lines of code) in the exact code style I wanted based on my AGENTS. Honestly, reading through the tests, I wouldn't know that I didn't write them!

Now, trying to use AI to solve a novel problem, or even a not so novel one with any logical complexity, and hours can easily be wasted trying to guide it, correct it's mistakes, and then eventually roll it all back and do it yourself because your smart enough, just being lazy! 😬

OK, if your talking homebrew on Mac, then your not just doing "basic" things. yes, for power users on Linux, we need to use the CLI. For actual basic things (browsing, word processing, consuming media) you absolutely don't need to touch it at all on many "noob" distros.

So claiming that there's a steep learning curve for basic things is going to turn off new users, who would be perfectly fine never looking at a terminal to do what they need

I agree, human vetting from experience is essential. But with agenetic, tool calling LLMs, you can (and should IMO) require multiple solutions be explored and presented with the tradeoffs for each option clearly outlined, and wait for you guidance to proceed with the advisee approach.

LLM can definitely be used to churn out garbage code based on the averaging of everything, but can also be a super useful tool, if used effectively, to quickly see the most common ways a problem is solved, and then design and iterate a solution that works for your project.

Similar to how I used to use SO, but with reasoned reviews of all the posted solutions and the ability to prototype what might work best for what I need.

The direction the black hole "toilet" flushes as it sucks stuff in and smashes it against each other?

Maybe there's a parallel universe called Astraliastra where the black hole flushes the other direction!
