The burden of proof is always, always on the people claiming that their quadro tracker full of dead ants and random bits of the innards of a smashed remote control, is actually helping things.
It's not on the people going "hey man that thing is electronic waste, it's not helping the situation"

tbh anybody who's worked on an old PC game and owns the rights to the source code should just release it into the wild, if you don't have any other plans for it. Maybe now it seems like nobody cares about it but I promise you there will be someone who does.
I have a nuclear reaction encoding defined as ``` struct NuclearReaction { int explosionPower; // explosion power struct NuclearReaction *next; // next nuclear reaction } *NuclearReactionSequence; ``` Doctor evil has realised through his time machine he can run the nuclear reaction in reverse. Write a function that takes a nuclear reaction sequence and updates in place to do the reaction in reverse.

A flatscreen display on a "smart" water fountain, demanding to be reconnected to the internet.
In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try."
Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!
"Simmons revealed she made $22,000 in 2025.
"The CEO of DoorDash made $313 million in the same year."

"And that never has to get reported to the FEC b/c it's between two private individuals even though the messaging and the influence is for political purposes."
The FEC is useless and still living in a world where the internet does not exist. www.tiktok.com/@ashstc/vide...
i dream of the day when the average coder is willing and able to treat their code like a piece of art
seriously hope when dems get back in power they go after every single fuck involved with DOGE
the basic theory of DOGE was that if powerful people said it was fine it didn’t matter what the law said.
I think proving that theory wrong is worth significant effort
So at the risk of maybe overreading this and making an educated guess, I think I can guess what specifically Wyden is talking about.
I think it's about use of AI (LLMs) by FBI to surveil American communications without a warrant
bluesky status page showing issues in one of their "reginos"
🤌
I don't think every failure on BlueSky arises from vibe coding, but I do think every failure on BlueSky arises from a quality control that is culturally pervasively permissive of vibe coding.
It's like a canary in a coal mine, if the canary carried typhoid and the coal mine was a tech office.
Another story on this farmer being exposed to oil and gas emissions. Tim went there to do the OGI work for us last year. He explained what he saw.
"They just were continuously venting the whole time we were there," he said, adding this was common at sites he visited in other provinces.
It’s a telling indicator of media desensitization that the US government’s ongoing program of murder on the high seas—which according to the perpetrators has killed fourteen (14) people this week— is no longer a subject for much serious or sustained news coverage.

Sen. Mike Crapo blocked Sen. Elizabeth Warren's last-ditch attempt to preserve the IRS's free Direct File program.
In the last election cycle, Crapo was the top GOP congressional recipient of campaign contributions from the corporate PAC of TurboTax's parent company.

As Trump plots to take over the midterm elections, he has gotten rid of the federal guardrails that stopped him from overturning the 2020 election, hired two dozen election deniers, and empowered MAGA extremists.
if anything, focusing on where the money is is probably a good way to make money?? weird criticism from that investor
i feel bad for our country but this is tremendous content
a screenshot of the "New Bestsellers" list from Substack, with Andrew Tate in the #1 position
Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.

sure it's funny that Trump said the Pope is weak on nuclear weapons, but that doesn't make the Pope any less evil, and you don't have to say you think he's "woke" or you like him just because he isn't disagrees with Trump on some issues (but clearly not on others).
