You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Might be a long shot, but does anyone know a real human I could commission to write a short story in the Catalan/Valencian language? Bonus points if they are queer/adjacent.

Not as small as I would like, but I think the Mach E is just about the most car-like EV on the market that still has all of the top tier EV features. Weโ€™ve had ours for two years now and I still love it. The Bolt would probably be my second tier favorite, especially for size, but charging is nerfed

In hindsight I wish they would have been designed as (for x in y if foo yield x) so that it *actually* matched what the expanded block for would have been, I think that would have made nested fors significantly more intuitive to write.

while I have a level of sympathy for the california/colorado style of age-verification law, and I think many reactions against it are overheated, at the end of the day we still have to oppose stuff like this because society's ideas of what ought to be age-gated are just wrong on the merits. the [โ€ฆ]

What a day to be traveling to see friends and meet new ones, with absolutely nothing on my mind whatsoever to talk about.

Shame Iโ€™m going from 80F sunshine to 45F rain though.

People keep telling me to treat LLMs as junior devs, as if "a junior dev who is structurally incapable of learning from mistakes" isn't a working definition of hell.

it is a GOOD MORNING to buy a #NBPy ticket

You may not be attending #NBPy until next month, but we still need to make plans, and knowing how many of you to expect can really help!
