This was on my mind, but then I just watched it yesterday.

That would be genius. Let them yell about it in the media until everyone knows that guillotines are on the menu.

He looks TERRIBLE

You know this is what trump is most angry about.

Edit: he knows Ivanka will give him her Justin Trudeau look

Yeah, it’s going to be crazy. The scariest part is that most people communicate using platforms that (being generous) will not benefit from his policies.

I’m still optimistic they can get people hyped up for the class war.

If Mamdani loses, there’s a possibility that he could run on the Working Families Party line in the general election — though Gripper said the New York WFP has not decided whether they’ll run a candidate on their line in the general election and will make a decision after the final primary results come in.

Please do this if it comes to it.

There’s a film that covers how they named Gleemonex:

I’ve just never personally voted using RCV on a ballot that requires you to rank that many candidates for a valid ballot. That seems unnecessary.

You have to rank 5 candidates? What the hell is the reasoning behind that?

All non-American citizens need to carry proof of their legal status.

Since this is illogical I guess we all know what they mean by ‘non-American citizens’.

It’s well worth reading the entire paper. It’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever read.

The first decision has to be vim/emacs.

71 of the 76 bills that Abbott vetoed passed through both chambers with a veto-proof majority, or more than two-thirds support.

What is a veto-proof majority if he can still veto them?

It seems strange that they want to reconvene to deal with them instead of just making them actually veto-proof. I guess it’s probably about making minimal changes to the constitution.

Or to copy something and modify it 30 times.

This seems like a very bad idea. I think we just need more lisp and less AI.

That’s crazy.

Since GPUs got into the TFLOP range I often think of this old magazine cover:

The tough-on-crime people should really be pushing for the death penalty here.

Zero chance this company replaced him with an AI that actually does anything useful.

I was a pretty experienced programmer when I first read SICP, but I still found it incredibly valuable. I’d recommend it to anyone.

I had pretty much the same experience finding the virtual memory settings on a win11 machine the other day. Same 20 year old dialog, now buried 5 more layers deep.

It’s such a good idea. I can’t believe they didn’t think of it sooner.
