Good. If Cory Booker sees the way the winds are blowing and wants to start pushing in that direction, good.

You can tell Fox News is scared because when I googled his name, I got

Top stories - Fox News- Cory Booker confronted with old clip of himself saying he loves Donald Trump

(The context is that he’s religious and loves all people, including his enemies, but of course they leave that out.)

Should be fine. They don’t have to use a browser to retrieve that feed.

Our bans are… less effective than Reddits. So it’s not just that we hand them out less.

Hey! It’s someone with actual development experience.

It’s the dotcom boom and bust.

The hype among corpos that AI is going to replace all labor is stupid. But when the bust happens and the hype dies down, we’re still gonna be ordering pizzas online, Amazon will exist, and it’ll be a thing we work with forever.

It could have some tangential uses, done responsibly. “Hey Claude, check the source material for all of these citations and find any that disagree with the way they’re being used in the Wikipedia article.”

And then, critically, you have a human review that output.

AI is going to be useful in a number of areas.

This isn’t one of them.

The best use of AI is when it can look up existing text that you know already exists and apply it to your circumstances.

Wikipedia is the opposite of that. It is the existing text. AI Wikipedia would be the exact ouroburos of bullshitifying the Internet that experts have been warning about.

I mean, it’s an important headline, and I’m glad it’s out there, but…

yes. Anyone paying attention already knew this. This is for the benefit of those who haven’t, and to create a record.

the ads went away when the internet access did.

Then why are you mad?

It can be both.

8GB ram though.

He had enough evidence to state the conclusion clearly.

It’s obvious he wanted Congress to do that part, but he still needed to say it.

Even so, he did fight the good fight, and I’m not going to hate a man for a slight miscalculation of strategy that only became obvious with hindsight.

Also he’s here completely legally.

Believe it or not there was a time before Trump.

Arguable

Copilot isn’t bad, but generally I agree.

It’s a tool that can be helpful, or you can just create problems for yourself down the road.

It’s a lot like building a house. After all the drywall is up, it’s hard to tell if the studs are 18 inches apart or five feet apart, but you’re gonna find out eventually.

I wouldn’t call the apologists for Russia and China “leftist” though. The only thing "left’ about them is that they hate the United States. That isn’t enough to qualify, imo.

It’s not realistic to expect no AI assistance in coding in 2026.

It’s also not a stand-in for a human. There’s a huge field of gray where it’s unclear how much of it was fully vibe coded vs how much is carefully hand reviewed and/or written.

I’ve been a professional developer for decades and I’ve done both. Obviously I’ve hand coded stuff for many years. The fully vibe coded stuff is personal, to test and learn the capabilities of the tech. My professional stuff I watch much more closely, and I’m much more targeted in what I’m having the AI do.

That said, if I were gonna use this I’d actually review the code. I’m not recommending this guy’s stuff, but you can’t rule it out on the basis of ai assistance alone.
