Honestly, I can’t be bothered to get that worked up about gas. I’ve exclusively bought hybrids for like a decade now, and I’ve moved to areas that are close to work and anything else I want to go to. I fill up less than once a month. If gas is “really high”, it might break $40 for a fill up, which is less than I’d spend at a cheap restaurant if I got an appetizer and two entrees. It’s literally a rounding error on my monthly budget, so even if it was $20/gallon, I would be unfazed.

Unironically I think this is my only shot at getting past our code debt.

That’s the thing on betting 400k on Maduro being out of power by the end of the month. It doesn’t matter if you only bet 1k, it’s still blatant insider trading.

I think their argument might make more sense for something like Julia that’s actually closer to feature-parity with Python. Python created a common language where developers, scientists, and tinkerers used the same tool. If AI coding holds, maybe we’ll see those communities split off again to different typed languages.

You were lucky it wasn’t the $250 circuit board that failed, which charged $50 for shipping.

Surely the world’s leading advocate for vibe coding wouldn’t have issues with code stability. This is only their second colossal issue this week!

There’s a plaque somewhere in Dublin that said “Blah blah blah lived here; scientist, engineer, financier, manager…” For like 20 professions. As it happens, their son became a famous poet, can’t remember the name right now, and he made his own plaque right below it, which said “Blah blah blah Jr lived here; author, poet, wit.”

I couldn’t help but feel that one of them was dramatically more successful than the other.

Well that was neat

But Apple told me in an ad that they’re better for privacy?!?

Ils? Peut-être “nous”?

And when the ghost of Christmas future comes to visit and show him his tombstone, he will be unfazed because he cannot read.

Twenty years from now: “In the land down under, we call these boys grizzly gorillas. You can remember them by the shorthand ‘gg’, cuz that’s all there is to say if you ever meet one.”

I had a TV in the bedroom, but removing it was one of the best choices I made. I liked the idea of creating TV-free spaces so much that I moved the TV out of the living room too. The living room is a social space, the TV room is a dedicated room to watch the TV. There is no context where “the TV is just on”.

I’m impressed that they made another issue that’s somehow bigger than casting Jonathan Majors.

There was a push back when HD was kinda new for 4-color TVs. I guess it would just reprocess 3-color data inputs into 4-color output or something. It seemed to die down when 4k caught on as the “next thing”

It does produce less CO2 for the equivalent energy release.

Even if range drops, if the price goes down and CO2 emissions go down too, it’ll be a win. I’m virtually never worried about the range of a gas tank.

Unironically, I think this is what did her in. Not the line itself, but the fact that the DOW went back below 50k soon after. He doesn’t really have much reason to fire her. I mean, she’s an idiot and evil, but so is he, and that’s kinda exactly the kind of person Trump wants on his team. Everyone Trump fires seems to make the following mistakes:

1. They take too much spotlight from him
2. They get caught making a quote that goes viral
3. They get unlucky with their news presence for several weeks in a row

They never do something so bad that it can’t be recovered from, Trump’s certainly had worse moments in the news, but if you stay down for long enough, you’ll get the chopping block. Ultimately, it’s just kinda random bad luck that decides who stays and goes.
