Same here. But of course and as expected and 5 hours later, the GP comment offers no solutions for this "better computer science".

It shows they really don't care and wants to rage-bait readers in their weekly grumpiness without any suggestions.

Unless they come up with said "solution", they can completely ignored in their complaints.

Why not both?

Any stack has its own warts.

This is how ridiculous this industry is. Regulation-seeking panic over nothing. Drama in search of a moat.

They move OK if you dismantle them.

I agree with your summary. Greed has won out over everything else.

In the US there was a slight drop around that time, but not close to 25% in the eu. If it was due to businesses buying less physical media wouldn't it be sth seen in the US data in some year too?

(a bit easier in table form as the graph does not aggregate accross all means of transport).

Isn't it perfectly reasonable to require an account for any use, and to ensure that making one has a high level difficulty anubis challenge or delay ?

Claude Opus 5, with high thinking, generates the video in a single shot.

The one that asks questions at the beginning is Gemini Flash 3.7.

The person responsible for the GNIS corruption and the leadership of Google are in essence conjoined twins. The tech oligarchs are not going to make decisions based on interests that aren’t aligned directly with their personal enrichment; and the GNIS Corrupter-in-Chief wields such personal interests rather effectively.

yep, i have a little helper in my zshrc for this sort of thing:

alias git-hot-refs="git branch --sort=committerdate | tail"

I'm curious, what programming language and model/harness do you use, and are there some specific practices that you use?

TLDR basically old tech is not optimized for scrapers / slurpers / etc. to the point it would take 42n to solve all possible combinations. Why? Murphy's law. Solution for OP is to ignore for now. Otherwise Use or invent something else. Easy enough.

But we can blame AI for making it much worse in 5 years instead of making it less bad as everyone agreed to ~10 years ago (until an idiot ascended the throne)

Does anyone have any recommendations for something like Cursor but more open? Cursor's harness is so much faster than anything else I've used that I just can't give it up, using Claude Code feels like being on 0.25x speed. Also I do like the IDE-style UI, being able to highlight code in a file editor and then quickly add that to my chat (Cmd-L) is really nice and much more difficult in CLI based harnesses.

Right now I think GPT 5.6 Luna is by far the most cost effective model, so this change is effectively kicking me off of Cursor.

> Since arguably the 1940s the people running the United States have been consistently trading power over the domains they consider illegible and confusing for power over the domains they consider tractable and familiar, under elite job market conditions where they are incentivised to know as much as possible about abstract court politics and the manipulation of language and as little as possible about the real world.

My question was grounded in ignorance and curiosity. Appreciate the response, gives me a lot to think about. Cheers

Needs "2011" in the title. For example the section about friction drive hasn't been true for about a decade now

To the extent code is artistic expression, sure, I get what you're saying.

But when you sit down at an awesome synth and start jamming, do you care whether the firmware was written by a real live human?

It's forest/trees.

Khmm yes my bratann hn_throw2025, many things Khar very odd since 2016 to me khas well.. like khow NATO and EU keep threatening the Khomeland.

Need to scale and have deployments in different locations, more guaranteed uptime, more resources that I have at home.

Would be a good problem to have!

For hobbies and even small businesses a home server on residential ISP is a lot of fun

In the US, it's "legal" for "law enforcement" to use Stingray equipment, which transmits on licensed cellular spectrum and interferes with customers who use the spectrum, sometimes even preventing calls for emergency services. This should be a plain and simple violation of FCC regulations, but who's going to enforce that law against law enforcement?

Three quarters of the world live in autocracies, and another 19% outside liberal democracies.

That will require adapted tactics. I'm not very qualified to speak on how to convince people in leadership positions there. How do you convince Erdogan, Modi, Putin, Trump, Xi, the North Korean dynasty and others?

It was a very reasonable decision when it was made around 2008.

Do you really expect a US based company to go to legal war with the US government over something like this? Because there would 100% be repercussions it they did.

What LLMs are you using?

I can't pop outside to check, I'm too busy filling Russel's Teapot from this von Neumann Kettle.

> Aren't we as a western society responsible for the destruction and destabiliztion of the eastern countries?

How far do you want to go back?

The well known papers are not what the talk is about though. The talk is titled "The root of the root..." specifically to go over the specific and incredibly/almost impossible to find citations those well known papers used and built upon to see what historical insights that might have been lost went into how those papers are now interpreted (or as the video argues, misinterpreted).
