Are we going to talk about how insidious it is that X and the media are pulling the "Grok says" line to remove accountability from the product owners and developers themselves?! Grok does not have autonomy or agency.

Hegseth needs to be in jail for the rest of his life, and that’s the moderate option.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

I miss this show so much - in a just world we would have so many more seasons of it.
bring back NBC's Kings
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

How in the hell do you come off a result like last Tuesday and then pull this kind of shit? The resounding message of Tuesday was to STICK TO YOUR PRINCIPLES, not bow to insane demands. My entire adult life has been this asshole and those like him fumbling the bag.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis
For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare
We will keep fighting

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Now that #dotnet code coverage will be coming to #visualstudio professional 2026, is there perhaps also any info on Testcase Impact Analysis ( #TIA) for #azuredevops CI/CD pipelines (as far as I can tell it was never supported for .Net Core?)

One of the best things that I've done this year is get back into choral singing - it's reconnected me with a part of myself that I haven't engaged with in ~15 years! Making music with other people has always been an almost religious experience for me, and I didn't realize how much I missed it!

So apparently my client has decided that we should (1) start using Cursor, and (2) show up at the office four days a week.
After more than 6 years there, I’m thinking this might be my cue to eject.
Anyone looking for a coder for a remote gig (or hybrid in Stockholm)?

Could be interesting to use as a basis for Spectre or other things (I was thinking about MSBuild Terminal Logger).
