Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

I'm mad about the shut down and worried about healthcare, but not letting people starve is a pretty good reason to cave on this bureaucratic fight, the more I think about it. So just say that: Republicans wanted you to starve rather than compromise, so we let this one go.

instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

Trump to air traffic controllers: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK"

"Mister Sturluson, I presume?"
"You can call me Snorri. Mister Sturluson is my father."
"You can call me Snorri. Mister Sturluson is my father."
Just discovered that a show based on Sturlunga saga is apparently in the making? It fills me with dread.

Really exciting book news out of Norway. And while the article focusses on the sealskin binding, I'm even more excited by the fact that these neumes are not square, which suggests a date well before 1200.

I’m blown away by how effective it is at specific tasks, but it’s not even 10% of what Silicon Valley is selling it to be.
The sheer number of the data center expenses should have popped the bubble a while ago.
They’re about to enshittify ChatGPT with ads.
It’s over.

I do a lot of QA/UAT testing so I’m pretty used to telling devs that they fucked up.
I’ve done the same with AI coding, and not once has it corrected what I asked it to.
CEOs who think AI can replace developers completely and have basic functioning systems integration are fucking stupid.

Groked about my saga, Ljósvetninga saga. Grok is just spewing bullshit. I wrote an open access article on this topic that is readily available, and there are other open access places, including Wikipedia, where there is much more accurate information about this saga. It doesn't know shit.
