here's the 60 minutes cecot video part 1 of 5 - recorded/uploaded by and all credit to @jasonparis.bsky.social

I just reduced background noise, chopped the 14 minutes into 3 minute segments each compressed under 100 mb for bsky's limits, cropped and rotated a few degrees for easier viewing on here

Working on an integration between a client and 3rd party API, and they're paying $750 for 1k requests/month. Already crazy. But go over the limit and it's 0.50/req? Never seen an overflow discount before

Oh my god, Copilot is allowed to create and fix issues on Microsoft github repos and it goes exactly as you'd have imagined.

Try going into any of these PRs commits to see poor Microsoft engineers try to coerce Copilot into doing literally anything right.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

New on the Secret Area: "Halo with chips" has been found.

A dumb back of the box quote from Maxim magazine promoting a poker video game had become a small meme. I wanted to find out where it came from.

This was a strategy. They were gonna make AI so good and so expensive to compete with (while prohibiting the sale of decent AI chips), that China would never catch up. But whoops, AI isn't that good, and it's exponentially cheaper to make it decent at stuff people actually use it for.
it says a lot about an industry if a free and open source alternative to every product on the market can destroy 1 trillion dollars of “value” in one day lol
