Since the next step for people like Trump is to blame the consequences of his actions on others, the most effective response to people like this is "It sounds like they lied to you." You can't turn these people into overnight liberals; you *can* shake their trust in the people who deceived them.
In the coming weeks, a lot of slow-on-the uptake folks are going to begin belatedly realizing Trump is both an inept moron and a dangerous autocrat. Our great civic challenge in these trying times will be calmly welcoming them aboard instead of primal-screaming in their faces.

We just launched a 16TB archive of every dataset that has been available on data.gov since November. This will be updated day by day as new datasets appear. It can be freely copied, and we're sharing the code behind it to help others make their own archives of data they depend on.

I really appreciate the number of reasonable posts from super senior developers who talk about how they’re using LLMs, which tasks they’re good for in software dev, and which don’t make sense at all.

One place where LLMs are useful: generating commit messages, given that:
1. You understand and can evaluate the message
2. The scoped code change is small
3. Your model is fast enough
Still playing around but this script+ prompt works fairly well out of the box:

Chris Fenton made this hilarious LLM-powered robot for his yard (and for one night it was an elevator greeter at NYCResistor) and I laughed out loud at his writeup: www.chrisfenton.com/meet-grasso-...
