I'll say it again: it's amazing how many Americans who enjoy dystopian science-fiction media are also proving themselves to be 100% on board for signing over most of their cognitive function to technological tools run by sinister, giant corporations.
It really does feel like a lot of formerly reasonable people have been infected by some sort of terrifying brain parasite when it comes to unthinking and total acceptance of using AI tools
Absolute worst part, imo, is the pressure from school administrators to "welcome our new overlords" by adopting AI. It's also happening in elite universities, to my utter bafflement & horror. Anyone who calls bullshit on AI is treated as if only ignorance could explain their perspective.

I can’t decide whether the term “vibe coding” is too cringy or appropriately cringy.

I'm starting a little side project to make navigation in static sites super fast.

It's pretty much just a demo right now but I hope to integrate it with static site generators. #webdev #programming

does this guy think the “gilded age” is a compliment?
Trump: "We were the richest relatively -- think of this -- from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest. Because we collected tariffs ... we had so much wealth. Of course, now we give it away to transgender ... everybody gets a transgender operation."

I read Tolkien as a kid, and the lesson I got was the biggest heroes were the Hobbits; and that enough power can break anyone but the greatest of us will be tempted the most and would *be* the worst.
Others read Tolkien and name their killbot factory after the good guy's sword. You know?

Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.

This is the list of 27 banned words distributed to NSA staff:
