“my nitter instance broke containment and started scraping Twitter…”

Does Vegas still have that stupid fucking tunnel that could have just been a train?

He doesn’t give one shit about the US debt and neither do the Republicans backing him.

If the Dems ever get back in they will start screaming about it sure but why would they care about some made up number.

The Epstein class can just go hang out on their yacht they are not patriots.

Trump is literally demented but the ghouls around him are not.

The plan is plainly obvious.

The big guys will bribe him and get exceptions which means their competition who can’t pay are at a detriment.

Trump gets bribes.

They both juice the market knowing the above.

Ticket Master has been using dynamic pricing for years at this point and while it is not exactly the same thing it’s pretty close.

The airlines and travel industry has also dipped their toes in this before. It’s why people used to say you should clear your cookies or use private browsing when checking prices because the presence of specific third party cookies could affect the prices you saw.

It won’t, you can already see this happening in tons of industries and markets.

The glorious k shape economy means the middle of rapidly shrinking and all the money to be made is at the extremes of the spectrum. You can already see tons of brands increasing prices or pivoting away from non “luxury” offerings.

Soon there will only be Emirates and RyanAir and Delta doesn’t want to be RyanAir.

People in software development who use AI to code don’t realize how many white collar mid level admin people have started totally phoning it in using LLMs. I’m mildly curious to see how long they can ride this out.

Even if they were not recording from his perspective you have no idea what the stupid things are doing. You don’t really control them, Meta does.

Lol at the lawnmower thumbnail

People hate when they identify AI slop.

When it’s not in a context they are used to they don’t even notice and are fine.

Currently I suspect this is greatest in restaurant menu board are art. At least that is where I notice it the most.

You joke but drunk drivers love those trucks.

Software is easier because you can basically ‘inspect the house’ and the ‘home inspector’ via software.

Harder to do that with a house. Also a lot of different rules based on locality.

Yeah the issue with this is that it becomes a major pain to enforce.

Tones of schools have no phone policies but no one enforces it.

Students won’t give them up and parents get upset because they can’t contact little Timmy or because his 1500 iPhone is in someone’s desk.

In large organizations when the order comes down from on high that ‘we are all in on whatever’ AI in this case, middle managers and product owners start looking for ways to ram that thing into their product so they can keep playing the game.

Also his donation is presumably either somewhat or entirely enabled by mullvad so voting with your dollar is about the only way to express dissatisfaction.

They need a classic appeal to ‘think of the children’

We have to trample rights or we can’t protect your children from the bad people.

As much as people around here rage at AI usage one thing it is very very good at is speeding up efficiency work like this. Building test harnesses and synthesizing the output from a number of profiling tools is made much much faster with the use of large language models.

Windows was sold that’s true and as you say the app store came with the attempt at a mobile / tablet OS.

Windows is well into the extract phase of the product. Microsoft missed the mobile boat and fewer and fewer people are buying laptops. Grandma gets by on a tablet etc. so things are just going to get worse and worse for Windows users going forward.

Weird they were not using jemalloc to begin with. It’s basically the default go to allocator for everything I do unless there is some specific use case that requires a different one.

What? No it’s not. The selling point of the app store is the owner of the app store gets to rent seek. Getting to control the app store is the selling point of developing an ‘OS’ for free.

You as the user are just the product.
