@AlphaNews They are really focusing on the important things.

🚨 BREAKING: The Minneapolis City Council moves forward with the potential legalization of "adult bathhouses and sex venues." "The 1988 ban wasn't a neutral policy. It was written during a moral panic targeting gay men," says Council Member Jason Chavez. Do you think this is a good idea?

We said it yesterday and we'll keep shouting: NO TAXPAYER SUBSIDIES FOR MISERABLE #MNMEDIA. If you had "quality journalism" YOU WOULDN'T NEED SUBSIDIES. Go away.

Speaker Demuth introduces the North Star Comeback budget, which includes the largest tax cut proposal in state history at $3.8 billion. Watch 👇

Sincere request from those on the left side of the political spectrum in Minnesota: Please explain how this is sustainable.

Minnesota has one of the worst gaps between population growth and spending in the last decade. Population grew 6%. State spending grew 48%, inflation adjusted. Again - where did all the money go?

@KennyP70012946 @MNHRCWarRoom Check your reading again. It's 1 percent on values above $10 million. ($12m - $10m) * 0.01 = $20,000

@sr_erick @MNHRCWarRoom Check your math again paste. 1% of 12 million is $120,000!

House Democrats are trying to raise taxes again - this time by taxing unrealized gains and imposing an annual tax on Minnesotans’ net worth, not just their income.

@TitanTrader911 @MNHRCWarRoom It's 1 percent on values above $10 million.

@sr_erick @MNHRCWarRoom 1% on $10 million is $100,000 annually.

Bezos had the vision, took the risk, and built Amazon from nothing. Since founding, Amazon has employed roughly 11.5 million worker-years globally, paid about $47.7 billion in disclosed cash income taxes since 2002 alone, and its U.S. workforce has likely generated another roughly $35–45 billion in federal income and payroll taxes. That’s before counting the value created for 200M+ Prime members and 300M+ active customers worldwide whose quality of life has been vastly improved by Amazon. And you, in your infinite wisdom, want to financially punish the creator of Amazon?

@SenWarren Why don’t you guys eliminate fraud before asking for more money?

@Stone_Tao If you know what you are building and the overall software architecture of what you are building it is much easier. "Vibe" coders who have never built a damn thing in their life but now depend on AI are going to struggle without foundational software engineering experience.

genuine question. how do you debug code and ensure good quality when coding models spit out 1000s of lines i still cannot feel comfortable not understanding what every generated line does, reducing the productivity gains coding models should be giving me

@LuftkoppTim They deserve what the market is willing to pay for their skills. They are free to look elsewhere for work if they feel the value they provide is underpaid.

I'm so fucking sick of this framing. It's literally NOT "his" jet. It's LTT property. Owned for content. Stop this bullshit. And also stop this shit of "underpaid employees" here. "I think I deserve more" ≠ underpaid

@krispuckett @Daryn_Stilwell @openclaw @claudeai Someone was always covering the GPUs, bud, and it wasn't magically free. Now you get an idea of how much it was costing Anthropic.

@Daryn_Stilwell @openclaw @claudeai I could pay for api usage which would be an incredible cost change for me. Still have options.

Anyone else using @openclaw with Codex? How is it compared to @claudeai ? Seriously considering canceling Max plan now.

Subs are for normal chatting and Anthropic’s own tools, not nonstop agent loops that eat tokens like crazy. It’s like an all-you-can-eat buffet: if one guy camps out for days, everyone else suffers. Boot the heavy users or make them pay by the plate. Power users should either step up to metered pricing or just buy hardware and run local models 24/7. Cloud convenience has limits. Makes sense to me.

Feels like Anthropic is playing this too short term tbh. doing this now does not magically convert openclaw users into claude customers open source always finds a way🦞

@IlyanovVladimir @marinatedvapor @bigben7182000 @steipete Exactly. People are crying but this is the standard across ALL industry players. They aren't "blocking" access, people just need to use the correct door. In fact, I'd say Anthropic has been more lenient than most.

@marinatedvapor @bigben7182000 @steipete Does Grok/OpenAI or ANY other allow 3rd party use with web sub? NO. So fck off.

@steipete Claude is officially revoking non-API usage for 3rd party harnesses. Not sure if it’s universal or account specific.

@zackstephenson You look like the only thing you're standing with is a 1.75 of Captain Morgan. Can't wait to get home and "protect" that bottle after today's theater. Real kid safety? Your caucus voted no on that.

Yesterday, we pushed to advance bills to protect Minnesotans. Every Democrat voted in favor of moving these bills forward, and every Republican voted against them. Now the public knows whether their representative stands with kids or with ICE and the gun lobby.

@zackstephenson Oh, the shocking sadness of it all! If you ran a real business the way you and your DFL crew run school budgets, you'd be filing for bankruptcy while tweeting about how "the system" failed your employees. Anoka-Hennepin is axing ~75 positions, including 26 social workers and 6 counselors, after burning through one-time COVID cash, thanks to declining enrollment, inflation, and all those shiny unfunded mandates your party loves piling on (paid leave, etc.). Zero private-sector experience, yet you're outraged at the predictable math. Mental health is "critical"... until it's time to live within actual means instead of demanding more taxpayer bailouts for the same broken model. Brilliant leadership, Rep. "Fix the system"... just not the one you helped break.

At a time when our kids are struggling with mental health more than ever, it is shocking and sad to see our district laying off 75 social workers, counselors, and support staff. We need to do what we can to right these wrongs and fix the system that has let our kids down.

Claude watching me write code manually after I hit the daily limit

Minnesotans have been demanding justice for years over the billions in welfare, childcare, and Medicaid fraud that exploded on your watch. You dropped your reelection bid because of it, yet no real accountability for the enablers in your administration. When do the people who let this happen face consequences instead of just preaching about "justice"?

Minnesotans will demand justice.

Hell yeah. I'm fucking sick of this microservices circus and those bloated JavaScript SPAs that ship hundreds of KB (or worse) of framework garbage just to display a button and update a list. The old server-rendered HTML approach wasn't "legacy", it was sane. We turned web dev into a goddamn distributed systems PhD project for no reason.

coding in the early 2000s vs. coding now 😂
