@DavidDanielGann @ryanflorence even if it has to make you wrong to do it. yeah. that's what i assumed too. they overshot by a good margin though.

GPT-5.5 does it to me all the time
Ryan Florence@ryanflorence
GPT has a new phenomenon that's driving me nuts and I don't quite know how to describe it. - Ask it if I can do something - It says "no you can't [incredibly twisted restatement of what I asked but also not at all what I asked]" - It then tells me how to do the thing wonderfully - And finishes with an insulting "But you can't just [stupid thing I never actually said]" It goes something like this: "Can I form and coach a youth soccer team for my kid and play in P/D level leagues? Or do I have to be part of a full club?" Then it says: "For official competitive teams in Utah, you cannot just form a random team and enter a league. "There is a lesser-known option: UYSA allows independent teams to enter leagues if they meet requirements. [...lists some simple requirements...] "But it’s not “show up with a group of kids on game day”—it’s more like running a small club team administratively. I never said just "show up with a group of kids on game day"! It does this to me with code too. It's so weird.

You're eating out and the bill is $74 - what are you tipping? Be honest, I'm trying to prove a point.

@wagslane I would probably not cancel over that but I wouldn’t renew.
English
I literally can't win with pronouns on Boot dev, it's insane. We have people cancel over NOT using "they" in lesson text and people cancelling over us USING "they".
> In one of your lessons you refer to a single person named "Logan" using the third person plural pronoun.
>
> At this point without assurances that the developers intend to correct the course material to correctly use the grammatically correct generic masculine as the correct generic pronoun, I have no interest in financially supporting the intentional cultural vandalism of my personal linguistic heritage
Here's your refund, you won't be missed.
I DON'T CARE about this. I don't care. WHY DO PEOPLE CARE. These are not real people in the lesson text. They're genderless EXAMPLES. Sometimes we say he/she, sometimes we say they, it depends on context and which maintainer happened to update it last.
wwhwhhwyyyyy dooooo weee careeee sooo much. get a life.

@DavidAd65794047 @DataRepublican @bknuth96 @wilksopinion @SKDoubleDub33 @CynicalPublius Can you provide evidence for these disturbing claims?
English
@DataRepublican @bknuth96 @wilksopinion @SKDoubleDub33 @CynicalPublius Data Republican is paid propagandist who enriches herself and her family by dividing every day Americans and protecting her politician handlers in the government.
English
Data Republican did it again.
She really is a precious jewel on our political landscape.
Can someone with knowledge of Utah politics explain why there is this rabid leftist bent in Utah?
I would think with LDS so prominent that it would be the nation's most conservative state, yet it produces Mitt Romneys.

🧵🚨 THREAD: Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University. Within TWO HOURS, leaders of 7 "bridge-building" organizations assembled on a conference call. Why so fast? Because UVU was THEIR campus. 🚨 This is Maury Giles, incoming CEO of Braver Angels, admitting on camera at the National Conference on Citizenship: "Within two hours of the assassination, a group of us, all Utahns, we gathered on a call. We'd become friends over the last 5 years through our work in the community. And we also happen to be leaders in seven different national organizations that work in civic renewal." Two hours. Seven national organizations. But this wasn't a spontaneous reaction to a tragedy. This was a network protecting its home turf. Because UVU wasn't just the place where Kirk was shot. It was the institutional center of the entire bridge-building / Dignity Index apparatus... and had been for years. And the kicker? These seven national organizations don't hide their own intent: replicate color revolution tactics in the United States. And, yes, that includes MWEG - Mormon Women for Ethical Government. I have the receipts... they all admitted this on camera. As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

Why do product designers think "Hide all UI chrome on scroll and then scroll back up a little to reveal the navigation UI" is good?
This trend just keeps going, am I the only one who dislikes it?
There are so many vertical pixels, you can leave the tabs on screen I promise

@pika_nekopanda I literally don’t know any. Sorry bro.

@kentcdodds @aarondfrancis I personally know several. I can kind of understand.

Palmer's response here is a masterclass in persuasion.
The immediate gentle laugh and careful ribbing "oh no you're killing me!"
Likeable, friendly, easy going, then gives a cool straightforward rebuttal

@DataRepublican @DrFrankTurek I will show you my faith by my works.

IMPORTANT QUESTION: Is salvation by faith alone, or by faith plus works?

@AbeV4U @yezhang1998 I think it’s more like governments etc are interested in the ability to spy on everyone’s infrastructure.
English
@yezhang1998 It's the whole reason they're doing this in the first place. They ran out of open source code to train from. So now they need to move to the giant clothes, source industrial software.
English
Genuine question: if every major company starts scanning their entire codebase with Claude Code (auth flows, security logic, vuln patches, all of it) isn’t that a massive privacy concern?
Anthropic would theoretically get visibility into the core product logic and security infrastructure for huge chunks of the world. Even with enterprise “no training” promises and zero-retention policies, that’s a lot of trust to place in a single vendor.
Am I overthinking this, or is it actually problematic?

@fenshamc There can be a middle path. “The Book of Mormon is inspiring and supports/confirms the bible but the modern LDS church isn’t for me.”
English
This was my first General Conference since I realised 'Mormons' aren't 'a polygamous version of the Amish.' 😂
Late last year I casually wondered, 'What do the Mormons actually believe?' Months later, I'm reading the Book of Mormon daily and felt compelled to watch the General Conference.
Here's my biggest takeaway: If the people attacking the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints spent just two hours watching one session, I think their views would shift. How can you sit through that spirit, that sincerity, and still see these people as 'lost' or 'evil'? It's mind-boggling.
I'm also really grateful for all the LDS friends on X who, knowingly or not, helped me learn and understand more along the way.
Whatever path this takes, whether I eventually join or say, 'Fascinating, I respect it deeply, but I'll stay with my Dutch Reformed church', I'm profoundly grateful.
The Lord used simple curiosity to change my relationship with Him, how I see the world, and how I face adversity.

I just went through Elon Musk's page.
No word on the Artemis II crew's Moon landing or their beautiful Earth shots.
If this was done by SpaceX, he would have been talking about it nonstop.
The guy is petty.
