Social platforms conforming to such an modus operandi are of little utility beyond intellectual prostitution at the behest of invisible pimps.

Frack. If no one knows how to get a hold of Casey Smith (Subtee) outside of Blue social, I have to get right to different method of contacting him that limits my response I can provide & it won't be great for anyone, his co-workers or family. Straight to ruination.

Body autonomy: you either have it or you don't.

"Oh god I wanna be your dog You know I’m perfect for the job But you do not seem to be hiring Oh, shit You got me burning all my ships Yeah with a smile and a kiss You’re not a tease You fucking siren"

Some maps contain neat information like WiFi hot spot information, which, are publicly accessible. I guess depending if starbucks is hard to find or simply getting information about public wifi is interesting, some areas are more helpful than others.

Which point gets the hot/red-lead from a voltmeter in this diagram of a light bulb? Bottom contact?

Flex!

@BayesianNuance hmmm trying to think about how to balance respect for privacy with a desire to introduce two people i like

@ConLawWarrior @maddog301 Yet, the DEA exceeds Elon's authority by deconstruring non-delegation's 'delegation' ignoring both unambiguous & explicit statue; stating the US AG's duty is to distribute precursor chemicals sufficient for production of pharmaceuticals Docs prescribe… They construed a cudgel.

@maddog301 I mean, Elon’s sure being tasked and operating like a public officer of the USG, but he’s neither been appointed nor confirmed. The Constitution doesn’t contemplate delegating that kind of authority to “very special” employees, or whatever they’re calling him.

If the president issues an illegal order through an unappointed officer to eliminate an unconstitutional agency, how does that shake out? What exactly is the order of operations for constitutional avoidance, knee-jerk deference, inter-branch comity, and standingripenessmootness?

@rowantrollope @karpathy @ai_bites 'Safety First' LLMs will make D'Alembert's writings about Music Theory resemble musings of a Beethoven in contrast to its faithful perspective of a manuscript's author at the turn of the century ― the 18th century.

@karpathy @ai_bites What’s your source for the books? I want this but can’t get most books in a form to use effectively

There's a new kind of coding I call "vibe coding", where you fully give in to the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that the code even exists. It's possible because the LLMs (e.g. Cursor Composer w Sonnet) are getting too good. Also I just talk to Composer with SuperWhisper so I barely even touch the keyboard. I ask for the dumbest things like "decrease the padding on the sidebar by half" because I'm too lazy to find it. I "Accept All" always, I don't read the diffs anymore. When I get error messages I just copy paste them in with no comment, usually that fixes it. The code grows beyond my usual comprehension, I'd have to really read through it for a while. Sometimes the LLMs can't fix a bug so I just work around it or ask for random changes until it goes away. It's not too bad for throwaway weekend projects, but still quite amusing. I'm building a project or webapp, but it's not really coding - I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy paste stuff, and it mostly works.

Inspiration: No worrying or complaining about tides.

I'm getting strong feelings about crypt's library, but, they're too soon to share. This article I've yet to finish. But, useful opining about U2F as an idea; development from passwords to passkeys; tokens. How well it reflects current state of auth 🤷 imperialviolet.org/2023/07/23/u2f…

How long does it take for NIST or the vendor to verify a vulnerability? Good ol' Java. nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CV…

Awwhh f[u]ck.

@johnmccumber @TheBoudicca And the engineer trying to prove their worth by highlighting the one of five plus equations to derive power & argue semantics about their circuit. Hopefully no one talked about measuring a damn thing because what's the point when you have a ton of straw lying around.

@TheBoudicca Not code at all. One guest is an electrical engineer and co-leader of the local lightning study group (yes, we have one). The other a retired union electrician from NYC. They had very strong and disparate opinions on lightning strikes here.

@johnmccumber @TheBoudicca Surely bickering included Kirchhoff's circuit laws & earth potential rise & environment changes? If only to say it does/n't apply &‖ ideal. "…currents are injected into the earth, the area around the point…may rise to a high potential with respect to points distant from it…"

@ghostinthecable Perhaps the cable never got through? *Something something*,"⚓️". I'm shocked people lobbying on behalf of foreign interests never had to register in the UK before. I always assumed we copied that bureaucratic maneuver from the UK, or at least, the custom was standard across 5👀s.

@TommyTenacious Meanwhile, we get this absolute plonker... inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

Why would you want a government that doesn't listen to the elected leader? 👀
