@acostaghj @CowboyGospeler 1. Not my site - I have nothing to do with Wikipedia other than occasional user ("trust, but verify").
2. Anyone who considers users submissions to be impartial is naive.

@adaptivefilter @CowboyGospeler even if the moderators were to actually be impartial (which I doubt considering this has been going on for 10+ years) when pretty much every editor on your site is heavily left winged then your site consisting almost entirely of user submissions should not be considered impartial

After folks laughed at AOC for not knowing vaquero history, I knew Wikipedia would alter their meaning to fit hers, so I took a screenshot, and they finally did rewrite it. Wiki removed vaquero from 'The origins of the vaquero tradition come from Spain...'

AOC making fun of Rubio: "My favorite part is she he said cowboys are rooted in Spain. Uhhh, speak to Mexicans & African slaves!" FACT CHECK: Cowboys trace their roots to Spanish cattle herders. Spain brought the tradition to Mexico, where it evolved into the vaquero system, later moving north into Texas and the American West which later became the American cowboy.

@adaptivefilter @CowboyGospeler @grok You do realize this doesn't really address anything right? Why did you even bring up the business model without any sort of explanation? I mean Grok even stated it IS vulnerable drive-by changes that mods will just drag their feet on if it agrees with their politics.

@adaptivefilter @CowboyGospeler Doesn't really help Wikipedia's case. If Wikipedia is so vulnerable to such pointless edit wars, it only harms their reputation.

I'm writing a Dave's Garage episode on why new computers are slower than old ones (spoiler alert: it's the software).
After enjoying my obligatory photo of counting 6502 cycles like it was the olden days, let me know what you think is the biggest factor in why current code is so much slower than old code.
Here are my basic premises so far:
- We lost the hardware constraints that kept us honest
- No enforced CPU/RAM budgets, no daily benchmarks
- Abstractions without accounting for their costs
- Incentives shifted towards feature release speed
- Lowered perf standards, where "it works" is enough
- Dependency explosions in code
- AI is also a multiplier of mediocrity
What am I missing?

Governor Pritzker's spokesperson gives a statement on the murder of Loyola Freshman Sheridan Gorman who was allegedly killed by a criminal illegal alien from Venezuela, Jose Medina.
“Our thoughts are with the family, friends, and Loyola University community grieving the senseless murder of Sheridan Gorman. Violent crime has no place in our streets, and we expect the alleged perpetrator to be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. The Trump Administration needs to stop politicizing heinous tragedies and instead focus on real solutions, like reinstating federal funds to prevent violence that support our public safety efforts."

@C_3C_3 Reality:
Trump took docs, denied having them, refused to return them, returned some and claimed he had no more, hid remaining docs so his lawyer would validate the lie (a crime). So the govt knocked on the door and served a search warrant as his lawyer had warned they might do.

Dude, you know that I know that Pete Hegseth didn't eat $6 million worth of lobster. It's called humorous hyperbole - just like when I said, in that same answer, that Hegseth is "beautiful." For the record (and I can't believe I have to point this out for the literalists) I don't actually believe Sec. Hegseth ate $6 million of lobster, nor do I actually think he's "beautiful." Sheesh.
