1. US school funding is based on property taxes. It should be one big bucket per state and doled out based on need not whose land is worth the most. 2. Tech shouldnâ(TM)t be in primary schools. If your kids leave primary school illiterate and unable to do basic maths, no tech can help them overcome it. High school is where some tech belongs. 3. Cellphones should be outright banned for anyone under 16. Theyâ(TM)re causing more harm than anything else.

At last Enshittification hits the last bastion of closed source design.

Given the SSD shortage and cost to upgrade a PS5 to handle GTA VI, I wonder how many people will even be able to play it?

The fed/US Government is going to go bankrupt. Gold is already replacing the USD as the number 1 held reserve asset. Soon the USD will be displaced as the global medium of exchange with gold.

Maybe humans are like cyclones and hurricanes. Spinning differently based on the hemisphere they're in?

Actually no, we verify and test before sending it in for review. I don't have commit privileges on the master tree so I work with the maintainer and implement anything they ask for. The Wayland transition is killing a lot of open source projects because there aren't that many people that know the graphics layer. There are more devs that know X11 than Wayland and a lot of people are aging out and don't want to relearn graphics all over again.

I looked at the GNUstep Wayland backend which is missing tons of features vs X11, then I got Claude to implement the missing features and broke them up by feature into pull requests which are being verified and merged into main. It's a small team and the progress we're making would have taken years if it was done the old way. Not all AI is useless slop but people need to take the review and submission process seriously.

Dude looks great in a suit and can handle a gun well enough. Shoot Em Up was awesome. He can pull of gritty street smart and clean cut.

AI probably shouldn't be used outside of hobbies. I've been using it for a few months now. It's let me do things which I could never do as a mediocre programmer/someone who struggles with advanced Algebra. But, I would never want to / or claim to be a software developer in a job. I've used it to add VR support to some games. Perfectly fine as a fun hobby, but there's no way I could support these programs/codebases as a paid job. I still hit issues where AI just stops working/doesn't understand certain problems and can't fix those problems. Sometimes you have to scrap an entire codebase and start again to get the output right. It's powerful but I wouldn't use this in my job.

Seems a bit weird that they immediately jump to CO2 did it, as opposed to looking at mineral depletion in soil. Wouldn't you expect the mineral content to go down over time as the plants absorb minerals and get harvested over multiple generations?

What did they expect would happen? This is why Channel Partner discounts exist. This is why TAC is offshored so they can hire foreign workers in and lock out the locals. Same thing is happening in Australia. TAC went offshore to Bangalore and China and now we have a desperate "Skills shortage" and are running infinity migration. Corporate HR loves it. They pick up any women they can get their hands on and then trumpet about how diverse they are while the locals get worthless uni degrees and $40,000 debt. In Australia at least you should ditch IT and go pick up a trade. CFMEU tradies are on $180,000/year+ way more than 90% of IT workers.

The death of internet freedom is already here, it's being pushed out rapidly now. Soon you'll need ID to communicate on any platform. Anonymity is being crushed out by governments everywhere. Fuck em.

They do realise that the next level of AI is binary analysis/conversion LLMs. Everything will be open source going forward.

Simply: Tax the absolute shit out of these people. They should not have this level of money, they don't deserve this level of money and so many more people would benefit from that money.

Call Manager 15 SU4 got released this month and it is now supported when hosted on Nutanix. This includes Unity Voicemail and Jabber IM & Presence Servers.
