The obvious second question is how much of Next.js went into Claude's training corpus and thus might have gotten regurgitated in the process of this "re-"implementation.

Apple is unlikely to do an Mx Ultra laptop; power consumption would be wildly high. The current rumors are M5 Pro and Max next week, and M6 Pro and Max around November.

Pinterest must have trained their AI image detector on posts and images saying "this looks shopped, I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time".

This is thoroughly false. "[T]he right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." The prefatory clause about the militia explains the motivation but does not recognize or protect anything on its own. "The people" have a First Amendment right to peaceably assemble; a Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms; a Fourth Amendment right to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects against unreasonable searches; and retain rights not granted to the federal government or reserved to the states under the Tenth Amendment. "The people" have individual rights, not collective ones.

And a militia is a military force, not armed police. In the 18th Century, the militia was called into service to fight Indian tribes, French forces in the colonies, and various rebellions. Armed police forces would not have filled the need even if they existed at the time (the first modern US police department was created in 1838, and the next was 1845).

"When gas-fueled cars are outlawed, only outlaws will have gas-powered cars."

Canadian band Rish warned us about this. So did Australian actor Mel Gibson.

"External monitors don't work unless your MacBook has a built-in HDMI port."

That means I can use a Thunderbolt-attached monitor with my MBP that has an HDMI port, right? What, no, it really means "External monitors only work via built-in HDMI port" and "This article was written poorly"? I am shocked, shocked.

Concern over FISA orders in situations like this is way overblown. You should be concerned about orders available in any lawsuit, like OpenAI being ordered to hand over lots of its chat logs in the NYT copyright lawsuit. You should be concerned about sales of access to information, like Facebook and Cambridge Analytica. You should be concerned about compromise of material in a jack by criminals or a nation-state. Unless you are a terrorist or foreign intelligence asset, the risk of those dwarfs the risk that a FISA order will compromise your data.

Yes, they are.

That's for 1 kj/kg/day, yes. Extrapolating that to 85 kj/kg/day is in turn just over 1600 dietary calories per day, which is pretty much right for a seriously sedentary person.

On the other hand, weight change is ultimately driven by calories consumed versus calories burned. Someone with excess fat usually needs to improve both sides of that equation, and short bursts of exercise probably don't move one's basal metabolic rate enough to shift "calories burned" much. That's where the ability to sustain exercise comes in handy.

I see no way where drivers could yield properly, nor can a single police officer direct traffic; and how could even multiple officers do it?

The default without power is to treat any intersection as an all-way stop, which is safe and probably not too inefficient given the design. Probably a traffic cop would stand on the side that both directions of traffic come in, so they can see the lines of traffic and vice versa?

They do seem to work well as intersections, but they're a real surprise if a driver is not expecting it. That's my core complaint -- my comment about the devil's work is a joke, mostly because the design doesn't SEEM like it would work at first.

Sure, amd using scare quotes doesn't make something a bad idea. It only implies you don't have a real argument.

No, no, Hitler escaped to Argentina, not Australia. Seriously, have you ever driven in Australia? They are absolutely mad for roundabouts. But at least they are also scrupulous about signaling for them.

Diverging diamond interchanges and their bastard offspring, though? I think those are the devil's own work.

I have a wonderful business opportunity to offer you: NotARugPull dot something. Please let me know your budget and I will let you know what "something" will be.

That might be remotely believable if it wasn't posted as AC.

As AC, it looks like an advertisement or troll. Or ... AI slop.

The former, which is why TFS talks about space vehicles and "risky close approaches", rather than ... whatever language might be appropriate for snooping on transmissions.
