As someone using Claude/Opus 4.6 everyday, Zitron is full of shit. All the stuff he says is a bald faced lie is... stuff I see every day.

But it is not absurd. Facebook doesn't target ads at you, Bob Jones. It takes all of Bob's activities and pushes them into bins based on how they characterize Bob; Male, lives in Iowa, 18-25, etc. a bin (Moves to LA, for example),

It's shitty. Doesn't seem to be illegal though?

If you can't see that in the main, using Shareholder Value as the main driver of corporate behavior is a bad thing, well, sorry. In a society where society provides infrastructure, defense, etc, corporations should have a trio of respo

Anything non-fabric would weigh too much. Many smaller parachutes means many more lines, which would weigh too much. The rocket equation is cruel.

I find I only have bandwidth for 1-2 of the Crooked pods a week. PSA is good, PSW is for when a topic catches my eye. Hysteria is really good. LIOLI is sublime.

Sorry, that's security by delusion if you trust apps more.

It's worse; it's a specific subset of perjury. It's lying under oath by someone in authority, who presumes greater moral weight during testifying. And that testimony is often used to get people to plea bargain when they are i

No, nothing has managed the same combination of exploration, trading, ship building, and combat skill, plus an over arching slow burn story. So good. I loved WC 1-4 (hated Prophecy), but Privateer was the best. I will not speak of Privateer

Laughed out loud. We used "indexes" and "indices" all over a code base, methods/classes and doc. It was a real mess to true up to one.

Just fuck right off. I hope she coffees as much as she wants to, on what she wants to. You're an asshole, on the other hand.

I wanted to look into self hosting because it's the only way, for security reasons, my company could use it.

This really resonated with me. I am passionate, or at least I think so. But all my subprojects are for work. I work at a place where the problems are interesting, and we are encouraged to randomly skunk works things in the background. So I

Moto Z Play. Makes my Note 4 looks silly wrt battery life. Plus, you can shove a $60 battery moto mod on there for more battery. I get 7-8 hours screen on time from the stock battery though. I bought mine outright from best Buy for $449, I

This is sadly too common if you are not tenured, let alone not a Phd already. Universities treat their non revenue teachers as cattle. And there are darn few professors who bring in money.

Good for her. A ton of CEOs have done far worse for their shareholders and done as well with their exit package.

People (especially long time Apple users) really underestimate how nice Windows + Cygwin (or bash, etc) can be, on really powerful laptops, at much nicer price points.

This is true; but to me, the problem is the diminutive RAM/CPU/drive profile. Just not enough horsepower. The touch panel would bug, but I rarely use my laptop mobile. But my 64G Windows gaming laptop kills my 2014 MBP for perf. T
