It should be law for software that if there is a server component which requires hosting, or any such limitation, the company must opensource the code and protocols such that somebody could host it themselves after support is stopped.

Applies to games, hardware, whatever - if it isn’t economically viable to run, let the users.

I have to say it sounds insane. 5 tabs of claude, back and forth from terminal to browser - and no actual workflow detailed. Are we to believe that claude is making changes in parallel to one codebase, and if so - why?

Hey, could I ask which stretch it was?

Look for the reply with "Frog Mobility" in the body, I posted in reply to another comment.

They also don’t support code formatting of inputs. You’d think after 3 years out whatever theyd have resolved that.

They're too focused on hiring ML people and not enough on hiring highly experienced web people.

The painful slowness of long chats (especially in thinking mode for some reason) demonstrates this.

I keep zooming but the profile pictures never get bigger!

Per capita is a pretty useless stat. I'm much more interested in why there are particular cities where being stabbed is much more likely than in my rural village, per capita.

Cities are generally worse because that's where the organized crime is, and a nasty spiral of people carrying weapons because other people are carrying them.

Scotland used to have the worst reputation for stabbing until the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violence_Reduction_Unit incredible success. You won't hear about it in England because it reflects well on the SNP.

And the government defrauding the English of their own homeland while pumping in misinformation by the petabyte while simultaneously calling everything else misinformation isn't hostile activity?

How does one go to the Governor of the bank of England to the PM of Canada? Pretty much overnight?

Well you start as the governor of the Bank of Canada for 5 years, then the governor of the Bank of England for another 7. After that you spend about 5 years in private finance. In parallel you spend that time acting as an economic advisor to multiple governments. Then the day comes where a major party needs a new leader, all the existing senior leadership either doesnt want it or is some manner of "problematic" and anyways, its not like they're going to win. Then whaddaya know, turns out Canadians like the idea of someone whose spent their whole life in macroeconomics at a time when global economics are all kinds of fucked up.

So it wasn't overnight, but it was a case of just the right person at just the right time.

Be the leader of the liberal party and not be Trudeau

5 years is overnight?

I recall seeing these ads, I thought the whole thing was fake to be honest - which it really felt it was due to the obvious staging and scripting.

I thought they were AI due to the heavy use of filters / AI enhancement.

"I think drugs are harmful, but I get the sense there's a political motive behind this."

Social medial is a drug, it has serious effects on the brain function and mental health of children and adolescents. On top of this social media allows predators to freely interact with children.

If people are going to do drugs, which they probably will, they should be able to balance the pro's and cons.
