The AI evangelists want us all to conveniently forget that they were all telling us we had to buy bored apes or we would be left out of the Economy Of The Future four years ago.

I simply believe that if the government does not have the capability to maintain transparency and due process then it does not get to arrest and imprison people. I feel the same way about public defenders.
And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."

wild to see replies on this like "but what about when I'm in peak season prepping for my combination ultramarathon+free solo event??"
“You’d have to work hard to not get enough protein.”
Column | I found the most complete protein. It’s not meat.
The most “complete” protein is probably one you’re already eating.

How to invent MST from first principles:
1. Start with a content-addressed data store i.e. a k/v store where values are immutable data and keys are hashes of the values.
2. Build a mutable k/v store on top of that.
3. Make it have nice sync properties (CRDT w/ structural {unicity, sharing})

finished Du Bois' biography of John Brown. really interesting. I hadn't known that many of the supporters of the free Kansas cause were motivated primarily by "we just don't want Black people around"... much like Oregon, and around the same time, too
