Just watch the first 2 episodes of #plur1bus
Wow! It pays homage to many Sci fi tropes... but does not lean on them. In fact, I would say it turns them on their heads.

A MUST watch.
Not to compare , but it had big blue door meets foundation vibes. Close in characters with huge potential scope
Today's #vim discovery/ useful tip:
Not sure if your yaml files are indentations line up? Need a quick doublechack ?

:set cursorcolumn

You get a vertical highlight that let's you see if your attributes are lined up.

closer reading of that link shows it does not include his full name, but further spelunking suggesting he is a Eli Lilly patient, who had been invited to the White House based on his experience taking a GLP-1 drug

also not exactly a good look for Eli Lilly or the drug 🤣
While that is true for the initial snapshot, subsequent ones are just the changes between the last snapshot and the current one. They tend to be very small and fast to roll back too.
Also, just to be fair and clear, getting the persons name and role wrong is NOT unimportant. Accuracy IS important, for many different reasons e.,g, (historical, contextual).

I also appreciate the take on how correcting errors is more difficult than accepting errors just to be first to publish.
True, but he did just continue to stand there.
Meanwhile, a comparable incident shows Obama actually stepping up and helping.

That is what I think made the story. Trump's disdain for Obama and constantly being unfavorably compared in side by sides really irks him

I too was expecting this to be about the this image.
The internet did NOT get that story wrong, IMO. Particularly when juxtaposed with how Obama dealt with a similar incident

I had to do a fresh install. The laptop I'm using is from something like 2013 and the cpu has v2 cpu extensions and v10 minimum is v3.
The cool thing is Alma says they are supporting v2 for 10(ish?) more years

Have fun!
It's a nice upgrade, imo
Tell me you've lost the plot without saying you've lost the plot
As a person who went through the standard to metric conversion last century, this tickled my funny bone:

Just curious, is this specific to gitHub, or can it also be used with similar's like gitlab or gitea?

Thanks
"apt upgrade --fix-missing" actually worked?!?!?!

Well there's a first time for everything.

Well done Python Software Foundation!

Says no 1..5 mil grant from NSF with terms like "if the PSF was found to have violated that anti-DEI diktat, the NSF reserved the right to claw back any previously disbursed funds,"

Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant with no-DEI strings

Watched the whole thing. wHAT!? Someone wanting to make a city better but aware of the complexities of egos and limitations?? Outrageous!
A very thoughtful piece that covered many of my concerns and thoughts about the benefits and risks of AI.

My last chuckle before sleepy time
It was a good one
I've made similar observations to my students. Everyone gets upset when MS gets a new UI and the habits they develop and no longer have to think about now no longer works.
I attempt to ease that frustration by saying at the end of the day, every OS has to do the same basic things. Think like that.
I'm curious, does that mean most of the programs you run the most on windows also run on a mac?
Welcome to the destruction of American democracy. You saw it with your own eyes. You have no excuse.
