people trying to say "delta-v always costs the same amount of fuel" and the [admittedly KSP-educated] part of my brain is itching with propellant vs fuel vs power vs impulse equations

maybe the reason there's a new can coffee brand every month on the shelf is because monk fruit will ruin your drink and your day and no one actually wants that in their coffee

the tongva didn't release a statement. someone claiming to represent the tribe (unverified) talked to the daily mail (oof) and made vague statements about land acknowledgements (suspiciously woke-coded performance) instead of actionable policy like federal recognition

hollow-body gibson. es-335 reissue? or something in the family that can handle overdrive without massive feedback spikes (so definitely not a 330). humbuckers stock, no dog ear ghost stains from original p90s
and of course the pickup switch is set to the neck, that's real tone on those old guitars

the amount of people itt who think "autonomy means you never ask for help" is damning but unsurprising
Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”
It Turns Out Waymos Are Being Controlled by Workers in the Philippines
During a Congressional hearing, Waymo's chief safety officer, Mauricio Peña, was grilled over the company's reliance on overseas workers.

okay, but like the "stochastic parrot" metaphor is kind of cute now that i'm writing a system prompt to get qwen3 to generate structured output. please, just say the word, qwen:
me: okay, say SUCCESS when the shell commands are SUCCESSFUL
qwen: { "halt": true, "reasoning": "*GOAL COMPLETE*" }

opsec also just means not publishing the march route or only deciding the common radio freq day-of. or layering organization efforts behind levels of vetting
i'm not sure where people are getting these maximalist views on "opsec" when it's mostly about avoiding bad actors and counter-protestors

“Opsec” as understood on the movement left invariably means “taking efforts to remain anonymous and ensure no one can see what you’re saying and who you are.” But these efforts are illusory and completely corrosive to the goal of public resistance and open organizing.
Hi Will - apologies if you've addressed this in detail previously, but is your criticism of opsec primarily about protesters not wanting to be filmed, the use of certain tools giving them a false sense of security, or something else?
