  • Texas Democrats head to Illinois to deny Republicans a quorum on redistricting

  • The fact that Illinois is helping them makes it less likely the Texas rangers will kidnap them and render them back to Texas.

  • Not if I’m an underpaid entry level “marketing” employee. Getting each item is a separate purchase order, and your boss will be on your ass to use the digital assets his boss paid for. Shit, the person who composed this image may not have a camera other than the one on their phone and the webcam on their laptop.

  • If you don’t care about making it look right it’s way cheaper to buy the component images and piece them together than it is to coordinate a photo shoot with a model who is willing to get in a bath and the crew who would be needed (not a lot, but probably a lighting tech and a makeup person at least, if one of them was also willing and able to do things like keep the bubbles looking right.)

  • AWS deleted my 10-year account and all data without warning

  • A fair point. Kind of like an arsonist could make my next move really easy.

  • If you pick someone you know will be in a specific place and time, you can make their cause of death “spontaneous fission explosion” and get an AoE on a lot of other people.

  • I think you’re missing something.

    If someone has (say) stomach cancer, and you make them live another decade rather than the six months they have, that’s a decade of cancer eating them from inside, of painful, expensive treatments to keep it at bay enough that they can function, a decade of misery. No one in their right mind would accept such a “gift.”

  • More reason that other countries developing smaller, regional cloud providers is a good thing. Part of the reason AWS thinks they can get away with this is that there are 2-3 other providers they compete with, and moving is onerous. If there were 200+ cloud providers, there would almost certainly be a standard set of tools and much better customer service.

  • Big tech has spent $155 billion on AI this year. It’s about to spend hundreds of billions more

    Jump

  • Ironically, Apple has some of the best odds of coming out of this reasonably healthy. “Apple Intelligence” follows the trend of most Apple services products, in that it is really intended to lock people into their ecosystem and keep buying iPhones. I’m just waiting for someone in the big 7 or whatever they’re called to publicly bow out of AI. I suspect the first one to do it might benefit a lot.

  • What are songs that act like a prequel or a sequel to their more popular songs?

    Jump

  • Not sure if this counts because it’s on the same album but on The Mountain Goats album Transcendental Youth starts with “Amy (AKA Spent Gladiator)” and the second to last track is “Spent Gladiator 2.”

    Also, their album Jenny From Thebes is a sequel to their album All Hail West Texas.

    Also also, there are a number of songs early in the discography that are about the same couple, culminating in the album Tallahassee.

  • Seems to satisfy the ask.

    I mean, I knew medical research was misogynistic but this is still somehow shocking.

  • This post is directly under a post about the breach in my feed.

  • America’s famed ‘checks-and-balances’ governance system is failing

    Jump

  • Andrew Jackson already did that, but we acted like checks and balances still worked because Jackson defying the supreme court only resulted in the Trail of Tears.

  • VC behind ‘996’ work culture debate says 5-day weeks won't build billion-dollar startups

  • I remember reading about a hotel in Japan that has been open for over a millennium, and IIRC it’s owned by the same family who has owned it for most of that time, and that’s their only business. We need more of that: steady-state businesses that operate but don’t pursue permanent growth.
