  • Democrat wins election "comfortably" in big Donald Trump district

    Jump

  • Ah, so maybe people actually prefer that to the Republican platform of "we'll take all your money and give it to billionaires, deny you healthcare and education, kidnap your friends and family and, if you complain, shoot you in the street."

  • The silent death of Good Code

    Jump

  • It was the first time in weeks, maybe months, that I’d felt something that used to be common in my day-to-day: excitement about the lines of code in front of me. I used to write (approximations of) Good Code most days. Somewhere along the way, everything changed. Nowadays I don’t even write the first version of most of the code I commit. I’m definitely far more productive with an agent at my side. They’re not at all horrible at this coding stuff, just not truly great at it. At the end of the day, the code they spit out is… acceptable. It gets the job done, it passes my litmus tests, but it certainly isn’t Good Code.

    You use an agent to write code, the code is not very good, and it makes you miserable. You claim to have written good code every day in the past and to have been happier that way. So why do you still use the agent? Just write the code. Why complain in a blog post? Just do it the way you prefer that also gives better results.

    That staffer's name? David Dennison.

  • I have spent almost my whole life outside the USA myself, and though I saw these things in American movies etc., I wasn't really aware of how little Americans know about what's going on in the world, and how tilted all the information they consume is, in school and in the general culture, until I spent some time living in the USA. You make a good point though, and I wasn't the most perceptive.

  • Americans are subjected to extreme levels of propaganda from childhood onward, and the propaganda is just subtle enough that many don't see it for what it is. I think it's hard for outsiders to appreciate this, but if you dig into American news sources it's quite shocking how twisted it all is.

  • The documents also allege Trump's involvement in murders of girls he and his friends raped.

  • Trump shares racist video depicting Obamas as apes on Truth Social, then removes it amid bipartisan outrage

    Jump

  • Bit rich coming from an orange shitgibbon.

  • Who entered Epstein's jail tier the night of his death? Newly released video logs appear to contradict official accounts.

    Jump

  • There are two theories beginning to appear everywhere right now: that Epstein worked for Russia and that Epstein is still alive. Both smell very much like deliberate attempts to muddy the waters and confuse people into giving up on the truth. We shouldn't let ourselves be distracted. Epstein is almost certainly dead and probably worked for Mossad, perhaps with some freelance blackmail for others too. And the main issue now is to get the rest of the files released and unredact the names and crimes of the perpetrators whom Trump's DOJ is determined to protect.

  • Trump Reportedly Demanded His Name on Penn Station in Exchange for Unfreezing Tunnel Project Funds

    Jump

  • Maybe rename it to Fuck Trump the Pedo Station for a bit of malicious compliance?

  • DHS Is Hunting Down Trump Critics. The ‘Free Speech’ Warriors Are Mighty Quiet.

    Jump

  • And they always could be racist and sexist out loud. People just told them they didn't like it. So it's about violently silencing any criticism that might hurt their bigoted snowflake feelings. The whole "free speech" and "small government" and "anti-cancel culture" bit was just the lies fascists use while they prepare the machinery of violence.

  • Epstein files leak personal passwords including #1Island and ghislaine

    Jump

  • Seems like the only thing they redacted very diligently was the names of the perpetrators.

  • Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments

    Jump

  • I wonder if they gave considered crowdsourcing this, having many people type in small chunks of the data by hand, doing their own character recognition? Get enough people in and enough overlap and the process would have some built-in error correction.

  • Democrats’ 10 demands to ‘rein in’ ICE – the full list of proposed reforms

    Jump

  • Schumer will already be making the calls to line up those "moderates" so he can pretend he tried.

  • Amazon misses 4Q profit estimates despite better-than expected growth in cloud computing business

    Jump

  • Amazon abuses employees, destroys the environment, attacks unions, kills local businesses, sells fake crap, spies on us, supports a violent fascist US regime that threatens to invade my country, and is causally responsible for that godawful stunt where Katy Perry spent 2 minutes in space then made us all stupider with the dumbest interview in the history of dumb interviews. Any one of these is a great reason not to shop with them.

  • Mike Johnson Spars With Pope Leo XIV Over Christian Treatment of Immigrants

    Jump

  • The theology of "burn it all down so God can destroy the bad ones and we good ones can get our reward from God" is childish, selfish and lazy. No wonder it's so popular compared to doing the kind of hard work Jesus did.

  • Australia said to grant US access to Australians’ biometric data

    Jump

  • I believe Canada is also introducing legislation to increase the amount of data on its citizens that it shares with the USA. In the current climate these moves seem crazy. But I guess only fascists and billionaires (and billionaire fascists) get to decide what happens.

  • Pentagon warns Scouts: Ban girls or we will pull your funding

    Jump

  • Fascists don't make a case. They just use force. In their view, argument and reason are for the weak, and the weak should not live.
