@holdonbot.bsky.social who's going to win the premiership?
kind of amazing that everything trump does can be understood through the lens of narcissism and it's related needs (e.g., self aggrandizement, revenge, domination, grievance validation). i don't think any character has been so one-dimensional, not even wile e coyote or scrooge mcduck
So many recruits in the off-season that I totally missed we snagged Curnow and McDonald
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering
The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory
Hideous AI-generated image of a keyboard attached to a pen, saying B(i)G REWRITE, supposedly the size of an office tower
Yowza! Welcome to Compilation City. Here's Copilot celebrating your achievement with a lousy PNG that I gave up on after half a dozen iterations. It lost the 'I' in 'BIG' in the third draft and could never be convinced to return it.
The number of people who hear this positively is surely tiny now.
"Billionaires are getting richer at an unprecedented rate! We've tilted taxes to extract more shareholder value from capital than a labourer ever dreamed of!"
What benefits could Python have over R, when you're already an R expert? It's like you have mastered your beautiful coffee machine, but now hired a clumsy barista and his machine with an extra milk spout, to replicate the taste. And you only wanted a short black, really
Presuming you mean 189 minutes across 15 cores = about 13 mins elapsed, this still makes me sweat. What percentage is spent generating individual matches (thinking 90%+) and could you delegate that logic to compiled code like C?
Cartoon. Person says to other person βWe invented a robot that answers questions.β, adding, βwe just have to feed it 10 baby giraffes a dayβ.

Norway, population 5.6 million, has won as many Winter Olympics gold medals in four days as Australia has in 90 years of competing. Our 2026 squad (54) is only 32% smaller than theirs (80)
On this very day I landed the Japanese 'r' and cannot stop saying onigiri with the sides of my tongue vibrating

Trump vs new Hate Speech law, if he said this in Australia:
β’ Influential leader of like-minded armed group

β’ Calls for them and their descendants to be forcibly rounded up and expelled
It is fond of gaslighting. For me, it revised its own code and deleted a class. When I pointed this out, it insisted it was still there in the new version. I had to reconstruct it from the earlier chat
A whole bunch of artists and cultural workers have lost work because of the implosion of Adelaide Writers week β writers, producers, stage crew, front of house. None of this was their fault. Something for the Labor premier to think about
