Trump was elected.

I was flying home with a snow globe souvenir one day. TSA had to huddle with their team and a calculator to figure out the volume of a sphere on the spot. I don't know if the volume ended up being under the limit or they just gave up.

Pretty much title. I haven't had cable in a decade, and I'm not really a sports person, so I'd really rather not have to sign up for some sports streaming package, but I do kinda like watching Avs games. A friend asked me why I didn't just get an antenna to watch the games, but the broadcast TV page on the Denver Post doesn't look like they actually carry Avs games. Just wondering if I missed something.

It's a constitutional amendment that was ruled on. The Constitution applies the same in all states. If it were just Colorado law I think it would be much harder to appeal the ruling to the US Supreme Court.

A truly poor analogy. LLMs don't remove anything from anywhere. They consume no shared resource.

It's been wild watching people flail about searching for arguments for why LLMs should be stopped. I'm not even saying they shouldn't, just that I haven't seen a solid argument for it.

I'm sure that's not what was in his letter.

If your question is merely about public relations, sure it's a terrible move. But I think there's actually a more meaningful question underlying all this furor; what are the limits of friendship or love? What is one supposed to do when someone close does something horrible? Cast them aside? Pretend you never knew them?

Kutcher must have had some idea of the risk he was taking, but he did it anyway. I find that striking. For some people friendships can be like family. I feel like this is an older sentiment that doesn't find expression often today. Would you find it appalling if Masterson's mother spoke on behalf of his character, or should she likewise keep her distance?

I don't know. It all just seems more complicated and tragic than the typical social media mob can process.

Oh good, a petition.

I mean, it's an mtx-free, drm-free, full feature game. If BG3 isn't worth paying for, I don't know what is.

Conversations with Tyler (conversationswithtyler.com)

First thing I need to do is say how much I love the interviews that Tyler Cowen does. The topics range widely, and yet the questions are always remarkably well-informed, unique, and interesting. Honestly the greatest interviewer I know of. Give it a listen.

Secondly I'm curious if anyone else has an interviewer (who does podcasts?) that they would recommend.

I feel for this guy having to make a living with the meager pay of a barista, but setting the minimum wage to a livable level and pegging it to inflation is a much better solution. Hell, throw in some single-payer, universal healthcare, and take that item off everyone's personal budget while we're at it.

Netanyahu's legislation would give the Knesset the power to overrule their Supreme Court with a simple majority vote. I've not seen anyone make an argument for such extreme measures to redress the US Supreme Court, and certainly not in this article. The most common arguments I've seen are,

  • Impose a Code of Ethics, and possibly to impeach the most obviously compromised justices
  • Add term limits, possibly retroactively
  • Expand the court

These all have risks, but so does taking no action.

Bad bot. That URL just has a /c/ in it. Although connect also seems to be screwing up.

I went on that journey a couple years ago. What I ended up buying is technically considered "digital signage" rather than a TV. Basically zero bloat. You may have to pay a little extra but I don't recall it being that much. Pretty sure I got it here.
