Doing some smaller videos for #StarCitizen lore and remembered Lin Sool, the wealthiest Banu we have ever known about who got his wealth being the best fighter pilot we've ever seen. Basically flying combat missions from the age of 6.

CIG made a Banu that is basically an Ace Combat character.

I always find it funny when he says the quiet part out loud and is surprised when one of his people gets mad and blows up in his face.

I've told @camdi42.bsky.social that if our kids get us a clanker when we get older I am going to give it a gun, make it read Das Capital, and exclusively let it watch videos of Malcom X.

This should be shared with every military officer. When the admin orders you to do war crimes, and you go through with it, they will blame YOU for it. Remember, this admin is going to end and it'll be a VERY easy political win to arrest and prosecute some scape goat from the military afterwards.
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?

LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

This applies to coding, too. My process is to "mess around" for a bit until something clicks, and it's the little details that are the grit in the oyster that becomes the pearl. In contrast, skimming pages of vomited-up/buggy boilerplate are not fertile soil for critical thinking.
Using an LLM for ideation is nonsense. When I'm writing I'm organizing my thoughts -- the mental clarity is the product, not the text. What's the point of hallucinating an approximation of that vestigial document?

The grocery store before Thanksgiving is no joke. It's every man for himself, kids flinging themselves across aisles, abuelitas climbing shelves, "alpha" males squaring off in mating displays in the baking aisle.

We went in with a mission and a list, and by god, we made it out alive.

You can't gloat about the mass deportations and at the same time blame the people you kicked out for the cost of living going up.

It is one of the blessings of being a teacher that ignorance is the default status for my career. So when someone says something like "hey, help me out here" I don't assume they are dumb, just doing the thing every teacher wishes their students would do, ask questions to learn.
