I have had it with this. There was a NOTAM that the GPS jamming activities were taking place in the area. Pilots must check NOTAMs prior to departure, especially commercial pilots. It is part of the damn job. If you need GPS to fly then reconsider your career choices.

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

This is unbelievable: I think I might have successfully downloaded H-1B approval *and denial* data from each of the 49,495 U.S. employers that USCIS has records of in this fiscal year, as of June 30th, 2026 (aka Q1-Q3 FY2026) Let me clean up the data and see what we've got.

Gah I find large webinars to be stressful on the body in the worst ways. You're presenting sitting down, typically, not standing at a lectern, you get none of the signals from the audience that they're interested/present, it's all just one big number of "there are xxx people on this call"

b) consumers do not choose how goods are distributed, they only choose between distribution channels. This is also crucially different c) consumers do not choose their incomes or overall income distribution. also crucial.

the thing about this absolutely blatant market manipulation is that it’s going to work until it stops working, and when it stops, a whole lot of shit is going to go very sideways very fast

Cunningham was a superstar in high school and cannot deal with the fact that she’s an incredibly middling role player who comes off the bench in the WNBA and simply isn’t a relevant player. The only way she can get any attention is by vocally hating trans people.

She also keeps making the point that these treaties weren’t entered into out of some grandiloquent desire to protect the Native American people, but rather to make peace so the tribes would stop kicking the shit out of the Americans on the regular

I've been busy putting Claude Fable to work saving the environment from wasted cycles, rather than generating excess cycles, namely by adding arm64 NEON support to everything that benefits from it in the Go standard libraries and runtime and popular libraries that no one had gotten around to.

I first got 1000+ pages of court documents from Miller & Moreno's custody case. Anybody can request these from Cuyahoga County. I reviewed those by myself, one by one—no AI involved!—and the filings pointed to police reports. I then sought those out separately and spent days combing through them.

i think we should stop caring who subscribes to the nyt lol. pick your battles, knock it off.

It really really really bugs me how many people simply do not understand what it means when the government tries to convict you even IF THEY FAIL TO DO IT. Do you know how many thousands of dollars in legal fees it costs? You will most likely lose your job. You might lose your home.
