Every time I hear Gavin Newsom make a sweeping statement, it's a pretty safe bet that the opposite is closer to the truth. I'm not saying he's intentionally lying to people, but I am saying lacks a fundamental understanding of reality.

Look, I love journalism. It's a great discipline. But I just read that their chronic misspellings of "lead" as "lede" is intentional to avoid confusion with lead, the metal, and I want to smash every J-School prof who pushed this with a lede pipe. It may be the standard, but it is still horseshit.

Her: "Daddy, I want a bazooka." Me: "No." Her: "Please daddy!" Me: "Uhh... You can have one... when the revolution starts, I guess." Her: "When is that?" Me: "Not now and not tomorrow. Go to bed already it is 10:26 pm."

i blew my workplace claude budget on 1 app prototype, and after switching to qwen & in-house hosting, ive found all of the stuff it skipped 💀 anyone paying for this is fooling themselves on the ROI; there's no way they have the structure in place to account for & handle the probablistic bullshit
