This is how to keep simpletons out of your code base. Every numeric constant is defined in terms of a different lang quiz. Works well in JS as well of course.

  const DEFAULT_SELECTION = true + true
  const BASE_PRICE = 4 * parseInt(0.0000001)
  const BILLING_DAY_OF_MONTH = a++ + ++a

It's that parenting is exhausting.

I could do physical labor for hours. Code straight for hours.

But when I have to look after the 2 kids for 3 hours solo I'm totally exhausted. And I don't mean sit them in front of a TV - but actually try and feed them, change diapers, clean up after their messes, keep them entertained...

Weekends are suddenly way more exhausting than weekdays.

And then that compounds over weeks.

It's totally exhausting. The modern model is totally unsustainable/not scalable, but I'm not sure what the alternative should be.

If we're gonna give this actual attention, we should be focusing on the fact that they should be banned from any form of insider trading or major conflict of interest!

Doing something right.

Maybe mass layoffs like Oracle/Meta/Amazon are doing isn't actually a good way to grow a company after all!

They dropped Ruby on Rails.

Ruby on rails got a bad rap IMO.

It was maybe the epitome of the get shit done internet era, and despite AI's proported productivity gains, I actually don't think we've got anywhere close to the velocity, stability, and simplicity of the peak Rails era just coming out of those PHP days. And teams were actually way smaller than they are now even after all these AI cuts!

If you think it's possible to convince everyone to vote red then it's certainly possible to do the same for blue given how much lower the threshold is!

This is absolutely possible and realistic.

Imagine a scenario where public polls were taken and it showed 95% support for blue? Would you still be out here calling 95% of people martyrs? Blue is an absolutely winnable propoganda game!

A baby or toddler is way less likely to randomly shoot themselves in the head of given a gun than they are to do nothing or shoot something else.

The 2 buttons made it 50/50.

The odds of random death are what is causing people to vote blue, and you just massively changed them in your thought experiment...

This is about predicting real people!

People are not perfect rational actors.

Good luck explaining your Nash equilibrium theory to your 6 month old niece and nephew who are good pick blue because it's their favorite color.

You aren't gonna get an all red movement to succeed. There are a small minority who will vote red or blue regardless of the community sentiment - and some of those people will be kids who would probably grow up to be smarter than your game theorizing selves if they are given to opportunity to grow old enough to fully mature.

Full propaganda team blue.

Bro... Game theory laws like Nash equilibrium dont apply if the population is irrational. Which it largely is!

Good luck explaining Nash equilibrium to a baby.

Was there perfect conditions.or something?

Insane you could run 1:59:41 and not win!

Can you force people on red or not?

Seems difficult to guarantee you don't kill a bunch of kids each button press cycle...

Many people aren't old and developed enough to reason it out yet...

If this is repeated I'd certainly be on the team of trying to convince people to go blue... Otherwise the chance of someone randomly pressing red every time before they get to the age of 5 or whatever seems too low to guarantee the long term survival of the species... I guess it depends on how often it happens?

Using LLMs for production systems without a sandbox environment?

Having a bulk volume destroy endpoint without an ENV check?

Somehow blaming Cursor for any of this rather than either of the above?

This but for TVs

This but for robot vacuums

This but for security cameras

This but for baby monitors

This but for washing machines

This but for fridges

Anyone else got any requests?

Seems supported by this as well: https://www.first.org/blog/20260211-vulnerability-forecast-2...

Interesting that it's been higher than forecast since 2023. Personally I'd expect that trend to continue given that LLMs both increase bugs written as well as bugs discovered.

That's literally the problem Georgism uniquely solves. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgism

It seems like its literally you who is pushing things! The gaslighting in this comment is insane!

Assuming you're intending "real" to mean the technical definition of "real" which is "adjusted for inflation", its basically been flat since 2019*, and that's using the government's inflation measures which abuse things like basket substitution and other hacks to hide the actual increases in the true cost of living. If you made better assumptions about inflation, you actually would see that median real income is down dramatically already over the past several decades.

Here is a recent video on some of these measurement biases: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0B4tgG-CGXU&t=1s
