I'm a bit surprised at how little Middle East has tried to pull this lever. Shouldn't they have a lot of say in Trump policy, with just a "we'll pull out of these commitments to your personal circle."

There will only be consequences for the losing side, if even then. See WW2. Options 1/2 are valid, option 3 should be "cope being evil."

> Grok is integrated into Twitter is a pretty good thing for discussions, as it is certainly a more objective and rational voice than most human participants

Hard agree.

Nobody in the know is paying for Claude anymore, it's so overpriced. It's just the enterprise users.

Is that 'Why "Shota"' readme section tongue-in-cheek? Too devilish

Clean change, all things considered. But, like, what? What's to say you won't run into a billion problems here, too?

Is the source for the blog, open? What do they use to make the interactive charts? Vibe coded new stuff, or based on some existing framework?

Statins are, in fact, not blood pressure medications. They are cholesterol-lowering meds.

Brussels = location of EU headquarters, and in common lingo Brussels thus means "People running the EU and deciding things on everyone's behalf."

You can stop recommending that flow (nix on guix), it's not good. You'll know if you try it.

Not unusual, not for Anthropic.

I agree with this. The new definition of "open source" has been crafted out of malice. _Anyone_ new to programming runs into this confusion, and that's evidence in itself.

MinIO made their source AGPL, but then cloud providers hosted the service "as is" and make money off it, with MinIO team getting zip. That still complies with AGPL but is not monetarily beneficial to the MinIO team.

At least that's my understanding. They closed source completely, but a source-available license wouldn't have run into this issue.

You can do that right now, on the stock market. Sometimes it's good to put your money where your mouth is, that forces you to correct your world view.

Would love to see something for diff views (e.g. side-by-side/unified). I mostly program through CLI agents, and so seeing the changes it makes is probably the primary thing I use the editor for, these days.
