I have a co-worker who is really good at herding agents. I've seen him do work in an afternoon what would take more than two weeks without AI, but some of his other work ends up being so bad the rest of us want to string him up by his thumbs.

Its impossible to tell from just looking before hand what the result will be.

It's also counter intuitive but it can dramatically keep your costs down as well. If costs are based on the time spent then the lower the time the lower the costs.

For version 1/MVP work, you absolutely shouldn’t bother with this. It’s a complete waste of resources when you should be focusing on growth or launching the product. Compared to doing it by hand, it’s slower, clumsier, and just another layer of complexity your team has to deal with.

On the other hand, for long-running, stable systems, it’s awesome! We know exactly who rolled out a change and when. From the commit messages, we know why the change happened—even years later. We also make a point of adding Jira (Hawk Tuah) ticket numbers so we can track the details more easily. And if something goes wrong, it’s simple to roll back to an older version.

This approach is perfect for large, long-term maintenance systems—but poison for a brand-new project.

It was also frustratingly predictable from the moment the US started trying to limit the sales of the chips. America has slowed the speed of Chinese AI development by a tiny number of years, if that, in return for losing total domination of the GPU market.

But the medical community was acting with the best knowledge they had at the time as imperfect as it was. Tell me how did taking the vaccine harm any child? It wasn't painful. Immediate side effects were minimal to non-existent. Myocarditis and Carditis incidence was something like 65/million. Even then most of those recovered without any treatment. Median hospital stay for those that needed it was 2 nights and most recovered without permanent issues.

I think the final death toll from the vaccine was estimated at around 1/million. Meanwhile at the height of the delta strain the death toll for anyone infected was well over 1/100 ( more than 10% for the over 60s).

The fallout doesn't make rational sense.

I.e they check from multiple network locations in case an attacker has messed with network routing in some way. This is reasonable and imposes no extra load on the domain needing the certificate all the extra work falls on the CA, and if Letsencrypt can get this right there is no major reason why "Joe's garage certs" can't do the same thing.

This is outrage porn.

The muscular changes that happen during puberty are permanent. No amount of testosterone suppression will change that. In how many sports do any trans-women end up on the podium vs their numbers in that sport?

The boundaries are really not that fuzzy at all.

I've got a 13 year old daughter with DS. We don't have 6 hours of screaming but she has definitely thrown her share of hissy fits. My personal favorite was driving into my son's snooty private boy's school while she was sitting in the back without a shirt on (She was 12 at the time).

Or the time she decided to sit down in the middle of a busy street while we were trying to cross it and we ended up dragging her across the road skinning her feet and almost getting hit by a truck.

Usually she is happy and has tons of personality but it really does make things harder at times.

I should probably add my that my usual comment when anyone asks is that having a kid with DS sucks but not as badly as a lot of other disabilities.

Obviously HN's moderation and flagging system is a long way from perfect, but in general it does work.

Feel squeamish about bodily fluids? Don't worry the kids will cure you. Nothing like trying to do a Matrix style bullet time dodge when you are changing a nappy and the cold air makes your son let loose with a stream of pee.

And then they look at you and giggle and the world is perfect. Wouldn't change it for the word, but enjoy life first then have the kids. Its not worse just very very different and you can't go back.

Can someone explain what Russia gets out of this? I would have thought if anything it would be more likely to harden attitudes towards them.

On the other hand my employer and I imagine most other registries are not planning to shut off whois. Actual people in the real world still use it.

What ICANN aren't admitting is that while there was no formal RFC standard to the output of WHOIS ICANN themselves had mandated the output format of the WHOIS output. To go live with your shiny new gTLD you had to pass a test of your whois server output. It was strict enough that we had to remove an extra blank line is the disclaimer at the end of the output.

Every whois server I ever checked while writing my org's version supported UTF8.

The data has to be publicly available so authentication and encryption doesn't matter. In any case there is currently nothing requiring RDAP servers to authenticate anything.

The amount of search ability I've seen in most rdap servers so far is pretty limited.

The RDAP output is json but its complicated and there are so many options that realistically everyone is developing to pass the icann profile so no different to whois, and in the end we still live in a post GDRP world so all the useful data is redacted so none of this matters anyway.
