Saving this point in the May 4th Dan Lyke / comment 0

Saving this point in the May 4th Petaluma City Council meeting so that when my city council member comes up for re-election I can gather all of my neighbors and have them watch this exchange and replace this guy with someone competent.

Trying to help and elderly friend with Dan Lyke / comment 2

Trying to help and elderly friend with his iPhone, and holy shit Apple's standards have dropped. Apple apps/screens that pop the keyboard over the password and won't let me paste, inconsistent placement of "next" buttons and permissions stuff.

What happened to this company?

Roberts no longer gives a shit Dan Lyke / comment 0

We've gotten to the point where the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court no longer gives a shit that people know he's lying. Chief Justice John Roberts says Supreme Court is not political

His remarks to a conference of judges and lawyers from the 3rd U.S. Circuit in Pennsylvania came at a time of <span class="LinkEnhancement">low public confidence</span> in the court, and about a week after the court handed down a decision that hollowed out the Voting Rights Act.

Yes, automated browsing sucks Dan Lyke / comment 0

The Register: Using AI to click around on a website burns 45x as many tokens as just using APIs. Which is completely unsurprising, and clicking around is also less deterministic, and what the fuck are we doing in a world where we're loosing random things on web sites rather than having computers communicate in deterministic defined ways with computers?
