Copilot basic is good for boilerplate and data models and that's about it.

It's glorified auto-complete that can sometimes make decent markdown formatting from plain english

It would be if it wasn't just boomer retirement town now. Beautiful area, but average age here is like 53 or something.

Lots of cool people though, we have a commie town councilwoman who got elected last year. The young folks all know each other and hang out all the time. Also surprising concentration of both young and old LGBT couples here. We have a bunch of older lesbians that ride up and down main street at the end of every pride month in their big trucks waving pride flags and shouting down bigots lol.

PRs should always be atomically testable and in the absence of CI/CD workflows, the submitter should include test results that a reviewer should verify and new tests for their added functionality.

I love using stuff like pytest for testing, but too often it gets out of sync too and it makes reviewers complacent. Including new tests makes it easier to review as you've defined behavior not just through implementation, but also the testing code.

Andor was the only good Star Wars

I'm trying to figure out exactly what this does, seems like it's just some ABCs and a general framework for writing prompt loops with some logging glue?

All the code is placeholder in the actual agent modules.

The nationalist perspective vs the internationalist perspective.

Oh Jesus. At least write some comments or something. The silent merge is always terrible because it slips in and introduces bugs that sometimes don't show up for months.

In the end it was alright, turns out the city still has asbestos and wood pipes under the street and the calculations were for concrete and steel.

So that incident got them to finally replace them.

Another incident a street over and only a month or so later took out the landlines of every AT&T customer for the whole region. A small Fiber to the Home ISP was installing underground cable and hit the splice room with their boring machine. No one told them that the utilities under our town are all run through a large tunnel network and not 3" conduit. Which to be fair, doesn't make sense because the "town" is a single street and has a population of like 6000, but there is indeed and underground tunnel network that was used during prohibition.

So some poor sap had to sit in a hole in the road for 5 days manually re soldering phone lines.

Yeah, this is someone showing that even a random person on the Internet was able to update the master prompt in a way that made it promote the white genocide conspiracy theory.

If that's possible, it's definitely very believable that Elon was able to just push a commit to main at 3AM. Looks like almost no actual review is going on and they're just merging anything with no conflicts.

This happened in my town where the put load dispersing plates down while installing prefab concrete walls for a parking garage. The road surface was undamaged, but the weight crushed the storm and water pipes under the road that later caused the road to collapse lol

When even the "optimistic" wages are leaving a working family with 2 parents at under $20,000/year in disposable income (literally anything that isn't just not being homeless and having 1-2 meals/day), you're fucked.

These are are also the people expected to maintain local service economies (even though most of them also work in those service economies), support subscription services, and be the primary consumer base for global production.

What's wild is that even that bloated average isn't living wage in most states.

Even $68k/yr is only about $1200/mo after rent and taxes. Groceries are another $500/mo for a decent diet, so you're left with $700 for everything else.

There's a reason credit/debt is so engrained in the fabric of this shithole country.

30 minutes = 1800 seconds

There are 8.2 Billion people

That means there are about 4.5 million farts per second across the globe. And that's just for humans.

This is the region that produces 100% of the quartz silica used in all electronics.

The region is now gone. There is no immediate way in or out and the primary rail line for export has been evaporated. Not only that, but the workforce and community that worked the mines is underwater.

 

I just now got service back. The whole region has been totally wrecked by this storm. Every 500 year flood line was surpassed by a large margin.

There's currently no way on or out for a lot of people right now

Edit: Live updates here this is being broadcast on FM to the whole region. The only way a lot of people can get info
