California has free breakfast and lunch for all public and charter school kids. Before covid and early on districts started doing it but now it is state wide.
I’ve seen the jerboa dev community grow tremendously and the app improve by leaps and bounds too! Nowadays it basically exceeds my old RIF experience in every way except for the traffic level on lemmy vs reddit.
If Ryan Cohen took a salary in that leauge the bear thesis would still be alive and the turnaround of GameStop might never happen (or be significantly delayed). My executive chairman has other plans 🙌

By all accounts, TypeScript has been a big success for Microsoft. I've seen loads of people sparkle with joy from dousing JavaScript with explicit types that can be checked by a compiler. But I've never been a fan. Not after giving it five minutes, not after giving it five years. So it's with great pleasure that I can announce...
There’s likely a lot of reasons one wouldn’t want to work with DHH. It’s unfortunate because he is clearly really brilliant but seemingly fails to realize that a huge amount of software engineering involves working together with other people, many of whom aren’t that brilliant.

Going out on a limb here to guess that “Hank” has never been to India?
There’s a whole lot of crazy bad but also an incredible amount of absurdly beautiful. I think unfortunately the worldview in India accepts both equally and generally believes, in the words of Bruce Hornsby or Tupac, that’s just the way it is.
I don’t disagree at all. And if your worldview allows you to paint 1.4B people with the same brush based on the news you’ve read, also quite horribly bad (and pretty fucking racist) IMO.
I’m a guy approaching 60, so I’ll start by saying my perception may be wrong. That could be because the protest songs from the late 60’s and early 70’s weren’t the songs I heard live on the radio but because they were the successful ones that got replayed. More likely, it’s because music is much more fractured than...
NWA was 87-91, over 30 years ago at this point. The gap between I feel like I’m fixing to die by Country Joe and Fuck the Police by NWA is smaller than the gap between Fuck the Police and today
1985, TNG was definitely my introduction, really even Voyager and then got into TNG from there. I haven’t seen more than a couple TOS episodes but have seen everything else (except the animated ones, and many of the old movies barely watched once)
I’ve done so many years worth of manager training in California. One of the big things they drill into your head is you should always tell anybody to report things to HR or their manager, never “well did you first try to hash it out with the person harassing you?”
I was just happy to realize this afternoon that this is a different Linus than Linus Torvalds. I was very confused this morning how out of the loop I was to not realize The Linus had become a youtuber. Now this makes more sense (or at least I no longer care at all)
Strange New Worlds has been my favorite Trek since Next Generation, and if the quality continues, could easily be my favorite Trek ever. But with the e.p. wishing for more episodes per season, there’s a danger of diluting the show by adding weak episodes that would have never made it in a 10 episode season....
Did you not read the article? Their whole point is chatgpt isn’t good at this type of writing because open ai intentionally trained it to do very non threatening corporate friendly speech. While code-davinci-002 (which predates gpt3.5/4) is objectively weaker this limitation wasn’t baked into it and it demonstrates LLMs can certainly write jokes and edgy humor.
