What’s Andrew Rousso doing in the image? Seems completely unrelated to the content of the article.

I’m gonna choose to take that as an insult to all Scandinavians

Seems particularly high in levels of snake oil to be honest

I assume most of them will have no citizenship in a second country for them to be accepted in.

A pragmatic solution would be to deport them out to sea.

That must be incredibly scary for the horses.

My very limited experience says that it’s possible but risky and unpleasant. NYC is probably a bit different, as is always the case in the U.S.

Walking works quite well in Sweden however

While I am broadly speaking in favour of free transit, one thing that should be noted in any conversation about it is that it often does not significantly increase ridership by users who were previously not using transit - the increase mainly comes from increased utilization by prior users, and sometimes you can get negative effects such as the newly free transit trips displacing walking.

Hence, other investments into the transit system may be prudent - for example, expanding the system, increasing headways and so on.

We should try to be brave enough to do all of the above, but sometimes you’re forced to choose one or the other.

I guess it might be organized by people with intense humiliation kinks

You might want to get that checked out.

RTOs are most often a “one free layoff”-card that businesses play, so firing someone for criticizing it is very much in line with the underlying intent of the policy.

Complete hands-off no-review no-technical experience vibe coding is obviously snake oil, yeah.

This is a pretty large problem when it comes to learning about LLM-based tooling: lots of noise, very little signal.

So far, there is serious cognitive step needed that LLM just can’t do to get productive. They can output code but they don’t understand what’s going on. They don’t grasp architecture. Large projects don’t fit on their token window.

There’s a remarkably effective solution for this, that helps both humans and models alike - write documentation.

It’s actually kind of funny how the LLM wave has sparked a renaissance of high-quality documentation. Who would have thought?

2 people, about €300 spent in grocery stores monthly, with the caveat that both of us get some level of food at work.

Must be ragebait, right?

I have a bidet as well, but I use a very small amount of paper to dry up - and verify that the bidet has done its job well.

I don’t think I would want to use it without any way of drying up.

Ask the people at the Nürnberg trials how that went for them

The right-wing that is currently in power doesn’t really see it that way, unfortunately.

26. I did a mix of driving with my parents and taking driving classes.

I didn’t hurry up to take it because it’s not mandatory to drive where I’ve lived so far, and where I live now it’s completely optional. These days I drive very rarely, most commonly when visiting family.
