Here's Simon Willison's write up of how he uses AI. He's been using it for a couple of years and distilled his methods in this article. He also discussed when and how he vibe codes.
Requiem for a Dying Planet was the sound scape for Werner Herzog's Wild Blue Yonder. A brilliant film backed by this album, I feel that the album stands on its own.
This recording brings together three very disparate elements into a synergistic whole. They are Ernst Reijseger’s cello, the choral singing of the Sardinian group Tenore e Cuncordu de Orosei and the soaring vocals of Senegalese singer Mola Sylla. Each is a singular expression of music from widely differing traditions; together, they’re indescribable.
Requiem For a Dying Planet is not the anticipated death song for the earth, this music is dedicated to this wonderful planet and the beauty of living which could be heavenly if religions would not exist.”
He didn't call for the death of Israel.
Harris failed not because of her policies, but because she never was willing to sincerely differentiate herself from a Democratic party who continued to put themselves and their donors ahead of the average citizen.
Trump blew up the Republican party and it was a breathe of fresh air for a Washington full of their own self interest.

They want to win. They just don't want to have to change to do so.
If you think that's all of them then this is just silly. Or worse, lazy. Do politics.
It amazes me that these articles keep appearing and the Democrats are unable to leverage this into votes. Writing these people as stupid is useless. We still have to win elections with a large population of stupid people.
I know a northerner who is virulently an anti-monarchist. His whole family is.
I'd like to try Linux with minimal commitment and no setup. Give it real test drive with some of my most important tools.
If and when I decide to make the switch, I want to have access to my normal windows machine. I'd keep it around if I need it. But prefer if it went away slowly. I want to work with and communicate with windows users with neither of us having to jump through weird hoops.
I want my printer to work.
Problems will come up, but I don't want it to dominate my time.
I'm sure most of you will say not to worry, but until I've logged some real hours, I will.
