  • Yes, those people were notoriously loyal otherwise…

    Or maybe these same people all tend to come up on close votes and we don’t pay attention to who voted for or against the housing reform bill that just passed because they didn’t matter this time.

    Either name a dem that voted against the housing reform bill or drop “rotating villain” as the always go-to theory.

    It’s a good thing to keep it mind, but it generally isn’t applying in this political environment.



  • Unpopular opinion — The electoral college and Senate can stay as-is. At a glance it might seem weird to give votes to land, but on the other hand you shouldn’t want every state between Utah and the Mississippi to become the country’s public dumping ground.

    Yeah, there are problems, but the other reforms might be enough. Overturning Citizens United, cleansing the Supreme Court of RV bribes and corruption, eliminating gerrymandering, and proportional elections should cover enough that we don’t need to eliminate Nebraska’s votes.










  • It’s great if you could have found the answer on Stack Overflow and applied it to your code. It’s legitimately useful if there are easy (but maybe tedious) ways to accomplish your goal.

    It’s here to stay. It’ll likely replace the concept of ORMs, and it’ll kill the need for a lot of third party tools.

    It’s not going to replace many workers. If it were used responsibly, it’d just make people’s jobs a bit easier and make software generally more polished and complete. Instead it’s going to bury those projects that use it responsibly in AI slop projects.
