No word though on how many of these are bots or agents

Your logic missed the part where Japan attacked the US and forced it into this war that costed many American lives. Your logic also missed the part where nobody attacked Russia.

Do you have a link about the 36 million developers who joined Github in 2025? I think a lot of these "developers" are AI agents / bots, but I would like to know better. Thanks!

Tell me you never borrowed movies from a library without telling me you never borrowed movies from a library.

I did the physical media & Jellyfin install earlier this year. It was not that hard. From the moment I searched “create bootable Linux usb drive” to streaming my first movie on the flat screen TV from a Jellyfin server running on an Ubuntu box took a whole 90 minutes.

The hardest part was figuring out the folder where to save the media on the Ubuntu and give Jeyyfin read permissions on that folder via some Linux commands. It was not that hard because Jellyfin tips and tricks are all over the internet (Reddit for example.)

I always wanted a law where, in case Congress declares war, each senator and congressman/woman that voted for war has to send their kids and grandkids (if they are between 18 and 35 years of age) to the front line.

There would be no war pretty soon.

In the case of US protesting the increase in costs of living makes total sense: the goal is Dems to take over Congress and use the congressional powers to do whatever it takes to open the Strait of Hormuz (including making reparation payments to Iran and allowing Iran to toll ships going through the Strait).

Is as simple as that.

Genuinely curious: what weird quirks have you encountered in Excel? Back 10 years ago when I was using Excel daily I didn’t think anything was weird about it (it was actually my favorite tool)

Good old Roosevelt’s “Talk softly and carry a big stick” worked really well.
