I don't know. Austin isn't the city I fell in love with in the 90s and early 2000s. Chiefly because it's no longer full of native Texans.

You still want to write/review/refine the types yourself.

The trends in NYC are kinda pro-meat but if you're a day-to-day vegetarian or looking for it, there's plenty. I can definitely see showing up at a NY restaurant and everything on the menu having beef tallow in it somehow.

You hit on something there, I could type faster than my 2400 baud connection but barring a bad connection those connections were pretty reliable.

> in a sense we all are, and just don’t realize it yet.

one of the luckiest breaks you can catch in life is to live through something that forces you to realize this.

nah, eff all that. Roll back the snapshot.

If anyone needs a test case, I consider myself a reasonably intelligent human who is absolutely too stupid to use modern technology and would be glad to proclaim that to a court. (executive function, working memory issues. latency is a killer for me.)

Baseball lent itself to advanced analytics even before player tracking became a thing, since the sport consists of a series of discrete one-on-one matchups with limited possible outcomes.

I'd love to read something on how Perplexity+R1 integrates sources into the reasoning part.

If you were on the early internet talking to someone about music or woodworking or whatever, you could reasonably assume they were a tech person because it was not simple to get online. It took a minute for it to spread.

Google is a special case because they specifically removed the "Don't Be Evil" clause, therefore, I can only assume they are in fact fundamentally "evil"

Disinclined, but I would like to publicly thank my parents for a CD Budget that was far too high for a teenager. I was probably averaging 1-3 CDs/month in the 90s, that's a ton of money!

We're talking about a likely inconsequential amount of money for a thing that might be of high importance to a member of the household. What are you talking about?

Unfortunately, whatever ideal you hold of conservative doesn't exist. Trumpism is conservatism's current expression in America and Trump is its thought leader. If conservatives were ok tying their cart to a populist demagogue, then they're going to have to go along for the authoritarian ride.
