s/subject/object - there's no objective standard for hatred. I find it funny that Trump was pretty much universally liked until he ran for President as a Republican. If you go back to his interviews in the 80's and 90's, he's pretty much saying now what he said back then, so what changed?

How is it now compared to 6 months ago? I tried it back then, and just... I don't know, couldn't get into it.

We just had a death on the road, from a driver hitting a cyclist in a group. I'm a life-long cyclists, and I now am somewhat fearful about cycling on the road. I see so many groups that take an entire lane and not even care about the cars behind them - it's easy to understand the frustration of the drivers. It's a knotty problem, I wish we had more bicycle lanes.

But there's a value in having a defined, stable language definition. Being able to rely on the basic language not changing is a feature, not a bug. Though it does mean you have to sometimes search for a good lib if you don't have a feature built into the language.

the body will actually turn protein into glucose, so the body will never be completely glucose free.

Healthy cells CAN turtle-up, whereas cancer cells engage in unregulated reproduction. Also, some cancer cells can only consume glucose. Which, in a fasted state, would mean that the majority of energy would be in ketones(if the individual were metabolically healthy), starving the cancer cells to death.

I spent an enjoyable afternoon on Kailua beach snorkeling for garbage. I found a fishing pole, a complete snorkeling set, and bunches of other stuff. I just grabbed what I found, took it back to the beach, and dumped it in the garbage can. Very satisfying day.

How many times are we going to have to learn this lesson?

If even a Democratically-led California is doing this, how can you point fingers at just the GOP? It's endemic to the system, and not restricted to just one party.

Federal involvement during WWII led to the founding of Silicon Valley.

We're getting closer and closer to Jarvis.

Harry Seldon would, no doubt, find this fascinating. Imagine having a sliding-window LLM that you could use to verify a statistical model of society. I wonder what patterns it could deduce?

Also look at how defensible having your power generation outside your coastline is. This is creating a big vulnerability in your power grid.
