I work with dotnet but my understanding is that some applications/ teams are still on java 8 with spring boot or whatever so it isn't like they aren't modernizing but they are choosing to do so at their own time which is fine I think
I tried uploading a git repository that I have previously successfully published on Github pages. This is a "no build" website I have built with the help of Claude. It should just work but I keep getting an error. Who can I reach out to give them steps to reproduce? The website repository is public and I feel like anyone at Cloudflare who wants to reproduce my problem can quite literally clone my repo and upload it to cloudflare drop.
Please drop your cloudflare email address and I will reach out to you with my repository information.
I sincerely believe that a better idea in my opinion is to eliminate all means testing in government benefits altogether. No, higher taxes is not means testing. They are not the same thing at all. Removing means testing means we want the service to be used by all, which means the service should be at least usable by people who have the option to use something else. On a similar note, medicare clawback rules are cruel and unusual punishment. To punish the stupid and ill prepared while rewarding those who did tax planning five years or more before retirement is cruel.
I lived closer to WinCo in DFW area and could walk to a grocery store to buy bread or some random grocery item. It was really nice. I don't think Europeans will ever understand how much of a flex it is to be able to walk to a grocery store in Texas.
> Just south of the Tennessee-Mississippi state line sits dozens of unpermitted gas turbines that power xAI’s Colossus 2 data center while releasing smog-forming pollution, soot, and hazardous chemicals like formaldehyde. The tech company set up the de facto power plant with no permits, no public input, and no notice to nearby communities that will have to deal with the consequences.
> If you don't fight data centers, data centers won't seek solution oriented ways to lower their footprint. You are really saying that you can't fight data center demand. And that is true, but you can restrain their supply, increase their cost, and optimize on low impact approaches.
Not that this is an apples to apples comparison but imagine people saying that about nuclear reactors. Yes, we want them to be as safe as possible and as efficient as possible but that doesn't mean we don't build it. And at the risk of being a NIMBY, AI data centers don't have to be located right next to my house. Unlike regular data centers, these can and should be in the frigid cold. That would probably be for the best anyway. All it needs is redundant fiber network connection, right? Also we should probably require all AI data centers to use renewable energy only. All these are doable but the fight against AI data centers has to be practical and solutions oriented, not fighting it for the sake of fighting it.
The goal should be a single payer health care system.
I am not asking for like luxury spa five star treatment.
However, there definitely should be a
"free of cost at the point of service"
option that does not have any means testing
of any kind.
That should be the goal and once we have that,
it will not matter if you are self employed
or own a business.
We keep doing half measures
and pretend to be surprised when it doesn't work.
Anecdotally speaking, I have seen a change in behavior even from early 2024.
I was in a meeting (online) with a few people from Google shortly before Google IO about something fairly small. The technical engineer actually spoke(!) and he talked about revenue and stuff. I was dumbfounded that technical engineers at Google would ever care about "moving the needle".
Edit: I also asked Gemini 3.1 Pro to analyze the certificate and it looks good
It looks like you have shared an `about:certificate` URL containing a chain of three Base64-encoded X.509 TLS/SSL certificates. This specific chain is used to secure connections to *mistral.ai*.
Here is the decoded breakdown of the certificate chain you provided:
## Certificate Chain Overview
This is a standard three-tier certificate chain issued by Google Trust Services for the Mistral AI domain.

### 1. Leaf Certificate (End-Entity)
This is the specific certificate issued to the website to verify its identity and encrypt traffic.
> High graduation rates are an important metric to administrators. If a professor gave a failing grade to 1/3 of the class they would be in hot water.
I remember practically every single instructor/professor on the first day of class during my freshman year of my undergraduate study said something along the lines of "I have no curves. Your grades depend on you and nobody else. If the whole class does well, everyone can get an A. If nobody does well, everybody can fail."
So I guess this was more motivational to get us to study rather than stating facts?
At some point last year I tried to get Claude free tier or something like that to write me a minimal bootable operating system kernel that would boot inside libvirt.
I didn't try very hard or I wasn't very good at writing the prompt or Claude was not very good but the end result was it didn't work.
A senior developer on my team has an attitude about this AI stuff that I wish I could have or at least feign — it feels like he is genuinely positively surprised and happy every single time it gets anything right. And he quietly fixed stuff when it gets it wrong.
> That 38-minute core was deliberately minimal, and it is worth being precise about its scope. It booted and passed its in-kernel self-tests, and that was the whole of it. There was no user mode and no way to load or run an external program. The threads, scheduler, and dispatcher it built existed to drive the kernel’s own self-tests, not to run software. It was a nano-minimal NT-shaped kernel, not yet a system anything could run on.
I think this is still progress. I agree that we aren't anywhere near where it can replace a programmer but even if we never get there, it is impressive how far it has come.
I grew with you. I just wish they'd stop with this nonstop hype train that over hypes everything like chicken little.
These guys really need to stop polluting the root folder of repo with Claude dot MD and copilot dot MD. Get in a room together and decide on a well known folder structure like docs/llm/*
I feel vindicated in my admittedly seemingly masochistic ritual of copy pasting code from the web browser to visual studio code even though I don't always pore over every line.
> Taiwan's isn't free. Conversely, voter ID cards in the U.S. are free for people that don't have other ID. Texas and Georgia have offered free voter ID cards for more than a decade. All this infrastructure already exists.
Nope, this is not even remotely good enough. Federal mandate must come with federal money. Also, there should be no caveats like "people who don't have other ID". It should be free of cost completely with no additional burden on the part of the voter.
I don't know much about Taiwan but I about it has a sizeable minority whom the government is trying to disenfranchise.
I don't believe it is possible for you and I to see eye to eye on this matter.
It is also worth noting that these mandatory registration schemes are free of cost or I guess free of cost at the point of service. I think if we require a voter ID / national ID card scheme, it has to be free of cost at the point of service as well. These services should be at least AT MINIMUM as ubiquitous as a post office and / or at least TWO full time locations with extended hours for every county / parish / etc.
The funding for this has to come from somewhere and it MUST be the federal government because my state / local government doesn't have money to even build a small sidewalk so it definitely does not have money for all this nonsense.
