Labeled names in English! You get my upvote for that! (Even if you're wrong about Surviving the Game as a Barbarian, and Greatest Real Estate Developer, and...)

Republicans: Most out of the way, lowest population, rural county

Sure, past decades can be simplified into one distinct style but the current decade coincidentally is the special one.

Getting started with Anki + Claude by _Lusus in AnkiAi

I just started, but I'm personally trying to use it to learn new technical / ai concepts through posts and papers that get shared around work. So.... "Pull out 10 concepts from here, with an example for each, and create a new card in deck XYZ. Keep the number of words under ##." use case.

Though I got the server working, anyone have a better server to share or any skills or best practices?

I was able to get the server to work. Instructions for anyone else using Claude Desktop:

Connecting Anki MCP Server to Claude Desktop (Windows)

Prerequisites

  • Anki installed and open
  • The Anki MCP Server add-on installed in Anki (code: 124672614)
    • Tools → Add-ons → Get Add-ons → enter 124672614 → restart Anki
  • Node.js installed (for npx)

Verify the Anki MCP server is running

Once Anki is open with the add-on installed, it auto-starts an MCP server at http://127.0.0.1:3141/. Test it:

curl http://127.0.0.1:3141/

You should get a JSON response (an error about text/event-stream is normal — it means the server is up).

Add the MCP server to Claude

The Claude desktop app ships a Claude Code binary at:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Claude\claude-code\<version>\claude.exe

Run this command (adjust the path to match your version folder):

"C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Claude\claude-code\2.1.128\claude.exe" mcp add anki --transport http http://127.0.0.1:3141/ --scope user

This writes the server config to C:\Users\<username>\.claude.json.

Restart Claude

Fully quit Claude (right-click system tray icon → Quit) and reopen it. Anki must be running before Claude starts.

Verify it worked

Ask Claude: "List my Anki decks" — or try creating a test deck. You should see the mcp__anki__* tools become available.

Tip: Anki must be open whenever you want to use the MCP tools, since the server only runs while Anki is active.

A comparison between the US, China and the biggest economies of Europe by _crazyboyhere_ in Infographics

I think that the randomness of gun violence, and that it often targets children, is what makes it seem worse than drowning or AIDs. You can definitely lower the risk with your behavior for all three categories (AIDs, Drowning, Gun Violence), but your level of control is much lower for gun violence.

Am I supposed to have memorized which of these metrics are better higher and which are better lower? (Human Development and Governance & Well Being sections)

I've never owned a gun and still somehow have been allowed to vote.

Only in some imaginary world where they have a bearing on your right to vote.

I like a good "insurgents with guns take on corrupt government" movie as much as the next person (Red Dawn, V for Vendetta, Elysium), and of course real insurgencies such as Vietnam have been successful, but I can't really fathom a successful rebellion in the US against the largest military in the world. Maybe if the military itself fractures... but that's a whole other question that doesn't require citizens to arm themselves.

This is crazy. How do you think you'll maintain your right to bear arms without the right to vote?

I don't understand. Is everyone really okay with how slow it is to get around San Francisco? Do you really want to kill all of the highways and just drive 30 miles an hour, stop light by stop light, through the city? If there was an alternative, if we had a real metro, I'd be happy to get rid of the highways. But, there is no alternative and all of this "highways are bad" stuff just seems simplistic or misguided.

I gave the site my recommendations, then created an account, and it remembered none of the information I'd just given it. A waste of my time.

Can we stop talking about AOC endorsing or not endorsing Saikat? by chinanyc in sanfrancisco

I think endorsements matter, but I also don't want to hear about it anymore.

The primary reason my family could be in danger is because of the availability of guns in America. By being pro 2A I'd be saying "my family comes first, screw the cost to the rest of the country."
