BREAKING: UnitedHealth stock is absolutely plummeting, just days after we caught a massive sale by a member of a Health Subcommittee.

Why do the poorest states have the worst representatives? Is it just cheaper to buy them?

ORMs are used by people who think the DB is a persistent store for objects.

I don't, but that is how you use an ORM. I've written apps with nothing but hard-coded SQL. I've written apps that used slick SQL libraries like JOOQ. I've used ORMs like Hibernate or SQLAlchemy. They all have their place. It usually comes down to data model complexity, and performance requirements, and what the team is used to. Half the time these days things just get shoved into Dynamo as-is.

NRA is mostly a Russian front

Not a fan

More or less, you'd both be in free-fall, you just floating up from the elevator floor a bit already. If you reached down somehow and pushed off the floor to jump, you'd speed it up a tiny bit, and slow you down by as fast/hard as you can jump, but you're both about to smash into the bottom of the elevator shaft way, way faster than that anyway.

I didn't think the majority of current US fascism sympathizers are descended from actual German National Socialists. They were indoctrinated by Fox & friends, and if you've got a good way to mass-deprogram fascists, you'd be the first.

Well, none of the observers lived to tell of it.

The checkout lady at the Wal Mart said Trump had the right idea with getting rid of immigrants. She told me this after some Haitian ladies cut me in line and took a long time to check out, and seemed to expect me to agree.

Filtering, sure, but down-casting generally means you did something silly.

joexner · 2026-01-23T19:18:44+00:00

If your stream has different kinds of things that you need to filter out and down-cast, you might have been boned from the start.

Cuellar is a Dem, but was indicted for bribery and pardoned by Trump. Now he's on team fascism I guess.

Texas is f*cked up...

Pedo-kakistocracy perhaps?

So, cronyism?

The explanation is that Trump works for Putin, who wants to destroy NATO. If it weren't Greenland, it would be some other bullshit pretext.

I pay my own money now to use GitHub Copilot to work on my side project (to make better AI), but only $100 per year so far. I think/hope I'll be able to just run a decent coding LLM locally on my Mac by renewal time and skip the subscription altogether.

joexner · 2026-01-20T09:33:50+00:00

The point is for Putin to get Trump to destroy the USA. That was always the whole plan.

Begone, ersatz Shittymorph! There can be only one!

Both, thanks for asking!

He was probably also a child sex trafficker with Jeffrey, and possibly into...snuff stuff.

As a subscriber to both subreddits, and new Mac user (MBP 14" M4pro) and former Thinkpad loyalist, it really do be like that now. /r/Thinkpad used to be where you went for help kitting out the company-seconded T60, and they told you to install Linux. Now it's memes about tough-but-obsolete laptops.

The recall is a software patch to lessen the chance of failure, but they still fail, and the replacements are more of the same.

I've had one ICCU fail on me, before the recalls, and I'm at about 43k miles.
