More than half imo, my Forerunner 265S is pretty much a full-blown coach that fits on my wrist. It adapts training to my sleep (such a great feature when you've just had a baby) ke…

Someone instantly started spamming the bee movie's introduction. Solid pun.

> Would they not be in favor of _less_ regulation so they can provide services to their users with fewer legal considerations? Regulatory capture. If the handling of user messages …

The 42.7M tourists that went there in 2025 just enjoyed seeing the incredible decay of a dying country, a morbid fascination or sorts. /s (obviously)

It's so sad that Disney burned some Star Wars fans so much that they will never give Andor a chance. It is such a work of art.

You still have near-infinite tokens, you just don't get awards for using a lot.

> Do you think ai usage will decrease due to this change ? Frivolous usage sure, internally at Amazon there is a subculture (if you can call it that) of award chasers. Using Kiro f…

This is how I learn that they shutdown the awards for Kiro usage. But more seriously, while this is worded as a result of abuse, it had been up for more than a year at this point a…

Perhaps not a monster, but in "It takes two", there is a particular scene where you have to murder a friendly stuffed elephant to get your in-game daughter to cry. I have been play…

> Smoke-free > Less than 5% Incredible milestone but when 1 in 20 is still smoking I feel like it's a bit early to call yourself smoke free.

Maybe, but I have trouble with the framing. Referendum votes are >50%. If a foreign nation can get >50% of the Albertans to agree to something, that's still democracy. Yes it feels…

Free mulligan means on your third hand you would only bottom 1, not 2. Besides, with a 37 lands commander deck, the chances that in 4 hands (if your limit is bottoming 2, 5 cards i…

Alternatively you give everyone a free mulligan and if they decide to start with My issue with guaranteed lands is that they remove the randomness of some lands. I am not guarantee…

> No Land destruction. It sucks to be unable to cast spells. I have yet to find someone actually running land destruction in their deck, it's such a hated mechanic.

> selling this at $15/hour/user??? That math does not math. A quick google says there are between 1.5 and 4.4 million developers in the US alone, let's say it's 5 million, to be ge…

What exactly should the author have done differently? It's part of the leadership roles to understand the power structures within your organization. Reading between the lines, a ne…

For me the next step should explore how to cut out the firing part of the process altogether, pottery looks cool but the process requires a lot of energy. Perhaps it could be done …

Bah the other wheels usually die of natural causes if you wait a bit. I am a big believer in Amazon's "1 > 2 > 0" for "one perfect solution is better than two, but both are much be…

I didn't say it was devoid of substance, the poll part is actually interesting (and worth discussing!) it's just that it actually appears *after* the sloppy tweets and "someone pre…

This is poor reporting, almost needs a checklist: [X] Tweets and instagram comments presented as "what society is thinking" [X] Ties Luigi Mangione and the California warehouse fir…

The unwritten thing is that if you need seniors to review every single change from junior and mid-level engineers, and those engineers are mostly using Kiro to write their CRs, the…

I am not in that specific meeting but it made me chuckle that a weekly ops meeting will somehow get media attention. It's been an Amazon thing forever. Wait until the public learns…

My favorite is seeing thought leader-style posts in LinkedIn by coworkers whose writing style I am familiar with, clearly written by an LLM.

> you could reduce headcount via attrition which is better in some ways I don't think reducing via attrition is better for the company, for the employees 100%, but attrition would …

My pet peeve with AI is that it tends to work better in codebase where humans do well and for the same reason. Large orchestration package without any tests that relies on a bunch …
