I'm mostly in the "fuck AI" camp. As is my eldest son. The other day I messaged him and said "I hate to say this, but I just had a helpful interaction with AI."

Python has importlib. I've used it many times, particularly when laying DB libraries conditionally.

I was in a situation where I needed to load arbitrary python code from an arbitrary location. I was sure I could use importlib to do this, but couldn't sort it out. Nine of my search results turned to anything that moved me in the right direction. Finally I asked copilot. Not only did it get me where I needed to go but when I told it "I got this error when doing this thing." It told me I was a moron and why.

Needless to say I got my weird problem sorted.

AI still sucks though.

Man, I hope the Duttons don't find out!

I can't stomach most King. My wife has every book he's written.

That said, The Stand would be in my top 5 books ever. I've read it seven or eight times. 11-22-63 is also spectacular. I read it. Watched the Hulu mini-series and now am listening to the audio book.

Well that's the end of me ever doing anything productive for the rest of my life.

And a new phrase entered our vocabulary

It was a bridge too far.

This was a great read. Thank you!

Hard disagree. No matter what someone does state-sanctioned murder is unacceptable. Full stop.

Then you don't need to worry about someone being innocent or authority figures ignoring evidence.

State-sanctioned murder is an evil act.

Reclining your seat is an act of pure evil unless you are sitting in front of a tiny person. Even then it might be considered moderately evil.

It doesn't matter if he was guilty or innocent. State-sanctioned murder is ALWAYS wrong.

Today is my wife's birthday, when she opened her gift it was a reMarkable Pro. So far we're both impressed.
