I think it's more just saying that second person narrative is not common and so it tends to throw people off. Not that your points aren't necessarily valid, but I don't think you can get all the way there just off of second person being an uncommon literary perspective.

Far better to give elected representatives this responsibility, IMHO. This is bizarre. There are a lot of billionaires jockeying for influence and resources here. It's almost like a free for all. Musk could also use his position to force Sam Altman's hand in the acquisition of OpenAI, https://www.wsj.com/tech/elon-musk-sam-altman-relationship-6.... I'm not interested in either party, but it's clear there are huge conflicts of interests here.

Much of this is impossible to follow closely. Like I said, this administration seems to be flooding the zone with shit to distract others from what their real intent is. I think it's worth vetting and questioning positions in government, you can't just blindly trust these ppl. Something seems really off. I say question everything at this point. I don't trust billionaires to fix the worlds problems. Democracy and the constitution should be upheld and well guarded.
Also same company: terminate every software engineer they hire for lack of attention to detail
I’m hiring my replacement… in public. (More on what’s next for me later!)

When I started at Live Data Technologies, my directive was simple:
Put content and context around our real-time job change data.

Two years later, that directive has evolved into an ecosystem-driven Marketing & Insights function that turns job change and employment data into compelling narratives, facilitates incredible partnerships, and generates demand, making Live Data seem larger than life.

As I look to hire my replacement, I thought there would be no better way to find and assess candidates than to let anyone interested in the role show their skills in public. After all, the whole point of the role is to turn job change data into insights that get shared with the world.

How will this work?

1) Get the data*
We’re giving open access to a dataset of 100K+ job changes we’ve detected in 2025, the Moneyball and Moneyball Battle platforms, and the Live Data logo.

2) Find the story and visual
Use the data, the platform, and your data viz and copywriting skills to surface compelling insights. Use my previous posts or news stories as inspiration or come up with a wild hypothesis about what job change data can uncover. Just make sure you’re confident in your analysis before you post and can field any follow-up questions about your process. One of the most important skills for this job is having a good bullsht meter.

3) Post it on LinkedIn
A huge part of this role is sharing these insights with the world. Share your take and make it interesting (bonus points if you go viral or spark a cool influencer partnership).

4) Tag me + Live Data Technologies
We’ll see it, the world will see it, and if it’s good, we’ll reach out to talk.

Other “rules”
Post as many insights as you’d like but… make sure to maximize each one. We’re all subject to the LinkedIn algo gods and the role requires understanding how to get the most out of a post.
Adhere to the unwritten Live Data brand guidelines… aka make sure your viz looks cool (hint: we like dark mode).
The best viz isn’t always the one with the most likes. Vanity metrics are cool. Targeted insights that engage Live Data’s ICP are what pay the bills. Keep both in mind.

That’s it… it’s that simple. We’ll be watching.

> What's more likely though is that you just point your router's DNS setting to Pi-hole, and in that case there is only one client on the Pi-hole dashboard - your router.

That depends entirely on what capabilities your router has.

Many routers have a setting for the DNS info they give to clients via DHCP, which would mean every client is indeed using PiHole directly for DNS resolution.

Other less capable routers, only have a setting for which upstream DNS server(s) the router should use, which of course isn't going to allow you to do anything with PiHole's group stuff.

But an easy solution is simply to disable the DHCP server on the router, and simply use what is built-in to PiHole. It uses dnsmasq behind the scenes, and as DHCP servers go, it's pretty capable and configurable. This is how I use PiHole on my own network, and have done for years now (with some customised dnsmasq config, because I have strong preferences about my network setup and services).

Most routers do nothing particularly special regarding DHCP anyhow, so no big deal to just turn it off, and use PiHole's stuff.

FWIW, and tangent to these specific points, my upgrade to the new PiHole 6 earlier today was pretty smooth — with the exception of it defaulting to having its dashboard on port 8080 instead of my previous 80. Plus I had to tweak a couple of settings to ensure it loads my custom dnsmasq config. But no deal breakers at all.

The way funding was allocated is entirely broken, and it was the biggest problem with doing anything in the government. Our budget process at the federal level is entirely broken. Congress tries to micro-manage the budget to get their cut of funds to their sponsors, and their is no political appetite to have a more reasonable budget process ( like Congress approve top line budget, and lets the agency choose how to spend the money ). The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) doesn't work for inter agency procurement, and IMO is not a good system for any kind of procurement. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) should be thrown out, as it has proven its self to be worse then having literally no rules at all. All the rules about Veteran Owned, and Small Disadvantaged Businesses are just mechanisms for fraud. Companies would "dissolve" and then new companies would form that could win those bids, and then they would hire everyone from the large company that just dissolved.

You should already have a clue, you have to write a lot of JavaScript in order to get Svelte doing what you'd expect outside of very simple components. See these actions as an example, and check out the JS file! https://svelte.dev/tutorial/svelte/actions

Svelte makes more sense if you enjoy the JavaScriptisms. In which it provides enough "magic" for most things, but still lets you enjoy JavaScript.

Your penalty for driving to the store was too small. The nearest one I have is 1h away.

Magical realism. The edges of any "genre" is going to be very fuzzy.
The big feature miss for me in this announcement is baked in support for configuration sync between servers. Redundant DNS is common and it would be nice if pi-hole supported this oob. Making it even better would be an ability to see stats across all synced servers from one location.

> A React class component from 10 years ago will still work in React today perfectly well,

This isn't true.

ComponentWillMount and related methods were deprecated and then removed.

Yes, they allowed an escape hatch of UNSAFE_ComponentWillMount etc, but that still requires work to make it compatible, so it definitely doesn't "[work] perfectly well".
Musk has an advantage. He's got, ahem, "read-only" access to the governments systems so that he can train on them and be ready to supply the government exactly what it needs. Now, normally, I think this should be a huge conflict of interest, but I worry we are post-normal.

I guess it will sounds like I being Valve advocate here, but it's just not only a bottom line. Valve simply dont have headcount to crackdown on many things and neither they have headcount to do lots of predatory stuff too.

Valve is under 400 people and wast majority of them do not work on Steam or specific game like CSGO. Likely each project support team is like 30-50 people at most.

To compare numbers for other companies in 2023-2024:

* Epic Games - 4000
* Nintendo - 7,724
* Sony Interactive Entertainment - 12,700
* Take-Two Interactive - 12,371
* Electronic Arts - 13,700
* Activision Blizzard - 17,000
* Mircosoft Gaming - 20,100

Might be they do have to go to hire 100 more people to solve this problem and might be it's fully their fault, but expectations many people have of this certainly rich, but small company are not realistic.
Currently coding my little wayland compositor... for AMD GPUs, in RISC-V assembly running on x86_64 with a x86_64 assembly written little interpreter.

Getting ready.

Dunno if I'll reach something usable... you know... IRL interferences.

I wish AI could generate some code paths of average complexity in RISC-V assembly, because since writting assembly takes more time, maybe refactoring and verifying AI code may be faster (namely death to compilers).

Very interesting comment anyway, thanks!
Absolutely, with full immutability the borrow checker doesn't give you much at all.

It also doesn't cost you much, the borrow checker just gets out of your way if you just wrap all your immutable data in reference counted pointers (try out imbl [1] for instance). It's not free - there's some syntax overhead compared to a language that was intended to primarily work this way - but it's cheap.

I think it's reasonable to view the borrow checker as a generalization of immutability. Immutability says "no mutation", the borrow checker says "no mutation unless you are the only thing that might be accessing the data". Edit: Worth noting though that the rust standard library and ecosystem is a take on this that doesn't emphasize staying within the fully immutable regime as much as it could, instead preferring to improve performance. A variant of rust that tried to explore keeping more things immutable would be interesting.

Personally my take is that there are some problems which are very naturally represented immutably, and there are others that are very hard to fit in that framework. The borrow checker is general enough to capture almost all of that second category as well. But if you're firmly in the first category, and you aren't worried about every last drop of performance, there's probably some managed language with strong immutability that is a better fit.

This is the same issue that would happen with any closed source software, and why the push for fully open source or at least "semi" open source models (which provide the weights but not the training data). If you are critically dependent on software that can just disappear for reasons out of your control, you're beholden to its developers.

On the flip side I feel that this is the big problem with monetizing AI. AI is already bad enough in that its output is practically always untrusted output, so any customer-facing application of AI requires a second AI to make sure the first AI didn't output anything improper to consumers or even children (because parents are okay with an app that just tells their children randomly generated text, apparently).

It would be a little better if you had control over the model. But without a intellectual property rights over the model, what is the AI company even selling? A GUI? So anyone can just copy and paste the model, skip all the training costs, and just sell a react frontend for the model trained for billions of dollars?

It feels like you can't make money from training the AI in a way that makes sense for customers, but you can make money from selling the AI that someone else trained by selling access to it for non-technical users.
Most people, based on my experience, would rather support Elon Musk than support a strategy recommended by an individual who believes that the MSM should be trusted.

Not to mention that most of your sources to support your points are from far left MSM sources.

Your reasoning is exactly why there is so much support for Elon Musk. You probably made more Elon Musk fans just by your post.

Most people seem to believe the government is broken and MSM is a huge reason for this.
Isn't the Game Porting Toolkit still under that weird license where developers are only allowed to use the DirectX translation layer for "evaluation purposes"? End-users can use it to run Windows games if they want, but AFAICT developers are categorically not allowed to build their own ports around it, they still have to port their game over to Metal the hard way.

I understand people use these logins, but I'm not trusting a third-party login to gate access to anything I might miss. It's already annoying enough that there are virtually no access guarantees for a service, but to add a second point of failure is a risk I'm not going to take if I have any fear of losing access. For something like TikTok where I can download the recipe videos the risk is appropriately low, but that's the only place I can think of off the top of my head where I actually use a login provider.

Plus, it offers very little convenience for users vs just using a password manager. I realize figuring out the right bcrypt/datastore setup is kind of annoying, not to mention opening you up to liability, but it's always been worth it to me in the past.
Probably more to do with the economies of scale. More TVs are sold than PC monitors so therefore cheaper.
What makes this even more insulting is that their “premium support” is trash.

You pay a percentage of your gross AWS bill and the support is useless in my experience.
There is a point about timescales.

The judicial is, by design, retroactive: transgressions are made, cases are litigated, decisions come down, and then redresses are made [0]

The executive is, by design, immediate: decisions are made and implemented, then can be legally challenged

The gray area between the two is judicial restraining orders, where the facts of the case and/or the possibility of unredressable outcomes support the immediate nullification of an order, while the case is being litigated.

Or this is just to avoid them scraping and being up to date.
