@clarionrox Sofro com cinetose também, me identifiquei 100% com teu relato aí. Tempos atrás Cyberpunk 2077 ficou de graça na PS Plus e resolvi tentar só pra ver. E estranhamente zerei o jogo sem problema algum, zero tontura. Se vc tiver oportunidade, tenta! O jogo é muito bom.

@clarionrox Compartilho o mesmo ódio. Pra tentar resolver eu troquei o idioma do YouTube pra inglês, mas daí os vídeos de canais brasileiros tipo @manualdomundo começaram a vir dublado em inglês! ☹️

@elonmusk Hey Mr. Musk, out of curiosity, I visited the USA Spending website, searched for my country name (Brazil), and found some... peculiar expenses. 🤣 @DOGE

Um ano de Milei: os fatos que a socialistas querem esconder. Peço seu RT pra alcançar mais gente.

A pobreza despencou pra 38,9% na estimativa do governo.

Lembrando: lá pobreza é 1900 reais mensal. Se usada no Brasil, essa métrica daria em torno de 55% de pobreza aqui.

A few people saw me coding while I was in LA last weekend and asked,

"Hey, do you use Cursor or Copilot?"

I do not, and I think it's important to share the reason why.

I tested Copilot in VS Code for a few months earlier this year. Yes, it feels like magic.

But then I noticed a change in my behavior. I'd type up the name of a function I wanted to create...

...and then I'd just wait.

I was waiting for the robot to do my thinking for me.

I've heard @ThePrimeagen call this the "Copilot Pause" and that was 100% my experience.

I remember initially having this defensive thought pattern:

"Well, code auto-complete isn't going away, and I'm still getting good at the higher-level architecture! I shall be the conductor of machines, all shall love me and despair"

But that wasn't true at all. In reality, I was just unconsciously outsourcing my ability to solve problems in addition to outsourcing knowledge of the syntax.

So I uninstalled it (and saved myself the $10/mo in the process).

I do use LLMs in the browser, but in a conscious way. I make a point of seeking out official docs, and of trying to interpret error messages myself instead of mindlessly pasting them.

I do think these tools are extremely useful.

But it also seems that, just as extremely, they entice me to change my habits around problem-solving and mental effort – for the worse.

I think it's very important to be careful how much we rely on them.

We're talking about pre-commit hooks?

Nice. I hate them.

You should take as much compute time off your engineers as possible and put it on CI.

@alexandre Why are you demanding so much censorship in Brazil?

[Michael Shellenberger @shellenberger]

TWITTER FILES - BRAZIL

Brazil is engaged in a sweeping crackdown on free speech led by a Supreme Court justice named Alexandre de Moraes.

De Moraes has thrown people in jail without trial for things they posted on social media. He has demanded the removal of users from social media platforms. And he has required the censorship of specific posts, without giving users any right of appeal or even the right to see the evidence presented against them.

Now, Twitter Files, released here for the first time, reveal that de Moraes and the Superior Electoral Court he controls engaged in a clear attempt to undermine democracy in Brazil. They:

— illegally demanded that Twitter reveal personal details about Twitter users who used hashtags he did not like;

— demanded access to Twitter’s internal data, in violation of Twitter policy;

— sought to censor, unilaterally, Twitter posts by sitting members of Brazil’s Congress;

— sought to weaponize Twitter’s content moderation policies against supporters of then-president @jairbolsonaro

The Files show: the origins of the Brazilian judiciary’s demand for sweeping censorship powers; the court’s use of censorship for anti-democratic election interference; and the birth of the Censorship Industrial Complex in Brazil.

TWITTER FILES - BRAZIL was written by @david_agape_ @elivieira & @shellenberger

We presented these findings to de Moraes, to the Supreme Court (STF), and to the High Electoral Court (TSE). None responded.

Let’s get into it...
