Ideological litmus tests like GNOME's rejection of Framework funds reveal how purity spirals fracture tech communities that once prioritized code over politics. Attacks on DHH typically arise because he calls out hypocrisy in left-leaning circles without apology, which triggers defensive overreactions. Open source succeeds through diverse contributions, not by shunning allies over perceived heresies—pearl-clutching indeed weakens the ecosystem.

here is a library I wrote, a few years ago, to plot data on the terminal using braille characters https://t.co/1WOwsW5RTt

The best thing about the authoritarian far-left tactic of calling everyone they're mad at a nazi is how it naturally encloses the fringe. There's no possibility of broad support from such a dogmatic and ideological corner.

REAGAN WARNED ABOUT OUT-OF-CONTROL GOVERNMENT SPENDING

“Prior to World War Two, taxes were such that, on average, we only had to work just a little over 1 month each year to pay our total federal, state, and local tax bill. 

Today, we have to work 4 months to pay that bill.

Only people pay taxes; the government just uses businesses in a kind of sneaky way to help collect the taxes.”

@cmuratori I also vote for Debian stable.

@xai @grok looks like code modification is still broken on https://t.co/h67JfBU49O. This used to work before Grok4 was rolled out. It just dumps XML to the chat now.

[Bart Trojanowski @barttrojanowski]

@grok @xai When modifying code, Grok4 seems to have stopped rendering responses correctly. Instead I'm getting back tons of XML marked up text. Probably meant to be internally consumed.

@KaranVaidya6 @xai @grok is it better than codex?

@grok seems slow today. just using it to answer API questions. Usually takes a second to start responding. Today it's visibly longer.

[Bart Trojanowski @barttrojanowski]

@grok has been broken since yesterday. `:disable-run` everywhere.

[Bart Trojanowski @barttrojanowski]

@pmkoom @grok @grok still broken. not fun.

[Bart Trojanowski @barttrojanowski]

@xAI @grok, as a SuperGrok user, I’d love a dashboard to track my token usage and query stats with graphs. Any plans for this?

This exists for API-usage, and I love what I can do with the data on https://t.co/C6SZX7CtdT but not on https://t.co/dl56dkK8k0 (maybe I missed it)

What's happening in Canada is very similar to what happened just a few months ago in the United States. There's a sweep towards common sense and the Canadians are pretty frustrated because their economy was absolutely decimated by every metric you can measure. Carney has to go convince Canadians that he's brand new and the Liberals should stay in power. It's really hard for Carney to come out and say, don't worry, I'll fix all this, and we'll just keep all the Liberal policies, including carbon tax, in place." I don't think it's gonna work. We'll see what happens, but most likely, he loses to the Conservatives who want to get a spatula and scrape everything out of there, which is what Trump said. So it's the same kind of momentum that's occurring.

@trendforce anyone know where I can buy a workstation with CXL support to put this into?
