I have always thought this. Being a burden is a legit reason

[Steven Pinker @sapinker]

I would have pushed harder against the argument that not wanting to be a burden on loved ones is an illegitimate reason for assisted dying. My life is meaningful and worth living because I value my loved ones' well-being. If my life is unremitting misery AND I'm ruining the lives of those I love, why should it be illegal for me to choose to give them back their lives, the ultimate act of altruism and compassion?

Maybe it is just me, but this is arguably the most recognizable location in the Middle East?

@luispedrocoelho @oscarcsims weather and geography mater too. Brisbane is hot and hilly, and is particularly suitable to high rises
- shadows are good. nice shade from the sun
- buildings feel less imposing next to a river or in valleys or hills

give me some young woke Asian American tears I'm going to add that as a salt substitute to some pandan ice cream

[Mark Ledwich @mark_ledwich]

my algorithms made me witness the hmart discourse. This is accurate.

the asian american chungus babies doing culinary gatekeeping are annoying and i hate their poetry of unbelonging. they are overly sensitive because the only connection they have to their culture is food since even learning the language is too much effort for them.

I'm colonising the space of my local asian grocery, and fusionong random things with very little knowledge and the owners love it

prediction: no word records will be beat at enhanced games by an enhanced competitor (some are clean).

serious athletes don't want to jeopardize their standings in mainstream comp/circles, and also sponsorships.

@gbrl_dick oh

[Mark Ledwich @mark_ledwich]

you would think software dev is rational, and we try to sound like we are. In fact this person probably even thinks they are!

But we act more like warring religious tribes.

yt-dlp plans to drop support for Bun
Reason: it is vibe-coded

[Nathan Clark @nathanclark_]

it’s in gemini, just create it in ai studio. oh, that’s for your personal google one account. for workspace you need gemini business. no, not gemini advanced, that’s ai pro now. unless you need ai ultra. oh agents? you do that in spark actually. no, not gemini api managed agents, that’s different. for coding use jules. unless you mean the agentic ide, that’s antigravity. no, that’s the old antigravity, download the new one. actually gemini cli is being deprecated, use antigravity cli. no the flash model is smarter than the pro model. unless you need pro. if it’s video, use flow. no, flow uses veo. no, nano banana is images. actually that’s in gemini now. unless you’re in search, then it’s ai mode. no, research is notebooklm. anyway it’s all very simple.
