There are far more local and state museums than federal, fortunately. This is still disgusting bullshit though, don’t get me wrong.

Lol, that’s ridiculous. At least here they aren’t requiring us to do that (yet).

In my case, this is modular js code. Copilot doesn’t know how to test the internals of the module so it just calls them directly, which would cause an exception because the function would be undefined.

I end up rewriting the test myself whenever it does this because there’s no reason to export those functions, it would just cause problems. Typically all this requires is changing the test inputs so the internal logic is covered by the test. It’s just too dumb to know that, because it doesn’t actually understand the code at all.

I asked the same question in our meeting about it. They apparently have metrics tracking as part of their contract for copilot. But they also want to see demos etc. Basically forcing us to do busy work and increase stress so the execs can justify blowing money and political capital on AI.

Yeah mine is demanding that we prove that we’re using copilot to generate code.

I wouldn’t care so much if copilot wasn’t a hot pile of garbage. It’s incredibly slow, constantly fails halfway through generating a file, can only handle updating or creating one file at a time, and the code it comes up with always needs manual correction to actually work.

I mainly use it to generate unit tests and it frequently makes shit up that clearly won’t work. Like directly invoking non-exported functions that I deliberately choose not to export, because they don’t need to be exported.

90% of the time it actually takes me longer to use copilot. The only thing it’s good is autocomplete.

We don’t need MAGA to have a majority.

So what? It will be tyranny and we will shut them the fuck up real quick, like they’re trying to do to us.

Every time we do something to them we’ll do so while quoting the Trump EO giving us the same authority that they celebrated him having.

Serbia’s been under their oppressive government for ten years now. Is only been 3 months in the US. The comparisons to Turkey and Serbia are completely ridiculous.

And if real Americans are lucky to get into power again, we need to take advantage of all these new powers and treat them as such.

• Investigate and arrest the leaders of the Heritage Foundation for sedition, for openly attempting to convert our republic into a dictatorship in a clear attempt to overthrow and betray the constitution.

• Withhold federal funding from parasitic, thieving red states.

• Unilaterally declare tax breaks for churches unconstitutional, and issue them bills and indictments for decades of tax evasion.

• Suspend security clearances for all GOP-aligned law firms.

• Ignore court orders from the illegitimate, corrupt supreme court. Instead, investigate them for open and blatant corruption.

• Kick Fox News out of the press corps and investigate and dismantle them for foreign collaboration with enemy Russian propagandists.

• Denaturalize Elon Musk for lying on his initial visa application and then arrest and imprison him for stealing taxpayer money and deliberately weakening US defense systems in concert with his Russian and Saudi financial backers.

• Many many other things we can do to destroy the GOP using the powers they’ve given to Trump.

Only once the treasonous GOP political apparatus has been utterly destroyed, and its leaders are in prison for life, and measures have been taken to prevent its rise again, should we consider restoring congressional and judicial power.

The only way left to stop this shit now is to use their authoritarian wet dream against them and make it their nightmare.

Yeah he’s not wrong, the medicine he prescribed just happens to be strychnine.

“Day to day markets” that have consistently declined for months now.

Yep same old accusation in a mirror bullshit.

Don’t even trust them now. Nothing has happened yet. We can say that they took our side after MAGA is out of power and the extremist apparatus that supported them is totally destroyed.

If there’s one lesson we can learn from Trump, it’s that it’s much easier to destroy something than it is to build it. IF we gain power again, we need to take that lesson to heart, and turn it against the fascists who gleefully applied it to the American people, and the rest of the democratic world.

Is this actually “norm-shattering”? US attorneys are always fired and replaced when the parties switch

McConnell is all talk, that’s the problem. He’s still enabling this administration with his votes.

And he’s not the majority leader anymore, so he has much less power than he used to. It’s all very convenient timing for him to make his legacy look better, while doing nothing material to change policy.

Tech execs have absolutely massive egos.

Overhauls? More like sabotages, and it isn’t going to work. Maybe I shouldn’t feel bad for the AP after all if their just going to carry the dictator’s fucking jock strap.

Oh cool, more mass surveillance tech.

Thanks for providing correct numbers, is been a long time since I looked.

No, it’s much worse than that. The Pentagon announced not long ago that Signal has been compromised by Russia.

Hate to link reddit here, but this comment does a good job of explaining how damaging this really is:

Also, they’re using Signal to dodge FOIA requests, as well as subpoenas, which was recommended by the project 2025 leader Vought last year to hide their illegal activity
