Imagine writing a program in a programming language that requires you pay a subscription, requires an internet connection, requires a specific company's servers to be up , and may or may not do what you hope it does!

My manager just checked in a Claude Code skill that's 100+ lines long, instead of writing a 10-20 line Bash or Python script. This thing connects to the internet and mutates resource state.

How does this even make business sense? In the future, it's gonna cost you money just to run a script that used to be free to run? In the future, you're gonna be vendor locked into Anthropic because your markdown scripts run differently on Gemini?? AI! Buziniss! 📈

An Angus Reid survey says three-quarters of more than 4,000 respondents are in favour of a ban like the one in Australia, where youth under 16 are prevented from setting up accounts on TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat and Threads.

Kai Schwemmer, the newly appointed College Republicans of America political director, has made racist, antisemitic, homophobic and sexist statements while espousing extremist rightwing views on abortion, a Guardian review of livestream recordings can reveal.

Schwemmer said he would accept a world in which slavery was legal if abortion was criminalised, describes himself as “very much an anti-universal suffrage guy” and accepts a supporter’s description of him as “our Mormon Nick Fuentes” – referring to the white nationalist influencer whose platform he streamed on for years.

Reports, based on X post from unofficial account, follow JD Vance’s accusations and threats of finding ‘legal remedies’

Several news outlets have falsely reported that Somaliland’s government called for the extradition of Ilhan Omar, basing their stories on a post from an X account that does not represent the state despite its claims to the contrary.

Fox News, the New York Post, Sinclair Broadcast Group’s the National News Desk and the Independent ran stories on the US representative. The reports centred on a post by @RepOfSomaliland in reaction to claims by JD Vance that Omar had committed immigration fraud, which echoed prior allegations against the Somali-born Minnesota Democrat that she has vehemently denied.

“Deportation?” the post read. “Please you’re just sending the princess back to her kingdom. Extradition? Say the word …”

The account is not an official government channel, and Somaliland’s own foreign ministry had said so publicly in December. It said: “Ministry has begun identifying social media accounts that are NOT official Government of Somaliland channels,” adding that they were not authorized to speak on its behalf.

It’s extra fun to be in the back section of the bus and still sit higher than people in their giant emotional support trucks 👀
