So, is it ok for coding? :-)


> In fact, most are more than eager to disagree with me :D (even though I’m their superior)

They must have spent a lot of time out of India or they are in senior roles.


> Ebay doesn't want to deal with charge backs for hallucinate purchases

A charge back doesn’t mean buyer always wins. Imagine if credit card companies also pass a rule - “LLM or AI purchases are non-refundable”.

On a different note - once I tried to cancel an eBay order within a minute, both eBay and seller declined. It’s so fked up with them.


> The moment you start rubber-stamping those, you end up with a codebase you don't understand.

Yeah, treat it like an intern or junior engineer who needs constant feedback and reviews.


Grab bathroom door handle with a napkin then or use a pocket hand sanitizer

They shouldn’t have turned away Apple then!

> Some kids start working at 14 or 15: they can be trusted to work somewhere outside of home, but not online?

It’s not just the kids, but stalkers and criminals. There’s a reason full driving and drinking age is 18.


> This is more than Trump being Trump.

Correction: This is more than Trump not being Presidential!


Both sides are meeting again today. Not sure what are they going to discuss when it’s a complete deadlock situation.

Not sure why the Danish and Greenlandic governments go to the WH to discuss with Vance. This is appearing weak.

Civilised people might consider it to be "appearing reasonable"?

Trump is not long for this world, MAGA might crumble or more probably fall under the control of one of the possible successors in the WH. Establishing diplomatic ties with his wranglers pre heart attack is smart.

As for how this is seen internally for Danes, at least in my part of the world the US admin has already achieved crackhead with a knife status. I suspect that trying the dog whisperer shtick (like Mamdani) will not be seen negatively.


They requested a meeting with Rubio. Only later on Vance said he would crash the party.

Sure but why should they request a meeting? The Americans should go to Copenhagen if they want to discuss something.

You go to the King, the King does not go to you. The party that travels is the weaker one. Maybe that's childish but it is the standard power play even in daily life and business.


> This president is off the rails not even trying to have even a flimsy cover of legality.

Rather he has a nerve to declare US War powers act illegal and threatened, abused, and yelled at those 5 republican senators who voted with democrats. Wild times!!
