To be fair, ambushing anyone on the street, out of context, is extremely likely to get a dumber answer than normal.
This would make a good study, actually. Ambush people on the street and quiz them. For the control group, quiz them immediately, on the street. For the experimental group, take them to a more relaxed location, allow them to sit, give them a minute or two to get collected, quiz them and measure the difference from the control group. You can do it with easy, medium, hard questions.

I’ve heard good things about Hunie Pop. So far it’s… uncomfortably sexist. But I guess what do you expect. I’ll give it a shot.

- Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 6 days ago:
You know, you can just look at it. It’s pretty simple, easy to look at, pretty repetitive code where it’s generally pretty easy to spot if something’s wrong.
Vibe coding is more hitting “accept all” and not looking at it at all (or not knowing how to look at it).

Sometimes lorum ipsum is useful.
- Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 6 days ago:
It’s useful for things I’d otherwise Google. It makes a great ORM, when you know exactly what you want to do with a lot of mundane code. And it’s so much better than adding a framework for an ORM.

Is your life likely to change significantly in the next five years? Most people go through fairly big changes in their 20s. How will your future significant other feel about it? Do you care, or is it a deal breaker?

And if you know what you want to hear will make up the entirety of the first page of google results, it’s really good at doing that.
It’s basically an evolution of Google search. And while we shouldn’t overstate what AI can do for us, we also shouldn’t understate what Google search has done.

I mean… it’s not. One problem solves itself over time if not touched, the other is permanent and prevents us from leaving the planet.

You learn to make better policy decisions in your community. You learn that one in a thousand occurrences do actually happen and are worth planning for on a community scale.

Not a silver bullet. This is a deep rabbit hole.
- Comment on Danish Ministry switching from Microsoft Office/365 to LibreOffice 4 weeks ago:
It probably won’t save money in the first year. The transition will likely offset any gains.
It likely will save money every year after that. For everyone. More users means more interest means a smoother experience for everyone, generally.

“the First Amendment protects the right to gather information about what public officials do on public property.” Smith v. City of Cumming, 212 F. 3d 1332, 1333 (11th Cir. 2000).

Does her word override the first amendment?
There aren’t many exceptions, and what’s happening on a public street generally isn’t one of them.

Either way, the money grab is why I didn’t get back into MtG recently.
I considered sticking my toe in and was told “oh yeah, just buy a $90 commander precon and hop right in.”
Yeah, no thanks.

Why do you need an ID? Leave it in your car if you’re driving.
I don’t think there’s a single state that requires you to actually carry documentation.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_and_identify_statutes
These are the states that require you to at least verbally state your name, and only if the officer has reasonable suspicion that you have or will commit a crime.
They can ask your name. You may not have to answer.
Research your state’s law on this before you go. It’s in the link.
