California Homeless NGO scam EXPOSED
- An NGO built 100 tiny homes so small they can barely fit a bed
- The area become an open air drug park
- The NGO charges California $150 per night. That’s $4,500 per month, per unit
- The NGO is making $450,000 PER MONTH
- NOBODY IS EVEN SLEEPING IN THE HOMES, “Instead of people just sleeping in the tiny homes, drug dealing is being done by the tiny homes”
@Brookerteejones interview “Those tiny homes, they fit about a bed and a little bit more. So they built about maybe over 100 tiny homes. So when that started, all the drug dealers stormed its area.
So it's full, open air, drug dealing there every day. So of course it brings crime because they want the money for the drugs. Homes are broken into, robberies, looting, and of course, homeless camps around this whole area. So these tiny homes didn't really help any anything. It just hurt the whole neighborhood.
The owners of these tiny homes are charging $150 a night for the size of a car. Yeah.
So the city pays $150 a night for the homeless people to live in these tiny homes to a corporation who owns the tiny homes. But instead of people just sleeping in the tiny homes, drug dealing is being done by the tiny homes”
“Some nonprofits are operating the tiny homes, and they make a lot of money. They're paid by the city. Everything they do, they're paid.” minds.com/newsfeed/17765852938…

Trump's Repost - Biden executed?
"... There is no way for me to know for sure if Biden is alive or dead. But at the same time, a good place to start is to at least consider that Trump really means what he says and everything he says isn’t always trolling. There is plenty of evidence that Trump has told us before that Biden is dead. It makes sense that Trump wouldn’t have willingly handed over the executive branch to the Deep ...

Tiniest garden summer has officially begun.
I love how well these painted nettle cuttings from the one plant from last summer go with these red petunia. Also planted lots of it in the garden beds.
Also love the flower clay pots we painted and the huge night princess cactus that was just a leaf cutting last year. It's going to again live outside for the summer.
Monsteras will also move outside this year, but not yet.

And here is the tiny meadow we planted to the front of our apartment a year ago on what was just barren earth. Without asking permission from anyone (rental).
It is looking amazing, so much forget-me-not and lots of stuff coming up.
I escalated it this spring and sprinked more seeds all around it to similarly barren land. Give it a few years and it will be great.
So many bees and butterflies every day. We get to watch the visitors from our kitchen windown.

Hear, hear. There are thousands of ways to be a Jew. Once an antisemite told me “Fucking yid, when Hitler’s back you’ll burn in oven”. So I’m definitely a Jew, whatever my origins, my religion, my will, or my opinion about the matter. Everyone's somebody else's Jew, or Negro, or else. The day you get this, you can't be a racist anymore (unless your brain's dead).

If LLMs are basing their outputs on what they've read, why don't they footnote every assertion of fact and provide a bibliography? That would get authors off their backs, and it would also enable LLMs to work as search engines.
I've heard that they don't because of a fundamental flaw in the basic design of LLMs that makes that impossible.
Is that correct?
And is that fundamental flaw also the cause of the bullshit (also euphemistically called "hallucinations") that LLMs often output?

Opposition to a planned rule to limit heat deaths comes as oil and gas workers face increasingly dangerous conditions.Ariel Wittenberg (E&E News by POLITICO)
The note to make on this post is the domain. Fly is an hosting company so if “AI lets us go faster” and “AI makes bad code but we’re slowing down to make it usable” (paraphrased) is their self-contradictory policy, that puts a question mark on hosting with them
Also, going “many of you will lose your jobs but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make” is almost admirable as a douchebag move, but it’s also the norm in tech. There is no class solidarity to speak of in tech.

Si vous en avez marre des bots qui pourrissent votre serveur web, j’ai une solution qui va vous plaire. En effet, il est possible comme dans vos rêves les plus fous, de transformer chaque bot malveillant en kamikaze involontaire avec un simple fichier de 1MB. C’est ce que permet de faire une zip bomb et croyez-moi, c’est aussi jouissif que ça en a l’air.
D’abord, parlons du problème de fond. En 2024, d’après le dernier rapport Imperva, les bots représentaient environ 51% du trafic web total. Oui, y’a officiellement plus de robots que d’humains sur Internet. Et sur ces 51%, pas moins de 37% sont des bots malveillants, contre 32% en 2023. Ça fait donc un sacré paquet de nuisibles qui scannent, spamment et tentent d’exploiter la moindre faille.

Das Dobrindt auch schon in der Vergangenheit ein eigenes Rechtsverständnis hat, sollte bekannt sein. Bisher hat er jedoch nur mit dem Geld der Bürger gespielt. Hier geht es aber um Grundfeste einer Demokratie.
Zurückweisungen von Asylbewerbern an deutschen Grenzen kann man gut, falsch, effektiv oder unsinnig finden. Aber hier geht es um den Stil, um das Wie. Ein Bundesinnenminister, der mit Ansage geltendes Recht bricht und der dann, als ein Gericht sein Vorgehen erwartungsgemäß stoppt, sagt: Egal, weiter so - so ein Innenminister bereitet Sorgen. Weil er das Recht, die Ordnung schleift.
.. und weiter
Dobrindt, der selbst kein Jurist ist, hat sich darüber einfach hinweggesetzt. Der Beschluss des Berliner Verwaltungsgerichts war für viele Juristen nun wirklich keine Überraschung. Auch Dobrindt muss damit gerechnet haben - und was macht er? Er tritt vor die Presse und sagt wörtlich: "Es gibt keinen Grund, aufgrund einer Gerichtsentscheidung, die heute hier erfolgt ist, in diesem Einzelfall unsere Praxis zu verändern."
.. zusammenfassend
Aber in einem Rechtsstaat sollte nicht das persönliche Rechtsverständnis eines Ministers oder seiner Partei entscheidend sein, sondern das geschriebene Gesetz und die Auslegung durch die unabhängige Justiz. Und wenn ein Innenminister - also der Mann, der auch die Polizei verantwortet - öffentlich erklärt, sich von Gerichtsentscheidungen nicht beeindrucken zu lassen, dann signalisiert er: Recht gilt nur, wie es mir passt.

Do all dreams have the same quality? What if some dreams need to be chased, but others only come condensed like dew on the unfaltering ground. How dare I equate dreams and some kind of state of remaining still? If stillness words, like peace and sleep are really the stuff that dreams are made of, then the dream is that which comes to us, and the other way around only as a reflection of those qualities we can lie down peacefully with.
As a value-oriented language, English has made "dreams" to be something you could dream about--select your dream and sleepwalk to win--rather than an inherent quality. As with all values, the activation under will realizes the limits of their constituting qualities. Again and again we become sleepwalkers for the sake of our wills' realization, the dream...and yet if there is a real meaning to this, then we can resurrect it by remaining still and letting the dream come to us. No one knows, because there are always hidden variables guaranteeing our freedom. But it would be hard to say "you are wrong" when I claim that sleep comes before dreams.

NixOS is a Linux distribution that is completely and entirely reproducible. Everything you use is defined in a configuration file that is used to build your system. All the services, packages, options, partition layout, hardware, everything, is in this config file.
If you're a developer, your eyes might be sparkling right now: that's right, one config file to exactly replicate your entire development environment.
You also can never get into dependency hell. Packages all declare exactly which versions of each library they need, and these versions are all installed side by side and kept, not erased by newer versions.
To create your configuration, there's a main configuration file in /etc/nixos, called configuration.nix.
This file uses its own specific syntax, that is entirely functional: it describes everything the system uses and with which options, from the hardware, the bootloader, the services, the packages, the apps, the users, everything.
This file is then used to build your operating system. Nix will read everything in there, and install, configure, and enable or disable everything, based on what the file contains. So, if you build a nixOS system with the same config file as someone else, you'll get exactly the same system.
Once you rebuild your system, there are now multiple entries in the boot loader: one for the new build, and one for the old one: you can always roll back to the previous configuration.
Of course, all of this requires root access to edit the main config of the system. But if you don't have root access, or if you don't want to add programs to your main reproducible config, but just test them out for now, you can also install packages as a regular user, using the nix package manager. Or you can add flatpak to your config file, or run appimages. But installing programs will be mainly done using the Nix package manager.
The Nix package manager works on any Linux distro, but also on macOS, WSL, and more. It's preverytty easy to use. If I want to install, for example, OBS, I'll just type
nix-env -iA nixos.obs-studio
The -i is the argument to install, and the capital A is to tell the package manager to install using the specific name of the package, instead of looking through the whole repo, which is way slower.
If I want to remove the package, I can use nix-env -e obs-studio, and it will be removed. Note that installing packages with nix-env doesn't add them to the config file.
NixOS works with channels. By default, you'll use the Stable channel, with tested packages that get security updates only, and major feature updates when there's a new release of NixOS, every 6 months.
To update, you can just run the command
sudo nix-channel --update
This will pull all the latest package versions from the channel your system uses.
Then you run the "nix-rebuild switch --upgrade" command, and your system will grab every new version of every package, and rebuild the system based on your configuration file.
Important to note, the new version of a package is installed alongside the old one. The new versions are the ones that will be used, thanks to a simple symbolic link system that always points to the newest version of a package, but you can rollback to an older one.
To get newer packages, at the risk of having a less stable system, you can switch to the unstable channel.

US military campaigns against Yemen failed to achieve their goals.The US, under President Biden, launched two military campaigns, Operation Prosperity Guardian and Operation Poseidon Archer. However, both operations were unsuccessful, with most coalition partners withdrawing and ships continuing to be hit.
America's preferred method of warfare, aerial warfare, is no longer cost-effective nor practical, and the US has no alternative modes of warfare to fall back on.
