California cryptids are just looking to break into the business & aren’t *really* from there. Sure, they get some photo ops but can you say those weren’t just PR

Would you consider paying on a pay-per-view basis to access sites like this (for an ad free experience)? I’m considering building something in this space that works cross-site - so you wouldn’t have a bazillion accounts - so trying to understand what people are interested in.

Even before Donald Trump became President, the leadership of the GOP had decided that normie Democrats were simply illegitimate political actors....not their fellow citizens with whom they disagreed, but un-American threats to the nation.

This is not the kind of damage a future administration will be able to undo with some supportive legislation here, a big funding bill there. One cannot undo this disaster by reversing these measures any more than one can rebuild a bombed out city by stopping the bombs and restoring electrical power.

Pretty sure the NSA can figure out an encoding scheme to route around this damage. Endergay for example. Would totally go over their heads.

Or perhaps we support and amplify those that *didn’t* support the extremely obviously bad party. Take your energy and grow those people & you’ll see that they far outweigh the people that voted for cruelty.

“MCP uses JSON-RPC 2.0 as its wire format.” Oh, that is unfortunate. RPC as an architectural style tends not to work well for integration across many (data/app) domains. A resource oriented approach would be better.

What is MCP in this context?

The Web is a big pile of APIs, just waiting for some smart agents to drive consumer centered automation. Early on in the rise of LLMs I wondered if companies would get defensive to disallow agents from shifting things around on behalf of consumers (eg. moving money to some other high yield bank)

All of this is to say: be angry at the policies. Be angry at the White House. But don’t blame the civil servants for following the law. Nothing good comes from that. And expecting them to stand down just cuz they had to voice something problematic means that you’re helping tear down the govt too.

Interesting tactic, as a fallback to the moral argument. Not unlike calls for counter-propaganda to leverage the vibe based economy

Be sure to research the options for intra-ocular lenses, they are not all the same.
