https://chqdaily.com/2017/07/paul-raushenbush-discusses-great-grandfathers-inner-vision-carried-work-forward/As for the nation’s literature, Brandeis may have been the first .. to refer to the Constitution as a “living organism, capable of growth and adaptation.”“This approach allows the fresh context of the present to perform alchemy with the wisdom of the past, to offer new ways to make the law and faith relevant and responsive to present conditions,” he said. “Prophetic witness cannot set its gaze backward on a frozen history with an unrecognizable context. Instead, it faces forward, informed by the past, yet determined to bring back vision into the world in the present age.”This no longer works, unfortunately.. how does the constitution change when it is effectively impossible to amend due to Constitutional Calcification .. only "interpret" through a ridiculously gerrymandered (thanks Mitch M) SCOTUS? https://infosec.exchange/@codinghorror/116115405545619662

I don't really see a way out here, honestly. If you do, tell me what it is, step by step. Explain it to me like I'm five years old.

I mean, I do see a way out, but nobody wants to hear it. Because, again, remarkable lack of bravery here in the land of the free. Just MHO.

I'm getting real tired of this "we must change the establishment by being the establishment" bullshit.

@jwz well, it gave me critical information about my health and DNA that none of the dozens of "healthcare professionals" I was working with for 4+ years ever did. (as you can probably understand, I have an entire team working on my stupid ass)

Raising the minimum wage, unless you ask sketchy bought-and-paid-for economists, turns out to be a good thing, actually: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/economists-warned-california-not-raise-110500084.html

I don't make a big deal about it, but one of the reasons I donated to Mastodon is to improve the UI, and the stellar work of @imanijoy is a direct result 🤩 https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/116302074492502983

@imanijoy @Mastodon I really enjoyed your talk. And really, what the fuck is "quiet public"?? Developers do not let fellow developers create UI. Steal it, absolutely, but create it? HELL TO THE NO

"A recent 2026 empirical study titled "Beyond Code Snippets: Benchmarking LLMs on Repository-Level Question Answering" (published on arXiv/ResearchGate) explicitly tested LLMs on codebase comprehension. The researchers concluded that high performance often "results from verbatim reproduction of Stack Overflow answers rather than genuine reasoning."

If you write blogs (or pick synonym of choice) online, do you use LLMs? And if so, how? https://forms.gle/RAK8sTPF8Ey24Ehs6

people still on substack are like "(fetches fainting couch) but mah clicks! my metrics!" You know what, fuck your clicks, fuck your metrics, and FUCK YOU. Grow a backbone, you absolute cowards. I do not, and will not, give any quarter to fundamental assaults on human dignity and civil rights.

read the truth, people. Fuck complicity. And most of all, fuck the so-called "leadership" at substack. I lose a little bit more respect for anyone still on that platform, month after month. Look. Take my advice and do as you please.
