When writing code with Claude you really have to be skeptical when it says it just found the problem, but you have no idea what it's saying, chances are pretty good it's just a word salad excuse for not reading all the code necessary to have an opinion that matters. Actually debugging software isn't about opinions, it's about proof. When you start clutching at straws until one works you just added another level of bug that will eventually bit you in the butt and you'll still have to solve the original one. Uncorrected I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to trust the code it writes, but I guess that's why people have two or more instances playing different roles? For now I'm the one that questions its sanity, more politely though. ;-)

Physicists have discovered that the dark matter structures that scaffold the universe—known as the “cosmic web”—are far larger and more persistent than expected, challenging a core assumption about the universe.

The new policy, which forbids "noise infusion" as a technique for anonymizing data, will "handcuff" the Census Bureau and limit what information becomes public, data experts say.

 (Editor’s Note: The author is a social work student at Texas A&M University–Central Texas.)  On May 20, a black hearse drawn by dark horses led the march of University of Texas at Austin students, clad all in black clothes, past the Governor’s Mansion and the Texas Capitol. The mourners carried signs with the words “Academic […]

At high-stakes meetings with the White House, Anthropic's CEO—a "weirdo," per one official—has been replaced by cofounder Tom Brown.

Kelly Hayes interviews Rebecca Solnit. “There is no rewind button on history. Once people have power & agency, and have seen what it’s like to have rights, voting rights, reproductive rights, they’re not interested in going back. And we’re the majority.”

lundi 8 Pendant la routine matinale, j'ai remarqué qu'une des nouvelles boucles d'oreilles de ma fille était perdue. J'ai cherché dans son lit et sa chambre, mais je ne l'ai pas trouvée. Pendant que j'expliquais à mon mari, je l'ai remarquée sur le sol dans la cuisine. J'...

It's A+'s last week of virtual Grade 4 before summer vacation. This time of the year, when the teachers turn to filler activities like games and movies, she tends to find the pace excruciatingly slow and of little interest to her. There was a substitute teacher on Monday. S...

Now she's facing 17 years for doing her job — conducting oversight and holding this administration accountable.

Let me be clear: targeting elected officials for doing their jobs is what authoritarians do.

LaMonica, I'm with you in this fight.

This is one of those videos that you start watching and then can’t really stop until you’ve finished. Cow Trip tells the story of an effort to save a baby cow by driving it (and another baby cow rescue) in a not-huge SUV 600 miles from Vermont to a sanctuary in Maryland.

A calf in Vermont hits the lottery when a farmer decides to save him. But someone has to drive the baby cow 600 miles to his new home. A freshly retired doctor and his filmmaker daughter volunteer for the job, but nothing goes as planned. What emerges is an unlikely story of a community of people who will do anything to give one calf a real home.

I think maybe this needs to be a children’s book?

In 2018, I became convinced that flamenco had South Asian origins. I hadn’t listened to much flamenco, if any at all, until my roommate Jake introduced me to Rosalía. I watched her dance—using her feet to strike the ground, making an instrument of her body, raising her arms ...

The podcast focused on the rapid growth of educational initiatives in the WordPress community over the past eight months. We talked about the development and distinctions among three primary programs: the WordPress Credits Program (university-level, contributions for academic credit), Campus Connect (open to students of all ages at various educational institutions), and Student Clubs (ongoing, peer-led learning on campuses). The discussion explored how these programs support and sustain each other, lower barriers to participation, and foster the next generation of WordPress contributors, all while emphasising inclusivity, sustainability, and the real-world impact of open source education.
