No I’m just saying you might as well give up on that dream - the regime will have more support than ever, now.

help the Iranians overthrow the despots

The time to do that was before bombing hundreds of Iranian children. And civilian infrastructure. Way too late now.

Lol

A very entertaining read. I’m completely unsurprised, based on my experience trying to use Azure. Garbage platform.

And now they’re hacking on that shitshow with CoPilot. Jesus wept.

I am very surprised that Australia and New Zealand did not wean themselves off fossil fuels decades ago, given they are developed countries with wealth and skills and democracy.

After everything that has happened, Iran cannot trust any deals.

Iran will not reopen the strait until the whole world knows that attacking Iran is not worth it. They need to inflict enough pain so that decades from now future US presidents remember what happened.

We are a long way from that.

If you installed or updated Claude Code via npm on March 31, 2026, between 00:21 and 03:29 UTC, you may have inadvertently pulled in a malicious version of axios (1.14.1 or 0.30.4) that contains a Remote Access Trojan (RAT). You should immediately search your project lockfiles (package-lock.json, yarn.lock, or bun.lockb) for these specific versions or the dependency plain-crypto-js. If found, treat the host machine as fully compromised, rotate all secrets, and perform a clean OS reinstallation.

Lol 😂

It’d stop them launching ships to lay mines, or launching midget submarines and naval drones, which is a start. It might keep the Iranians too busy fighting on land to aim at ships. It’d basically be an open wound for USA though - completely unsustainable.

Then there’s the fantasy of naval escorts for tankers. Each tanker would require a couple of ships to shadow them (anti-air, anti-sub, anti-drone) for the entire length of the gulf (not just the strait) and in normal times 120 tankers pass through there every day. You’d need a fleet ~400 ships strong, running 24/7 (no repairs or rest). And it only takes one hit from an anti-ship missile and hundreds of sailors die. So that ain’t happening.

It’s a trap.jpg

To do that they’d need to occupy 1000+ kms of extremely rugged coast. That’s quite a commitment…

I couldn’t get past the second level :(

And then there’s the helium supply shortage, on top of that - https://www.techspot.com/news/111683-critical-semiconductor-gas-lost-third-global-supply-drone.html

I am employed by a tiny software dev shop that develops a few apps used in education. No AI at all, unless I proactively choose to and pay for it out of my own pocket.

Without reading the article I knew it would be Terrorgram.

This will not stand. Remember, TACO.

Would you agree that a post written by a LLM is “low effort”?

Hosting a fediverse instance is at the higher end of the scale when it comes to hosting. There tend to be a lot of moving parts as it’s complex software.

Host a static site first, just a bunch of plain HTML files.

Then host a Wordpress site.

Then host a fediverse thing.
