I’m always reminded of the Irish Potato Famine whenever I’m eating tater tots and I reach down for the next one and realize I already ate all of them.

In the past I haven't really taken Lectric too seriously because they are more of a budget brand than I typically look at. It seems the quality and customer service now are pretty good and the value is hard to beat. There just aren't any better options really that can do what we need it to do without spending $5k+ which isn't in our budget.

Down the road I'd like to go down to one car but that's not in the cards at the moment. Maybe when we eventually do that a more premium bike will be a consideration.

What Daniel Sturridge said is for the most part correct. However I can't escape the thought of seeing Endo benching. If he's not yet ready for minutes, why was he on the bench? If he is ready, why wasn't he deployed when it seemed we might be losing the game? When Mac Allister came on (although he has played the MD position uncomfortably in the past) he was deployed to replace Wirtz as a deeper midfielder to provide at least some containment, but that's not a DM.

@h3rald Standard HTML provides sufficient means to create accessible pages, but it also provides sufficient means to break accessibility. So standard HTML is neither the problem nor the solution.

Your observation that making a page accessible takes a lot of effort is much more relevant. Why is this so? Specific obstacles, or just lack of established good practices? What would it take to reduce the effort, and thus encourage more people to do it?

@yetiinabox And then there is the idea that Arvind Narayanan is pushing that "AI" (I think he means LLMs?) is "normal technology". I understand this to be pushback against the idea that it's magical/revolutionary, but I also don't think we should be normalizing the ubiquitous use of synthetic text, let alone the surveillance infrastructure it is built on.

@yetiinabox The only other things that come mind immediately are bad comparisons to railroads (after the railroad bubble burst, we still had the infra that had been built; data centers don't have that kind of staying power). This idea comes from, inter alia, Matt Scherer:

They Rebuilt After Texas’ Devastating Floods. Then Their Home Flooded Again.
---

Research shows more flood deaths occur in Texas than in any other state. But state lawmakers have cleared the way for residents to stay in risky places, even after flooding killed at least 119 people in Kerr County last summer.

@idzie I just got a linen robe. It’s all ready become one of my favorite items of clothes.

Beyond "buy a cheap used desktop and install Linux", what would be needed? (Asking sincerely; this overlaps with my interests and even a little bit with code I'm working on right now.)
