Sadia Kabeya has been England's best player by a country mile. Seeing Sophie de Goede grab her and ragdoll her five metres behind the gainline feels like the game in a nutshell.

Absolutely lost for words. Eight years of watching the Roses look borderline unbeatable just ended. This is one of the great nights in Canadian rugby history, and a huge moment for the international game.

Like, first it came for software engineering, then it came for research-level mathematics! It will come for your white-collar field too, and I'm not saying that in a triumphant tone.

I agree with Spolsky's fundamental law that "It's harder to read code than to write it" and its corollary that if you write code at the very limit of your ability, you are by definition not smart enough to review it.

I think it follows that widespread adoption of AI code generation will basically doom the software industry. I honestly don't see any way out. Human coders are already overwhelmed with the quantity (and sometimes complexity) of AI-generated code during PR/code review processes.

Ulster-Exeter shaping up to be a much more interesting game than Leinster-Toulon. Great ruck speed, love to see forwards playing scrum-half!

Ever have one of those moments of cognitive dissonance when someone you follow, who typically has reasonable, well-argued takes that always confirm your priors, is just clearly and obviously wrong?

Anthropic: "Here are the conditions under which we will offer our service in exchange for money" Gruber: "corporatocracy!" Thompson: "Amodei is not elected and not accountable to the public." "an unaccountable Amodei can unilaterally restrict what its models are used for"

Anthropic is not unilaterally restricting the actions of the US government. If the Department of Defense doesn't choose to agree to those terms, they are free to contract with one of several other AI providers. This isn't complicated!

Watching Top14 rugby for the first time (just changed streaming providers) and some guy just got sent off for the craziest head-butt I’ve ever seen. LFG

Imagine organizing your whole life around a movie whose central point you missed.

Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino "also revered Starship Troopers, Robert Heinlein's 1959 military sci-fi classic about an interstellar war between humans and alien bugs - a book his sister says he still reads to this day."

You are up to date.
