They spin up agents, and then give them roles like commenter, and director of quality for the commenter. Although I'm unsure how the director helps since I've never seen one do actual work.

The eastern provinces and Quebec are actually over represented. That means there's even less of a chance for the west.

Saskatchewan and Manitoba are also over-represented.

BC, Alberta, and Ontario are under-represented. Ontario, for example, is about 39% of the population of the provinces, but only 36% or so of the seats.

The allocation is an imperfect formula, to be sure. I doubt it makes much of a difference in practice, except as propaganda fuel for foreign influence operations driving Alberta separatism. The degree to which most provinces are under- or over-represented is less than 1%.


> resolvable by allowing them to pass

How do they ever find out that they're wrong if you don't turn your highbeams on after they pass?


Google is the farthest down the line.

It seems crazy that AIs are doing all these impressive things yet struggles with something we teach children to do.

Not particularly. Deep Blue beat Kasparov in 97. I don't doubt that these impressive things are very very similar to that.

They've also had multiple crashes in very few miles driven.

I hope you've filled out your will.

> All spaceX has to do is keep being as innovative and industrious as it is now

SpaceX seemed to lose a big step when Musk got involved in DOGE. I don't know if key people left or what, but the pace seem to slow considerably, and the successes also seemed to come to a crashing halt.


Some principled people left when he made his big heel turn into openly promoting ethnonationalist authoritarianism.

Pretty sure some other principled people stayed behind and are using the field manual[1].

This kind of thing has happened at Meta.

This take is so exhausting, why do you refuse to do even a little bit of open-minded research or even not immediately resort to hyperbole?

Based on what? Most people moved to Starbase if you're tracking the hawthorne and redmond activity

What's better for you?

After four months of use I've had not a single hiccup or misbehavior with it, none of the sudden stalls or "beachballing" I had every so often with TB when fetching/sending despite running my own mail server inside my home network, nor any crashes (which to be fair weren't common with TB). I get the impression that the developers tread more carefully with feature updates. I perceive it as starting up and getting to fetch/process faster. I also appreciate that it's about half the size, as they provide a dedicated Arm64 bundle instead of a "universal" Arm+x86 flavor.

Because the masses don't drive every day, they bike and use the train.

what do you use as your client?

I'm not the poster you're replying to, but i did the same thing and use Purelymail (and their web interface, which i think is open-source)

it's a very cheap no-nonsense service, i recommend it


I just signed up given the low price, got it setup with K-9 POP on my phone. Gotta say that is a very simple and easy to follow setup. Compared with something like Zoho where I get lost everytime I need to navigate around.

I'm really liking this, thanks for the recommendation.


Over the years I've recommended Migadu and still do. Affordable and reliable with usage based pricing.

As for the email client I personally prefer Thunderbird on PC and FairEmail on Android.

https://migadu.com/

https://email.faircode.eu/


Fairemail is great. Better than Thunderbird and any other mail client around. Every so often I see a new mail client pop up for Android advertising that it does X better than any other client; I look at it and it's either built on top of either aosp or some other oss email client (or a rewrite of same) with X feature bolted on, often with numerous features missing. If you want a full email client, go with fairemail.

Reminder to take a look at what nontrivial OSS software you use every day that you've never paid for, and consider a donation (I recommend GitHub sponsorship as a method that currently charges no fees to either the donor or the recipient)


Also not the poster you're replying to, but I get email with ProtonVPN, which I've linked to my domain.

I'm not without my questions about them as a company, but Google are getting beyond a joke.

Full migration away is coming with next phone upgrade.


+1 for Purelymail. Most things that appear to be too good to be true are not true. Purelymail is the real deal.

I've been pretty happy on Fastmail as a custom-domain email host the last few years.

I ended up on Zoho because I wanted to be cheap. So far that's worked out well for me.
