  • I had ai write a python script for me that checked a directory for zip/rar files that don’t also have video files, unzip them and if it fails retry at a doubling interval. It would have taken me an hour or so, took the ai 5min+15min of me fixing it. I also had it add logging which is definitely something I wouldn’t have been arsed to add otherwise.

    It isnt very helpful at my day job writing professional code though, and I dont think someone who didn’t already know how to do it themselves could make use of it.











  • If this is a meeting for discovery, OK.

    Ostensibly, that’s why:

    The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said Roberts is speaking to cabinet about trade issues because he knows the Trump administration’s playbook.

    Roberts’s book Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America includes a foreword written by U.S. Vice-President JD Vance

    The PMO added it would be beneficial for cabinet to hear Roberts’s perspective and understand the White House’s priorities as the government prepares for the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) review next year.


  • In most countries its not mandatory just the most normal and expected thing. For instance in Canada the vast majority of people vote with their government ID (note that you can also get ID for free) but those that don’t can have someone that knows them vouch for them. The UK and Australia have similar rules.

    This is a pretty important exception that allows the homeless to vote (its hard to get ID when you don’t have a mailing address), those too old for administrative processes and those who have bad luck (say you get your wallet stolen on the way to the polling station).
