We need more good faith debate on the topic of state vs federal government—-especially when it comes to public resources. I’m torn on states rights to manage their pressing issues. But I’m adamant on public lands staying public (though it seems clear we’re losing).
I can think of zero arguments which might persuade my house representatives in NY to care to stick their necks out on public lands and resources when the economy, transportation, mass deportation and war spending are priorities.
I’ve been here and I’ll say I’d rather lose in logical argument, then win through lies. It’s so corrosive and people who know you either know this about you or will learn it. Turn back now while there’s still a chance.
You have good timing. Earlier today we announced an agent skill that drops Claude into a running marimo notebook session, allowing it to run code in the marimo kernel (read variables, test logic, get feedback when errors like multiple definitions are hit, add and remove cells, manipulate UI elements ...):
And I’m reminded of The Dark Knight Returns (1986) graphic novel. There are grotesque parodies of talking head news anchors and even a caricature of then-president Ronald Regan. Situation all fracked up.
Seems clear to me MA is operating in his own reality bubble, and must carefully consider his intended audience. iIt seems he’s always selling.
I listened to a recent episode of the a16z podcast, and he’s talking like Steve Bannon. Only makes sense if he’s pandering to that group of business people who are following that line of politics.
Not sure I caught the author’s use case, but Markdown shines in the document space when you’re the author and user. It’s efficient and sufficient—lowest common denominator of ease of writing and formatting basic text.
And I say this while putting up with lousy Markdown rendering on a pet project (Django). Really needs a separate project which lets you massage the html to get the display looking it’s best.
