I can get so much done, but after just an hour or two my mental energy for the day feels almost entirely depleted

The simple truth is that I am less valuable than I used to be. It stings to be made obsolete, but it’s fun to code on the train, too. And if this technology keeps improving, then all of the people who tell me how hard it is to make a report, place an order, upgrade an app or update a record — they could get the software they deserve, too. That might be a good trade, long term.

If AI isn’t to blame for the terrible job market for young people, then what is? In nearly every sector of the economy, the pace of hiring has slowed to levels last seen shortly after the Great Recession. A job market with few hiring opportunities is especially punishing for young people entering the workforce, including those with a college degree.

Bush and Trump both came to office determined to avoid the mistaken wars of their predecessors. Nevertheless, they both embarked on military adventures fed by a hubristic belief in American power.

But while the U.S. was strong enough — and its adversaries still weak enough — to recoup much of the damage inflicted by Bush’s war, the war unfolding in Iran today will leave behind an America that will have lost much of its global power, standing and influence, destined to confront rising adversaries all on its own.

On the kernel security list we've seen a huge bump of reports. We were between 2 and 3 per week maybe two years ago, then reached probably 10 a week over the last year with the only difference being only AI slop, and now since the beginning of the year we're around 5-10 per day depending on the days (fridays and tuesdays seem the worst). Now most of these reports are correct, to the point that we had to bring in more maintainers to help us.

Overall I think we're going to see a much higher quality of software, ironically around the same level than before 2000 when the net became usable by everyone to download fixes. When the software had to be pressed to CDs or written to millions of floppies, it had to survive an amazing quantity of tests that are mostly neglected nowadays since updates are easy to distribute. But before this happens, we have to experience a huge mess that might last for a few years to come! Interesting times...

Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar met Tuesday in Beijing with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi. At the end of the meeting they published a joint peace initiative:

1. Immediate Cessation of Hostilities, with humanitarian assistance allowed to all war-affected areas.
2. Start of peace talks as soon as possible under the principle of safeguarding the independence and security of Iran and the Gulf states. All parties will commit to refraining from the use or the threat of use of force during peace talks.
3. The parties to the conflict will immediately stop attacks on important infrastructure, including energy, desalination and power facilities, and peaceful nuclear infrastructure, such as nuclear power plants.
4. The parties will allow the early and safe passage of civilian and commercial ships, and restore normal passage through the Strait as soon as possible.
5. Conclusion of an agreement for establishing a comprehensive peace framework based on the principles of the UN Charter and international law.

Based on our own research and a review of related work, we can confidently say that most domestic terrorists in the U.S. are politically on the right, and right-wing attacks account for the vast majority of fatalities from domestic terrorism.

Based on government and independent analyses, right-wing extremist violence has been responsible for the overwhelming majority of fatalities, amounting to approximately 75% to 80% of U.S. domestic terrorism deaths since 2001.

The countries with the least capacity to pay elevated prices feel it first and hardest.

The countries most exposed are those already import-dependent on fertilizer and food: South and Southeast Asia, North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, parts of the Middle East.

Iran is cementing its hold over the Strait of Hormuz, demanding vessels give up detailed information and detour into Iranian waters before being vetted by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.

From March 1 to 23, Iran exported about 1.6 million barrels a day on average, close to prewar levels

Iran is also bringing in extra income by charging transit fees of as much as US$2 million on some commercial ships crossing the strait.

Typical refactor work is using jscpd for code duplication, knip for dead code, running eslint’s react-compiler and deprecation plugins, checking if we introduced api routes that can be consolidated, maintaining my docs, breaking apart files that grew too large, adding tests and code comments for tricky parts, updating dependencies, tool upgrades, file restructuring, finding and rewriting slow tests, mentioning modern react patterns and rewriting code
