Another important fact about me is that I collect ISA cards. I still don't believe in magic- just concepts I don't understand yet.

Now, part of what I could do is rewrite history, and redo such commits by hand ("There, that wasn't so hard, WAS IT?!"). But that screws over anyone else working on my code (not that that happens a lot.)...
Rationale is: "I cannot spend my limited bandwidth trying to vet whether find-and-replace was done with AI, or something far less destructive. I would _like_ to be able to tell the difference easily, but I cannot in some cases. And so I accept the risk that find-and-replace was done using AI. But if I find out, I'm not going to be happy."

Fellow slop haters... what do you think of this CONTRIBUTING.md? My plan is to copy it verbatim, but interested in feedback:

https://github.com/diondokter/device-driver/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

I like this, b/c it puts more eloquently my actual stance:

"If someone hypothetically contributes e.g. a glorified find-replace done with AI to my code, I'm not gonna burn the codebase and start over. However, I will probably give you a massive side-eye and not accept further contributions :D."

I'm not enjoying myself rn :D.

aibros: MCPs are the future!

MCP for me:

I'm kind of fascinated that, after the last set of "let's surveil everyone by demanding encryption backdoors" attempts failed, everyone's jumped on the "we must mandate everyone's age be granularly checked - which means some kind of tracking of who's using computers" bandwagon.

Seriously, will these fascist fucks kindly eat shit and go fuck themselves?

TIL there's a horse named after a DOS Extender :)...

Something seems off. Can't put my finger on it.

A resounding victory for trans rights in Montana, which also sets an important precedent.

EDIT: In case it wasn't clear, this precedent (that trans people are a suspect class) is only legally binding in Montana. However, I still think it's important that *any* state supreme court has set such a precedent, even if only for the social impact. That's what I meant by “important.”

Montana Supreme Court Effectively Strikes Down All of Montana’s Anti-Trans Laws in Unprecedented Ruling

In a 5-2 decision, the court upheld an injunction blocking Montana’s policies that ban gender marker changes and ruled that trans people constitute a suspect class.
