I live in the contentious world of a manager who is so ineffective, that he literally contradicts everything the lead developer on the project says, and then counters My senior cloudops engineers that they are "wrong" without understanding what wrong is........

oh, and he called IaC stupid and useless.

Thanks Popeye! I'm sorry you had boat troubles, but you suck!

This US island is home to flora found nowhere else. Now, a #wildfire threatens #extinction: ‘watching with trepidation’

Firefighters are racing to douse flames on #SantaRosa Island as experts express concern for survival of its unique habitat

"A 67-year-old sailor crashed his boat into the rocks on the island’s shore last week, according to the US Coast Guard. The man fired at least two flares in order to catch the attention of passing vessels, prompting speculation that the shots first set the blaze. Coast Guard officers rescued the man, who did not appear to suffer any injuries.

"Footage obtained by SFGate, however, showed a burning sailboat on the shore of Santa Rosa Island – presumably the same boat crashed by the marooned sailor. It was unclear whether the boat exploded on its own or the sailor set fire to it."

Yes yes yes!!! 🙏🏻 I wish I could boost boost boost this multiple times!: “… "asking" the LLM to explain "why" "it" did a thing is thrice-divorced from reality:

“It cannot have a why;
It cannot have a self to have motivations;
And the LLM you ask is not the one that did it, but is a new instance reading from its predecessors notes.

“Treating it as tho it is an entity with continuity of existence is fucking delusional and I am fucking sick of pandering to this horseshit.

Touch some grass and get a fucking therapist.”

What were the motivations of the PERSONS involved in this stupidity and why do so many PEOPLE prefer to argue about the LLM rather than examine the stupidity? (Crudely stated but I hope clear)

Janet Mills vetoes #Maine #DataCenter ban

by Ethan Andrews, April 24, 2026

"Gov. Janet Mills on Friday vetoed a bill that would have created a temporary statewide ban on large #DataCenters.

"The bill passed by the Maine Legislature earlier this month would enact an 18-month moratorium on new data centers that use more than 20 #megawatts of power.

"It would have made Maine the first state in the country to enact such a ban on the controversial facilities, which support #CloudComputing and artificial intelligence at the cost of large amounts of electricity and #water."

Um, anyone who willingly uses #PFAS-laden #SkiWax these days should be forced to eat it! After all, all the critters exposed to the wax will end up consuming it. Fairs fair! You use it, you eat it!

The #Olympics just saw its first ‘forever chemical’ disqualifications

Waxes containing #PFAS are banned at the Milan-Cortina Games. Three athletes already have been disqualified for using them

Tik Root, Feb 12, 2026

"Heading into the Milan-Cortina #2026Olympics, skiers and snowboarders were already adjusting to a ban on #fluorinated waxes long prized for making their equipment faster. This week, the #WinterGames saw their first enforcement of that rule, which is aimed at protecting public health and the #environment.

" 'South Korean cross-country skiers #HanDasom and #LeeEuiJin were disqualified from the women’s sprint event on Tuesday. That came one day after Japanese snowboarder #ShibaMasaki was disqualified from the men’s parallel giant slalom. In all three cases, routine testing found banned compounds on their equipment.

"For decades, elite snow sports athletes have relied on waxes with #fluorocarbons that are exceptional at repelling water and dirt. Former U.S. cross-country racer Nathan Schultz told Grist the so-called '#fluoro' waxes provide a 'really ridiculous speed advantage,' especially in warmer conditions like those experienced at these Games.

"But these waxes also contained PFAS, short for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. This class of 15,000 so-called 'forever chemicals' are notorious for never breaking down. Studies have linked exposure to PFAS to #ThyroidDisease, developmental problems, and #cancer, and research has found elevated levels in ski technicians who regularly handled the waxes. PFAS have also been detected in #soil and #water near ski venues, including wells drawing from aquifers in #ParkCityUtah, suggesting broader #environmental #contamination."

Former U.S. cross-country racer Nathan Schultz told Grist the so-called '#fluoro' waxes provide a 'really ridiculous speed advantage,' especially in warmer conditions like those experienced at these Games.

"But these waxes also contained PFAS, short for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. This class of 15,000 so-called 'forever chemicals' are notorious for never breaking down. Studies have linked exposure to PFAS to #ThyroidDisease, developmental problems, and #cancer, and research has found elevated levels in ski technicians who regularly handled the waxes. PFAS have also been detected in #soil and #water near ski venues, including wells drawing from aquifers in #ParkCityUtah, suggesting broader #environmental #contamination."

Um, anyone who willingly uses #PFAS-laden #SkiWax these days should be forced to eat it! After all, all the critters exposed to the wax will end up consuming it. Fairs fair! You use it, you eat it!

The #Olympics just saw its first ‘forever chemical’ disqualifications

Waxes containing #PFAS are banned at the Milan-Cortina Games. Three athletes already have been disqualified for using them

Tik Root, Feb 12, 2026

"Heading into the Milan-Cortina #2026Olympics, skiers and snowboarders were already adjusting to a ban on #fluorinated waxes long prized for making their equipment faster. This week, the #WinterGames saw their first enforcement of that rule, which is aimed at protecting public health and the #environment.

" 'South Korean cross-country skiers #HanDasom and #LeeEuiJin were disqualified from the women’s sprint event on Tuesday. That came one day after Japanese snowboarder #ShibaMasaki was disqualified from the men’s parallel giant slalom. In all three cases, routine testing found banned compounds on their equipment.

"For decades, elite snow sports athletes have relied on waxes with #fluorocarbons that are exceptional at repelling water and dirt. Former U.S. cross-country racer Nathan Schultz told Grist the so-called '#fluoro' waxes provide a 'really ridiculous speed advantage,' especially in warmer conditions like those experienced at these Games.
