Have you ever noticed that it’s free to go to the northshore but costs money to get to New Orleans?

Yes, a midwit joke about a decision on tolls intended to prevent traffic backup in Metairie means New Orleans deserves priority over the rest of the state.

No one is traveling to Louisiana to visit Mandeville

Why should they? Mandeville isn't a tourist town.

Talking to clients and coworkers from out of state, they look at New Orleans the same way you'd look at a Caribbean vacation spot with the same dangers, except it's in the US.

That commuter traffic across the causeway gets smaller and smaller every year, yet people are still moving to the northshore (insert your favorite we're full joke).

quote:

---

People in New Orleans complain about the State exerting authority over the people of New Orleans. The rest of the State punches air that New Orleans exists at all.

---

No, just an amusing sense of self importance about the city that isn't deserved at all.

With competent leadership, it could be so much better, and that's what's frustrating, because it is a fun and historic city.

Ok, so if you don't want Vance in, who do you want in?

Microsoft has bigger issues than chasing the guy.

Looking at that blue hammer link, all they did was flag the POC signature, they're not checking for what it does, and all those pieces by themselves are working by design in windows.

Accountability is still a thing. You can’t fire AI.

Old quote from 1979 at IBM, still applies, although people have forgotten:

Sometimes I read this site and think there's too much lame trolling.

This one, though:

Is Darth Vader at the hearing?

Who's doing all that heavy breathing?

Tech Lead, we've had your typical automation, CI/CD, some AWS stuff; not bleeding edge but not stone age either.

We have gone all in on AI with Claude and Claude Code and building a process around how and when to use it, which tools to use where, how to set up the markdown files depending on who you are, etc...

It has sped things up on greenfield projects for sure. It helps on existing ones as well, but it'll send you on a wild goose chase if you're not careful.

There is definite pressure and the fear of missing out is well known.

My biggest issue is that it still has that sycophantic "personality" and tends to tell you what it thinks you want an answer to be and you have to badger it like a police detective to make sure it's not bullshitting - sorry, hallucinating, although instructions/skills can mitigate that to a point.

It's not fun when someone throws pages of an AI analysis and I have to say why it's wrong. I try to explain the context that is missing, but I feel like I'm doing that more often lately.

Call me Meatloaf, because 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

I know it isn't coming up today, but I find it hard to believe that they won't try to get it out before the session ends.

I may have not caught it, but I heard him say "we're not doing a 6-0 map." I didn't hear anything about an agreement.
