They do what they want

Hegseth dismantled most of the Pentagon’s civilian harm mitigation, or CHM, units — cutting headcount across a number of teams by roughly 90% to fewer than 20 staff members, people with direct knowledge of the matter said. Centcom’s team was reduced from 10 to 1. No CHM team member reviewed the Minab site before the strike

There it is

PieFed has a daily time limit you can set.

Like a mini leopard!

SQL is certainly a different way of thinking, unlike any other language. I can see why it’s not for everyone.

So to answer the original question - use Redis AND MongoDB. For different things.

MongoDB is your database and Redis is the thing that stops you from needing to hit up the database all the time.

Technically, it shares a lot of characteristics with databases. You can put data in there and get data out again later, sure. But it’s optimized for short term caching of data, to reduce load on a real database, reduce network requests, that kind of thing.

In programming you can often use tools in ways they were not intended for and it’ll still work but the costs of that decision might not become apparent until much later. This is one of those. Over time you’ll start to have issues with durability guarantees, complex querying and indexing, transactions and consistency, recovery after failure, backups and restoration, data growth, operational tooling, migrations and schema evolution, concurrency, debugging and observability. None of that shows up during initial development work so you won’t notice until you’re in way too deep.

Redis is not a database. If you use it like one, it won’t be long before you regret it.

It’s a bot

Ah I hadn’t twigged that they choose a cooperative instead of a multinational. Of course.

Would they have done this if the Greens hadn’t moved the overton window?

Many people will just throw up their hands and walk away but for me the only way I can accept what will happen is if I did my best (minus my handicaps, like living under capitalism, personal issues, etc etc) to stop it.

Yeah. And the reason they’re in charge is because we don’t have the requisite social consciousness / organisation / structure to put better people there. Changing culture and political systems takes a long time, which we don’t have.

It is very hard to live with.

Not all problems are solvable (this one is technically solvable but politically, it isn’t) and we need to accept whatever outcomes there are, despite our best efforts.

Oram also said he believed there was a connection between the list of names who signed the 2023 petition about remote working and the eventual firings in 2025. But Cordrey questioned whether this was really the case when 141 of 154 people who signed it were not fired.

Good luck son

Yeah that’s pretty crazy but this bit is crazier - https://www.anthropic.com/threat-intelligence-report-september-2026#cyber-operations-sep-26

AI is a useful tool, for all its flaws and negative externalities.

“If you ignore the negatives for everyone else and just focus on the positives for me, it’s pretty great”

Mhmm. Right, ok.

People who want to believe Anthropics AI is powerful.
