Scottish Green Party forecast to overtake Scottish Labour in Holyrood, to be 3rd biggest party after SNP and Reform, according to the Scottish Election Study.
Not mentioned in the article, but the SNP are again predicted to get no seats from the list, due to winning a disproportionately large number of constituency seats.
SNP voters choosing to vote Green on the list could utterly change the balance of Reform and Green seats.

Table of vote share and seats for each party broken down by constituency, list and total counts.

SNP: Const.: 34%, 57 seats; List: 28%, 0 seats; Total: 57 seats

Reform: Const.: 18%, 1 seat; List: 19%, 21 seats; Total: 22 seats

Greens: Const.: 11%, 4 seats; List: 16%, 12 seats; Total: 16 seats

It cannot, because the concept of the USA in the world outside its own borders very much depended on soft power, which requires trust. That trust is gone, completely, and probably irrevocably for at least a generation.
It saddens me deeply that all the value, all the good that this long-term stability …

And sure, grinding out a vibe-coded LLM horror so you can check that business box may leave you with code that’s not only especially buggy but RAM-hungry and CPU-hungry. And sure that’s expensive to deploy. But hey: your cloud spend is already preposterous, right? And high deployment costs are more predictable than high development costs…right?

There’s a lot of software out there where either (1) the users are captive users, or (2) actual outcomes don’t matter, and the important thing is to check the box, to have officially pretended to build the thing.
That’s the sort of software where development costs are especially painful for the MBAs, and where pushing the frontiers of the “fast build, low quality” quadrant for may be a killer market — even if it’s just fast and not so cheap.

Passing thought on the Claude code leak, and how messy and wasteful the code apparently is (as many of us suspected):
There’s been a lot of focus on the energy & environmental costs of running LLMs. There are also energy & environmental costs to deploying LLM-generated code.
Similarly, there’s a lot of focus on the kickbacks cloud vendors who fund AI get from LLMs renting their servers. There may be a similar kickback from computationally inefficient LLM-generated software renting their servers.

Diplomaten van de VS in Israel hielden in januari 2024 ambtsberichten tegen omdat de beschreven omstandigheden om Gaza niet 'gebalanceerd genoeg' waren.
Maar de regering Biden en de Democraten hadden al moeite hoe met Gaza om te gaan.
