Daily Pull Request contexts per developer are up 67.4%.
Work restarts, tasks that return to in-progress after moving to another stage, are up 13.8%.

The developer productivity picture that AI tools present at the individual level is one of acceleration.

@cdarwin@c.imThe modern legal landscape of gun legislation begins with
District of Columbia v. Heller in 2008,
when the Supreme Court ruled 5–4 that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms for self-defense
— overturning nearly two centuries of jurisprudence that had centered the right on the organized militia.
Fourteen years later,
New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen raised the stakes further,

@cdarwin@c.imAlabama on Wednesday asked the Supreme Court to allow it to use a congressional map favoring Republicans in this year’s elections

@cdarwin@c.imA former U.S. Marine reservist and seven others were sentenced Tuesday to decades in prison over a shooting last year that wounded a police officer during a demonstration at a Texas immigration detention center.
Prosecutors called the crime an act of terrorism and said the eight were linked to a leftist militant group, antifa.
