So the Canadian government introduced a tax change that applies retroactively to December *1990*, am I reading this right? https://nationalmagazine.ca/en-ca/articles/cba-influence/submissions/2023/taxes-should-not-be-retroactive

Resigned from my role at CTG today to spend more time with family. My tribe mates sent me off with some thoughtful parting gifts!

The collective buzz around MCP feels like a collective embrace of the idea that AI is hitting a wall—that these things won’t be smart enough, for the foreseeable future, to interact agentically with the world without relying on dumbed-down APIs.

Best performing OpenAI models seem absent in this benchmark, ie the o3 ones?

Think Deep Research could be great at tech support. My Apple TV was sometimes arbitrarily stuttering. This kind of thing is super annoying to solve because all you've got are hundreds of forum posts by people who's problem may or may not be the same, with answers from people who are just guessing, and content mill websites that suggest you turn it on/off again. Deep Research gave me a list of like 4 things to try, and I think it actually fixed it!

I frequently feel like I want to branch out a conversation into multiple directions, and suspect that it'd get better results if I went back to replace an earlier message with a different prompt. Or maybe this is just cargo culting it. Would be interesting to see visually when stuff actually drops out of the context window.

obvious feature request: a voice assistant should match the volume of the speaker; it's late at night, and I speak in a low voice, don't wake the whole house.

The civil service isn’t the presidents play thing. It /is/ the executive branch. There is a century of Supreme Court rulings and laws passed by Congress that protect the civil service from political influence.

I briefly tried it built a custom quirk for this device, but it's no fun at all.

So you've got thousands of device identifiers like _TZE200_awnadkan _TZE200_3towulqd ... Which are sometimes the same, and sometimes just slightly different in their features.
