I Wasted a Day on My AI's Bad Idea, And It Was Worth It
It started with a YouTube tab open. I was watching the Pragmatic Engineer interview with Kent Beck, and something he said I agreed with: Test driven development (TDD) is a “superpower” when working with AI agents. AI agents can (and do!) introduce regressions. An easy way to ensure this does not happen is to have unit tests for the codebase. Kent Beck - Pragmatic Engineer Podcast I see this time and time again in my own use of AI coding agents.
Which speeds up development more: AI Coding Agents or Pair Programming?
AI is transforming software engineering, but how much does it really speed up development? Big tech companies claim that AI can boost code output by 30% or more. But does that mean teams are actually 30% more efficient? Are features reaching customers 30% faster? Let's dig in and find out. With my knowledge of queue theory and the theory of constraints made me skeptical. Sure, developers might code faster with AI, but what about bottlenecks elsewhere in the pipeline?

The Environmental Perspective: U.S. Supreme Court Overturns Chevron in Landmark Decision and Limits Federal Agency Powers
In a much anticipated, landmark decision in Loper Bright Enterprises et al. v. Raimondo, the U.S. Supreme Court on June 28, 2024, overruled Chevron U.S.A. Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U.S. 837 (1984). Going forward, in reviewing the legality of federal agency rulemaking, federal courts are no longer required to defer to “permissible” agency interpretations of federal statutes when the statute is ambiguous, silent, or leaves a gap.

A former undecided voter
To the editor: When CNN goes looking to interview your home state senator because she’s always the swing vote on important legislation, that tells everyone in that state that you can’t count on that senator. And that’s what we have with Lisa Murkowski. She’s the darling of the Washington, D.C., elites and the national corporate media because she’s always the focus of speculations: Which way will she vote?
Fired for Refusing to Participate in a COVID Dilemma

COVID19: What Japan Failed to Learn from Fukushima
Observing the response to the COVID-19 from Tokyo throughout March and April, one can’t help but be reminded of the time around the triple meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant. As in those days, rumors have swept through social media, such as the idea that people might protect themselves against the virus by microwaving face masks or using vodka as hand sanitizer.

The orchestra has played at the Vanguard every Monday night since 1966 and is a New York City tradition. New York has long been a city known for jazz. What's less known is how kid- and family-friendly jazz performances can be.

Bridge Loans Ease The Transition Between Homes - At A Cost
DenisTangneyJr/Getty Images They can save the day for homebuyers in a pinch, but people looking for a “bridge loan” to span the gap between the sale of an old home and the purchase of a new one should ask if the cost is worth it. Experts say it almost never is, and people would be better off staying put until they’ve unloaded their first residence. If that’s impossible, they warn, be prepared to shoulder a heavy burden.
Debate team mid-way through season
This past Friday, the Lennox Speech and Debate team participated at the Brookings Bell tournament. This tournament usually marks the mid-way point of the debate season. So far, the team shows great potential from an extremely young squad. This year, the team currently has only two seniors that are returning to the squad and they have seen limited competition. That has put a lot of focus on the sophomore and freshman debaters.
Week Seven Oakland Raiders Takeaways
What a test the Oakland Raiders passed. As soon as they racked up their fourth loss of the season to the Los Angeles Chargers, the Raiders had to move into desperation mode. Their Thursday Night Football matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs was an extremely important challenge to overcome. The Raiders were playing against the team that has been giving their team and quarterback the most trouble for the last three years.
Week Four Oakland Raiders Keys to Victory
The Oakland Raiders had an extremely disappointing third week after beating the Tennessee Titans and New York Jets in the first two games. The Raiders were handled by the Washington Redskins on Sunday Night Football in every way possible and face a better team in week four. The Oakland Raiders keys to victory against the Denver Broncos bring them back to the basics. Khalil Mack is back in Denver and his matchup looks very favorable.
Week Six Oakland Raiders Keys to Victory
Every game is a “must-win”. However, with the NFL season in week six, the Oakland Raiders must focus on significant keys to victory if they don’t want to end up with a 2-4 record. After they play the Los Angeles Chargers, the Raiders schedule features the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs twice, the New England Patriots , the Denver Broncos, Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles. Four of those six matchups will be prime-time games.
Oakland Raiders Overreactions
Two weeks, two games into the season and the Oakland Raiders are meeting their expectations in many places, and exceeding them in even more spots. The overreactions from their toughness and scary playmaking are interesting but justified. The Raiders transition from dumpster fire to Super Bowl contender is nearly complete. The Oakland Raiders didn’t add any immediate game changing defensive personnel to their team through free agency.

In its first season, one Dallas Real Housewife and her husband raised a few eyebrows for what appeared on the surface to be a slightly, well, uneven marriage.

This couple is still happily married, even though not all of Stephanie's relationships seem to have survived that year.
Indianapolis Colts Future is Tied to Luck
The 2017 season for the Indianapolis Colts has been fairly predictable. Andrew Luck was not going to play a snap this season, and that decision was made official shortly after their record fell to 2-6. It would not be surprising if general manager Chris Ballard made the decision to sit Luck for the year before he was even hired. Ballard knows the future of the Indianapolis Colts is in Luck’s hands, and Ballard has to make the right moves to protect the number one pick of the 2012 NFL Draft.

Solution or solid - it doesn't matter: Visible light-induced CO release reactivity of zinc flavonolato complexes
Two types of zinc flavonolato complexes ([(6-Ph2TPA)Zn(flavonolato)]ClO4 and Zn(flavonolato)2) of four extended flavonols have been prepared, characterized, and evaluated for visible light-induced CO release reactivity. Zinc coordination of each flavonolato anion results in a red-shift of the lowest energy absorption feature and in some cases enhanced molar absorptivity relative to the free flavonol.
