The AI.gov repository and staging site vanished when we asked questions, but don’t worry – we captured backups
Only silver lining right now is these idiots might just be too stupid to pull off creating their evil empire.
This reminds me of an interview with a Ukrainian soldier, who said of the Russians “we are lucky they are so fucking stupid”. If only that translated into less air superiority by Russia, because that’s where Ukraine struggles.
Second term same as the first?
That’s actually why I’d say the GOP is the “lesser evil” compared to Dems, because they ultimately want the same thing but the Dems are competent enough to pull it off without people noticing.
For example, everyone’s rightly going after Trump’s deportation schemes, but very few of them realize Trump is still isn’t keeping up with Biden’s deportation numbers. So the Dems end up being better fascists by doing it quietly.
Project 2025 is the lesser evil? Compared to?
Compared to Dems doing the same thing covertly. As I explained in the comment you’re replying to.
DB_PASS=“postgres” 😬😬😬
so, uh… can you ELI5 this for those of us that don’t know anything?
It’s like having your password set to “password”
The type of database they are using is called “postgres”, which is also it’s password.
I will assume this is just the password they use in development. But they should probably be using pglite.
Postgres, SQLite, etc are tools for database management, things like user data, application data and so on are collected here.
Take Reddit’s Karma system or Upvotes/Downvotes for example, they’re stored in a database and however Reddit wants to utilize that data Postgres makes it easy to call upon it.
I’m sure others can give more detailed responses, I’m typing this out in a rush.
Interesting that you chose Reddit as an example. They have a fascinating origin story with respect to data mart. Early Reddit had just two tables: Thing and Data, where Thing was metadata about types and Data was a three column table with: type, id, and value.
Wrap your head around that. All of Reddit, two tables. A database couldn’t be less normalized (final boss of normal forms) and they did it in an rdb. So horrific it’s actually kind of cool.
Is this real lmao
I hate that all of the worst things Donald is planning are slated for July 4.
I’m out of the loop; what’s being planned for the 4th of July?
That’s the deadline Donald set for the passage of the Big Beautiful Bill as well.
I want off Mr Bone’s wild ride
Move fast and break things is not good when government is involved.
Super earth’s managed democracy was supposed to be satire…
whats wrong with managed democracy? did you see how quickly a new president was elected when the previous one perished during the invasion?
Well good luck to you guys in the US. This AI government will be extremely dangerous. An all knowing advertisement algorithm reaching deep in government data with an unsafe LLM on top? Ouch.
They are even dumber than Leslie Nielsen as American president in his parodies.
This was the feeling!!! I couldn’t put my finger on just how this entire thing felt to me, you’ve cleared the skies and allowed the light of recollection to meet my shores!
It feels like 70s-80s slapstick!
I think part of that is that it conjures up cold war era associations.
Definitely! Those “outside time and space”/“post-modern purgatory” vibes are strong nowadays. Every day feels like making busy until the storm hits.
Obligatory fuck Trump
Releasing your code and related resources is SoP.
We had a guy who fixed up no less than 20 repos in our small company cleaning up API keys that were accidentally published. This isn’t uncommon at all.
Archived backup here
fucking gross. it’s JavaScript.
Any backups of the repository itself (and not the GitHub rendering)?
