This job posting for a "vibe coding expert" has been going around social media cause of the whole vibe coding meme. But I actually read the posting, and it seems to be a startup to automate debt collection calls with AI?

The posting is looking for candidates in SF, with at least 3 years experience, who are willing to work 12 hour days. So it sounds like they're looking for 20 somethings basically. It also says that a new employees first job is to make a collection call. So I guess they have their 25 yo software engineers make debt collection calls? Does the AI even work or is this startup only 25 yo tech bros acting as debt collectors?

In 2020 I had a great pirate streaming site that showed like every possible Olympic event at the same time. (It also had a chat filled with gross misogynists but I got rid of that with my as blocker). Does anyone have something similar for this year? Or is it finally possible to watch for free on a normal service like you used to be able to on analog antenna NBC? What do people do watch the Olympics on now?

I've tried a couple of vegan cheese things, and they haven't been very good. In particular, none of them melt like animal cheese.

I'm of the school of thought that trying to replicate carnist food with your vegan products is pointless, you should make unique vegan dishes that are good on their own instead. However, I really miss delicious goodness that I can melt on top of my food.

Do any comrades have good products or ideas?

I have a cheap electric grinder which doesn't go very fine, and is also loud, and takes up too much space in my little apartment. I would love to have a hand powered grinder that's not too big, but also could grind fine enough to make a decent moka brew. Is this possible? Does anyone have any models to look at?

I was kind of sick yesterday, and while I was resting I went on a long Wikipedia journey learning about this guy. I'm fascinated. Some of the efforts he led in Chongqing seems incredible, like expropriating billionaire's stuff to fund public housing. But of course there's the big scandal, with lots of lurid details like how his wife maybe poisoned somebody.

Anybody have anything good to read about him that isn't American Wikipedia? Or hot Bo takes to share? How has the Chongqing Model influenced Chinese politics today, and was it as good as it seems? What's up with his falling out with his buddy the police chief? Did Bo's dad really commission an author to write that he was a better statesmen than Henry Kissinger (I would hope so!) and more beloved than Princess Diana?
