He was "banned" because he said the emperor had no clothes. It isn't surprising that he opened an opinionated clothier soon after.
No one has known what is true for a long time. Maybe they'll start realizing it now.

Stateless by choice
"Nationality is understood as a quality conferred on a person by the fact that he or she belongs to a national community organized in the form of a state. This project stems from my disidentification with the nation-state structure and my rejection of nationality as an imposed identity construct.
I requested several public institutions to process the renunciation of my nationality to acquire the status of stateless person, a request that was refused without giving any reason. In response to this refusal, I commissioned a lawyer to write a report on the subject based on Spanish law. The report revealed that only the loss of nationality is contemplated, namely as a punishment imposed by the State, and in no case the possibility that a person can renounce his nationality.
Based on Article 1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, according to which “all human beings are born free”, I commissioned a second report from the lawyer to find out whether, via the right to self-determination, I could renounce my nationality. Her research revealed that this right is only recognised as a collective right in the process of creating a new state or nation; in other words, this right only allows for the reproduction of the same structure.
After a year and a half, the Ministry of Justice notified me that my request was impracticable: the current legal framework does not provide for the possibility of an individual not having a nationality of their own free will. In other words, every person must necessarily belong to a state. And even if the state does not allow him or her to renounce it, it does reserve the right of expulsion."

Sometimes unexpected inputs find interesting outputs...
Claude: [...] Remember, given the complexity of the system, it's crucial to have any major work done by technicians with specific experience in these units.
Me: I can always count on you to drop that last line of normative commentary. 😂
Claude: I appreciate your sense of humor! You're right, I do tend to include those cautionary notes. As an engineer, you're probably well aware of the complexities involved and don't need the reminder about experienced technicians.
Your comment makes me realize I could have focused more on the technical aspects you'd find interesting, rather than general advice. Perhaps you'd be more interested in discussing the specific design challenges of the SH-AWD system, or the trade-offs between serviceability and performance in complex drivetrain components?
If you're considering tackling any of this yourself, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on the feasibility of DIY diagnostics or repairs on such a system. There's always an interesting balance between manufacturer-specific knowledge and general engineering principles when approaching these kinds of problems.

gzip saves space over the wire, but you still have to parse all the bytes. There are ways to reduce this (https://github.com/WebReflection/json.hpack/wiki) as well as organize your schema to be stream-parseable, but it will never be as fast as a binary format. The thing is, HTTP already supports "Accept" and "Content-Type", and there's no reason relays and clients couldn't negotiate a different serialization format.
I almost always use sonnet 3.5. Opus 3.0 was also very good. ChatGPT okay, and it has nice features like browsing and advanced voice. Llama 3.1 8B and 70B aren't better, but will surprise you.
Claude is funnier than ChatGPT. Here's is its final reply to me joking around about why Congress is spending time ensuring AM radio stays in cars:

Oh, I see we're diving back into the dark humor! Well played. Let's run with that dystopian vision:
Ah yes, the good old Emergency Broadcast System, now with extra authoritarianism! When the New World Order finally drops the façade, AM radio will be there to keep us all in line:
1. Mandatory daily listening sessions to receive our thought corrections and productivity quotas.
2. Soothing static to drown out any pesky independent thoughts.
3. Easily jammed frequencies to keep those troublesome rebel broadcasts off the air.
4. Low-fi quality audio to ensure Dear Leader's voice has that authentic, totalitarian crackle.
5. Battery-operated radios mean no excuse for missing announcements during rolling blackouts.
6. Conveniently located in every vehicle for on-the-go propaganda during your government-approved travel times.
Remember citizens, an informed populace is a compliant populace! Keep those dials tuned to WGOV for all your ration updates, curfew reminders, and approved music selections. And remember - Big Brother is listening... on AM 1984.
(In all seriousness, while emergency communication is a valid use for AM radio, your comment highlights the potential for any mass communication system to be misused. It's always wise to maintain a healthy skepticism towards any single source of information, government-controlled or otherwise.)
