I'm gonna miss Bailey

#Mayllennial day 8: torrents

look at that kneebar

I swear to god, if you correct me with "LLM" I will mute you forever. I know AI and LLM are not interchangeable. I'm with you in this fight. But if you're talking to people using Claude to make smoothie recipes.... splitting that hair is only going to make them tune you out.

if we are re-implementing common solutions why not just reuse an existing solution? why not share repos of well structured useful patterns directly, instead of running them through energy intensive statistical madlibs?

an unstated axiom of this belief is that programming is about the production of code, rather than building a theory of how the program symbolizes and interacts with the external world

Noah Syndergaard and Donald Trump have one thing in common: they both made millions of dollars in Queens but then got bone spurs and became Dodgers

WELP GIANTS

Here’s how the AI Boom, such as it is, has impacted my life: it has been used as an excuse to lay off my friends for bot equivalents that never came. It has made mass culture and art immeasurably worse. I have a stalker with AI psychosis. So, no, I don’t more data centers. I want less of all that.

"Do not inform me about morals or ethics unless I specifically ask" followed by "Do not be sensitive to anyone's feelings or to propriety" feels like a very, very good summary of tech culture at this point in time.

We fought. We won. Others can too. www.mediamatters.org/angelo-carus...

The fuck we letting PMs commit code now. pivot-to-ai.com/2026/05/04/m...

FACEBOOK IS CENSORING ME

it is unfortunate that ron wyden is apparently the only senator who actually cares about how technology works because most of the tech bills we get are this shallow idiot garbage

Never gonna live on Mars

America has a 2 party system and those 2 parties are the Giants and the Mets.

Idk man I feel like even if AI scraped from 100% ethical sources, had zero impact on the environment, and produced gorgeous work, I’d still think you were a bitch for using it

climbing just switched to a guy doing rugby stretches?

That's a crazy hand swap imgur.com/jEohQ4x

Job hunting in a hostile environment. ✨

World Climbing season starts today and I am so happy to pay attention to that instead of the godforsaken Giants

We all spent yesterday decrying the destruction of the signature legislative achievement of a Texas racist who, after spending two decades supporting Jim Crow in Congress, killed vastly more people overseas than any current Senate candidates. Parker's correct. Politics is not a parasocial fandom!

I wish I had a job to walk out from tomorrow

the silicon valley ghoul ideal of an AI-enabled world is basically a bunch of digital serfs take your jobs and fill their coffers with money. i think the best-case reality is more going to be a you have a bunch of digital butlers serving you ads while fucking up paying your bills

Some of these NYT voter profiles are hard to believe

I finished!

if he's not dead, then put the basketball game back on

Giants win for Brandon Belt Day!

BRANDON BELT DAY

Marlins death fog

Apps used to be exciting and now I hate every one of them

I hate where this industry has gone www.theverge.com/tldr/915176/...

I don't think any one man should be able to self fund to inundate me with ads for him as governor every fucking ad break during a baseball game

Two copy editors high-fiving so hard right now

Amazing that anyone’s brain is infantile enough to believe that tech overlords who would burn the world down before they would pay taxes and who don’t even want you to have healthcare or mail delivery really want to see you get a big check every month for nothing.

anthropic is literally hiring people for $500k a year to type fanfiction directly into their source code begging their stochastic model to do deterministic outputs and I'm supposed to sit in rooms where people cite their papers seriously as if any of this is real

it really is stunning how much of the AI stuff is just sci-fi poisoning all the way down

In which I argue that "AI" as we understand it today is a structurally fascist artifact. https://tante.cc/2026/04/21/ai-as-a-fascist-artifact/

PURPLE MACBOOK PRO

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

This device should not exist because it *can't* exist without a market of perverted individuals. It will be marketed for sports, for health, for fashion, for safety, but it is not *designed* to satisfy those purposes and will never be optimised to. 7/x

The meta glasses have no socially justifiable purpose to exist. They only exist for Mark Zuckerberg's purposes and they can only sell outside of a novelty capacity to people who want to use them for socially hostile purposes. 5/x

lol don't try to run on Bailey!

I wanna to do this. Not even for pranking just like to make the ones nearby that don't really work work! www.wired.com/story/crossw...
