I too aspire to have an API limit and for you to either pay me more to keep working, or wait until after I've had a nap

What's a moment from your life, out of context, that's straight from a movie? I'll start - in Tokyo, looking for a quiet place to eat lunch, I sat down in a graveyard. The biggest goddamn raven I've ever seen in my goddamn life landed on a stone next to me. At her insistence, I shared.

Janey, Cornelius, and Floyd had a play date today and yes it was just as cute as you’re imagining. Just three carefree babies who will live safely in sanctuary for life. ❤️❤️❤️

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

SV tech bros have been jerking off about the idea of "flat" orgs for decades. But a flat org doesn't mean there are no hierarchies. It means the hierarchies are informal, hidden, inconsistent. Do-nothing meeting attenders appoint themselves feudal lords.

the tiniest astronaut I’ve ever painted

by this definition, aprtheid south africa — which had elections that the ruling party could at least in theory lose — was not an authoritarian state either

The thing is, this is probably happening because AI book “authors” are uploading hundreds of books and then not selling many of them because that’s not the plan.

Obviously not him but I don't think it's really anyone writing these anymore. I encourage you to ask your favorite LLM to generate an endorsement of Jim Desmond in Trump's voice it will come out almost exactly like this.

Target here. We’ve noticed a lot of our valued customers haven’t been coming around much lately. So we’re teaming up with your local police department to send the rest to jail.

There was literally a pangolin that flew combat sorties with the CIA in a dirty war in Laos that then died after drinking too much gin, so there’s at least one pangolin whose record is morally ambiguous

They say that there’s a purpose to their famous seasick lilting. An erratic pattern makes them a more annoying target for birds which are the main antagonists in their fortnight of life.

everything is so stupid

A trap of social media is pretending that you can relate to anyone and have simply chosen to not believe/do/become whatever but for real I just do not get a lot of people and why they want what they want or do the stuff they do, and bridging this gap has taken up a lot of my lifetime mental energy.

Pyret with the % operator (pyret.org/docs/latest/...) The type before the % can be checked statically or dynamically, the function in parentheses is always checked dynamically.

A type is a specification of correctness. `f :: Int -> Int` is the property `∀x ∈ Int, f(x) ∈ Int`. In most languages, the type system embeds all properties verifiable by the compiler, meaning not all "true" types are encodeable in the language. Existential properties are esp. hard to encode

i really wish "children are people and people are not property" was not a radical opinion but unfortunately it's the central question up for debate with much of politics

caffeine is perfect when you're having trouble concentrating and would rather be having trouble concentrating while vibrating

have we considered the possibility that the openly smash-and-grab long-term-consequences-be-damned mentality of the ruling class lately is because their advisors with good data have reason to believe long-term is such a different world they may as well go for it while society as we know it functions

As you may know, I have a particular thing for Martian sand ripples - anyway here's a crop from the Perseverance rover Mastcam-Z image that particularly caught my eye.

just your average Tuesday at Leland Stanford Junior University

the most Google thing ever is that they can make a taxi that drives itself incredibly well but struggles to reliably play music cast (a Google technology) from YouTube Music (a Google product)

Still thinking about this note I found in the children’s section of the public library when I worked there back in 2018. This kid tried to warn us…

yesterday in NYC, jewish voice for peace organized a protest against arms sale to israel. 90 people got detained after a traffic sit in held right in front of chuck schumer's office. as usual, chelsea manning has the coolest perp walk photos. cop's name is "anger" lmfao.

One of my favourites from polar bear guiding is 'Einsteins'. We use it on the radio to let others know where a mom and two cubs are - MC^2 :) It's not really a hobby, but it's to keep guests from getting excited too soon.

Just to give you an idea of the joke that is healthgrades and online doctor ratings in general. This guy killed multiple patients and has a 4.6. I have a 4.0.
