The big literary discourse on twitter right now is whether The Hobbit—a children’s book that won children’s lit awards and was literally written for the author’s children—is appropriate reading for children or in fact such a difficult book most adults can’t “get their head around” it.

My expert football comment is that the teams should return home

IMO long time contributors/experts using models to generate Haskell say something about the language that I don’t like

I’m reading @emilyrcwilson.bsky.social’s translation of the Odyssey for the second time because I heard a famous director made a movie and I’m a snob getting ready to trash it. And I’m having a blast. Probably because in these 8 years I’ve had more godlike experiences

Help I need more music

So how do you stop obsession over a guy that pretty clear said nothing serious huh

This narrative during Pride month was absolutely intentional. The corporate media is fully in for fascism and desperate for you to agree.

No dates in Scandinavia, where shall I go…

But I get it, believing that a language model is some kind of new entity that will save us once it gets better in just a few years is a better place to be than acknowledging that a heat wave will kill us

This is a true story. The woman pictured above, Évelyne Dhéliat, has probably done more to raise public awareness about global warming in France with this one stunt than many governments and medias. ps: the map created in 2014 depicted August 2050—not even June (2026).

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

This is how therapy feels youtu.be/PZYSiWHW8V0

Never imagined I would be living in a world where you have to scan your passport to use software

Da jeg flyttet til Norge, dro jeg til banken for å bekrefte identiteten min. Hvorfor må jeg gjøre det igjen i BankID-appen?

@adamgordonbell.bsky.social hey! Loved your last two episodes on AI. One comment though regarding the conclusion of the lateste: people didn’t stop playing chess or go because computers are better at it, and I think you see the same phenomena with programmers hating LLMs

I hate cleaning the shower, showers should clean themselves, while we shower. Take your la gauge models, give me the self cleaning shower

I was supposed to be cleaning the apartment but I’m having such a great time watching this. A colleague brought the news all excited and I immediately called it bullshit. I’m not a physicist and of course I know nothing about super conductivity, but it strongly smelled of bullshit

Using Claude Code to try to come up with a programmatic way to replace #CoreData .xcmappingmodel files. So far unsuccessful ☹️ Please ping me if you know how to, or if it’s imposible for some reason

The world is fucking sick and we aren’t even ashamed

I’m not going to subscribe to your newsletter because you open a modal on top of the very content I’m reading, but I’m going to get mad. Put the fucking form in the footer of the page. And a link to a web feed, because I’m not going to subscribe to your newsletter regardless

Your programmers were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should #Neovim

I swear I wanna play more video games but if I did so I wouldn’t have time to go nuts out of anxiety

Setting aside for a second the question of this being possible: what a nightmare

Looks like I finally found a #Neovim plug-in for working with GitHub pull requests that’s simple enough to be usable so I can avoid that fucking website

The menopause fucking scares me

They have protein we are good‼️

@wikipedia.org fuck no 😩

Am I the only one who hated Pi by Aronofsky?

I’m loving this optimistic take #literature www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The future I wanted: nuclear and GMOs. The future I got: people chatting with computers as if they were alive

The genie isn’t out of the bottle, it’s a lamp you know? Even when it looks like a teapot

According to Hegel, "Cruel Angel's Thesis" implies the existence of "Cruel Angel's Antithesis" and, ultimately, "Cruel Angel's Synthesis"

I think I just came up with a use case for language models that I haven’t seen discussed at all which strengthen my impression that vibe coders don’t know what they have in front of them

Wondering if people will ever stop conflating capitalism and markets

I finally watched Barbara Liskov’s Turing Lecture, years after @symbo1ics.bsky.social recommended it to me on Twitter, probably after I ranted about Haskellers being angered by too many hidden details

Age verification in Chile escalated really quickly: the government proposal is to enforce it through the same system we use to log in into public services. Not fascist at all

Put the CEOs in Trump’s cage and see what happens

People has such a weird notion of productivity these days

Midgar in real life.

This future is fucking horrible www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Oh look, the computer assholes are doing their crap again

`use`ful animation or something like that

Descartes came up with dualism because he couldn’t accept that human beings are just a more complex clockwork. Wondering what kind of creative unhinged reaction we will get now that a bunch of people is convinced that human beings are just language models with a body

For people using AI in commercial game development: I'd be interested in hearing the best arguments as to why you think people should pay for the resulting game instead of pirating it. Concisely, if you pirated the inputs, why shouldn't they pirate the output?

Please Use AI

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital
