Deer day at the office!

As a kid, grape soda was always my favorite. These days, having mostly stepped away from soda, grape always seems too sweet. This Poppi stuff is perfect though. Only 30 calories and 5g of sugar: drinkpoppi.com/products/grape

Hey, so @genmon.fyi wrote this post about how Claude Code should play calming elevator muzak while it's cranking away (interconnected.org/home/2025/09...) so I wrote a little thing that does that. It might get annoying, but I like it so far. You can try it here: github.com/mikeindustri...

8x zoom. 🍊. 🔥.

The Pitt: What if we made a hospital drama but the main character was all of the blood?

Aaaaaand we are back to staring at a spot 10 feet away from the TV. 🤮

Two new pizzas from the lab tonight: Paneer Masala and Chili Peach Caramelized Onion.

Hi 👋, normal person here. I use BlueSky to post pictures of cats and get into debates about ice cream flavors.

Two episodes into The Pitt and I really wish there was a version of it with a LOT of stuff blurred out.

Pagy looks like a pretty nice, basic website builder. Usually these tools just don't hit right for some reason. Also, love the Figtree font by @erikdkennedy.bsky.social! pagy.co (h/t @densediscovery.bsky.social)

Starting to get really good with LLM-assisting coding. I have 7 windows open, all generating errors simultaneously now.

Look, I bought some peaches the other day and one of them was very visibly bruised. All it meant was that it was rapidly decomposing and filled with fruit fly larvae.

Finally a candidate I can relate to. "Mamdani was unable to pick the bar up off the rack and required full assistance on two attempted reps on the bench."

It's funny how long business models take to catch up with the tech sometimes. We built this literally *26 years ago* at Seasonticket, and then a few years later inside of ESPN, and it actually worked! /h/t: @jasonsilverstein.com

If you gave up on Dexter a few seasons ago, it’s good again.

@jonbois.bsky.social This is Jon Bois full length interactive documentary material right here.

Ben at the Zoo.

I'm consistently impressed by the sobriety of @jasmine.bsky.social's writing around AI, politics, and other things I care about. Even-handed, plainspoken, and always has me nodding along. open.substack.com/pub/jasmine/...

Required uniform for watching Singles. ✅

We need a name for the person whose avatar is left in the last 15 minutes of the Teams call recording because they didn’t know the meeting had ended.

I'm very much ok with this since it's the Patriots, but how are we still not able to produce a proportionally correct bronze statue in the year 2025?

dude, your soda and your boots rock

You know what movie needs a dark, gritty reboot? Popeye.

Showerheads, obviously. All functional and available to sample.

Over 25 years later, RSS is still the best way to stay informed about what matters with as little wasted time as possible.

I am pro protein bar arms race, but so many of these are awful. Barebells and SimplyProtein are the only two that hit the right notes for me. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/27/b...

There appear to be multiple generations of people who know all about Mike & Ikes and Hot Tamales but have never even heard of Jolly Joes. #WeUsedToHaveACountry

These British and American people in Squid Game are ruining everything.

This archeological masterpiece by @aresluna.org is so good that I wish there was a "making of" film for it. I also hope Marcin gets an email every time someone completes every single activity in the piece. As a kid growing up with MacOS, I never saw it as complex. It is! aresluna.org/frame-of-pre...

A nice ode to the Commodore 64, the first computer I ever used heavily. A great reminder that games were such an important part of this machine. It was like an Atari for people who also liked to make stuff. theprogressivecio.com/the-commodor...

How to keep a clean desktop if you're messy: Just throw everything in there. You'll never actually need to organize it. Trust me.

Improving health and science outcomes is one of the things I’m most excited about inside of Microsoft AI right now. If you’re a Product Designer in the London area interested in shipping high-craft, society-positive work quickly, hit me up.

Grape Nuts (holding me back): Whoa whoa whoa, hey man, just let it go! This asshole isn't worth it!

This evening in the pizza lab: “Purple Sunrise” Okinawan sweet potato, goat cheese, grape tomatoes, sumac, and maple syrup. 🤌

Feature idea for AirPods: the case should beep for a few seconds if you close it and only one Pod is charging. Seems like your phone could receive an alert as well.

The wait is over. You can squeeze coffee out of a tube onto your toast now. shop.uncrate.com/products/non...

Well this is cool. A haptic trailer for Apple’s new F1 movie. Watch it on your phone and feel the rev of the engine in your hands. 🙌 tv.apple.com/us/clip/feel...

Whenever I order something Amazon Same Day, I always picture the warehouse person picking up my $20 bird netting or whatever and shaking their head in a mix of bewilderment and contempt.

Well this is cool... a Lomo camera in the style of an SX-70! huckberry.com/store/lomogr...

Never been the world’s biggest kiwi fan but these ruby red ones are amazing. Kind of like a much better fig. Can eat the whole thing, skin on.

Cool, cool. 😬 nealstephenson.substack.com/p/remarks-on...

Makes sense. WaPo has completely dropped on the face of the earth for me. I can’t remember the last time I visited or even saw a link to a story there.

Eliminate shoelaces from your life entirely. And switch to fruit-flavored toothpaste.
