Here’s a video from the same podcast as linked in my previous post where you can hear the audio too. I love this because it really lays bare how LLMs fool us - but really they’re just slotting words into linguistic patterns that we’re familiar with. Genres like a podcast or LinkedIn post.

Maybe that’s why I love Interstellar. It’s so friggin weird and I’m not sure it really hangs together and the multidimensional beings and tesseract are pretty sus and the knocking books off the bookshelf is goofy as hell but I dig it.

Going through old Mother’s Day cards over the weekend, I came across one from my daughter when she was about 12 that reads, “When I grow up I want to be as funny as you think you are.”

Our society in a nutshell:

Mellow soundtrack for driving out to Au Sauble to fly fish…

We wrapped ourselves around their cerebral cortex...

sometimes the internet is very, very good

when you get fired by idiot executives you’ve gotta go out in style

A favorite of my Dad's growing up, Chicken Paprika. This 1975 version from @joyofcooking.bsky.social leaves 1 question to answer. Noodles or Rice. Let me know your choice so I can tell Nana. 🍽️ 🍜 #FoodSky #Cooking #Recipes #RecipeOfTheDay

I love Primus’ version of this even more than the original.

That’s fake dude you have been duped by misinformation. The team didn’t even start in NY they moved there from Texas where they were originally known as the Walker Texas Rangers On Ice.

The Chicago Blackhawks are based on the movie Blackhawk Down, which I believe was a cartoon about bunny rabbits

[at the last judgment] JESUS: And the baby prisons? EVANGELICALS: to own the libs, right JESUS: And the libs, who are they EVANGELICALS: uh mostly illegal aliens. if we really hate a pretty girl we call her fatherless. some widows JESUS: Alien, fatherless, widow, got it. So you see these millstones

This is my statement against AI. I hate it. We need people behind every piece of creative that is made. I want to see the grittiness and the flaws and the human mistakes. Mostly, I want to return to a time where this happens. youtu.be/NVSVDO6QY7k?...

Jackpot.

Whether you're blasting womp rats in your T-16 or using an elegant weapon for a more civilized age, be careful with anything that could cause a spark! Warm, dry, and windy conditions today will lead to elevated fire danger for most of Wisconsin. Low chance of thunderstorms this afternoon.

Nuremberg Caucus! LFG!

Enemy Mine. Great looking movie, great cast (Dennis Quaid and Louis Gossett Jr.) great ideas, but just doesn’t gel. Ebert’s review is on point: “Here is a movie that made no compromises in its art direction, its special effects and its performances – and then compromised everything else in sight.”

Of course he means this one, not the rebranded soft rock ass playlist Spotify made. open.spotify.com/playlist/6kV...

My answer is the a late life Johnny Cash cover of Arcade Fire’s “My Body is a Cage”. I was sure it existed, but it doesn’t. I must have dreamt it.
