I can confirm that the iOS 26 spell check has been updated and is even worse now. I have never spelled duck wrong so many times in my life.

Them: “no one had pronouns in my day” A TV Character from their day:

Not to be THAT dictionary, but… It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’ It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’ It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’ It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’ It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

Dammit. I've gotta add to my project list to dump Ring and replace their devices with something else at our house. I don't have time for this shit. yro.slashdot.org/story/25/10/...

We have officially entered the season where I forget to put on a jacket. And now I’m going to be chilly all day.

hello people. i'm going to let a domain expire in a couple days. please clap.

Shaving yaks this fine Monday morning.

Why am I that person who’s seeing fall clothes advertised and can’t wait for fall? Probably because fall in Minnesota is quite amazing.

Happy 34th birthday to websites

30 seconds after reading this, I got the same scam text.

I suspect the major negative fallout of vibe coding isn’t going to be taking jobs from software developers but instead an epidemic of insecure apps that get hacked with ease

For some tech we should try turning it off and leaving it off.

My husband has informed me that I’m an old because I’m annoyed at my neighbors who are lighting off fireworks *toward* my house and I don’t want my house to go up in flames or my two year old to wake up crying.

Ok, Cursor. Whatever you say. Yes, I am 30. 😂 And yes, I was using Cursor to figure out what json.loads does because it was not behaving as I was expecting (or my input was garbage, more like it).

When I started writing this post, I did a search for "RAG is dead" and found 5+ pages of results with that title. So I set out to figure out why so many people were writing about it or if it's just click bait. Spoiler alert: it is. And RAG is not dead, but evolving. www.pinecone.io/learn/rag-20...

My morning yoga class started out as a blustery (but sticky, humid) scene from Game of Thrones and ended as a blue sky scene on a mountaintop from the Sound of Music. #MNWX

just found out minneapolis has a free ski show every thursday?????

An MIT study of 54 participants found ChatGPT users had lower brain activity, weaker memory, and less creativity than Google or unaided writers. ChatGPT users brain activity declined over time, relied on copy-paste, and couldn’t recall what they wrote. The brain is a muscle, use it or lose it.

Statement from the two children of Melissa and Mark Hortman. “Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together.”

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

This is heartbreaking. (via someone at the St. Paul rally)

I know people like to be like, "Politicians aren't your friends" but politicians, especially at state and local levels, are members of the community elected to serve. People routinely are also friends with politicians. People lost friends today as well as a colleague and it's devastating.

Here is a link to one of the big local papers: www.startribune.com

gonna caution everyone about national accounts covering the news in MN - stick to locals. already seeing lots of misinformation coming from people who do not live here

Seriously. Every chapter ends in WTF. I knew it was bad but WTF?!?

I’m reading Careless People and at the end of every chapter (every paragraph?!), I’m like “WTF?!? WTAF? Who are these people? WTF.”

✨ I’ve got a couple of extra General Admission tickets to @renderatl.com and I’d love to give them to folks who might not otherwise get a chance to go. If you’re from an underrepresented group in tech and want to be in the room or know someone who should be DM me!

Thursday is @opensourcenorth.bsky.social and @hakanson.bsky.social and I are ready for a conversation with you. We're co-presenting about how #genAI can facilitate meaningful conversations with your #architecture to gain insights, make decisions, generate diagrams, and code. Join us for #osn2025!

Devastated.

asyncio patterns paired with the Pinecone Python SDK and FastAPI can help you scale, handling higher traffic and concurrent users more predictably. 🔗 www.pinecone.io/learn/pineco... #Python #asyncio #FastAPI #Pinecone

🔍🤖 Wondering why your AI agent might need hybrid search? Traditional search forces you to choose between semantic understanding (semantic search) and keyword matching (lexical search). Each has it's strengths ⤵️
