The Chinese AI is actually just a guy in a room following instructions from a book. He doesn’t even speak Chinese.

My wife’s best friend asked me if I wanted anything from Japan. I said “if you swing by a store called @hareruya-media.bsky.social pick me up a booster of foundations.” Was not expecting this!!!

After nearly three decades, a Minnesota summer camp for kids with HIV/AIDS is closing and up for sale... because retroviral drugs are so effective that there aren't enough campers. Science works, y'all. www.startribune.com/closure-of-n...

Ms Krabappel and Principal Skinner were in the closet flying drones over NJ and I saw one of the drones and the drone looked at me

Why can I never find a calendar I actually wa-

Powerful words from Thiel here. A real steely confidence in his eyes. Very eloquent too

The worst part of the “AI revolution” is how much effort is being poured into making it as easy as possible to use these tools without having to understand what they do or how they work.

This article hit me like a gut punch at the end. Amazing work from Oliver Whang and @nytimes.com. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/11/m...

You know your social network has made it when people are learning about breaking news stories through the timeline...

Everyone should get a paper subscription to @theonion.com. Every time it arrives, the dark drudgery of the day parts and levity reigns. Cannot recommend it strongly enough.

Imagine fucking up at your accounting job so bad they send out an NYT breaking news push notification about it: www.nytimes.com/2024/11/25/b...

I have made the decision to detach from reality completely and live in a world where Kermit the frog is my president

Asked the inimitable Dan Frazier to shadow sign my Swamp and he asked if I wanted it shadow-signed “my way or his.” Glad I went with his.

Envisioning a new kind of wife guy who says “I’m wifesexual” (as you have likely deduced the bit is it’s me)

You know how when it’s raining sometimes and you’re stuck outside and you don’t have an umbrella or a coat but you kinda have to just put your head down and brace yourself and keep going? Yeah

youtube.com/watch?v=vkcy... Rebecca Black converting ironic fans into real fans was not on my 2024 radar but here we are nonetheless

“Something comforting” by Porter Robinson is about the four noble truths of Buddhism, change my mind

The people who killed the little kids these pictures depict are all here living comfortably. They are students and office workers and dads. You can find them on LinkedIn and Facebook just like regular people. www.newyorker.com/podcast/in-t...

"The piece by The Washington Post’s Glenn Kessler stood out. He did a “spot check” of child services agencies in Ohio and wrote that “none of the officials we reached were aware of such a case in their areas.” The impression was clear, that he was doing something local journalists in Ohio hadn’t...

At 99 Ranch, the magic of 2017-era weird twitter slang is alive and kicking, my good Binch.
