Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

by far the funniest use case for AI is “I use it for powerpoints because I hate making them and nobody looks at them” because it kinda sounds like the real workflow savings would be to stop making powerpoints

happy solstice from our family to yours

Eno diary, 19 Dec 1995: "Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided."

The lack of oversight on CalTrans makes it possible for them to tell cities that their funding is too tight to make streets that are highways safer. This is happening with San Pablo Ave repaving in El Cerrito, and because of their refusal to address safety, more people will die.

Still a few copies left so grab one while we have our 15% off sale code “Eiderdownlovesyou” eiderdownrecords.bandcamp.com/album/draw-n...

You may have missed this beautiful LP by Aux Meadows...now's your change to catch up to their sublime sounds...🤠🛸🧨 eiderdownrecords.bandcamp.com/album/draw-n...

this is gold: "I consider all AI writing supports (with the exception of simple spell and grammar checks available for free in all word-processing programs) as short-circuiting the necessary relationship between thinking, writing, and learning."

this is similar to what I've come to think of as the "reverse turing test" when people find synthetic text is "good enough" to complete a task (homework, business report, email) it doesn't mean the machine is smart. it means they were asked to produce something that didn't matter it's diagnostic

Our Aux Meadows LP made the cut on this beast of a list. Dive in. Thx @aquariumdrunkard.com !!

Aquarium Drunkard :: Year In Review 2025 aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/12/08/a... Looking back to look ahead. Our list arrives in the spirit of sharing, and we’re back with our annual Year In Review. As always the following is unranked and unruly. Let it blurb.

RICH PEOPLE NEVER EVER LEAVE WHERE THEY WANT TO LIVE IF THEIR TAXES INCREASE FOR THE OBVIOUS REASON THAT THEY CAN EASILY AFFORD IT

Or better yet: make GenAI about an assault on civics. Because if you are selling a product that necessarily attempts to con one person into believing they are engaging with another person when they are not, you’re not just ruining education. You’re dismantling society’s foundations in social trust.

Fresh Aux Meadows t-shirts in brown (S, XL, 2XL) or black (M, L). Shirts come with bonus cassette "Live at Redwood Records," featuring songs from every album plus some of the covers that showed up on "Lagniappe Sessions." $25 for both, only 3 tapes left. auxmeadows.bandcamp.com/merch/flower...

If “AI” did the thing, organizations would be bragging about the outcomes instead of jawing endlessly about the tools.

10) Aux Meadows, “Permanent (for now)”: Every choice in an Aux Meadows track feels consequential, the beat here is conspicuous and so is the way the band slides into song with it, but maybe the band is in the moment and the songs are blessed for it. auxmeadows.bandcamp.com/album/draw-n...

Ex-official explained this in a way that will stick with me forever: Within fire departments, the EMTs are overworked and underpaid and don’t have time to advocate for policy. The fire chiefs, on the other hand, have a lot more time on their hands. So fire response, not medical, dictates policy.

The legal, media, and academic institutions capitulating to an authoritarian ordering payments for favorable treatment are damning themselves to irrelevance. They are destroying their institutions. They will be — and should be — shunned for failing in their most basic purposes for existing.

Waymo privatized another public street: Chanel approaching 4th, San Francisco Possibly queued for a Billie Eilish show at Chase Center ~half mile away. The light rail train on 4th seen passing in front of this roboherd has more passenger capacity than all of them combined. OP: .tiktok.renaspam18

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

It remains insane to me that DOGE was treated at the time as an impressive shock and awe accomplishment - “you can’t deny he’s getting stuff done!” - and then instantly memory holed by the press once if became clear it was a total failure by every possible standard including Musk’s own

Huge thanks to @bcsalmon.bsky.social for putting Josh Martin's " Western Mind" album on Bandcamp's Best Country Music of November. Very thankful for folks who spread the word on this beautiful album 🙏 daily.bandcamp.com/best-country...

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other. Shared by @gizmodo.com: buff.ly/yAAHtHq

ChatGPT’s signature writing style is everywhere now, and I hate it. It reminds me of when we tried mixing all the beverages at the soda fountain in middle school. We didn’t actually create the perfect drink, we just made a cloying monstrosity that lost everything good about its constituent parts.

“As pickups transitioned from farm/ranch workhorses to lifestyle vehicles, their design shifted accordingly: Cabs expanded to accommodate more passengers, while beds shrank. The first generation of F-150s were 36% cab & 64% bed by length. By 2021, the ratio had flipped. www.axios.com/local/housto...

The Democrats are in a similar position to Labour before they got in. It is a vote against. Nothing wrong with it. But if you don’t move quickly in power, you’re screwed.

Like it or not this technology is here to stay and if you don’t use it you’ll fall behind in your industry

Love this so much. 💜

Close Telegraph to cars immediately! Berkeley voted years ago to close it by rebuilding the street, but it can be closed to cars immediately with plastic posts and signs Safety can't wait any longer

Again, if they can learn from Mamdani, it's stay on message. If Rufo says Democrats want to teach homosexuality manuals, the response is not 500 words about sensitivity and so forth. It's, "I won't dignify that. I'm busy fighting for equal rights, equal protection, and money in your pocket."

I like how full text search of every book and human thought ever was a SOLVED PROBLEM in 2001, and now dicks at search engines and my own phone – a piece of silicon faster to respond than God was ever imagined in scripture – prevent it from working, _as a retroactive infantilizing design choice_.

Computers were a skill. They were taught in classrooms as a skill. Skills give you power over your tools because you work them as an expert and that is leverage to multiply externally. And then computers became an A/B tested telemetry-based advertising conduit to brains for SaaS recurring revenue.

"Starting this year the so-called 'media traffic apocalypse' caused by Google's pivot to AI search has cut our ad revenue by 70%. Prior to that, Facebook and X's deprioritization of links hurt too, but I can't downplay the brutal impact of AI Overview."
