📍Chicago 🏳️🌈he/they🐻 Urbanism, technology, shitposting - the tripod of civilization
pinned post!
You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of our finest remaining urban centers. I thought so much of Chicago that I elected to establish my Administration here, in the Citadel so thoughtfully provided by Our Benefactors. I have been proud to call Chicago my home.

this sun-times article has a guy who tried to cheat his wife out of a bunch of stock, spent all the money, and is now in prison. I don't think he should be in jail but why do they skip over the fact that a judge ordered him to sell the shared and he didn't?

gradually getting more bullish on AI medicine stuff for this reason. doctors don’t keep up with literature, assume nothing rare ever happens, and if you have the gall to be fat in their line of sight that’s the reason for all your problems

First day out on my new Canyon bike. The 360° sensor array hums as the on-bike AI analyzes every inch of pavement. The AR helmet feels like an extension of my senses. $45k well spent, I think to myself. I roll out of the driveway. A drunk driver doing 90 down my street instantly turns me into Ragù

communities are coming to Bluesky this year. today, Bluesky is one big space. communities will be smaller spaces inside that where you can go deeper and hang out with people who care about the same stuff.

Another cyclist was just doored in front of Riley O'Neil's memorial on Halsted Street. This happened about one hour ago. The cyclist declined medical treatment from the ambulance and rode away. Unfucking real. You can see the broken car window on the driver's door.

CDOT lost the best of our team yesterday. We're heartbroken. In memory of Riley O'Neil, please refer to these bike racks as "Riley Racks". He led Chicago's bike parking program for several years. Our hearts are broken, but we want to make sure his legacy lives on 💙🚲 Please spread the word

The biohackers subreddit banned all posts about peptides and HRT because peptide companies were spamming + manipulating the sub in order to manipulate Google AI and ChatGPT answers. Very insidious industry that is drastically changing the internet

Have you, like me, spent the last 26 years worrying if the Canadian Potato Museum STILL has the display of various potato diseases with potatoes in little coffins? Stop worrying. I checked today. Still there.

came across this article where a guy is moaning about how yes, he does need a pickup truck, because he had to cart a single toilet to the dump and you wouldn't want it on the carpet. you could also do this job with a plastic tarp and a two-door mini cooper

even if you accept that a huge building boom drives down rent (which it basically never does long-term [austin had decreases for what, 2 years?]), people justifiably hate being told "you have to move because you are poor/your landlord feels like it". being forced to move is awful!

Every system that was regulated, either explicitly or implicitly, by the fact that they were effortful for humans (letters of recommendation, government filings, essays, or, as this paper finds, lawsuits) will break under a wave of AI.
