My wife discovered that we have a mulberry tree overhanging our backyard and I am STOKED.

TFW you get a seat upgrade on a work trip you really aren’t into.

Still got it... Fully redesigned joelgoodman.co, just relaunched the newsletter subscription via Loops, built with @11ty.dev, all on Bunny CDN.

Shame about the Arsenal 🍼

So... I ended up taking this podcast website concept I've been working on and applied it to my 11ty-based personal site. I kinda love it. joelgoodman.co

I've been sleeping horribly the past two nights.

So, did hiring the abuser apologist save our season? No? Oh.

Stoked to add another person to the 'ol blogroll. If you want to join in, let me know, and I can send you the Claude plugin I built for this silly project. joelgoodman.co/listening

Just realizing how much Ben Affleck looks like Kenny Loggins in Argo. Bet he’s more Michael McDonald these days.

I think that claiming that you never wanted to downplay the issue of violence against women needs a bit more to back it up when you have signed two players credibly accused of it and made out that one of them was the actual victim on multiple occasions

Official statement re: Dan Bongino

Yeah I won’t be spending my time or money on Spurs while RDZ is manager. That’s a bridge too far.

Sunday bake. 100% whole wheat milled at home. - 60% Stardust - 40% Rouge de Bordeaux - 80%+ hydro. Weird score I’ll probably not do again. #bakehat

If you see this, post a concert photo you took

happy to have a small part/quote in this hugely important conversation. ai is just the most recent shiny object the neoliberal university is using to gut higher ed’s mission as a social, public good. cutting educators and researchers is not the way 👎🏻 www.insidehighered.com/news/tech-in...

Memories.

I was playing around with Last.fm data analysis. Hooked up my scrobble and Discogs data to an LLM and did some analysis. Then did some autobiographical tagging across them. Built a thing. Then @ronbronson.com one-upped me. So I improved it... joelgoodman.co/timeline/

it's not that LLMs have no utility, I think that's an extremely silly claim to make, it's that their utility is limited right now and you have to understand the constraints and weaknesses. instead it feels like the most enthusiastic LLM users are just dull and lazy and lacking shame and standards

I really need the new Siri to understand these scam loan underwriting calls are spam and always block them. Or I need to get a new number.

FA on this delayed Southwest flight is playing Fleetwood Mac. That’s a good travel omen.

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

NO NO NO YOU DON’T GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL tell everyone you know www.freetaxusa.com

The United States killed all these children last Saturday. 170 of them. Every. Single. One.

I hate flying Southwest.

No discussion of tech media can get past this basic traffic fact: in the AI world, Google and social no longer refer traffic, which means that the vast majority of readers just never find you in the first place. Analysis: growtika.com/blog/tech-m...

How weird is it that Star Trek, one of the most progressive television shows ever written, is controlled by a network and studio staunchly opposed to its core messages?

Who has the worst account management UX, and why is it Conde Nast? I really want to continue subscribing to @wired.com but CN's awful platform and anti-consumer UX patterns make it really difficult for me. The amount of time it's taken to change my address after moving is ludicrous.

#OPENAI Sam Altman on CNBC on their huge new $110B investment: "This only makes sense if new revenue flows into the AI eco system. If people are NOT WILLING TO PAY for the services that we & others offer-then the whole thing doesn't work." Only 5% of ChatGPT users PAY FOR IT. Good talk. #FinSky

Decided to make a Youtube playlist of podcast, conference, and webstreams I've appeared on... some of these are _vintage_ youtube.com/playlist?lis...

This second Ange interview on The Overlap is so good. Spurs made such a huge mistake getting rid of him. And everyone supporter who wanted him out should feel like a mug.

Spurs' great captain, Danny Blanchflower, born 100 yrs ago today. Tonight, against Newcastle, we'd do well to recall his words: "The game is about glory, it is about doing things in style and with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom". #COYS

Spurs did themselves in by loudly reminding fans about “the Tottenham way” then firing the guy who actually acted like he believed it and replacing him with a guy who acted like he couldn’t possibly care less about any of it

Hang on, but I was told Ange was one of the worst managers we’d ever had?

prof nailed it here

We are serious about getting this on TV, but that also costs money. If you want to see this on TV (maybe Fox News??), chip in any small dollar amount here: secure.actblue.com/donate/abu-b...

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”

"I think it's no surprise that a company run by a man who sat behind Trump at his inauguration, and donated to the destruction of the White House, has taken a stance that helps ICE agents retain anonymity." Scoop from @davidgilbert.bsky.social

if arteta manages to pull off this bottle it will be his absolute magnum opus

Looks like our power is out at home due to the ice 🙃

Please share. 💔

That was fun. Hopefully Frank’s last hurrah.

I am in N17

No WiFi on this flight so I’ll see y’all in London in ~8hrs. Finally.

Welp. Going to miss the match. Flight delays have us rebooked to tomorrow. Super bummed.
