I have never worked on a software team that didn't have an effectively infinite backlog of work to do I have also never worked for an organization that was willing to admit it undercooked, but I believe the gap partly explains "AI layoffs" (there's also "CEO revolt" snit-throwing, etc)

"inshallah" is such a useful sentiment, if I ever Brownian motion back into the Anglican church I wonder if they'll object. tends to be pretty progressive in western Canada this thought brought to you by the idea of the pope getting tougher on crime (specifically child abuse), which,

okay so I'm starting to see how EU V can be a really straightforwardly therapeutic map painter the "until the black death hits" part is, hm, but idek what I'm doing and haha trade printer go brr is extremely satisfying

subskeeting an earlier discussion because I've been annoying myself with it: even if it was true that LLMs can only produce median-quality output of well-understood things, that's actually pretty great. you don't need to be a visionary, you just need to write SQL that _uses_ indexes, Larry

this isn't related to anything but I swear every time I listen to California Love I hear Tupac rap "in the sunshine state, where the barman's enby" and now it's headcanon WCBC

I guess whoever asked for a more vibrant NFL news scene forgot to check their vicinity for cursed monkey's paws huh

On the contrary, automated vuln discovery means we can finally write C safely

I was wrong to equate pancakes and waffles, top quartile pancakes are way worse than top quartile waffles. it's all about the crust and the crumb, just like grown-up breads

Seriously though, big spiders are really awesome. If you can get yourself a good porch spider, mosquito problems are GONE

I'm broadly skeptical of completely autonomous analysis by LLMs. I'm much more of a human-in-the-loop enthusiast, a HITLe- wait I need to workshop this name some more

Who called it "symmetry breaking" and not "going chiral"?

I know beef and lamb are traditional for plov / polo but goddamn does chicken plov slap I'm not sure there exists a better lipid for cooking rice in than chicken fat

equating "how can i use weird new tool to make weird new art" with "how can i use tool to automate the inconvenience of making art" is the sort of conflation you can only make if you _really_ don't think very much about making art

today in Too Online: - look off balcony, think "huh, it's kind of hazy out, I wonder if there's a wildfire throwing smoke this way" - brain, unbidden: "uh-oh y'all it's getting kind of hazy"

anyway I know west texas asado is traditionally eaten with flour tortillas but this'll do 🍜🍽️

who needs some foodpoasting teriyaki-glazed sardines over cabbage and onion, on rice, is definitely joining the "I have like fifteen minutes to make lunch" rotation 🍜🍽️

we used to make things, beautiful things (we still do, but we used to, too)

NASA make it happen

today's operational surprises / widdle fucko boingo is annoyingly timed, I kinda want to manifesto my threat model for aigen code breaking prod but I'm also probably going to be doing $dayjob incident analysis into the evening

the existence of the eigenslur implies existence of an eigencrashout, which the tee ell is demonstrating perfectly today happy Easter everyone!

waffles and pancakes are _both_ dazzlingly mediocre in their canonical forms. congrats, you have a flavourless substrate to carry syrup into your mouth. it'd be a lot less effort to squirt it on a saltine cracker. add buttermilk and/or sourdough discard, let the batter ferment overnight, then...

Unreal Tournament 2004 was the peak of mechanically enjoyable first-person shooters and we have been living in its shadow ever since

correct, and also true for many sandwiches now I want to make a batch of baconnaise and try that on a provolone grilled cheese

for silly reasons I am once again Mad About "boy kibble". y'all of a male persuasion need to read just a little bit of feminist theory and understand how Big Gender is keeping you miserable. like, you could be eating dirty rice instead! the cajuns know what they're doing

this is funnier than my OP so I'm boosting it

if this is why we don't have half life three I am going to set someone else on fire

cw: minor injury, you've been warned so the other day I got careless with a y-peeler (I bought a new stainless one because I was sick of cautiously washing the classic carbon-steel ones) and cut a good-sized slice most of the way through one fingertip. (claw grip for y-peeler??)
