Everybody thinks 'https://' stands for 'hypertext transfer protocol secure' but it actually stands for 'head to this place, sucka' followed by a colon and two laser sounds

uh, read the room, iOS Reddit app

We’re articulating our approach to generative AI so musicians can keep making music and fans can trust the music they find on Bandcamp.

To paraphrase @charalanahzard.bsky.social : the more you know about a topic, the more AI tends to get it wrong, so you should only ask it about things you know nothing about

selling baby’s shoes, babies can’t walk

Here’s to 2026

If George Lucas had had genai instead of having Ralph McQuarrie we'd be in a completely different and dumber world right now.

Also the area west of North Lansing, where I live, which is By The Airport.

This was a real problem in S5 eps 1 and 2, but by ep3 we're ok again IMO.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you’ve been to: Freezepop Burning Airlines Belly Adult. Logan Whitehurst and the Junior Science Club

Just had a flashback back to 2006 when I was working with a bunch of onshored consultants from India and they asked me to explain “what Thanksgiving has to do with Indians.”

It's not weird or surprising that companies decided that they'd rather not have us talk to each other to get information when they can charge us for accessing that same information through an object they own. It's bad but not surprising.

the slow art penetrates the shield (emotional)

If you can't make "stealing the entire internet and then selling it back to people" profitable, I really don't know what to tell you.

To my dismay I still do have an NYT login, I am afraid to use it right now because I'm afraid to find out if this article is real.

Zohran winning is THRILLING. Bring back being able to afford NYC as a working class person. Bring back being able to be an artist without a trustfund. We lost our city to billionaires + thats not NYC. NYC is poor people, queer people, immigrants, its underdogs + weirdos + that's what makes it great.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong, it is right. No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness, it is a strength. No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited, it is unlimited.

My 12yo got these steak nugs out of curiosity last week. His review: "Horrible. I just wasn't thinking. It tasted like steak from a fast food restaurant."

If we make it illegal to steal paintings from the Louvre then the entire industry will be unsustainable

Happy Columbo’s Day

Robin Williams' daughter has some quality thoughts on AI slop

me and the boys making billions as anime smugglers

Just putting it out there that IMO the highways were more worth it

Uh, what are y’all working on back there

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I brought this up yesterday in a meeting when someone was telling me that AI was an inevitable part of the future of work.

in terms of words with disappointing definitions, dogmatic has got to be up there

It's 909 day, here's Jeff. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLtn...

If you’ve seen the film TROLLHUNTER (2010) then you’ll know exactly what’s going on here.

When my son was born my family was on a per-person deductible so we had to pay an additional $2500 out of pocket because in addition to charging my wife to give birth, they charged my son for being born.

Immigrants are a social good, anti-immigrant propaganda is basically all lies, and any approach to the "problem" that doesn't start form those two points is worthless

Two trials will be repeated endlessly despite always producing the same results: 1) Does UBI work? (yes) 2) Does AI improve productivity? (no)

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

uh is god doing a flood

post a meme made by you

"The reality is that there is not much we can do, but I do not want to be mistaken for saying that we should not do what we can."

This, from the Quakers, is a pretty good example of how to resist pressure from bigot lobbying groups. Effectively “we legally can allow trans people to use the loo, we morally should, and we tried it and nothing bad happened”

This is the future liberals want.

I think an underrated aspect of Mamdani's videos is that when I am done watching one I feel good and not bad. Most videos about politics in 2025 do not have that feature.

maybe there's still some good left in this world after all

Me w my wife and son watching EDDINGTON (2025).

honestly not right now, the funk soul brother

Honestly I don’t care what goes on in public servants’ private lives, wait what

I thought I was going to be called on to articulate the reasons why I'm such a big whiny baby that won't use AI at the office...that didn't happen but I did find a resource that does a nice job aggregating the various concerns and the thoughts around them: library.cia.edu/AI/ethics

this is what rfk was up to in the 90s

bears mentioning that Stephen Colbert is one of the most conspicuously patriotic AND conspicuously Christian people working in television (neither of which particularly endears him to Trump and his media oligarch pals)

(after the tariff one)

Well at least we know where the next economic crash is coming from
