Me, an atheist: Your holiness I stand ready to join the crusade against the demonic computers

I'm so glad I spent all that time learning cursive. I'd be lost in life without it. I use that shit for hours every single day

there’s lots of good food

One of my beliefs is that during a holiday week email shouldn't work at all for anyone

I'm about to say something controversial but I have to be honest: Today is a perfect day to throw a potato and a carrot and an onion and a meat (or meat alternative) into a pot and then boil it until it turns into a stew.

Putting this guy in charge of administering my will

Incredibly funny to have to work next to this all day

It rocks that the online voice of the US government is "computer-damaged reactionary virgin."

I adore early Simpsons, and the steamed ham scene is legendary. I am delighted that someone actually went through the time and effort to recreate that entire scene as a NES game from 1991. Absolute commitment to the bit. Enjoy:

Google's rollout of AI into the Google Docs suite is an infuriating blend of fuck-awful useless AI tools, hamfisted forced integration of features I don't want or need, and CONSTANT popups letting me know that Gemini exists. Unbelievably awful, unwelcome "AI features" I don't fucking want.

Word of the Day: MUMPSIMUS – someone who obstinately sticks to their old ideas in spite of evidence that they are wrong.

This might be an unpopular opinion but what this baby seal is doing is very special to me, personally.

wheeeee

Should the economy be regulated by a democratic society to ensure that it creates opportunity and benefit for everyone? Or should it be a plaything for approximately a dozen of the world's most odious assholes? Who knows

Flying back to Seattle after spending my third week at my new job onsite in Beverly Hills. That was one of the most invigorating and fun weeks I've ever had in 24 years of game dev. I'm excited and exhausted and ready to be home with my awesome wife and cats.

All game developers should strive to create an incidental NPC as memorable as the pork bun guy from Sleeping Dogs.

I tell younger folks all the time: Do not worry about losing the respect or presence of people who can't or won't accept you doing things that bring you joy. The only relationship you are guaranteed will last until you die is the one you have with yourself. Don't let yourself down.

Bruce Schneier is one of the truly great tech and infosec thinkers. This is a short and terrific summary of the security mindset as it applies to AI, but honestly is powerfully applicable to designing anything built for human interaction. web.archive.org/web/20140719...

oh god. I just heard the sound of several vehicles racing nearby, at least three VERY loud rapid impacts, and then silence. I really hope those were cars and not motorcycles. I know the road that likely happened on, and if I heard it that loudly from this far... :(

What idiot in the John Wick universe called it The Continental and not the Target Market

Word of the Day: CUÑADISMO (Spanish slang) — literally: ‘brother-in-law-ism’; speaking on topics you know little about as if you were an expert and smarter than everyone else.

according to this graph the 3 outcomes for AI are becoming a WALL-E person, 0.2% economic growth, and getting your skull stomped by a Terminator

Newly discovered Zappa album just dropped.

Wow. In another huge upset, Mesmero, the Master of Mentalism, has been elected mayor of Chicago. Political pundits are shocked - he’s a first-time candidate who barely spent anything on advertising, and there wasn’t even an election scheduled for today

zohran won

Word of the Day: ANTIMETABOLE - a rhetorical device when words are repeated in successive clauses, but swapped. For instance JFK's "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country", or Snoop Dogg's "With my mind on my money and my money on my mind."

god, it's like my cats have no idea what daylight savings time is.

You guys gotta see Possum’s costume.

After 1,142 days, I finally finished Invisalign! I'm thrilled to be done and happy with my smile. Highly recommend.

LONDON (AP) — Buckingham Palace says King Charles III will strip Prince Andrew of remaining titles including “Andrew”, curse him to wander the Earth as “the nameless one”

If every zombie bit one new person a day, starting with one zombie, the whole world would be zombified in 34 days.
