You all have permission (from me) to do this

Seeking a therapist to cure me of my passion for Schemes

exhibit 478 on why all the LLM-as-AGI stuff is nonsense, they are very impressive prediction machines but they do not think and they’re never going to stop producing bullshit

Switching to a degoogled jelly 2 to look at my phone less. Where’s my unihertz gang

I’m so glad humor is legal again now that cancel culture is over

Jesus Christ.

it’s so funny to see the nyt turn their suburban car brain framing on sf instead of nyc for once. yeah a beloved coastal highway that was closed 70% of the time because it was being swallowed up by sand dunes again you nailed it

Guy who keeps creating new supply chain attacks on JavaScript frameworks to force developers into seriously considering HTML

My new shirt design is a very serious PSA that I was asked to make, because apparently a lot of people don't know. roryblank.bigcartel.com

Leave it to that guy to get even better-looking in jail

Guy wearing “the purpose of a system is what it does” t-shirt feeling a lot of unwanted clarity these days

To have a right to an opinion in this country you have to be independently wealthy and/or self-employed. I was going to make a crack about how that’s “just as the founders intended,“ but that is in fact how some of the founders intended it.

I was talking about this with my uncle the other day. I thought Einstein was reclusive for the last few decades of his career and life. He wasn't. He was denouncing racism by teaching & speaking at Black collages and organisations. White people need to know that for his work to be understood

becoming a really cool hermit kingdom where no one can read nothing is manufactured and no one can send us anything in the mail.

My dad first signed up for Twitter to follow live sports and he’s a freak about U of I. One day he said to me “Twitter is abuzz about Illini golf,” and I was like dude you only follow Illini sports accounts. And that’s how every reporter feels Charlie Kirk was the most important person in the world.

BIG BOAT STUCK

Silver lining: the Coen brothers got back together so we can hope one of them reads this

Good day to find out how many people you know are credulous idiots

Mini marsupial bounces back from the brink! Once listed as Endangered, the crest-tailed mulgara expanded its range by more than 48,000 km² between 2015 and 2021, lifting its status to Least Concern. Biocontrol contributed to the heartwarming bounce-back. https://f.mtr.cool/afllseseeb

Did you know that if you ask “What does Alan Kay think of $SUBJECT” on quora, it summons Alan Kay? Anyway, here’s Alan Kay on the current uses of LLMs www.quora.com/What-does-Al...

I don’t want to post through it. I want it to not be something through which I feel compelled to post

Man they’re gonna make us all pay so much to get Less Computer. Talking to a person will cost $50/hr. None of that money will go to the person you talk to

Just take five minutes out of your day to go ahead and do this. I even recommend adding it to your calendar now, so you don’t forget (what I am doing right now)

The most amazing thing about that letter, to me, is even knowing everything I know, I wasn’t prepared for it to be quite so bad and obvious as it was

Should I get a tattoo of the friendly blob my 5yo drew

Bolting out of bed, fully revived by the prospect of wearing a Bills shirt to my 8:30 standup for victory Monday

LET’S GO BUFFALO

The Buffalo Bills are the best team in the NFL. They know I have a 10:30 bedtime and they are doing their best to keep me healthy

Gonna need Jon Bois to do his what is a catch thing but for holding

Go! Bills!

There is, as of right now, no coverage of this protest on the WaPo website or in their @washingtonpost.com feed. So, if you (you reading this) want people to SEE this protest, you must share it.

I disagree, bc he got the class character of all of this wrong. The class base for Trump is not labor, and the resentment is against cities, not the suburbs.

Phenomenal news for manufacturers of tiny gravestones

Nice treat-based society ya got there. Be a shame if something suddenly cut off the flow of treats into the country

It frankly boggles my mind that we have invented a computer that cannot do math.

The next morning, RFK junior emerges from a homemade submarine with a furtive expression and a large cooler

How's my flying? Call 1-800-EAT-SHIT

Get the hell off Substack before you literally can’t anymore without blowing up your business

Austin out in the streets for Labor Day, marcing to the Texas State Capitol

At Lowe’s, for instance, every one of their 273,000 employees could’ve gotten an annual $28,456 bonus over the past six years with the money the retailer blew on stock buybacks. Lowe’s median worker pay was just $30,606 last year. #LaborDay #EconomicJustice #ClassWar

Huge protest in Asheville again today I’m not expecting to see any coverage of. Assuming every city in the U.S. is like this for Labor Day

Guess what you can’t buy anymore happy Labor Day

i've never seen anyone attempt a LuBubu (Lu Bu x Labubu), so i took the dark deed upon myself

Dear Democratic Leaders, If you won’t stand up for trans people and their rights, you’re tellling me you won’t stand up for *anyone* or *any rights* the second they come under attack. You’re telling me you don’t stand for anything at all. Also, they’re *people*. Grow a spine or get out the way.

Easy to imagine a Seinfeld b-plot of Elaine dating a really ugly guy because she’s seen him dating attractive women before so she assumes he’s good in bed, but then he isn’t. So she talks to the other women, finds they thought the same thing. Episode closes on him out with another hot chick

We are well past the time when the question of whether AI as currently trained encodes biases could be treated as open. We need very rapidly to enter the what are we going to do about it phase.

Be the Guy you wish to know in the world

One of the things that drives me up the wall is when people say students “need to learn how to use AI” to succeed in the workplace. It is EXTREMELY EASY to use a chatbot. That’s the whole point of it! You do not need training to type in the box! What are you even TALKING about?? +
