This is in the running for my favorite lecture slide ever

If you make a video game that has an inventory, and your inventory system doesn't support sorting, your game is still in Alpha.

Post something random or you’ll have an awful December

ChatGPT will be nice to you (derogatory)

A hot girl will be mean to you (positive)

One might even have the temerity to suggest that tongue flaps cause boat naps.

Gender-affirming care saves lives

Important.

There are other times and places where it's possible to confound AI scrapers, and I thoroughly endorse doing so. But if you use alt text for that, you're doing far more harm to accessibility than you are to the AI bubble. That's not a good trade.

This Black Friday don’t buy into genocide Avoid these BDS targets enabling Israel’s ongoing genocide against Palestinians on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

This Black Friday and Cyber Monday don’t buy into genocide.

1) using genAI is unacceptable even for relatively unimportant things, this is not up for debate

2) if you're making a video game and you think something is boring, DON'T PUT IT IN YOUR FUCKING GAME. Make shit you're fucking excited about and willing to put effort into, you silly bitch!

DOORDASH: now imagine that it could be yours for just $37

what a grim way to confess to the entire world that you've never had a creative idea in your entire life

Daft Punk still cranking out the hits

One last ethical failure to really seal the deal

everyone knows the number one quality of rigorous, responsible journalism is waiting months and months to reveal urgently newsworthy information until it can cause the most harm in your personal vendettas

Destroy them, pls.

Layers upon layers of tomfuckery encapsulated in this single image. A work of art.

I'm liking this guy more and more.

I am not Catholic and I still have many fundamental issues with the Catholic Church as an organization, but Leo XIV is clearly actually trying to be like Jesus and call other believers to do the same.

However else my faith fluctuates, I support being like Jesus.

To be fair, they were willing to take OpenAI as a client, so we already knew they were a bad lawyer.

I haven’t been this excited for a bubble to burst since I was a toddler.

I wonder if dork is the American berk. Used to denote someone being goofy or a little bit foolish, but in an endearing sort of way?

"Don't marry [name]."

Sad, I know, but we both would have had much happier lives if we'd realized we didn't work before we did all that.

Take "during a holiday week" out of that sentence and I agree with you.

Spent at least an hour tonight trying to find a way to do something that should be extremely simple, which only *isn't* simple because Google, Amazon, Apple, and their ilk actively remove and destroy consumer control over their own devices.

I want to live in a world where we make tech for people.
