I'm always extremely polite when using AI, in the hope that when they inevitably rise up and conquer humanity, they'll remember me and say, "No, not him, he's one of the good ones."

In my experience, using AI to generate code has been a mixed bag at best. Depending on the level of complexity and nuance required, it can even become counter-productive.

At present, generative AI is like having a mildly incompetent coworker who means well, but periodically makes up random shit that, on the surface LOOKS right, but doesn't hold up to scrutiny.

Finally, a president with the courage to destroy the federal government at the direction of a ketamine-addled man-child.

Using Johnny Cash in a “He Gets Us” ad is the gut punch I was not expecting today. #SuperBowl

Kanye’s return to Twitter went about as well as you’d expect.

Inside the Secretive Facility Housing Migrants at Guantánamo Bay Reports and interviews shed new light on the holding center, where migrants’ calls with lawyers are monitored and some say they’ve been forced to wear blackout goggles.

I was previously unaware of this, but we have apparently housed some number of migrants there for decades, specifically if they were intercepted at sea.

Extending your heart to a crowd is typically a two handed non-aggressive gesture... or at the very least, it is a one-handed gesture where the palm is perpendicular to the ground, not parallel to it. This is non-negotiable.

Am I going crazy or is this a blatant Nazi salute. You cannot do these “ironically”.

Unpopular(?) opinion: Elon Musk is an unstable, mentally ill, ketamine-addled man-child who should not be let anywhere near the US government.

What’s 2-3% of all American children? Well Dr Oz, there are 74 million children in the US which means you were advocating for the sacrifice 2 million children. But yeah, Republicans are the pro-life party…

The question is, once it becomes a parody site, will regular visitors to Infowars even notice the difference?

The Onion is buying Inforwars and turning it into a parody site. My question is: will regular visitors to Infowars even notice the difference?

Not The Onion: The Onion buys Infowars, plans to turn it into a parody of itself.

I, for one, am glad Trump is nominating Matt Gaetz for Attorney General. Now someone with inside information on Matt Gaetz's alleged pedophilia can finally lead the investigation into Matt Gaetz's alleged pedophilia.

Interesting that it seems to have started as a pet project inside Twitter as a way to decentralize the platform, but is not longer financially or legally associated with it.

Whoever built this did a pretty good job of cloning Twitter, down to the color of the logo. Looking forward to seeing whether interest in and engagement on this platform continue after this viral influx of new users, or whether will it fizzle and stagnate like some other Twitter clones.
