I had previously been impressed with Cursor, but Claude Code is some next level wizardry.

I think you at least made more than Snoop did on Spotify πŸ˜‚

Did OpenAI reduce the daily usage limits for ChatGPT?

How am I hitting my daily limits at 10:30A with just normal usage?

I know I sound like a broken record on this, but it is staggering how much better Pandora is at making playlists & "radio stations" with great music than Spotify.

I've heard so many songs in the past week that I haven't heard in years. Partying like it's 2009 😜

I’ve officially switched from Spotify to Pandora and I couldn’t be more happy. The variety, it’s way smarter at playing β€œsimilar songs” β€” and it doesn’t play the same ~30 songs over, and over, and over again.

It's pretty wild. We have a 2020 Miata we're going to be selling and Carvana offered us $23k for it.... we paid $38k for it new. Meaning they're gonna sell it for, I assume, almost what I paid for it 5 years ago. 🀯

Vibe Coding in a language you are not familiar with will not make you more productive than hand-rolling a solution in a language you are familiar with.

Writing a working program is 80% coding, and 45% debugging. πŸ€“

I think Aspire could have been so much better if it were platform agnostic. I love Aspir8, but the fact it's not first class functionality is almost a deal breaker for me.

Musk’s xAI says Grok's 'white genocide' posts resulted from change that violated 'core values' Elon Musk's xAI said an "unauthorized modification" to its Grok chatbot led to unprompted responses about "white genocide" in South Africa.

I'm just curious if they fired the Nazi they apparenly had working for them are not. Based on this article, I think the answer is no?

My Baseball Card identification model is at 17,000 training images and about 200 sets! Think it’ll be ready for prime time in another month or so.

Have some gaps to fill in the 2010s ⚾️

If you read interviews with him, he really did not like how he was portrayed in the book and movie for Moneyball.

He paints a picture that Billy (or someone) had a very negative opinion of him and the events. Nobody asked him for his side -- so people would judge him based on that character.

Democrats need to coalesce around a platform that isn't just "Trump Bad", that doesn't have social issues at its center.

They need to come up with a brave, bold strategy that will be similar to FDR's new deal once Trump's agenda craters the economy (which it will).

Just caught up and I couldn’t agree with this more. They end every season so beautifully and I felt they way they closed the show was *chefs kiss*

Also, if Uncle Baby Billy doesn’t get his own spin-off, I’m going to take to the streets in protest. ✊

I don't know if I've been using Spotify too long or what, but my recommendations now, across multiple playlists, are basically the same 20-30 songs. It's getting super repetitive -- I wonder if it's because of their new reliance on AI and the AI lacking the "creativity" compared to earlier algos?

Photo of a book on a bookshelf in a shop. It’s by the late Pope Francis. Large picture of his head together with the word β€˜Hope’.

Wow, what a horrific typo. Right on the cover.

I can talk about lost family members no problem, but I will start tearing up the minute I begin reminiscing about our previous two Pugs Woodrow and Eleanor.

They just hold a very, very special place in our lives. ❀️

The GOP is OK with Tax-exempt status being revoked from entities due to political retribution?

It’s a dangerous new precedent to set, but I sure hope the Democrats are taking notes if the GOP has no complaints πŸ“

Officially shutdown my Mastodon instance this morning.

It was a good run but the majority of folks/creators/news orgs I follow are all here now, so BlueSky it is!

I'm still not *thrilled* with once again trusting a 3rd party company with my data -- but BlueSky has critical mass.

The part that I wasn't able to find a graceful solution for re:products/prices was how the IDs are going to be different between environments.

You can't just copy your DB over, you have to rebuild all those entities with the correct stripe ID's for prices, shipping, products, etc.
