Sickening. Every journalist in America should think deeply about the fact that most American politicians are willing to accept and indeed facilitate the murder of our colleagues.

How many times does the letter b appear in blueberry
The word "blueberry" has the letter b three times:
β€’ Once at the start ("B" in blueberry).
β€’ Once in the middle ("b" in blue).
β€’ Once before the -erry ending ("b" in berry).
Total: 3
O92
Show me where the letter b appears in the word please.
Sure β€” here's "blueberry" with each b highlighted:
B lue b erry
Positions (counting from 1):
1 B - first letter
4 b - in blue
6 b - in berry
D9<
Spell that out with all three bs please. I mean, just spell the word.
Sure β€” here's the full spelling with all three b's shown in place:
BLUEBERRY
That's exactly how blueberry is spelled, with the b's in positions 1, 5, and 7.

You wrote "BLUEBERRY". There are only two bs there.
Ah - I see the mix-up.
Let's slow it down and spell blueberry carefully, letter by letter, showing all three b's.
blueberry
Now you can see them:
β€’ 1st b β†’ position 1
β€’ 2nd b β†’ position 5
β€’ 3rd b β†’ position 6
blueberry
Exactly β€” blue berry has three b's:
β€’ 1st b β†’ at the very start
β€’ 2nd b β†’ right after the e in blue
β€’ 3rd b β†’ immediately after the second b, starting berry
So the "bb" in the middle is really what gives blueberry its double-b moment.
Its double-b moment; I see.
Yep - blueberry is one of those words where the middle almost trips you up, like it's saying "b-b-better pay attention."
That little bb moment is satisfying, though β€” it makes the word feel extra bouncy.

My students get you to write their essays for them, you know.
Ah, the old "ChatGPT, do my homework" routine β€” I'm familiar with that one.
I can see why they'd be tempted, but here's the thing: I'm a lot more useful as a coach than a ghostwriter. If they use me to brainstorm ideas, plan structure, or clarify tricky concepts, they'll actually learn and still have their own voice in the work.
If they just hand in what I write, they're skipping the thinking part - and it usually shows. I'm good, but I still leave a trail of... telltale ChatGPT-isms.
A trail of blueberries, as it were.
Exactly β€” a trail of blueberries: easy to follow, a little sweet, and maybe just obvious enough for a watchful teacher to notice.
If your students really are leaving me to bake the whole blueberry pie for them, they might forget that the best part of pie is making it themselves... even if it gets a little messy.
"Blueberry" only has two bs.
Nope - blueberry really does have three b's.
Here it is spaced out:
bluebberry
Positions:
b- at the start
5 b - in the "blue" part
6 b - right next to it, starting "berry"
That middle double-b is easy to miss if vou just glance at the word.

I get that the hospitals are being pressured by Trump. But trans kids aren't a political cudgel to use against Trump in speeches. Unless the Pritzker administration reverses course and enforces the law, requiring these hospitals to provide gender affirming care to trans kids, I won't vote for him.

I enjoy how insane these people are in a very broad sense.

saying "AI is counter-culture, just like punk rock" as if punk rock was ever bankrolled by the largest corporations on the planet to the point that 1/4 of the US economy is propped up by a punk rock bubble lol.

it's weapons grade cringe.

That is nowhere even close to what Elon did, in context and in motion. Come on. This is just dishonest.

2. This isn't a sieg heil.

If ChatGPT is not consistently dependable, how are we suppose to use it for actual work?
Discussion
It's behavior and results can randomly change due to some OpenAl tweaking that's opaque.
On some days it can't even keep track of a fresh chat, it can't do calculations, it can't sort through a chat to extract relevant information, and when it's suppose to refer to source material in a PDF, it doesn't.
All because OpenAl trained it for fluency and basically to simulate whatever it can for user satisfaction.
I can use it for general chats, philosophical stuff, therapy, but nothing serious. I'm pro Al, but I approach it with skepticism knowing it's undependable (as I do with anything I read).
And prompts can be interpreted/executed differently across users' own interaction with their Als so it's not truly scalable.
How does the business world / leaders expect staff to adopt Al if it's not consistently dependable? It doesn't even calculate like a calculator. If the internet start claiming 2+2=5, that's what it'll answer with.
I'd use it for hobbies and pet projects but I can't imagine using it for anything "mission critical".
