I don't want to get all eschatological (and I dislike people who do) but...

White horse = Annexing Canada, Greenland, Etc.
Red horse = Giving Russia the Greenlight in Ukraine
Black horse = Gut USAID, Gut USDA food programs
Pale horse = Measles

Apparently "Democracy dies in darkness" was aspirational.

Adios to my subscription, #washingtonpost

Seriously, I did not have "libertarian traffic stop videos become super useful" on my bingo card for this year.

A picture of my son, emerging from the children's barracks at Auschwitz on this date in 1945

This isn't actually my son, just his absolute doppelganger. But that this could be his twin hit me like a ton of bricks

Everyone is someone's son, daughter, or parent. Treat them as you would your own

I am a dumb. After I bought my house back in the 90s, I would get a trickle of mail addressed to the old occupants.

I was today years old when it dawned on me I bought my house from @profgalloway.com

I loved, loved, loved this book.

Even if it did take a dump on all my sci-fi dreams.

In other news, water remains wet.

How could it *not* be anything other than this?

Because of this, many cloud-based AIs are considered forbidden for use at certain companies.

To mitigate this, some companies are spinning up their own, non-shared AI agents just to prevent (or contain) this sort of leak.

Short answer: Potentially less secure.

Most AI agents are "on the cloud" and use your inputs to train themselves. Which is to say, they are effectively sharing training data with all their users.

And people have successfully tricked AI agents into doing a "brain dump" (spitting out large quantities of their training data)

I was six years old at a faculty holiday party (My parents were both professors at the time) and me and another kid were drinking eggnog and decided to call it eggsnot.

We thought it was hilarious and couldn't stop laughing.

In retrospect, the 'nog likely contained a fair amount of alcohol.

There’s something about spatchcocking and preparing a chicken that fits perfectly between β€œcooking show” and β€œDavid Cronenberg movie”

I love that when I watch an extra-old movie on one of the streaming platforms it spends around a minute buffering.

I imagine an army of gnomes in the server farm saying "Oh crap Louise! Someone's watching 'The Maltese Falcon!' Quick, dust it off and get those reels down to Stream Central!"

Cranberry center, Indian spiced turkey meatball, latke outside.

It’s an insane amount of work, but it looks like a deep fried Flying Spaghetti Monster and tastes delish.

If loving you is wrong, I don't want to be right.

As a kid I didn't like Reagan because I was a knee-jerk liberal.

As an adult I've come to realize so many bad turns in American policies (For profit health insurance, not enforcing the Robinson-Patman Act, end of the Fairness Doctrine) stemmed from that rat bastard.

Congrats 16 year old me.
