I’ve had sweet “cornbread” that tasted great. But I wouldn’t dunk it in chili, therefore it wasn’t cornbread but corncake.

What’s funny about the Disney YoutubeTV fight is that Disney probably doesn’t realize no one at Google is paying attention.

They deployed YoutubeTV, earned their promotions, and moved on to the next product.

Yeah. The font seems more modern than the real answer.

I think Altman assumes that “PhD-level expert” means someone who speaks confidently on everything as opposed to saying “it’s nuanced,” losing their keys, and getting maniacally fixated on their current topic to the point of seeing it in everything.

You need to start using it in the cringiest ways you can. Rob the word of its power.

The “If I had a nickel for every time. I’d only have two, but it’s weird that it happened twice” meme applies here.

It’s pretty hard to determine that a random bit of code won’t lose data, get hacked, or summon nasal demons.

Software too! I know software engineering is the one profession everyone is ok with AI replacing, but there’s a huge difference between software that looks like it works and software that actually works.

I think it’s another version of “show don’t tell”. Show me the moral within the story; don’t tell me and take me out of the story.

The kids cartoon thing works (to the extent it does work) because it’s usually at the end of the episode and is summarizing the episode’s message.

He can maybe bribe enough of the cabinet into using the 25th amendment. They hate him but they don’t hate money

Do you have a link to the turtle ramp? Our idiot (pictured) would love that.

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.
