Definitely don’t pay attention to sexism in how people think about women’s sports. Why look in the mirror when you can write another article blaming Gen Z and the Internet for everything.

β€œCulture is not rotting from within, but from online.”

Author clearly doesn’t understand that one precedes the other, redirecting blame on young people rather than questioning systems and conditions that have brought us to this point.

Clearly the price for your wisdom would be a mondo blunt and a couple of pints of ice cream.

Small dachshund or mixed breed dog with black and brown fur being held in someone's arms while chewing on a white bone toy. The dog has long floppy ears and is looking sideways against a person wearing a gray shirt.

Dog-sitting, 3D printing, and escalating. Rapidly.

I pay 2500 for a one bedroom near DC. I’m envious. Though, I’d likewise be fucked by that rent even if, quality-to-price ratio seems much better where you are.

Didn’t you just say a bit ago that you didn’t want to be bean-dad-ed? Now you’re sharing this.

Hank, I think you secretly want to be bean-dad-ed.

I like the logo. I generally like the company (though the issue with the CEO is something I just learned, so I’ll have to look into it). It’s rather unfortunate that they chose the cute mascot to be attached to this.

Ok. Firstly, wtf? Secondly, this sounds like a really dumb way of compromising sensitive government data.

My mom couldn’t understand when I was trying to explain that a friend of mine was a monogamous bi person. They’d broken up with their gf and had started dating their current bf, and they were like β€œoh, so they’re not a lesbian anymore?”

It was a very frustrating conversation.

Actual average astronomy professor: "if you come away from this class with an understanding that astronomy and astrology are different, I'll take the W"

Also, I’m genuinely wondering how he thinks that an AI model would figure out how to make new analogies to explain quantum effects. Like…humans have been working on this shit for a century, and our analogies can still be pretty confusing.

It wasn’t an argument about metric vs Imperial units. No, it was about MKS vs CGS, essentially deciding do you use centimeters and grams, or meters and kilograms, for your base units

He clearly has never actually learned quantum mechanics. As someone who has, I can assure you, nothing can beat being taught by an old Russian tenured professor, who spent an entire lecture explaining his thoughts on how the MKS metric system was meant to bury Einstein’s ideas.

Vibe physics is what you get when an undergraduate doesn’t study for a test, but tries to make it look like he knows what he’s doing.

I made my own like this, but yes, similar to this. I remember seeing this after I made mine back around 2020

Oh look, it’s the series made to milk the emaciated cow that is the Harry Potter series, and because the author can’t get over the fact that the original cast can’t stand her.

All JK had to do was to sit in a Scottish castle and enjoy her money. Somehow she fucked that up

Like, if I was Jack, would the news also report on when I once developed an API that just delivered cat pictures?

Indeed. I think that we need quality alternatives to the monopolistic players in the space, not another half-baked, insecure vibe code project.

Veilid is one of my favorite projects right now in terms of the secure messaging.

Honestly though, if Jack wants to shit things out, I guess he can, but it’s just fucking annoying that every time he does, it’s somehow considered newsworthy.
