The gambling industry evolving every day in more and more wretched ways. Bet on what now? Your child support? This, sports betting, and prediction markets should be banned or at least banned from being advertised and showing up in the app store without searching for it.

ladies and gentlemen...we got him

Probably missing part of the discourse you are referring to.. the most backlash I've seen on ai upscaling is the one youtube seems to force on shorts, unknowingly to creators uploading them. The "unknowingly" part was the source of the anger, not the upscaling.

New blog Post:

That's right, it's time to profile Austin Ogonoski: the neo-nazi that's the Game Design Director for Project Motor Racing.

Major CW on this one. Don't buy PMR kiddos.

To think there's a lot of stuff I glossed over. 🏁💀🏁

Hey @nytimes.com, did you change your headline, and change "Islamophobic attacks" on Mamdani to just "attacks," because Elise Stefanik and the GOP bullied you into it? Really? Why are they no longer Islamophobic attacks, as your headline originally and correctly stated?

Those that back the fuck away from Omelas.

This is happening. Musk's lawyers tried to say his statements about Autopilot might have been deepfaked, in a case he settled almost as soon as the judge stopped laughing

I said what I said: Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague for crimes against humanity.

the youtube vs yt-dlp arms race is hilarious, because of how lopsided it is.

on the one hand, you've got a company with the GDP of Denmark who has about a manhattan-project's worth of developers they can assign to this.

but on the other end, you've got every bored or annoyed javascript hacker.

Brain got a QUITE CRISPY after my last couple blog posts, so I thought I’d take a beat to write about a few well-made things I’ve enjoyed lately. ethanmarcotte.com/wrote/some-w...

Thanks for the suggestions. Obviously I had to mock up a cover as if they actually released a soundtrack album.

could someone smart actually explain to me how the iPhone settings search function is, and has always been, so criminally awful? Why almost no search will ever work on it? it seems so strange for a modern piece of technology

I'm still very deeply involved with this topic on a daily basis and can say that any local government investing or expanding its use will be apologizing to their citizens before the contract expires.

Mark my words. My video was the tip of the iceberg. It's BAD.

Finally some effort to build a new business model to properly credit the content creators AI sources from? www.axios.com/2025/09/23/m...

how is this so perfect , i’m screaming

I know it's an age old issue but I cannot count the papers shared with code that is unable to reproduce the reported evaluation results. And benchmark hacking. Training on a set that's been tailored to the benchmark. Technically not training on test but yea..

Sending you strength for the weeks to come!

I hope people understand that the anomaly here aren’t the conditions—the conditions are very typical—the anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely

Their waists and hands were tied together, forcing them to bend down and lick water to drink. The unscreened bathrooms contained only a single sheet to cover their lower bodies. Sunlight barely penetrated through a fist-sized hole, and they were only allowed access to the small yard for two hours. Detained by US immigration authorities for eight days, the workers and their families expressed shock, describing human rights violations and absurdities they could not have imagined as ordinary Koreans living in 2025.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

what happened to @bennjordan.bsky.social ? it disappeared overnight, did I miss something?

Dave Portnoy tweet saying ‘absolutely disgusting and disturbing video from Charlie Kirk shooting today. Hoping for the best for him and his family. Anybody who is happy about this is a disgusting human.’

Pop Crave Tweet: ‘Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy says he hopes a missile hits Greta Thunberg’s boat as she sails away with aid: “I hope they hit a f*cking, like, a missile on her boat. Knock that boat down. Greta or whatever her name is”

This explains it better than I can

Wow quite a way to learn about this.

Finally putting a word on a very common phenomenon in large friend groups: the missing stair.
