I don't know about y'all, but I get all my financial advice by going on TikTok and searching for the hashtag "#NotFinancialAdvice".

Currently resisting the urge to get "BULLSHIT" tattooed on my hand so that when some #Portland hippy starts spouting pseudoscience, I can ask them if they'll "read my palm".

"Oh wow good point, ChatGPT API wrapper app. I guess my grandmother really IS better off as worm-food. I never thought of it that way!"

Whew, now I don't have to speak to an actual licensed mental health professional which might cost my poor healthcare company money!

Getting really tired of my massively expensive health care company sending me ads for already-free apps in place of actual mental or physical healthcare.

No, I don't want to meditate with the "Calm" app or talk to an #AI therapist to help me get over the death of a loved one.

I am not comfortable ringing one of those "ring for service" bells, and I'm fairly certain that I literally never will be.

Extra relevance from 5 months ago.

Hope you had fun on "pleasure Island", Donald.

Man breaks law, is warned repeatedly to stop breaking law, continues breaking law, consequences follow. Internet outraged.

By that logic... No, wait, there's no logic there.

Does anyone else judge people who refer to multiplication by saying "times it by" instead of "multiply it by"?

To me, saying "times it by three" is like saying "plus it by three" instead of "add three" - which, I hope we can all agree, would be absurd.

No, I'm afraid the 4th edition is a totally separate book - all new chapters, major content updates, loads of work going into it. It'll be worth it. 😉

The sigil was drawn in salt and ash, the candles lit at the pentagram points, the incantation declaimed.

There was a shimmer - a demon appeared.

"Curious. What ritual is this?"

"I got it from ChatGPT. I included all protections in my prompt!"

"I see," the demon said and stepped out of the sigil.

Not to worry, it will be coming out on paperback and hopefully hardcover around the same time as the Kindle edition launches!

Get the Kindle version for $3 when you buy the audiobook ($4), which is a total of $7.
It's cheaper than the Kindle edition alone, which is like a discount for insane people who do insane things.

Did you know that you can buy the #ServiceNow Development Handbook 3rd edition on audiobook?

You shouldn't... but you could! ...If you want a computer voice attempt to read code out loud.

#TIL that if I become mayor of a town, I'm allowed to just set the time zone to whatever the hell I want.

I need to become mayor.
I NEED to have a time zone that constantly flips like GMT+10 and GMT-63.5, and then it's GMT-8:03:11:40, then on Thursdays it's GMT+2π.

Can anyone explain to me why my dryer has a "whites" setting?
Or what the heck the difference is between "normal" and "regular"?
