I and My Cloud

Oh, I got it back then. I hunted that son of a bitch for four years… but I got it back… (faraway look)

For the last time, I’m asking you to please give it back.

It really is a great bit of filmmaking.

r/analytics • IOh We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up. Support So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.

lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard

Younger bones aren’t able to withstand the friction… what is this guy doing with children’s bones?

Bluesky people need to learn how to take the fucking win. “Where were you when” stuff may feel emotionally satisfying, but it’s loser behavior.

I can understand why people who maybe don’t follow politics or are casually following the news might be doomers. But when people who should know better do this “democracy is already lost, we should basically just give up” shit I assume they’re working for the admin.

Looking stonily at Liesman here

Jealous

They’re just good people. I get vaxxed there too.

“Aren’t there some kids you should be infecting with measles right now, you fucking gremlin?” — good

“Haha this guy’s in a wheelchair” — bad

This isn’t hard!

“Every citizen should be prepared to present a recent woodcut likeness at the polling place. Failing that, at least a silhouette and affidavit.”

Though he did make a dig at the Rachel, which can also be a good sandwich with the key alteration of using fresh cabbage and Russian dressing instead of coleslaw…

You deserve to look forward to an email or two for a change. This week Tal got to the Reuben. One of the true glories of sandwich life.

We live in an age of engineering miracles

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamilla’s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being “served food that contained worms.” A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees. The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

a very persistent thing on here is

poster a: untrue claim about a political figure - often a justly dislikable or objectionable one
poster b: correction of untrue claim
poster a: oh so you support them

it's part of the general comprehension collapse but it's a distinct dynamic.

And he’s kind of insufferable in a way that I always worry I too am insufferable.

He’s always into klingon ritual and minutiae way more than Klingons raised in the culture. Which I vibe with because my mom’s side of the family is Jewish and I’ve always felt a need to be Jewish harder, even though they’re all reform and totally lackadaisical about observance.

He has massive flaws, but I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for him because he’s so clearly vulnerable and desperately trying to measure up to standards in a classic split culture family way.

I am Spartacus, but I am Benj Hellie. How can this be? How can I be both? And in this context, is Benj Hellie not also Kirk Douglas? Are we one that is also a triumvirate? I have had 100mg of THC. The THC is also Benj Hellie.

Elon Musk makes it clear that he intends to ensure Grok becomes as racist as he is.

Hegseth is gonna get upset that RFK Jr. is horning in on his bit.

Should probably see a doctor about that

Something that is very interesting about Bluesky is that often people reply to me as though I have never before considered the thing about which I am posting when in fact I probably have a great deal and that is why I am posting about it. Just one of life’s little jokes I suppose.
