La Conquête du Panini

Yeah that's why I carry a sketchbook and a Dictaphone. This feels like a category difference.

Even if you fully intend to vote for whoever the Democratic nominee ends up being, there’s a huge difference between doing that quietly in November 2028 and loudly announcing it years in advance with zero conditions attached.

In the big ol' bathroom mountain
You never change your socks
And the little streams of alcohol
Come trickling down the rocks

A religion with a core part being where you enter a little booth and reveal your shortcomings and failures to some old guy can't go wrong.

I swear you can just *feel* this in life and culture, without understanding it.

Anyone clowning on this guy or whatever is an idiot. You get a dozen of these guys, some fraction will go back to exactly what they were, some fraction may pick up a new relation to politics, etc.

My food pantry struggles to make rent. Churches are the most widely available 3rd spaces.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

I'm confused by what needs to be made that an individual can create.

"Jupiter Australia" is now a thing for me.

Trying to imagine being someone making calls for this poll.

Reddit Playlists Continuously updated musical playlists. Based on up voted track posts in subreddits. For Spotify, YouTube, YouTube Music.

There's a dev out there who has made tools to turn the weeks top rated posts in various music subreddits into playlists.

Used to have YT and spot, now only Spotify alas. It's a cool idea.

Signal is an encryption company, not a messaging application company. It becomes clearer every day.

Screenshot of a paper titled "Emergency Department Antibiotic Treatment: The Best Prescription is in Fact the Optimal Prescription" by Jessica Pykett - though she did not write it.

Who benefits from publishing totally fake papers then attributing authorship to real people? My good friend and colleague Jess shared today a paper she did not write, in a different field, and appears to be about life/death medical matters. Is this the "AI revolution" in science in action? Well...

Everyone knows that classic book "How the Irish have always been white."

This. It's a zero sum view combined with confounding lack of total dominance with erasure.

Pres election discourse in this vein *never* includes the fact that it's only really practically relevant in some states.

A better world is possible.
A stranger, more perplexing one too.

No, because I think whales actually cost them $. AI income largely doesn't come from end customers so far it seems.

(I'm going off oh 1/2 remembered revenue citations from ed zitron I am not an expert)

Chatbot epistemology now

Who's on the right side, wrong answers only:

Every word beyond "we can't be political" was also wasted claptrap. Every answer regarding Palestine I've watched is like a live debate *practice* where more framing needs to be developed. It's 1/2 baked artspeak deployed to dodge.

Need more whistles to warn people of Smart Glasses.

This should be published in a major outlet.

not putting Zohran in the center here is… a choice

Has *any* company done a presentation showing feature development via AI based work with any level of detail?

I don't even know what they've been changing.

Wild how the US is entering the part of the decline slope where it's obvious, is largely self-made, tons of people see it, and yet it will almost certainly continue.

If I was in my 20s and didn't have lots of familial ties to the US, I'd be considering where I want to invest my existence.

Listen up, maggot. You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same reheated algorithmic slop as everything else.

Pam Bondi seems a bit cracked.

Not sure how it plays to maga loyalists, but seems like she's doing poorly on both substance and style.
