Zach from JerryarigEverything is gonna snap this like a well tempered Hershey bar.

How are you feeling about the community you left behind? That’s a big concern for us, but fleeing is a big option on the table.

In 2007 I had a Palm. I miss that brand.

Propaganda’s a helluva drug

Same, they’re often some of my favorite episodes, not just because I like musicals.

• Writing one often requires much more planning and effort
• Seeing how they creatively shoehorned the reason for it being a musical episode is always fun (e.g. Scrubs, Star Trek Discovery)
• Some certified bangers

I’d prefer it was simply prevented via policy rather than punished if breached.

I agree with you completely, and that way you actually learn what the formula does and its limitations, so you can comfortably use it again next time. Instead of simply relying on the AI to figure it out again.

There are really two options, either

1. Clicks on results have decreased because AI summaries are so good. Or
2. AI summaries aren’t giving the answers people want so they’re clicking on results.

It’s good for Google to show that clicks are happening because that’s part of how they make their money, their clients need the clicks to survive. It’s good for Google to show that AI summaries are being used because it’s a product they’ve poured a lot of money into, that’s being sold to shareholders as a superintelligence.

Bubble is going to burst.

Yes we are

Great time for people to go vegan if they aren’t already

Just got a job that is fully remote, and I think I need to start doing this a few times a month. I could do a half day at a local happy hour or something. It’s oppressively lonely as is.

No, I’d rather vote for vegan ice cream first, then vote against driving off a cliff.

Unfortunately our current system doesn’t allow for that, so obviously I vote against driving off a cliff, but it feels so stagnating.

I counted the boxes and compared to the number of digits.

Yep, we had a “targeted political attack” in Brooklyn Center (a 2nd ring suburb of Minneapolis) about 2 hours before the protests were set to start.

It is what it is

What a despicable way to respond to a well reasoned and compassionate comment.

I get that inner reflection is difficult, I really do. But if someone’s message hits you in a particularly poignant way, responding with cruelty just doesn’t seem helpful for anyone involved. I hope you’re able to grow past it and hold a mirror to yourself.

Having children ensures a human must suffer through the worsening climate crisis.

https://app.thestorygraph.com/ is awesome! I like the charts I get from it. There are also read-alongs and buddy reads which are nice.

They call them projectors. They’re just way too expensive to be reasonable replacements for the average user.

Sometimes, it’s not about changing their mind, but influencing the many others who are less certain in their beliefs who are just reading along.
