Ah, yes, the Republican campaign promise: “Government doesn’t work. Elect me and I’ll prove it!”

I learned cursive and then never used it again. I learned it to sign my name, but you don’t even need cursive to sign your name because everybody’s signature is just a big scribble anyway.

1·4 days agoI’m skeptical he would win that suit. Google can just say that they had to enforce their rules regardless of whether the police think he’s innocent or not, and since they own the servers that his files were on, they reserve the right to delete those files if they decide to.

2·4 days agoLike LLMs, they’re a sad technology for sad, stupid people.
LLMs are good for identifying plants. And transcription. And a bunch of other things I can’t think of right now. If you’ve ever had to do transcription by hand, you know the pain, and you’ll be so grateful to have a machine do it for you.
The problem is people trying to shoehorn LLMs into everything and calling it “Artificial Intelligence”.

104·5 days ago“I saw all these comments about if you wear those glasses you’re basically a predator or a creep, and I was like, ‘Oh, maybe it’s not a good idea to have those,’” said Kujawa. "I didn’t really think that through all the way… there are a lot of times where it’s not appropriate to wear cameras on your face."
Words to live by.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg remains convinced that smart glasses will eventually replace the smartphone.
Sure, Jan.

2·5 days agoThe moral of Don’t Create the Torment Nexus is that you should create the torment nexus first so that you’re in control of it!
Same issue as the robots in Star Wars. If you’re going to give a machine a personality, why is it an annoying one?
Cue. C-U-E. The angry comments aren’t lining up and waiting their turn. The angry comments are activated by the ragebait (like a stage cue).

Have you been tested for ADHD? I had a therapist tell me the same thing. He was wrong.
Yowch! Reminds me of comparisons between US and Japanese comic books. US comics are packed with exposition while Japanese comics are more cinematic.

15·10 days agoYeah, that isn’t how this works. You don’t want to be the one using the software while it’s still in beta. Wait until the dust settles before committing to anything. Besides which the super-urgent "You have to buy now!" FOMO sales pitch is a classic strategy for scammers.

9·10 days agoThere is no “AI”. Calling it that was a big marketing coup to make people think that they were buying intelligence. As of 2026, no computer is intelligent; you still need humans for that.
LLMs can be cool and useful in certain applications.
