There is currently a very large skunk between me and the entrance to my home. This is not a situation I am wild about.
Listening to a podcast about the oil markets and stroking my chin intellectually while they talk about the “crack spread” for 5 straight minutes.
Everything lining up for Poch coming out of the tunnel for the second half.
I am legitimately fascinated by the way he has accepted the very mainstream and standard diagnosis for his vocal issues, which presumably came from the medical establishment.
When you achieve true Nirvana, like myself, you don't even wear earphones and the kids in the gym talk to you like you're truly insane.
The great thing about powerlifting is you spend 80% of your time just staring at the ground and can do a lot of Processing.
ultra processed food is just food that ppl think is bad for you. its as simple as that. donuts = ultra processed food.
tofu =/= ultra processed food.
Important to problematize this info with the fact that, just statistically, a large amount of the people who are saying they have a negative view of AI must also be regular ChatGPT users.
The other day I made a little app that takes a photo of a wine list and gives me some helpful info about the wines. A friend was like: "this app already exists" but that app makes me sign up is constantly upselling me. Mine is 'worse," but is exactly what I want and I can tweak it any time.
Basically every time I use a piece of software that's missing a feature I want, I can now try to build it myself instead of being frustrated. The results are probably objectively shitty in terms of code (and sometimes don't work at all) but the process is empowering and broadly life-improving.
I wonder if Tom Waits knows the coach of Atlético Madrid looks exactly like him, I think he would have some fun with that.
In the wake of Waymo's blackout outage in San Francisco, Fast Company has obtained the database of every time a transit worker reports a problem with a robotaxi. It reveals a convoluted system for fixing issues that isn't well integrated with city operations: www.fastcompany.com/91501807/way...
Just catching up on this story: Beyond starting the fight, “Can you avoid the most basic of takedowns from a fucked up guy on the street” seems like it should sort of be baseline for any cop but certainly the mayor’s handpicked security detail. What if someone really tried to kill him?
Just heard someone describe themselves as an “ambivert.” This is just called being a person?

There’s an interesting parallel here with the e-bike conversation among cyclists. Empowering both unskilled new entrants and veterans who have lost passion/ability, but making some people at the top of their game feel uncomfortable about what it means.
in "Building Pro-Worker AI" Acemoglu, Autor, and Johnson characterize different kinds of automation and call out only new task-creating technologies as unambiguously pro-worker

All the best oracle are saying, Donald, if you invade PERSIA, a great empire will fall! We love our ORACLES, especially as regards to Delphi and Future! thank you for your attention to this matter!
If I can’t unionize Claude then it’s not conscious, next question
Was telling my kid about a woman was running super fast at the track this morning to try to inspire her with tales of female athleticism:
“Was she faster than you?”
“Yes, a lot faster.”
“Then I want her in my family instead of you!”
Saying “mogged” has gone so quickly from insular slang to joke a rando puts on their Instagram caption. Real danger of your subculture going mainstream in any way.
Can’t find the link now but Stat had the same bizarre sourcing and came to the same conclusion so it must have been on some sort of press briefing call that he bungled (or chose to bungle because he knew he was out) in some way.
A lot of people making the same dumb California joke as me but I do think there is an interesting poli sci question buried in there which is why $5 gas doesn't break the brains of California voters in the same way it does for the rest of the country (or to what extent it does).
Went to fill up the gas car we don't really use yesterday because I was like, I might as well fill it up before things get crazy, and it was already $5.14.
Californians seeing the rest of the country worried about $5 gas
Amazing. I will put these in my memory bank and then designate Collective Soul as the new holder of this spot.
When I tell my kid she needs to clean up her toys before she can watch tv and she refuses and I say ok fine I’ll help you and then she puts one tiny thing away and I do the rest and then I congratulate myself for setting such good boundaries.
