I watched a late night screening of Beauty Water (2020) years ago with a whole cinema to myself and then got lost in the mall because it had already closed for the night.
I think it was fairly scary if you can find a copy

A screenshot of some text which reads: Ask Codex to clone it, drop your memories into the Codex App, and prompt the following: "Update chocolates.json with these assets and personalize the chocolate box." And within minutes, you've got a sweet gift to send to your loved ones.
I've found myself browsing Linkedin posts by OpenAI and I came across one from Valentines Day
It's from a Solutions Engineer who says she forgot about Valentines Day, found everything was booked out so she vibecoded a digital box of chocolates instead
Whoever said romance is dead?
Unfortunately no copies on my personal laptop or desktop 😔
> Familiarity with emerging technology issues, particularly dual-use AI capabilities, including CBRN and cybersecurity.
CBRN being en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBRN_de...
> Draft crisp policy products (briefs, memos, and government responses) on national security and public safety implications of advanced AI, tailored to regional priorities and cooperation mechanisms.
> Track and shape policy developments affecting AI in defense, intelligence, dual-use tech, and export controls, especially those tied to Indo-Pacific security cooperation and defense innovation pathways.
> Coordinate closely with the APAC regional team, and act as a cross-functional connector across OpenAI’s global policy team to align between Asia-Pacific efforts and broader national security strategy.
> Build and sustain senior relationships across Asia-Pacific ministries of defense/foreign affairs, intelligence, and cybersecurity, including across key partner frameworks such as ASEAN, AUKUS, and the Quad, and in relevant national capitals.
> You will be OpenAI’s primary policy representative on matters related to defense, security, and AI policy across the region, positioning OpenAI as a trusted partner for national security stakeholders across allied and partner governments, regional multilateral fora, and key security institutions.
Here's a curious job description

Anthropic are opening a Sydney office later this year and are looking to hire a public policy expert

I happen to know that OpenAI have just completed hiring for their own public policy expert in APAC as well

I could have gotten a copy of the incident report summary but I had wiped my work laptop's disk cache before I thought about it
Unfortunately not (I should really start being more professional about this stuff 😅) but *hacker voice* I was able to retrieve a few cached files out of Firefox's disk cache on my phone
I'll see if I have the rest on my desktop at home

Now the two blog posts about the incident have been removed too so I guess we're just going to pretend none of this ever happened.

A photo of an Enterprise Performance Dashboard that contains a bunch of fake graphs and metrics
Sometimes people visit our office and nod at the screens so I stuck this fake dashboard I made onto a TV
I've been asked once, entirely seriously, how the thought leadership score is calculated
Weirdly, the incident summary has now been deleted and is no longer linked anywhere
The "I've always been mentally too far ahead" really does rub the wrong way 😵💫 There's always someone "ahead" of you, you probably just don't know it so I dunno, just enjoy it and don't brag like damn haha
This seems to be the actual person given their Github has computer science course material for the same university that they previously lectured at.
I'm all for testimonials of things you find useful but this is just kind of a weird way to provide it
I've mentioned it before but the issues tab for Claude Code is a fascinating bit of people-watching.
Here's a fresh Github issue, seemingly filed by Academy and Emmy Award winner Perry Kivolowitz, where every field in the bug report is a testimonial for Claude

The author of the review pointed out that the utm_source tracking param is set to "openai" on the review link
The robots.txt for their blog explicitly disallows various OpenAI crawlers at present and probably has since before the feature launched
I wonder if there's a way to have info de-indexed
Yeah, that is true. Even with holidays, 5 days of maintenance is a pretty wild thought for the private tech sector 😄
Apparently ACC are taking down their online services for maintenance from April 2nd - 7th (5 whole days!)
If you click the "Provider" button, it states that Practice Management Systems won't be able to "search ACC client claim history, status, or invoice information"

A few zingers I've personally never heard before
"Financial Frankenstein"
"Energy of a tired snail returning home from a funeral"
"Duck shoving"
"Scuttles for his political funk hole"
"Could go down the Mount Eden sewer and come up cleaner than he went in"

Well, the link is kinda messed up but it still works? It's mentioned on Page 16 of that PDF
Apparently 123.6TB of Parliament TV was consumed from (roughly) December 2024 - December 2025

the ape job hydra you cannot defeat it and it will suck you into a job the more you try to beat it
before you know it, you will have 50 jobs
There's a consultation underway about it, which was mentioned by one of the MPs who encouraged others to vote down the proposal (which originally came from The House of Lords as far as I understand) www.gov.uk/government/c...
Grinding in the content mines (literal)
