AI generated list of Apollo Moon landing sites. There are several obvious errors, including made-up names. AI sucks.
This ai list is so bad and full of errors that I am giving it to my Planetary Geology students as an activity - find the mistakes! Everyone knows it was Tom Hanks that walked on the Moon during Apollo 13! Silly ai. 😂
On the last day of training, agents will fight Scorpion and Sub-Zero before moving on to the four-armer half-human, half-dragon Goro.
Yikes!
"Experts whose work it surfaces" is an interesting phrase.
Aside: Did they ever catch those work-surfacers who surfaced some work at the Louvre last year?
Shoes that obviously don't fit, the SNL Wing Pit Hard Slurry Chicken Smoothie manifesting TWICE, and now "couldn't even imagine without AI." I don't yet smell burned toast…
Yeah, not happening.
Spend five minutes in a brainstorm with a dev team and you'll have more ideas than you know what to do with, most of them completely awesome. No one needs a computer spitting out hashed garbage from things that have already been made for that.
What in the world is going on here?

Will have a thread soon about our new paper. I never thought I would do a HZ paper but it turns out the literature had missed some key points of the problem. LPL grad student Kayla Smith led our effort (and her first brown dwarf paper).
Clown event still possible.
Literally one of the jokes in the Pedro Pascal wings skit on SNL a couple of years ago.
I really don't know why we need summaries for text messages anyway, Apple, but…
Clown Event Still Possible.
Just as you'd expect from a Bussard ramjet
The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."
It was 20 years ago today...
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter arrived at Mars with the best camera ever sent to another planet: HiRISE! A massive thanks to all our team @uarizona.bsky.social , JPL and @baesystems.com who keep this adventure going on strong. 😃 #uahirise

(I know that's what it already says, our web person beat me to it.) (I mean that's their job…)
Let me tell you something. Y’all are asking too many damn questions at every point of sale. I have to leave a comment, make a suggestion, donate to a charity, choose a method of payment three times and then multiple choice of ways to get a receipt.
Take the damn money and leave me alone.
😩
So those are brief thoughts. The Dinosaurs is a technically impressive, fun show that I enjoyed watching. It suffers from its narration and narrative style, and from the looks and behaviours of certain of its animal models. But they are outweighed by the good, and I do recommend it overall. 8/8
Netflix promo poster for The Dinosaurus, showing Spinosaurus jaws in shallow water with a shark swimming toward them.
Last night I watched all 4 eps of the new Netflix series The Dinosaurs. I tend not to comment on these kinds of shows as, having worked on them, I find that those people who criticize or critique them have no understanding of the competing pressures and factors inherent to the TV industry... 1/8
🚨 UPDATE: fireball over Europe – 8 March 2026
At 18:55 CET on Sunday, 8 March, a very bright fireball streaked across the skies of Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands, glowing for around six seconds before fragmenting. 🧪🔭

🔍 What we know so far
Fragments are reported to have reached the ground in Koblenz‑Güls (Germany). There are no injuries reported.
Due to its timing and direction, the object was likely not detectable by current large-scale sky surveys.

coh-spar is what I've always heard.
Ah, a Red Potion. Healing. 2d4+2 hp.
Always makes me think of Mark Wing-Davey…
Boooo
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
Had a conversation yesterday with a data security specialist for 50,000 student university who says what keeps him up at night is Antropic Cowork.
“Do not put that on any computer that contains anything you are not prepared to lose.”
