Time for a little wall-mounted Atari 2600 action… at a barcade in Seattle airport
In the middle of a boxing match, under the watchful eye of a referee one boxer clobbers his opponent so hard he falls through the ropes and out of the ring, into the midst of a throng of excited spectators.
Mistigram: definitely one of the biggest splashes made in the new MIST0226 artpack collection is the substantial body of #ASCIIart work, primarily figure studies, drawn by @ascii.mozz.us . This might be the splashiest of them, an adaptation of #GeorgeBellows' 1924 #boxing painting #DempseyAndFirpo.
This feels like a helpful primer for understanding AI in general. It makes programmers more efficient on the front end because they can generate more code. But it makes them less efficient afterwards because it vastly increases the amount of time they spend tweaking and fixing bugs.

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

OpenClaw creator says AI has turned software development from a career to a hobby. For many people this will be true. It’s a big change. Like, a sea change

Just completely nailed Old Guy YouTuber Cadence right out of the gate. Amazing. That's why you pay him the big bucks.
A guy IRL told me he does his podcasts using AI. He writes an outline and has a voice generator that is trained to sound like him and it "writes and records the content." He doesn't make money with this podcast

Vibe coding is ushering in a new era of bespoke, personal apps that can but spun up quickly by someone without any coding experience and then discarded. That's not a bad thing in terms of Getting Shit Done
Started tinkering with the Vision3 bbs reboot only to discover the original repo (by stlalpha) is gone!
