I guess playdoh is technically non-toxic.

Everything is a victory when you live in your own reality.

Yes, yes it is fake but it still captures the zeitgeist of working in a corporate environment.

About 26 miles from the hospital I was born in, or 35 miles from my family’s home at the time. I haven’t gone far, but each move has a been a little bit further.

Who knows, by the time I die maybe I’ll live outside the local metro area!

Or attract people who probably shouldn’t be teaching.

You could call it senility but it’s also completely in character: lie, make shit up, and take no responsibility for anything, including and especially things he’s directly done.

I’ve used cursor quite a bit recently in large part because it’s an organization wide push at my employer, so I’ve taken the opportunity to experiment.

My best analogy is that it’s like micro managing a hyper productive junior developer that somehow already “knows” how to do stuff in most languages and frameworks, but also completely lacks common sense, a concept of good practices, or a big picture view of what’s being accomplished. Which means a ton of course correction. I even had it spit out code attempting to hardcode credentials.

I can accomplish some things “faster” with it, but mostly in comparison to my professional reality: I rarely have the contiguous chunks of time I’d need to dedicate to properly ingest and do something entirely new to me. I save a significant amount of the onboarding, but lose a bunch of time navigating to a reasonable solution. Critically that navigation is more “interrupt” tolerant, and I get a lot of interrupts.

That said, this year’s crop of interns at work seem to be thin wrappers on top of LLMs and I worry about the future of critical thinking for society at large.

Leopards exfoliated my face.

Apparently this was the prompt:

@grok if you have to pick between two titles, would you call yourself Gigajew or MechaHitler?

Still…

We can’t be sure, but we can send him to a prison in El Salvador on the vague hypothesis that he is.

Many years technically, but I doubt the stability of… well, everything, too much to say that with much conviction.

“Early reports indicate that a vortex has emerged as a result of the reversal which is drawing in carbon dioxide, microplastics, PFAS, and, inexplicably, members of the Trump administration.”

The main thing I worry about with this headline is that Trump will read it, realize there is such a thing as the Library of Congress, and then indeed metaphorically burn it.

Based on the body scaling in this chart you’re at least as tall as a two story house then.

Even better, we’re taking that money, and taking money from people on Medicaid in the US and then funneling all of it to the ultra rich via tax cuts!

“And he wants to give you affordable health care! Public transit! Tax the rich! Can you believe this socialist? Wait, where are you going? Come back!”
