This mixed metaphor isn't very polished yet. It's a good start, but it's still a duckling in the rough.

Someday my children will ask me why anyone ever took seriously the thought that systems like this had anything to do with AGI. I honestly have no idea how I will answer. Mass delusion? (Example emailed to me by a friend.)

"Instant ramen sales are up massively! It must be because we are so good at making instant ramen, and no other thing."
Sales at top ramen maker Nissin surge 41%

ALT Sales at top ramen maker Nissin surge 41%

Cup Noodles and Top Ramen maker Nissin reported a 41% year-over-year increase in sales during the final quarter of 2022, which indicates its continued growth in the shelf-stable noodles category. The company’s upward trajectory during the past several years was first aided by the pandemic spike in ramen sales in 2020. The company has attributed the rise in sales to the growing popularity of its premium and spicy offerings, such as Cup Noodles Hot & Spicy and Stir Fry flavors. It also made a multi-million dollar investment into its Lancaster, Pennsylvania distribution center, which the company said expanded its capacity by 15%.

IN MY DAY THE PLAYGROUNDS WERE MADE OF STEEL AND CHAINMAIL Yeah, we know. They used to build playgrounds for robot children not real children. This was largely in anticipation of the robot takeover which never came thanks to the valiant efforts of an unsung band of heroes.

Want to be an extra in a movie I am working on? Let me know! Here's a form with the dates : forms.gle/h55n5bT5mrgmroC69 There's no pay, but I do have a few "featured extra" bits, and there will probably be some cold pizza and good times. It's an indie sci fi comedy.

This is (not) fun. Looks like a security researcher using ChatGPT to construct the explanations for a vuln report… …and doesn’t have the additional insight/wherewithal to know it’s gibberish

Seeing the good news about Kissinger is perhaps the only thing my father would really have missed being able to see from the last few years.

I think if we did a series of huge audits — focusing on tech companies, digital publications, conferences, & academic journals — to look for fake authors, fake speakers, nonexistent software & tools, etc, the findings would shake the foundation of every institution in the world.

You see that Gen X, we are coming for you! ... We are coming for your home ownership rates in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Lots of Xers were 35-40 in 2008, which is the only reason 40 year old Millennials are catching up with 40 year old Xers. Neat and good.

For people who were born after 1980, do they tend to earn less than their parents’ generation? And what about rates of homeownership—are they less likely to own a house? ow.ly/E1eY50Q7zNX
A line chart shows how five generations of workers without a college education fared in terms of homeownership rates, from ages 18 to mid-60s.

It is said that "luck" is when preparation meets opportunity. As I seem to only have one or the other at non overlapping moments, I find myself quite unlucky lately and it is more frustrating than I can put in words that my efforts at preparation always seem out of sync.

If you really look at humans, it was wildly improbable that we were ever going to make it this far. Maybe rather than being surprised that society feels like it's crumbling, we should just climb back up into the trees and have a good story to tell about our time in the ground.

Anybody know a cinematographer who wants to work on an indie feature this weekend? I have a shoot scheduled and my cinematographer became unavailable and cancelled on short notice and I am scrambling to cover. It's low budget.

Hurray! #DaylightSavingTime
An old fashioned steam engine painted teal and covered in glowing smoke alarms. It's barreling through space. A dog namted potato in an astronaut helmet and a frog in a firefighter helmet ride the train too. Potato says, "Potato to Corginia! Come in, Corginia!" The frog says, "Tell them you're bringing a frog in a hat!" The text reads: Change your smoke alarm batteries this weekend! Replace your smoke alarm every 10 years!

Oh my god. Copy pasting messages from a convo in one @SlackHQ to another conversation in another Slack on iOS is a UX nightmare. …Copy text->swipe to home->swipe to slack list->2nd slack home->find convo->paste->swipe to home->swipe to slack list->1st slack home->find convo…
