I don't care about football, but finding out what happened in the Superbowl only via memes and tweets is fun, like a puzzle. So far: - Some people are salty about the grass - The halftime show had platforms that looked like a smash bros stage - There were some controversial calls

The world needs fewer people shouting robot while walking in front of their robot carts, and more robot carts equipped with speakers playing smooth jazz

I knew a girl once who coded the best backdoors. She'd give them out for free, but recently she's moved to selling them. If you go to Venice Beach she has a stall near the pier. That's right. She sells C shells on the sea shore.

We as a society should just agree to celebrate enough holidays to have one every other week. Insert some to commemorate important things, maybe a few frivolous ones for good measure. The three day weekends would be *glorious*

This is horrifying, and I’m going to thread resources below about how you can help in this situation and/or what resources you can use if you’re an affirming parent or educator in Texas right now

Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers. He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.

I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of startup pitch meetings and then asked it to re-create a startup pitch meeting of its own. Here is the first page.

People keep using "the 20s" to refer to a decade that inherited a global respiratory pandemic, then lots of things got seemingly better before getting much, much worse, and I think we should all agree to refer to the present decade as the 203rd decade BCE, to avoid any confusion

Some day when I have kids, I want to teach them that the day after Thanksgiving is the day it's tradition to study the remnants of the eastern Roman empire, and that's why, in the week leading up to it, everyone wishes them a happy Turkey Day.

Kojima signing his own sample copy of a director's cut re-release of Death Stranding is the most Kojima thing ever. He'll never change and that makes me so happy.
