Pedestrians have actually figured out that they can just walk in front of the Waymo and it'll abruptly stop. It's over. I'm going to be so late.

You know you're an old school Linux user when. you still try to use `ifconfig` and get a "command not found" error, followed by a moment of silent grief 🤬.

I got this one wrong. Can't break out of prison if you're already out on work release. (I don't want to know what "work" she might be doing.).

The funniest outcome is not suicide but Mossad breaking her out of minimum security.

Compared to the real work LLMs can do, AI image and video generation seems mostly frivolous. I just realized that Anthropic is the only major AI company to resist offering image generation.

Policy is being made autocratically by the President, he has the attention span of a fruit fly, and he's for sale. The good news is that it's never been easier to influence policy. Want mRNA back? Just make a solid gold plaque and give it to him. Problem solved.

Tim Cook also shows that a CEO can protect his company in the current political environment without going full Nazi. Obviously this is much easier when the company is massively profitable and had mostly pro-consumer practices to begin with.

I mildly criticized a startup and the CEO blocked me. And apparently the company is doing OK so he could have just said I'm wrong but he chose to block.
