It worse when you and your team spend months on something and then management pivots, uses it in ways it was never intended, and then complains when there has to be another project to “fix” it.

Zach’s got enough money that his 15 year sentence was suspended. And if he violates the terms less than 12 more times the judge agreed, after his long unexpected vacation to Turks and Caicos, to seal the records.

This is worse than Yodeling in Lo-Fi Mono?

It saddens me a little when I see people that I like still using the bird corpse. Harry is empowering Elon by burning him.

Rich people can get away with anything. Maybe we’re the fools for not connecting this to the Kardashians. Kim, Chloe, and… another one are trying to influence who’ll be Japan’s new prime minister because one of them wants to crack down on influencer tourism.

Oatmeal flavored with a mix of sweet chili sauce and soy sauce or cheerios.

“Joke’s on you Satan, I’ve decided to pivot to immutable OS evangelism.”

Ow! My balls! from Idiocracy

There’s been some stuff coming out lately that makes me think this show isn’t far off.

Ideally it’d be a check that comes close to what they saved from no longer hosting caches themselves.

I’m normally an inbox-zero kind of person, because unaddressed notifications are super stressful for me. But I haven’t used gmail for anything but spam in a several years so this prompted me to go have a look:

3,958 in my inbox - and instead of stress, I love it. Over 1300 of those are because I, apparently, never deleted my xenophobia.com nextdoor account.

The earliest I can think of (from personal experience) is 4GL languages; the early low-code platforms that first started to get traction in the early 80s. They wouldn’t have replaced programmers but some thought/hoped they would usher in an age of “low skill” programmers that companies could get away with paying minimum wage to.

The thing that made me laugh when I saw the article that OP mentions is that it was coming from AWS.

In my testing AWS’s Titan AI is the least useful for figuring out how to do things in AWS. It’s so terrible that Amazon just announced they’re using Claude for Alexa’s upcoming “AI” features.

Got tomorrow off. Might take a nap.

“Fun” fact: The biomass of all the ants in the world is greater than the biomass of all warm blooded (endothermic) animals combined.

If memory serves a 12oz can is just a little under 1/2 calorie.

There was a minor scandal a few years ago where brands like Bryers were injecting air into their ice cream so they could do shinkflation without changing the size of the packaging. But I haven’t noticed anything like that with Tillamook, which we almost always have in the house.

Yeah, I’m hoping to get at why. Drop-shipped disposables took over Juul’s market in the US and then grew it by about 600%. It was so dramatic (in a business sense) that it’s caused ripples in US and UK trade policy, and I just assumed that blitz was happening everywhere.

Out of curiosity, what do you think Berlin’s secret is in this regard? Like, do people naturally not litter e-waste, or are there easier recycling options, import restrictions, or enforced litter laws?

Its nice to see what my own version of hell is going to be like.
