He’s already trying to say they never existed. But then you have his team mentioning it’s on her desk on live TV.
We have pictures of him hanging out. There are flight logs putting them in places. There is damning testimony in the public sphere right now implicating him. It doesn’t seem to be enough.
His name being in a little black book is not going to be enough. Honestly, anything short of a video of him doing unspeakable things first person is probably not going to be enough to change anyone’s mind.

CEOs seem to be particularly susceptible to AI marketing.
I’m kind of in the crux of four decent sized companies and every CEO I see is going gaga over AI.
It’s somewhere in between if you don’t embrace this technology you’ll be left behind and you can Make your workforce many times faster with this one stupid.

TBF, quite a lot of really good food originated in poverty. You don’t have a lot of quality ingredients, so you spend generations finding ways to make shit food taste better on the cheap.

- Comment on Wall Street’s AI Bubble Is Worse Than the 1999 Dot-com Bubble, Warns a Top Economist 2 days ago:
I’m not sure that this line’s up the same way that the tech bubble did back in the day. Right now, they’re firing people by the metric ass tons because AI can make existing people more agile at their jobs.
The collapse of AI might be more like the collapse of the horseless carriage. Do people come back and fill in for all the chatbots now?
- Comment on You can drive 74 hours and still be in Germany. The American mind can't comprehend this. 3 days ago:
-
If you overshoot your destination, do you have to drive another 74 hours to get back to it?
-
If you turn around (going against the circle), does it go up in time?
-
Why did it stop at 74? Why not infinity or 99? I can plot 79 hours from Key West Florida to Anchorage Alaska
What a neat bug.

I didn’t doubt that’s where Prisig was going with it. He just made the character so uninviting, conceited, and self centered that the message itself seemed to get lost. It felt like I was watching a movie where I hated the main character.

Shut the drawer and carry on, it’s a super power.
How do you operate so well in a crisis? I’ve been in crisis mode for 37 years, take the best path and move forward.

expert IT is in good shape it’s entry level that’s hard to break into.
IT/DevOPS geeks (and some developers) are a special case. You spend all your free time ADHD home-labbing new tech and end up bringing that to work.
It’s kind of backward of most other work :)

Man, you and I have seriously different takes on Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance :)
I’m fully on board with self reliance and DIY, but that guy was constantly insufferable to his family and friends just to try to make the point :)
I was reading it and it just annoyed me so I moved over to the audiobook as I often do if I feel I have a bad take on a read, it just made it worse :)

This is the drawer where I keep my various lengths of wire, and this is the compartment where I keep my crippling depression, fears, and anxiety. For the fucking love of satan don’t open that up, I try to forget it exists. The last time I opened it up, it nearly ate me.
No, I’m fine, why do you ask?

- Comment on US | Two guys hated using Comcast, so they built their own fiber ISP 5 days ago:
Running fiber for a small installation kind of warms the heart.
I wonder if some big ISP will roll in there find their IP blocks and start throwing copyright claims at them. Bury them in legal fees than buy them out for a pittance.

To be fair, they’ve been conditioned that atheists are basically guys driving around in unmarked vans offering kids candy because atheism is SUPER bad for their business.
You mean, I don’t have to get up on Sunday, I don’t have to be pressured to give 30% of my salary to the church, and I don’t have to deal with a bunch of racist, immoral pricks dotted around the congregation because they’re there for ‘forgiveness’ and I should be ‘accepting’ of that?

Other than some odd specialized surfactants, most cleaning stuff is soap, alcohol, ammonia, bleach, vinegar, or water. You just have to know what not to mix together (don’t mix bleach and ammonia) and not care that it doesn’t smell like robotic lemons.
I also use sodium hydroxide in certain cases to get grease out of filters and such, turns oil into soap.

We need a hardened autofactory, capable of self-repair and or serious fault tolerance.
Power, protection, temperature stability, something capable of 3d printing without a lot of finish work. How cool would it be to print a new wheel for a rover and install it? Imagine rovers being delivered batteries and solar panels by mini helis…
It’s sci-fi for now, but not impossible.
- Comment on Just.....why? 1 week ago:
I considered a wifi toothbrush for my kids. Teaching them dental hygiene gets harder with age. At some point the youngest started ignoring brush your teeth, I had to hang out near the bathroom to make sure he brushed. I was pondering… you know it home assistant can read the site, I could just have it shit out an alarm if he hasn’t brushed by x hour…
but then he gave in and started brushing

Yup, the convenience if throwing grease down the drain is absolutely nullified by taking a half day to deal with a plumber/landlord/handyman because you can’t flush a turd. Let it cool, pour it into a soda bottle.

I wish they carried it in the markets here. I just looked it up, looks like it’s just Steric Acid. You can buy a whole pound for $15… gonna five that a try.
