  I use the Control D private DNS, which performs similar functions to a pi-hole, but I think is easier to set up.

  It’s wild that in the few instances where the generative AI feature would actually work quite well (summarizing lists of distinct instructions), it often pushes long-form video instead.

  I’ve survived layoffs at companies where we were told that following the cuts, we were going to get leaner and more agile and more efficient.

  I’m sure you’ll be just shocked to learn that what actually happened is I ended up doing twice as much work to pick up the laid off people’s slack, and at the end of the year got a smaller bonus than the previous year, along with a raise that didn’t cover inflation. Overall company profits, of course, hit a record high.

  Say what you will about the entertainment merits of Real Housewives and Kardashian shows, at least the stars of those shows signed up to have their drama exploited for ratings. The producers of shows like Hoarders and Intervention are morally bankrupt. TLC is basically an entire network devoted to turning people’s mental health and addiction crises into spectacle for cheap entertainment, and it’s absolutely disgusting.
