Calling the RFK Jr diarrhea strain “MAHA Blast” since it has now evidently infiltrated Taco Bell
It’s like when your food is taking a long time to come out so your server brings some free bread to apologize for the wait.
I don’t think I realized exactly how much of my love of making art was sapped from me with AI. It’s not like I intentionally made that choice, it just felt like I couldn’t share my work anymore. I didn’t want it to be fed into AI to train it. So I stopped sharing, but then I stopped making too.
It’s wild that we’ve let people add microtransactions to work, and we’re all just sitting here assuming it’ll stay budget-friendly forever.
I am exasperated with people accusing programmers of "gatekeeping" programming. We were practically dragging people through the gate. Do you know why a mindless LLM can tell you so much great programming information? It's because we've been sharing that information for free online for decades.
I don’t understand how people can run for office knowing they have insane baggage and/or crimes. Like I spent the entire campaign expecting AIPAC to somehow dig up my middle school livejournal fanfic account. I prepared my family for it. I’m still amazed it didn’t happen.
Today the good people of the world commemorate the passing of Google Reader thirteen short years ago on July 1, 2013. To honor their memory (and in lieu of flowers) please add an RSS/Atom/JSON feed to your web site and keep building a web that connects people in meaningful and positive ways.
I got a cheapo elliptical and it's good but we have to do something about these brand names. Don't make me say "I'm gonna hit the pooboo" or "It's pooboo time." Even now, I'm pooboo posting
While you were at the club, I studied Egg Value + Goose Value
i fear we have no choice but to fill the reflecting pool with beans
We made little soundtracks! Literally little. A 7” vinyl and a set of teeny tiny adorable Mini CDs.
Blanche has been whistling the tunes that play in her parlor the past few days and thought perhaps others would like to listen too. From @play.date to your stereo, the Carte Blanche Original Soundtrack is now available on 7" vinyl and 3" Mini CD (and downloadables). www.youtube.com/watch?v=rafs...

You can tell a project's nearing the end when you've reached this stage.
These images posted by the Claude Code team are so amusing to me not because the perfect architecture is just Claude talking to Claude talking to Claude but instead that you have layers of Claudes whose job is to fix the errors and hallucinations of the other Claudes.
look. is everything more expensive now? yes. but you have to look on the bright side too. now every time you open a computer, it doesn't work
2016 web developer worries: "man, divs really are hard to center!" 2026 web developer worries: "there are 639 compromised npm package versions in tonight’s Mini Shai-Hulud wave"
How many years of our lives have been wasted away because someone had a KPI to increase usage of some dumb feature, and they chose the most user-hostile way to increase it. (I'm thinking a lot of Copilot right now btw)

As a guy with half a trillion dollars, I have lots of options: 1. Enjoy a 100% stress-free life doing whatever I please in unfathomable luxury all over the world with people of my choosing 2. Have 87 meltdowns a day on a website
One of the Artemis astronauts stood up immediately after splashdown and started collecting his carryon bags even though he was seated in the back row of the capsule.
Imagine escaping from the Earth and then finding out you have to come back.
