Nothing quite like finding a race condition in code that's been live for a year on a website you work on. Found it in literally seconds just from glancing through the code for something related. A capable dev wrote it, a senior dev approved it. Do I need to code review everything my team works on? 😩

isn't it so cool that you're reading these words and now you're thinking about an idea that wasn't there before? you were scrolling along or whatever and then BAM new thought, new POV. what other creatures just gather around and exchange thoughts and ideas to entertain their big brains like humans?

idc what you say, we learned to automate physical space, why shouldn't we automate words? do you know how much time we save with automation! or how much fun it is talking with something that has near-limitless knowledge that can help us develop ideas or be creative!

As a software engineer I really resent the general public calling the "spicy autocorrect shittifier" the phrase "artificial intelligence". It's a specific type - Generative AI. Different from voice assistants, computer and machine vision, video game enemy behavior... AI has been around awhile. 😩

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

Last time the U.S. invaded Canada, the White House ended up burned down. Don’t mistake politeness for passivity, you hoser.

on one side of the USA snowstorms are raging and knocking out power and water. on the other side wind is spreading wildfires and burning down LA.

Starting 2025 in a chill mood with no plans or care in the world. Likely going to be another terrible year, so not gonna stress about that or anything yet. Life can go back to being soul-sucking after the holiday season is officially over.

I'm going to start reblogging I mean reposting anything I want on here and no one can stop me and by no one I mean me I'm the problem
