If you weren't creative enough to do something before AI please don't start doing it with AI. Glares at AI generated music.
Are ya'll ready for a version of US capitalism in which products are stamped with nonAI sort of like the nonGMO fad? Or do we think dumbo will end us all before then?
Free business idea. Pizza Bialys. Pizza bagels are too doughy, but bialy dough is basically pizza dough already. It’s a round slice for people who don’t want crust. Crust-haters might be an underserved market. Someone should feed these weirdos.
If your product pitch is "Here's two things wrong with Kubernetes that we fix with our platform that isn't Kubernetes" and you don't address ALL the things your platform DOESN'T do that k8s does or at least call out the niche where your platform should be used in place of k8s... please do better.
I ran into the tech teacher while picking up the kids at school (k-8th grade) and offered to donate a pile of mini servers I have laying around. She was like “no thanks”. To which I replied “you don’t want to teach any Linux” and her response killed me. “I want them to be happy” 🤣
Decades later my degree in Geophysics is paying off with a simple dinner time question “Quiz me on my science test tomorrow Daddy”. I did not play it cool when we got to the basics of sedimentary vs igneous vs metamorphic rocks. Bowen’s reaction series graphs were drawn. Eyes were rolled.
Silly project I put together this morning to help me take one massive band practice video and break it down into a video per song. github.com/knee-berts/r...

What do you call the type of person who can go a year without booze as long as they don’t go out where other friends have a drink?
In my happy place waiting for things to kick off. Looks like Trey is testing, or trolling us nerds, a new dumble.
Live at 5, pyromaniac gets burned to death while trying to set fire to a gas station.
Watched this interesting talk on how Facebook is converting Slurm to run on k8s and chuckled a bit when they said "we wrote a wrapper cli around helm in rust to we could abstract helm from the researchers" This is a hilarious application of Rust and I am here for it. youtu.be/UJJ5a2B5S4k?...

Some say AI is sycophantically buttering humans up to please them. I say they are just seasoning their dinner.
AI has only exasperated the true bottleneck in software engineering, PR review.
Lately I can’t seem to get away from tech people talking about how important they are. Phish shows, baseball game, fucking grocery store. NO ONE GIVES A SHIT! Find something more interesting to relate with people about.
Friendly reminder that 95 Glen Falls Reba is the best Reba of all time.
No better way to celebrate Father’s Day than to have a morning jam session in which I’m crushed by the talent of my daughter and sister.
The fascination folks have with slapping a UI in front of some automation as the panacea to big company computer problems continues to make me grumpy.
I'm in a funk. I know I need to be grateful for the general state of my life, but faaack I am struggling to ignore all the nonsense around me and focus on the good right now. I think I need an entire year off the grid.

Much respect and gratitude to anyone who has lost a family member who was serving.
Question for my friends that are San Francisco “aware”. What kind of fun thank you gift could I get sent to someone’s house that is foodie adjacent?
