Vibe coding a decomp is so funny man. Who is that for. Why would you think I’d want that. I have emulators already you’re not bringing anything to the table.

This week: southern Britain has too little water; this map projection has far too much. But first: in praise of inefficiency.

for the past 48 hours I've been trying to participate in that Attraction Study that went viral, but I keep getting "try again later" or "this page is not set up to run this program," which, in Dr. Greenberg's defense, is a pretty astonishingly accurate summation of my dating life. Impressive stuff
If you are a man with a profession that puts you anywhere in the public eye or in a position of authority over anyone, and you have a baby, i firmly believe it is your duty to take paternity leave. Be a good example.
Nooo Tucker don’t launch a spoiler third party you’re so creepy haha
It's Education Monday over on FRAGMENTS, and instead of the ongoing series on AI and the Analogue Classroom, I have some notes on the recent controversy surrounding Hank Green.
But it's not *really* about the video, itself. I look at Hank's disclosed use of AI, and I try to make the argument that--even assuming a PERFECT, 100% ETHICAL LLM and a PERFECT prompter--a person in his position should not be using an LLM for research robsecundus.substack.com/p/concerning...

LIV MORGAN IN A TAKASHI MIIKE FLICK?????????
First look at Liv Morgan in the first trailer of Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo
I get that the role fell out of sync with the time in the late 2000s, but the absolutely desolate space of web journalism has circled back around to working for the character. A photojournalist getting paid pennies by digital outlets while hounding them all for the money they contractually owe him?
Spider-Man hasn't fully left the Daily Bugle behind because J. Jonah Jameson is one of the all-time support cast members, but Peter Parker has been removed from being a photojournalist for so long that I do really miss it as a flavor.
