say what you will about AI, always-on voice recording and auto dictation has been a game changer for my workflows. Save post and close app. Yeah Footlong meatball sub on white. No veggies. Don't toast it. Ranch and barbecue sauce. Yeah, ranch and bargecue sauce. More. More. Little more please

Honey stop the car

I’m so annoyed with the Taco Bell finger-pointing that I decided to go there for lunch to support them. I don’t even like Taco Bell very much. Basically what I’m saying is I’m a saint

Many, many years ago I worked for a certain legal news website to which Lindsey Graham subscribed. Anyway i hardcoded it to always spell his name wrong in the top corner, no matter how many times he tried to manually correct it.

Thanks to the schism discourse on here I am now aware of the word "dicastery." Rather than look up what it means, though, I've decided to just believe it's the place where Hot Wheels are made

I feel a weird sense of survivors guilt mixed with solidarity. I'm not sure if I'm part of these particular numbers, but in May I found out my position is being eliminated in January. I couldn't tell you if it's better knowing ahead of time or not, but personally knowing SO many of the people -

Do you think people with dually pickups will get mad if I compliment them on their trucks’ “child-bearing hips?”

Brands, take note. If you don't get the response you want at first, you can ALWAYS TRY YELLING

Sounds about right. I feel like the near 50-50 Techbro/Neo-Luddite and Hopepilled/Doomer splits explain a lot about me. It’s been forever since I’ve taken one of these. If you want to try: britmonkey.com/2020s-politi...

When people on bsky talk about how everyone on here is 38 years old, I get dark feelings, because I’m 44. What’s the social network for 44 year olds? Please don’t say it’s Facebook.

Sound on if you want to hear the crows chasing this coyote off our (their) turf.

Bleps

Gmail, what in the ever-loving fuck are we doing here? Oh wait, sorry, it's cool, they're "for research use only – not for human consumption." I didn't realize.

Would you believe this cat is almost 19 years old?

I see everything I love crumbling to dust before my eyes BUT: there is a bird near my house that goes “chirby chirby chirby” and that is wonderful

I am convinced recipe writers are saying everything should take half an hour to cook just to make me feel incompetent when an hour has gone by and I’m still prepping

We used to program computers. Now we summon their capricious spirits and ask them nicely not to mention goblins too much. An upgrade, we can all agree I’m sure

“Never talk about goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, pigeons, or other animals or creatures unless it is absolutely and unambiguously relevant,” reads OpenAI's coding agent instructions. www.wired.com/story/openai...

Onomatopoeia. I’m a good speller but I’ll be dead before that one sinks in.

Having lovely people to seriously spoil me on my birthday makes getting egregiously old a lot easier

Me lying in bed doomscrolling: *repeatedly falls asleep spontaneously and drops phone on head* Me putting down my phone, closing my eyes, and actually trying to sleep: *becomes more awake than at any time during the actual day; alternates between worrying about everyone and writing code in head*

I was working on a few blog posts about LLMs, but then @aphyr.com started his series "The Future of Everything is Lies, I Guess" and said everything I wanted to say – better than I could – and then some. Looks like the series is done now. They're all so good: aphyr.com/posts/411-th...

I keep saying “there are no great consumer AI products” and people keep replying to me with like model capability updates and wild OpenClaw setups and I really fear Software Brain is irreversible

Nothing like having 11 job interviews in a week to remind me that interviewing is a *completely different skill* than doing the job you're interviewing for. The same is true for being the interviewer, test-taking, teaching, and probably a hundred other things. So I shouldn't be surprised, but...whew

mild take: we're watching silicon valley get very excited about their tools in the same way a guy with a huge wall of ryobi stuff thinks his collection is more important than what he does with the tools

mavis beacon did not teach you typing so you could make such terrible posts

I keep hearing people say "for the love of all that is holy, do not deploy on Vercel." If I want to put up a low volume web app with a very tiny backend, where *should* I host it in 2026?
