“Why is AI helping me write a song or tell a story? Send some shit through a black hole; do something that we can’t do. Or dig a ditch; do the shit we don’t want to do. Why is it coming after the stuff that we essentially need to do to be human beings?” www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Attacking a data center like it’s The Bastille, everyone fleeing with a bushels of RAM to desolder and resolder the chips. One peasant coded guy with a wheelbarrow of SFP+ modules. Manifesting this for 2026.

The decline of democracy is directly tied to the fall of reading, the rise of social media, the death of traditional news media, etc. etc. Couple that with AI, and the imminent death of student learning, and we're about to enter a serious dark age, from which humanity may never recover.

Corey Quinn@quinnypig.com · last yr.AWS certification data leaked in security breach. Before I get incorrected by AWS, yes—Pearson had the breach, but you’re the ones who selected them. You can outsource the work, but not the responsibility. www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit...
I’m switching car insurers, so I logged in to cancel auto-renewal. First they offered £50 to stay, then £100 after rejecting the official offer—all through their web portal. Decent offer, but it feels shady dealing with companies that only give fair prices when you’re halfway out the door.

We're currently witnessing the biggest insider trading heist in US history take place before our very eyes. Trump, his family, and cronies can take long positions in stocks and when he says "tariffs off" they'll make billions. He has the power to destroy or create trillions of $ in minutes.
