Left school in Boston. Got a job in Rhode Island. Nine months in and I got bored. Started looking at jobs on Craigslist. Didn’t find anything local. Started scrolling down the cities in the right column. Made it alphabetically down to Seattle. Never been.

Got the job, moved.

Lived here for 15 years. Bought a house, met my wife. Found a place where I feel like I always belonged.

I don’t understand, why wouldn’t the AI simply write its own version of whatever software it needs to license?

None Park with Left Beef.

Bought it in 2018. Tried to convince him to buy a Kia.

Guy randomly stopped me to ask me how I like my Model 3 when I was getting out of it in a parking lot last week. First time that’s happened in like 6 years.

PSSST

“It’s pronounced PS/2”

Yeah, like who hasn’t ended up in a Waffle House with no idea how they got there?

I thought VR/AR would be farther along. There was a pitch 10 years ago that VR would be the “final platform” in that anything a phone, TV, tablet, or computer could do could be easily emulated in VR.

Unfortunately it’s still all walled gardens. Also nobody wants to wear that shit for more than an hour.

There’s a remote job listing on LinkedIn right now for $125/hr to train an AI how to do schematic capture and layout. Like it’s right in the listing that you’re training an AI to do your job. Insanity.

My whole friend group stopped trusting Meta a few years ago, so I got everyone on Matrix-Synapse instead of WhatsApp.

I just set it up on my homeserver. Everyone just calls it “Element” and has no idea how it works, but the UI is familiar and easy to use.

Trying to work on Pixelfed, but most interesting photos just get shared on Matrix anyway.

My iPhone’s Safari crashed multiple times. Granted, it’s an iPhone 11, but still.

Christ the ads on that site.

Definitely not Mandela, but maybe it’s something Google never officially confirmed.

Here’s an article about Ingress, the spiritual predecessor to PkmnGo. https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21628936-200-why-googles-ingress-game-is-a-data-gold-mine/

I’d bet the average American doesn’t even know what color gasoline is.

I feel like this was common knowledge back in 2016. Is this surprising to anyone?

Gasoline.

How many other toxic and highly volatile chemicals do we let 15 year olds squirt out of a hose with no supervision? Hell, we even have little TVs to distract them while they do it.

And you realize that it’s taking a while to delete that small handful of files.

Ironically, the three trades you listed are in high demand right now specifically because of the rapid rollout of the data centers needed to power AI.
