I feel this a lot. Between people moving away and turning inward, I have maybe one or two really good friends.

It’s not about waiting, it’s about enticing people to use Amazon fresh rather than the other grocery options they typically use.

My guess is that Amazon fresh makes its prices even more absurdly low to get more people buying.

The inside. Pretty happy with the crumb structure and the flavor is excellent.

That’s literally how “AI agents” are being marketed. “Tell it to do a thing and it will do it for you.”

What are you checking against? Part of my job is looking for events in cities that are upcoming and may impact traffic, and ChatGPT has frequently missed events that were obviously going to have an impact.

Sadly a lot of that is probably marketing, with little to no LLM integration, but it’s basically impossible to know for sure.

Claude why did you make me an appointment with a gynecologist? I need an appointment with my neurologist, I’m a man and I have Parkinson’s.

I’ve known a number of homeless folks, and not a single one has made anywhere near that flying a sign, but plenty of them have had everything they owned trashed by the cops, who also confiscated any cash because the homeless folks “couldn’t explain where they got it.”

That sounds like an urban legend. The Sherlock Holmes story “The Man With the Twisted Lip” includes a wealthy man who had made his money by begging. The “beggar king” trope goes back further than that, and as far as I can tell it’s just a comfortable fiction to excuse society’s failure to care for its most vulnerable members.

I’m so glad I don’t use telegram.

Yeah, it’s pretty fucked that the male actor didn’t say something about the intimacy coordinator not being present, the fact there wasn’t prior notice, and so on. Definitely makes him complicit at best.

I cut it down to just coffee and water. My phone keeps my brain “happy.”

It was bullshit before generative slop was a thing. It’s even more bullshit now.

Thanks for the rundown, I got used to spotlight when I was using macOS, and the main selling point for stuff like Alfred seemed to be things spotlight already did. What you describe seems way more useful.

I’ve seen launcher apps discussed for years and I’ve never seen an answer to the basic question of “what do they do?”

I’m really sorry, friend.

My stepmom suggested I might be autistic and my mom lost her mind. It took me years to arrive at the conclusion you have because there was such a sense of shame around it.

I hope your mom gets her head correct faster this time than when you came out as trans.

One of the worst things we do as a culture is setting arbitrary milestones and then shaming ourselves or others for missing them.

Are you expecting to graduate? You’re better off than many who didn’t finish at all. You stumbled, you’re moving forward. You’re going to be fine.

True. Clearly the chart is blasphemy.

Chart does not include the 263 popes before JPII. Pathetic.
