Sunday morning tea: Ju Duo Zai (2024), a Fenghuang dancong tea. Did I know what a dancong was before I tried this? Well, I knew it was a wulong tea. Success?
A cup of wulong tea. There is a tea tray with a teapot and other accoutrements in the background.

SI = an obscure term that no one, especially no one in the scientific or technological fields, has ever heard of before; totally means "super intelligence", trust me

Sunday morning tea: Jin Jun Mei (2025), a black tea from the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian. I've drunk Wuyi rock teas before, but I don't think I've drunk black teas from there before. I'm trying to get used to brewing tea in my gaiwan. I definitely steeped this one too long.

Yeah AI is one of those artifacts of modern civilization that present an illusion of sentience as a way to distract from its deleterious effect on the world, much like brand accounts in social media or podcasters.

I've seen a lot of software developers talking about why they don't want to use LLMs to code. Usually their reasons are to do with code quality, &c. And then there's Jake Wharton on JetBrains' YouTube channel saying: "They're built on the largest copyright infringement in history."

Fine, I may have succumbed to the lure of new teaware. In my defence, I had some specific holes in my teaware collection.
A white, plain gaiwan and two handmade teacups. One of the teacups is made of white porcelain, the other one is beige ceramic. There are five bags of tea in the background.

As a newly-minted Computer Science student, there's something dystopian in the way businesses are centered at universities now. I don't remember it being this bad 20 years ago when I was studying English, though maybe CS was always prone to this more than the humanities. I don't know.

When the NHS talk about “concerns regarding referral appropriateness” they mean they want cis people to have more control over our bodies. But I take the much simpler stance that if someone wants to change sex that’s their business. Like abortion or fertility help it should be fast and on demand.

I'm in @evernote.bsky.social account cancellation hell. Cancelling requires email verification code -- which they'll send, but only after the code has expired. Contacting support results in crickets chirping (except for the feedback form they send later).

I don't expect realistic hockey from fanfic. I don't even know what realistic hockey would be, beyond what one inevitably absorbs when one lives in a hockey-obsessed country. But ffs, are fic authors totally incapable of checking basic facts???

What @thene.bsky.social says here is, I think, the most important bit: "I’m disappointed that so many people chose to join a social media pile-on against a queer book that they had not read, based on evidence that they had not seen. You would think this would be a known hazard by now."

So embarrassing when people think the point of reading a novel is to know the plot, so a summary is just as good. The plot isn’t important, you rube. You absolute simpleton. The point of reading a novel is to find out what the characters are eating and start thinking about what you want for dinner.

Is it just me or are hairdressers actually afraid to cut hair short enough if for people who look like women? Because I've had that problem since I first cut my hair short when I was 13.

I love Melissa Scott's Astreiant novels, so I decided to read Water Horse, and it was so good that I immediately picked up The Master of Samar and it was... even better? Somehow? The best fantasy novel I've read in a while. 5/5, no notes.

What does publishing own for itself when it relies so heavily on specific audiences/platforms—when those users grow tired of that app, or more likely, that app stops existing. The industry's oriented itself around blockbuster-ness, which...doesn't feel sustainable. Bad for writers, bad for readers.

I also hate that every discussion of a book now has to be framed as a REVIEW. I want to talk about books, and that does not always mean reducing that conversation to evaluation. Reviews/critique have a place, but they can’t be the only end goal

Some years ago I attempted to explain to a newbie coder that computers couldn't actully think so she could not replace the formal for-loop syntax with her own, natural language one. I'm having a major case of déjà vu.
