I know people who forget they're alive, It just slips their mind, I guess. But they keep on going… Maybe waiting for somebody to see them. Maybe hoping to come alive again. I don't know, sometimes people just forget. But I am not one of them. From Swimmers (2005) www.imdb.com/title/tt0384...

I'm no AI cheerleader, but I've found it be pretty useful for data-intensive research and processing tasks. For a few months now I've been using the Claude iOS app on my phone to drive tasks on my M1 Mac at home, while I multitask at work. It feels like the future.

Thank you to Gander, Newfoundland for stepping up and showing the world how to act during a national tragedy. The world can never thank you enough for your kind response. Don't worry about the bloviating orange idiot. He will be gone soon. We Americans remember, and we thank you.

Struck up a conversation with a dude next to me at the casino table last weekend. When he learned I worked in tech he asked, "What's the deal with AI? Is it going to take my job?" We're to the point now where random people are worried. I'm not. AI is useful but it's not the answer to everything.

This girl I used to waitress with in Austin, we moved to New York together in 2003 on a literal Greyhound bus. Shared a fifth floor walk-up studio that, when it rained, had more leaks in the ceiling than we had pots and pans. We used to get drunk and smoke off the fire escape and do “sad-offs.”

I can never guess what things I post will get shared a lot; I’m glad people found this a useful summary of the grim reality of the tech tycoons. I said the other day that people usually think I’m crazy for about ~7 years, then they understand what I meant and get very sad and/or angry.

"California Solo" is an excellent film from 2012 that spotlights our messed-up immigration system. It's really well-done, with excellent acting and a good story line.
