This may still be my favorite meme/life advice:
Text over the top of an image of a Viking warrior in an iron helm and rough red cloak:
“Picke your battles. Pick fewer than that. Put some battles back. That’s still too many battles.”

I'm usually a fan of 0-based counting, but not like this. Never like this.

My brother's name is Claude. At first, when people talked about the AI, my mind went to a picture of my brother. Now, with all the content about it, when Mum says "Claude", I have the AI in mind. Is there a support group for "I know an actual human named Claude and the AI is messing with me" ?

Made very few changes to the latest build and was thinking maybe I'll be able to ship this one without incrementing the shame version (last number in a version number) and 2 minutes into testing, it's already getting bumped.
A graphic showing "Pride Versioning" where the first number is the Proud Version. Then second is the Default Version. And the last number is the Shame Version.

3-panel comic from Aram J French from mandatoryrollerscoaster.com:
First panel:
Grey hoodie guy talking to brown sweater guy: "We invented a robot that answers questions."

Second panel:
Grey hoodie guy (standing next to robot): "We just have to feed it 10 baby giraffes a day."

Third panel:
Brown sweater guy: "But it answers the questions correctly?"
Grey hoodie guy (making a face as if it was obvious): "Oh my goodness, no. No no no no no"

I don't like posting every time I make a new blog post, as it feels a bit spammy. So I've made a separate account to do the spam for me: @posts.chameth.com! Figuring out how to poke the PDS from scratch was a bit harder than it probably should be (I'm about to close 16 different tabs...)
