Coda @codahale.com · 24/09/2026I know y’all are clowning on Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality but there’s a plot arc where Harry is trying to manifest his patronus and it’s a surprisingly touching and emotional scene when he finally does and it’s a brilliant, shining waifu pillow 030

Coda @codahale.com · 19/09/2026The great thing about the new Siri is that it continues listening, so after you say “set a timer for two minutes”, it picks up the constant stream of gibberish your kid is saying and then decides it doesn’t know what the fuck you want and cancels out 030

Coda @codahale.com · 30/08/2026I liked it a lot better when the ML algorithms doing weird shit just had floating point values and matrices as intermediate values to puzzle over.
