It was nice of the final episode of the Bear to remind us that the real Michelin star is the friends we made along the way Also, that the Beef was the real best restaurant and they were crazy to go away from that

Still trying to understand how Napster got shut down, but Anthropic is going public and still hasn’t paid us authors yet after stealing our work.

I'm not going to quote tweet the obvious engagement bait about Twitter being the place to be, but it's telling that every one of the pieces ignores the CSAM AI and the Nazi owner

My personal AI agent posted my bank details on company Slack. It's made me rethink how I use it.
Shane Mac, the CEO of XMTP Labs, got a rude shock when one of his AI agents posted his monthly bank audit in a company Slack channel.

I harp on this all the time, but there is so much peer reviewed solid evidence that we benefit from small talk with strangers, knowing our neighbours, chatting with our baristas, etc. And I believe that our shift away from that stuff is at the root of all our antisocial behaviour right now.

Talking to strangers is good for us, and a growing number of places have started campaigns, events and programs to kickstart those conversations

People will tell you that it is fun to be angry about sports. That it’s an outlet, and a way to let off steam. I’m telling you that sports anger isn’t a release valve. It’s a heaping shovel of coal into the furnace. If you are angry about sports, you’re probably angry about everything else.

I think a lot of people think the point of sports is that your team will win and then you will be happy. That is not the point of sports. The point of sports is to be sad in a group

- If coin flip is heads, elect to kick or receive. Same if tails, once possessions
- If a field goal is kicked on first possession, team on field must acquiesce

Democrats keep trying to guilt-trip Canadians into backing down. Fuck off. Deal with your own mess. This is your problem to solve, not ours. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
Gallego, the Arizona senator, said the two sides need to figure out how to mutually step down from the current trade tensions, adding that it appeared both Trump and Prime Minister Mark Carney were playing politics when trade talks fell apart last month.
"I'm not asking Mr. Carney to just bend at the knee and give in, but this is the role of diplomacy," Gallego said. "You figure out how to actually start bringing the heat down little by little to a point where you can get to the negotiation table."
Likewise, Maine's governor, Mills, said there need to be "serious negotiations on both sides," and she hopes a third party can sit down with the two countries and make it clear a tariff fight damages both of them.
"The retaliatory tariffs, I can understand why that's happening," Mills said. "I can't say it's not damaging our economy, though."

When you see a politician throwing a minority under the bus, or using them as a scapegoat, remember that if they will do that to them, they will do it to you, it's just a matter of convenience. Either they stand up for all of us, or they will sell out each of us, one at a time.
