Does crony capitalism make corporations lazy? Instead of pouring money into research and development, American companies do billion dollar stock buybacks. Only reason the can do this is superior technology is banned and Americans are forced to buy outdated tech. electrek.co/2026/09/14/b...

The great shame of Ai is that it is going to standardise English around the world. Right now, billions of children are being told, all at once, adverbs are bad. I absolutely, positively, mildly dislike that. #writingcommunity #writers #5amwritersclub #writing

Rather than buy one new expensive iPad, I am going to buy a couple old iPads and put new batteries in them. Far cheaper, better for the environment, no Ai, and my writing app of choice works perfectly on slightly older models. #5amwritersclub #writers #writingcommunity

Winter is coming and I am torn. I don’t want the stray cat who sometimes sleeps on my porch to spend another winter outside. He used to disappear for months at a time, but he’s here all the time now. For two years, he was so silent and wary, I was sure he was feral. Loud now. 😺 #Caturday #Cats

Inflation is a feature not a bug. For the last 30 years Japan’s inflation rate is so low, it sometimes goes into negative numbers. If this is possible, why does the American government purposely keep inflation and interest rates high enough they hurt but don’t cause rebellion?

Republicans and Democrats need to make sure that they have not been removed from voter rolls. They should vote in person if they can. It’s not just Democrats who will be hurt if the USPS gets involved in the voting by mail controversy. Red leaning purple areas will also be targeted. ✅ In person.

Can you trust Google Docs not to train its own Ai off the book you are writing now? Same question for Microsoft Word, Grammarly, ProWritingAid, and the rest of them. I’m sure they say yes, but how easy is for one line in a user-agreement to change everything. workspace.google.com/products/doc...

QUEEN OF HEARTS (1986) Acrylic - 29” x 19” While Patricia A. McKillip was known for fantasy, Fool’s Run was her only science fiction novel—an indescribably wild ride featuring sisters who share a psychic bond. 1/3 #art #booksky 🪐📚
A gold-faced woman with a red mane dynamically poses in a jumpsuit decorated with in a playing card motif, most prominently featuring hearts. One hand tucks into her belt while the other rests on her leg, propped in a wide relaxed stance. She looks every bit the rock star in her costume. A rack of audio equipment tilts off panel to her right. The background is cool blue except for the window behind her, which blazes red-orange in warm contrast. There an emaciated woman stands with an assault weapon over her shoulder. With rockstar pomp, the queen glances askew at the audience while the prisoner stares disturbingly forward with eyes locked in.

The new Prince album, Timeless, dropped, and I have mixed feelings about it. The mixes sound overproduced and clean. His mixes were warm, a bit muddy, and chaotic. I think the John Lennon re-releases are an optimal format. They give you the original vibe, studio outtakes, and re-imagined versions.

Linux was announced by Linus Torvalds 35 years ago today — humble OS started with 10,000 lines of code but has now grown to 40 million, dominates global infrastructure
The OS would have been known as Freax if one of Torvalds' co-workers hadn't made a last-minute change to the upload.

Ray Bradbury, who was born with an unforgettable name, turns 106 today. He wrote many great stories that were turned into movies and television shows. He may have driven a car at some point in his life but never obtained a driver’s license. He rode a bicycle and saved a fortune on car insurance.
