David Fry @davidfry.com · 8hI'm still floored by this Microsoft Copilot ad, the sheer hubris to make claims so obviously false. The target of that ad is not, as it would seem, small business owners. The target is AI skeptics. This is a politician telling the rubes, "I can solve inflation on day one. $1 pizza for everyone!" 000
David Fry @davidfry.com · 21hMicrosoft is running an ad where the elderly owner of an independent pizzeria wants to "bring back the $1 slice" so Copilot looks through his spreadsheets and tells him how to make it profitable. OK sure. "AI is here to help with your magical thinking" is probably as honest an ad as you could make. 183

David Fry @davidfry.com · 25/09/2026Chalk this one up to "Everything is gender now." Small dogs are great friends, easier to care for than larger dogs, and they tend to live longer. I've gotten 19+ years of love and companionship with Petunia and 12 with Daisy. None of that has to do with gender. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09...telegraph.co.uk 030

David Fry @davidfry.com · 16/09/2026Transphobes have 2 defining traits: arrogance and lack of empathy. If you can't put yourself in another person's shoes, and wouldn't bother to if you could, then you become incapable of understanding the desires and opinions of others. Bari Weiss is a failure because of hubris and indifference. 130

David Fry @davidfry.com · 09/09/2026It's probably an unpopular opinion, but I think all the fiddling with the clock in the final seconds makes the ending of football and basketball games annoying. But overturning a result a week after the game ends will be a huge pain for the sports bookies, so we should do it more often. 020

David Fry @davidfry.com · 04/09/2026In my mind an ideology is mostly just an outlook on how a community or the world could be a better place. In that sense, charities aren't "captured by ideology." Giving to charity is just one way to budget your wealth according to your values. But that assumes you want the world to be better. 130

David Fry @davidfry.com · 24/08/2026The last 4 years have been such an anomaly that it's hard not to think we've already passed some sort of tipping point with climate change.

David Fry @davidfry.com · 22/08/2026It seems like philosophy departments have become a dumping ground for right wing shitbags like Nathan Cofnas who have no special intellect, experience or knowledge, but still want to have credibility.

David Fry @davidfry.com · 17/08/2026"We're focused on November 3rd, Not January 3rd" is an absurd talking point.
