Crisply executed template for marking unruly 2x12s to be cut into porch step stringers tomorrow. Each 2x12 will, of course, have its own agenda before, during, and after the cuts; minimizing the layout error is about all you can do to try to keep them in line. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
A long narrow piece of plywood with one zigzaggy edge, resembling upside down stairs, sits on a workbench with various shop detritus in the background.Five pieces of pressure-treated 2x12 sit on a pair of sawhorses, 4 above and 1 below, separated for ventilation (as lip service to the idea that these monsters will lose significant moisture during the current era).

"It's vanishingly improbable that anything long ago actually happened" is a fancy way of saying "nothing that happened before me matters."

THREAD. A collection of photos I have taken of excellent cats I have met on walks. You will find the captions to the photos in the alt text.
A cat on a wall, ranting relatably to me about the way modern TV documentaries are so frantically, pathetically worried about losing the viewer’s attention, employ endless precaps and recaps, lazily emotionally manipulate the viewer with overplayed songs and talk to that viewer as if that viewer is a small child, rather than a fully grown human, or cat.

AI has been foisted upon us, for sure, but one reason it lands with so many is that LLMs *feel like* a solution for loneliness/estrangement/isolation: People who crave feedback and iteration but lack the courage or social capital to get it. Showing a first draft to someone is exposure. /1

I don't know if I've said this before but I think I'm going to have to say it again a whole lot of times: The whole line of argument that "the problem is people are not clear on what they mean by AI" is about as useful as "actually Frankenstein is the name of the scientist not the monster".

Oh, do you like to fantasize that there was a magical time in the past when white men could live their whole long lives like Louis XIV on a diet of Pixy Stix? Guess what, you're in this time where we have real problems so cowboy the fuck up and vote for an adult

Wasn't clear JD was going, but it looks like all Three Stooges are heading back to represent the regime in Pakistan. (Not sure who's Larry, Curly, or Moe out of the bumbling trio of JD, Kushner, & Witkoff; you decide). It's also unclear Iran agrees to re-open talks. 🧾 www.bbc.com/news/live/cl...
