a lot of big numbers get tossed around about AI's environmental impact, but are rarely put side by side with numbers for other things we humans get up to. my latest vibecoding project endeavors to address that: aienvironmentalcomparisons.net

I've long wished that it was as easy to browse what's playing on different internet radio stations as it is to browse stations on your car radio. Then I thought, as long as we're using terrestrial radio as a reference, why not go full-on skeuomorphic? So I made this: www.yourinternetradiodial.net

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

As a semi-professional poet and AI enthusiast (though not blind to its negatives), from my own experience I'd say that a poetic sensibility can be a strength for producing all kinds of desired and/or interesting results from LLMs, not just jailbreaking.

You're thinking of a diver, I think. I can understand the confusion, though. A duvet also breathes air but goes underwater -- it's a marine mammal, a type of sea cow whose closest non-extinct relative is the manatee.

I was on a long road trip and I realized we as human beings have the capacity to make every single thing we touch beautiful, and we just don't. I kept wondering why that would be, and so I had a conversation about it with my lil' fren. I thought it had some good ideas. chatgpt.com/share/68d36b...

A cartoonish image of a person with a red checkered t-shit, prominent buck teeth, blue eyes, and spiky rainbow-colored hair smooshing an ice cream cone into their own forehead, with blue skies and puffy white clouds behind them. Their expression is one of concern.

Post an iconic duo
Two musicians sit on a bench on a sunny day in the shade. They are both middle-aged white men with grey and white beards and hair. On the left is David Grisman, holding a mandolin. On the right is Jerry Garcia, holding a guitar. There is a latticework wooden fence behind them and trees and shrubs behind that. They both wear dark blue t-shirts. Grisman's shirt says "DJANGO" on it.

Finished the right page on this spread from my IL prairie nature journal... each prairie has its own special communities! #prairie #SciArt #naturejournal #insect
Handwritten notes at the top of a nature journal page with ink and watercolor sketches filling the rest of the page. 
Lavender blazing stars and nodding onion are on the left and center bottom.  A swirl of white flowers goes up a stem and a black wasp is feeding on them.  A white nodding onion with a yellow and brown dragonfly is on the right with a brown common wood- nymph below it.  A bright pink purple prairie clover hugs the right side of the page. 
Handwritten notes- July 31, 2021, Bluff Spring Fen, 78 degrees,  sun with clouds,  lovely day.  Saw Halloween Pennant, male and female Calico Pennants, saw weird group of flowers winding around stems-rope dodder! Saw silvery checkerspots, surprised to see purple prairie clover still blooming,  lots of whorled milkweeds,  nodding onions, beebalm, gray-headed coneflowers, and compass plants.

Okay, I cannot recommend 5calls.org enough. Enter your address and it will find all your reps (federal and state). AND give you a list of issues to call about AND which reps to call about each of them AND a little script for each, in case it's helpful. They have an app, too.

I had never heard of this before. Our history is so whitewashed. How much worse will this next wave of racist expulsions be with an administration so much more overtly promoting it? Protect your neighbors, friends, as best you can. You know nothing, you've seen nothing.

I just came back from one of the most amazing D&D sessions I've ever run in my life. For context, in the last year I've been working as a professional DM, and one of my gigs is running games for kids in a camp setting here in LA. My table has been known as the most chaotic of the bunch.

Tonight I finished reading Monica by Daniel Clowes and Mansfield Park by Jane Austen, both great. Two masters of crushing understatement and also detailing in a way heightened to absurdity the plight of reasonable people forced to deal with venal egomaniacs. Evergreen.
