This whole thread makes me want to go straight down to generative AI headquarters with a hammer.

I just saw my cat find a comfy spot and curl up for a nap and I thought you know what? That’s a great idea and I’m gonna do it too.

1. #MedievalSky, grab a lifejacket and a seasickness bag, we’re casting off on a thread about the Norman invasion fleet in 1066! 960 years ago, the Normans landed at Pevensey and established a base at the Roman shore fort which was already succumbing to erosion from the sea on its south side. 1/20

The NEC Breakfast Computer PROFESSOR TOAST HYPER 7 was a unique morning-oriented computer designed to sit on a user's nightstand and provide a quick portal into email, local news, and hot fresh toast all in the one unit.

telling that periodically someone would go "man dolly parton can't really be all that" and then they'd go look into it and come back with "actually she's even better than we thought"

I'm 45! But spiritually, on some level, a lot of Bsky people seem to be about 38.

One of the takeaways from Hbomb's vaccine vid that sticks in my mind was just HOW BAD that paper was. Shockingly crap. (That analysis may also be in Brian Deer's book, but to my shame I have not read it.)

Personally I set a lot of store by the "everyone here is 38" theory of Bluesky.

The “best” thing about genAI (the quotes are doing heavy work here) is that it’s really lowered the bar on getting into hand-made art. Literally anything you make is better than ai. There’s never been a better time to throw away your fear and start learning that craft you’ve always wanted to learn.

"What they don’t understand is that social constructs the way we parse reality" - this is the bit which I think means Dean's reaction is unfortunately not silly. And the problem is, even if the doc handles this point competently (😬), headlines like this do a lot of damage on their own. Oh well!

As someone who had to get a private ADHD diagnosis in my 40s after my GP messed up, I'd fully agree with that. Just wish I could believe that [waves hands at everything] In The Current Situation it would be done in good faith.

Mmm. If I thought the documentary makers knew what a social construct actually is, I'd have more faith this was just "silly".
