Highly recommend Seiichi Makino and Michio Tsutsui's A Dictionary of {Basic, Intermediate, Advanced} Japanese Grammar. They are an essential learning resource for serious JLPT N3 to N1 learners.

The culmination of hundreds years of human scientific and technological advancements isn't to ask Deep Thought about "The meaning of life, the universe, and everything". It is to ask Big Tech / Big AI "Grok, put her in a bikini."

Shouldn't there be a reasonable maximum age limit for US Presidents, just like there is a minimum age limit of 35 years? We ask very old people to give up driving a car for safety reasons, yet we allow dementia-stricken Presidents and their sycophantic handlers control over nuclear weapons.

Vibe coding is just coding using a "prompt programming language" (PPL) to a preprocessor which non-deterministically outputs code that is often wrong, because the PPL itself is ambiguous.

"Your options are rare, medium, well done." -- A House of Dynamite (2025) Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Noah Oppenheim are geniuses. This movie hits too close home for comfort. With the current geopolitical tensions it is even more worrying. It is a wonder we're still alive in this timeline.

Making a movie is like trying to solve a giant jigsaw puzzle whose pieces are in various stages of making, all the while constantly running out of cardboard material and dealing with broken scissors.

Voting in the 🇩🇪 German Federal Elections felt like having to choose between the Bad, the Ugly, and the Evil. Everything on the ballot is currently absolutely unpalatable. At least, it was a sunny warm Sunday; a much welcome change from last week's freezing cold gloom.

Re-watching Space:1999 Season 1 as a long term Star Trek aficionado feels like cheating on my fave franchise, but in my current gloomy and pensive state of mind, I do feel the need for this kind of deep existential vibes.
