tired @joy.bleak.life · 06/09/2026Maybe it's not an entirely fair comparison, but I think it's quite funny that EDM/Dj producer culture is so empty of cultural shibboleths, devoid of much they can relate to with their audience. Metal on the other hand... 000

tired @joy.bleak.life · 26/03/2026until such time as we come up with a better interface for talking to machines, I honestly find it baffling that we: a) apparently don't emphasize this more b) still haven't really made any research progress on this interface more generally. Losing the ability to type through RSI is pretty common. 020
tired @joy.bleak.life · 18/03/2026I guess the premise that the supply shock affecting $/line of code will not affect other operations is pretty questionable in a 5 year time horizon, but seems not super likely to change in the 1 year horizon, and the net effect strikes me as a bunch of folks will move to Ops (and be stressed) 010

tired @joy.bleak.life · 10/05/2025Huh... The audio reader for this article either is insane or is not escaped correctly and somehow evaluating the audio quote maybe? More disconcerting than anything else. I feel kinda weird I don't know more how to diagnose it though. 130
tired @joy.bleak.life · 01/05/2025all the newspapers are posting about the likely risk to importing stuff for kids as if that's important when the real one we risk loosing is right in front of us 120
tired @joy.bleak.life · 09/03/2025There's a lot of valid criticism of Smith's absurdly self-confident takes. But in this, his read of intellectual scaffolding of National Conservatism's backroom ideologists, I think he's worth reading. Not just for the criticism, but for the insight that its a movement failing it's own goals. 020
