keithzg @keithzg.ca · 01/10/2026No joke, it's sad that even homeless eccentrics have gotten hooked on AI. Wonderful weirdos who might've found themselves compelled to scavenge banners and paint wild murals on them, instead just falling into a hole where their fleeting paranoias are being confirmed and elaborated upon by a chatbot. 120

If you have a syntax problem that's fine but the only people who do are "people using a programming language they are bad at". 166
