My job is to sit down and enter "Now?" into a computer terminal, which randomly responds "No" or "Yes". I repeat this task for nine hours a day, and twice a month they pay me for the number of Yeses I got. I am quite skilled at this and often speak at professional seminars. Lately I've been very sad

I think my most genuinely unpopular take is that a widely held and genuine consumer preference for cheaper, lower-quality goods, not private equity, is driving the decline in quality of consumer goods like clothing and housewares.

Here are 58 words of prompts to GPT-5.6 Pro that got the model to discover that the long-standing Dinitz-Garg-Goemans conjecture is false. Increasingly, prompt crafting is over-rated, ask for what you want. (Which itself can be a hard problem)

I have 3 axioms that help me decide when to talk to people I disagree with: 1. To debate a subject is to concede that the subject is debatable. 2. To reason with a person is to concede that the person is reasonable. 3. To ask for evidence of a claim is to concede that the claim might be true.

Lunacy. Here's Emmer 10 years ago.

A decade ago, Emmer created a Congressional Somalia Caucus with then-U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison. When people in St. Cloud called for a moratorium on Somali immigrants, he pushed back, calling the proposed ban “un-American.”

“If you’re asking me how I feel about immigrant populations who are in this country legally, and who are actually trying to find a better way for themselves and their families, I support it wholeheartedly,” he said at a town hall in 2015.

Minnesota has the largest population of Somali-Americans in the U.S.

I've expanded the graph. Personally, mine veers a little towards Coach Dad, but remains firmly in The Lawn Zone™

The graph above, with colored zones of different types of dad.

Strongest Touching Grass, in order from Trekkie to sports fan: last remaining Sharper Image customer, mandatory yearly fishing trip, Coach Dad.

Leans Touching Grass to true neutral, from Trekkie to sports fan: still wants to be John Wayne when he grows up, still goes to see rock bands with multiple dead members, The Lawn Zone (trademark).

Big Bookshelf half of graph, from Trekkie to sports fan: don't touch Daddy's minifigures they're not toys, has a favorite war, your father is in the garage, baseball autism corner.

No one agrees on what sound a pig makes. And if I'm being honest our own "oink" is one of the worst answers.

a simple graph I made in Photoshop based on what I googled do NOT get mad at me and go "hey dumbass actually in this language it's some slight regional variation", anyways

What sound does a pig make?

English: Oink
French: Groin
Italian: Gruf
German: Grunz
Spanish: Oinc
Swedish: Noff
Dutch: Knor
Korean: Kkul
Japanese: Buu
Mandarin Chinese: Heng

We do not spend nearly enough time talking about the fact that the foil freaks from Reynolds Wrap built a deep-submergence vehicle to prove the utility of aluminum construction and then we had to use it to recover a hydrogen bomb that the US military lost at sea.

A submarine built by the company that makes aluminum foil.

Their hope is raw, their courage is real. The heart of Europe is beating in Budapest tonight. 🇭🇺❤️🇪🇺
