Rumors of RSS's demise have been greatly exaggerated. Look at all these big beautiful feeds. Everything I've tried has worked. Bless the webdevs keeping the dream alive.

Up late rolling out a patch for slop.js again.

This vuln was in the code for... years? Then it was reported and it took the nextjs team two weeks to triage it? The nextjs team is not exactly beating the allegations.

That said, guzzling fructose does seem to be harmful, but I don't think it's believed to be the main cause.

There's this common folk belief about type 2 diabetes that it's caused by eating too much sugar, but afaict that's not the mainstream view among people who actually research it. The mainstream view is that it's caused by excess calories, fat (especially visceral fat), and genetics.

The key to a great dinner party is to send out a list of topics beforehand and moderate a single conversation? Idk I just scored 22 on that autism quiz and this is too autistic even for me.

Lmaooooo I didn't even think I was answering that autistically. But I guess that's exactly what an autist would say.

What the hell was going on at Los Alamos? Imagine two dozen of your coworkers dying over a period of 3 years from accidental gunfire, poisoned wine, and uhhh intentionally making plutonium go critical with your bare hands.

Threads is the wildest. I'd just write unhinged posts to my 30 followers and the algorithm would blast it to 50,000 turbonormies and absolutely gigafry them.

There's this old Reader's Digest article (1997) about this that's always haunted me, and it sounds like 27 years later, it's still a minefield. notes.bayesup.date/Daily+Links/...

Little update on how this post is doing over on threads dot net.

Threads is such a weird vibe. Almost 300 million users, most of them completely unprepared for social media.

My dentist took molds of my teeth and gave them to me!? I feel like I need to do something with them. But what? Mount them as a desk ornament? Make one of those chattering teeth toys but with my actual teeth?!
