iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I'm thrilled to hear you're back at work on Phoenix! I'm very much looking forward to its launch. (and also glad you were able to take the time you needed for family)

omg that explains it! when I bought my instant pot (pre-pandemic) their customer service was fantastic. I recently contacted them with an issue and all they were willing to say was "that's out of warranty". (I know that. I wanted to find out if it was fixable, not free to fix)

vscodium doesn't ship with the AI built in, but it's still installable. (not sure if that's helpful.) vscodium.com

is anyone else finding today's 4x3 excruciatingly difficult?

I have this feeling every time a new Knives Out gets announced. We get an uncountable number of southern white man mysteries but they cancel the kick-ass autistic black woman

I found one several days ago *much* more difficult. I didn't think this one was bad at all.

I'm not sure there's anything more Boomer Dad coded than "Tom Hanks does WWII history" so you may be doomed.

Free idea for any (national) politician look to prove union bonafides: Put forth a repeal of Taft-Hartley. It's something that would make a meaningful step towards empowering unions in an era when they continue to be under attack.

I'm less bothered by creamy dip on Dominos as it's not real pizza.

idk how it works at other institutions, but at the one I'm most familiar with, the institution relies on taking in that money as part of (trying to) balance its budget. (so the company *is* paying, just not the students)

I mean, there's a legitimate place in education for, say, a senior engineering capstone. but that's clearly *not* what this is...

is this Monday night's TRMS or bonus content (with some of it airing in Monday night's broadcast)?

I'm really looking forward to Phoenix (by the person/team who did Tweetbot) but there was a delay in production for personal reasons.

@hankgreen.bsky.social selfishly, I want Nerdcon to be in Boston (again) as it makes it much easier for me to attend.

amazing! (well, depressing, but exciting to see even more interesting "The Body" content.) thanks for clarifying

Sara @sararielle.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

quick question: is this the same "The Body" episode released on Patreon? (if so, it was fantastic! I just have already listened to it.)

who are these people? I think that sounds *fascinating*! (also, can we have both? bc they both sound really interesting)

as if Hershey's chocolate wasn't disappointing enough? thankfully, there are far better pb cups on the market these days so I don't need to rely on Reese's for my fix. (added bonus: better brands are often made with slave free chocolate)

I have been doing this for years and I'm totally hooked. I learned it from "Thai Iced Tea", which I also adore.

I'm amused that we're getting all of these Doomsday teasers despite not yet having *anything* (afaik) for the SpiderMan movie that comes out almost 6mos earlier. (I know the crossovers are bigger films, but still!)

it is 2025 and the fact that, for many services (utilities, insurance, etc), the *only* way to contact them is via phone is ridiculous. Even if you don't have a chat available (let alone *human* chat), I should at least be able to *send an email* to be read [by a human] during business hours.

then he should've gone elsewhere. presumably tenure at MIT should've been enough to get him a job at some institution where he could believe the students wanted to be there. (I have no trouble believing most students wanted to learn something from the class.)

Sara @sararielle.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

given the institution, I have no trouble believing that

I've been eagerly awaiting the annual @nytimes.com Puzzles section (my parents get paper delivery). Surprised I hadn't seen it yet, I googled to see when it was releasing this year. I discovered it was supposed to arrive weeks ago but we never got ours. Has anyone seen them? (is this us or broader?)
