Basically AI allows software engineers to produce shitty code *faster* and in higher volumes which increases the amount time spent on code reviews and revisions nullifying the productivity gained from producing the code in the first place.

Let's see if I've got the volume on blessedly uncensored American Idiot high enough for my watch to yell at me about it

Oh, new "very obviously intentional pairing of songs" combo on Idiot Nation: their 1981 followed by Less Than Jake's She's Gonna Break Soon.

Just read a post saying fiction about bad people has to show them feeling bad for being bad or else it's bad writing and wow did I hit that block button fast.

I had dark mode on because I was trying to see if there was a pattern for how sites handle link hover states (lighter or darker background? does the text color change?) but now I have a headache so it's back to light mode my beloved.

I will admit I don't care for Blink 182 (just not my taste!) but it is truly something to hear a stadium full of people sing to this guy in appreciation of the music he created and the joy he brought to their lives. Impacting so many other humans positively like this has to feel amazing

Spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how Gabriella would think of/refer to the women -- or, well, one of them; I think collectively "ladies" would be fine -- working at the Azalea and ended up with neither an answer nor time to write

The pet store had the discontinued pill pocket flavor Callie likes, so I bought two bags... and then ordered a cheap vacuum sealer to see if I can make them last longer because as soon as you open the bag, you've got like a month before they get dry. 😩

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

I think there were wolves or something in Bambi? Also something in The Little Mermaid. It is unclear which traumatized me first.

I bought a GIR silicone utensil set a while ago and am just getting around to using it and oh my god the ladle. The ladle. I could weep. If you have a Dutch oven you don't want to wreck, you need the ladle.

I expect this change to break things. I do not expect those things to currently be covered by the automated tests, and yet I am running them anyway.

Interestingly, this is why alt was coded into early html - because images were so slow to load so this would convey info while waiting in ye olde dialup tymes.

I was gonna be like, "sure, I'll do the trending topic thing without actually checking on what it actually entails because it's either look at a blorbo or cry right now," and then the gifs menu was like "maybe you'd like this very accurate portrayal of your mood?" and I started to cry anyway!
