Dream: "Self driving cars will have to make split second moral decisions!" Reality: Too fucking stupid to get out of the trash truck's way. It sat there until a remote operator grabbed it and moved it.

Even if you're not a local ya gotta read this.

Oh cool! Wait, Dreamforce. So was it residents trying to get out of SF?

Had to explain Ed Sheeran to the partner. So.... so bland. Coupla Big Freedia tracks was sufficient antidote.

I've started thinking of LLM tools as a really advanced scripting language. It's kind of working for me. Every place I'm running into them, professionally and such, it maps nicely.

Okay, wait a sec, Neuromancer may still hold up because it's actually more Noir than Cyberpunk.

Goddamn, it really does not dissappoint.

'Dirty' can be whatever, but 'filthy' should involve some moisture, in my mind.

Even though I approve my own time off requests I still put "None of your damn business" in the "Reason for time off" field.

I love marketing emails: "Quick one, first_name — are you looking to add four to eight more"

The major maps do this for all sorts of countries all the time, so it's not that big a surprise. But if Google catches a few strays over this, fine with me.

I've actually watched this movie and... yeah. youtu.be/TFsTWqYuRbk?...

LLMs are very good at pulling engineers down the rabbit hole. I feel bad for managers who don't understand their systems well enough to pull them back out.

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

This picture is triggering. I've spent many days in a chair like that (it's for observers) staring at the backs of voters.

A thing that gives me pause about AI is when you search for something specific and technical about the technology it's surrounded by a barrage of noisy nonsense. That's odd.

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Get in losers, we're marking a bunch of LinkedIn "AI Slop".

000

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

There are two wolves inside LinkedIn and one of them is very anti-AI apparently.

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

The data center opposition is fascinating. My attitude, as someone in tech, is sort of anti-data center. There's lots of stuff good about the internet, but we're living in the internet's world now and it kinda sucks. So why not. Stop building data centers. Let's try that.

010

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

I thought LinkedIn was AllIn for AI, so this is kind of fascinating.

"We added AI to our debugger!" Cool, cool. Does it crash less? "..." "We added AI to our debugger!"

I wonder if the Left can dislike Gavin Newsom without getting really gross about it. <checks feed> Nope.

Damn. I can't sum up my thoughts on TED talks any more perfectly than this.

Let's keep taking away streets until they give up.

I mean, ya gotta justify it to the funding agencies with words like "studying ocean habitats" but we all know this deserves funding because it's objectively awesome.

I often get an error when I try to use some random AI add-in. It might be an extension of my power over skateboarders. No skateboarder can land a trick in my presence. I've never seen one succeed in person and suspect I never will.

This doesn't happen when we nominate women. <remembers Kristen Sinema> Goddamnit.

It's wild to me how anti-historical people are. "If Ford had asked people what they wanted, they would have said a faster horse." Yeah, no. There were cars around, but they were expensive. Ford was one of a number trying to make them cheaper. He was just successful at it.

You know, you really couldn't make Birth of a Nation today.

Are we gonna designate a day to laugh at Apple over the Vision Pro debacle or do we just do it separately on our own time?

A rent freeze on rent control units is a pretty mundane technocratic solution.... which means a lot to the people affected, of course. But it's relatively small. Nonetheless, they made the promise, delivered on it and are now making a big deal about it. Brilliant.

<looks around to make sure no one's nearby> Jimmy Carter was also bad at his job.

Sat next to a couple of AI employees at dinner. I wanted to give them advice they wouldn't listen to. "Save most of your windfall. This probably won't happen again for you." "If you need a next job, it won't net you as much. Get used to that idea now." "If you can't keep up, make cheaper friends."

I cancelled a Chase account a couple decades ago because they pissed me off. Now we're getting an account for the company and they are failing to impress once again.

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

This weirdly doesn't bother me much. Because if the White House lawn is open for business, how about Gather of the Juggalos 2029?

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

Going to lock the "You couldn't make Blazing Saddles today" discourse in a room with Stop! That! Train! and see what happens.

Why even today, right now, some chemist is developing the drug Elon Musk is going to overdose on.

Scott Wiener has been much more effective than Connie Chan on progressive priorities, but is somehow not a progressive. Yeah, that's why labels aren't that useful.

010

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

I still weirded out that so many progressives voted for Tom Steyer.

010

Steve G @stevewithag.bsky.social · 03/06/2026

Hey man, I respect your love of Tom Steyer. But I'm not voting for someone who's first elective office would be governor. He says good words, but we have no idea how he'd govern or if he even could. And who knows what the skeletons are. Run for dog catcher, my man. Then we'll talk.

Golly, the "democrats suck" crowd sure is quiet today.

When my son was young at places that smell like popcorn and feet I'd urge him to hold out for real ice cream. It's a lesson they all have to learn.

Trump - yes Biden - obviously, but harder than Trump Harris - no, she practices some martial art I've never heard of Newsom - no, same weird martial art, I bet Patel - probably Jerry Brown - maybe, but I wouldn't bet on it
