Oracle, 29th largest company in the world, led by Larry Ellison, books looking bad, bet huge on AI, tens of billions in negative cash flow, and if the company goes down, there’s a good chance it takes the AI bubble and Skydance down with it.

More and more sites are having to set up defenses from AI bots. It is costly to provide online services and they were not built for bots. One can say that the AI companies are performing a global denial of service attack, which incurs costs to all of their competitors, as well as the rest of […]

in addition to two scratching-related items from Mau Pets, I ordered several things from @lokigwyn's shop on kofi & Redbubble this week. Capitalism but also some good propagandart to share with my niece and my friends ✊🏽 lokipropagand.art/portfolio

i need to see a dermatologist. but every person i see available is in their 20s or 30s. I need to see a person my age! But I guess dermatology is a young person's field? idk. i find it depressing.

My sister in law came up to the cabin this week to see the fall colors. The weather was mostly cold and windy until today so she was able to get the money shot early this morning when the lake was as smooth as glass.

@agoldst I remember starting to apply for it about a decade back because somebody at a Gap or whatever told me I could get a 10% discount as a teacher if I had it. I started the process but then stopped when it asked for my SSN. (NJ benefits required it?? That's awful!! I too was furloughed & […]

keep getting messages from the US Treasury about the move to ID.me. Is there any more 2026 in the US than a shift from .gov to .me? Dot gov used to (purport to) mean non-profit services and protection. Them saying ID.ME adds security is darkly funny to me. I appreciate its sense that the […]

@karlsteel.bsky.social the idea that Zohran is "so good at this" because of what he said about Ackman. He's not the first to say that billionaires spend more on campaigns than they would on taxes.

@cristinalalfar.bsky.social i think a lot of times my response would be “you sound like you have no idea what you’re talking about.” Then how do you teach from there? I hate presentations too. Learning is hard & requires time in solitude & labor. Writing can be part of that labot, but them […]
