Underrated use of #AI: When arriving jet lagged and weary from a transatlantic flight and you come upon a sign saying the train you need to take is out of service... 😥 Snap a picture of that sign, snap a picture of the train board, and ask it, "Now what?" 😎

Sign taped onto train ticket machine that says "From 26-09 to 27-09 NO intercity direct trains to Rotterdam Central DO NOT BUY SUPPLEMENT TICKET"

A photograph of the Schipol Railway Station board showing all train arrival / departure times.

ChatGPT's response, which says to take the 13:13 Intercity to Dordrecht and get off on the Rotterdam Central stop.

I think I’ve finally figured out my problem! I’m stuck in one of those mobile game ads where the absolute *dumbest* disembodied floating hand is solely responsible for my health and safety. 😂

It turns out the key to digital communication with a teenager is to move it from texting to Snapchat. 😬 Before: “ok” or “ya” or “bro” 😂 After: We are maintaining a “snap streak” by sending silly pictures to each other every day, and having discussions about Teen Titans and sour grapes. 🥹

Hands-down, one of the most unambiguously useful uses of #AI is for stuff like this: "Please provide a short bio (2-3 sentences) that will be read to introduce you on the show." UGHHHGHGHHG I absolutely hate talking about myself SO much, and delegating this kind of thing to robots is the best. 😍

This *extremely* serious deck I'm building for volunteers for @temporal.io's upcoming Replay Conference replay.temporal.io is coming along nicely.

Slide title: If you have not yet...

Slide content: Please check your Google Calendar invites ASAP and CONFIRM or DENY your shifts!

(Then there are three images of the pink, circular Kirby Nintendo character)

[checkmark] = HAPPY Kirby! — An image of a jumping and smily Kirby
[x] = SAD Kirby! — A Kirby who looks mopey and sad
??? = ANXIOUS Kirby (the worst kind) — A screaming Kirby with stress lines

Oh ok, so this actually happened today (well, “weird unexplained health crap” and the “identifying ‘the vitamin’” part, we shall see on the rest) Hey kids, get your iron and b12 levels tested! 😅

Tumblr post by Cordeliaflyte — My deepest darkest fantasy is that I collapse on the street and I am rushed to the hospital. They perform a bunch of tests and find out I am severely deficient in some kind of vitamin and I become the happiest cleverest person alive because all my problems were caused by this one deficiency

Reply by caracallope — Moreover, everyone gathers around to be tremulously compassionate and discreetly admiring: all this time, you lacked the Vitamin? And yet you persevered?

Dumb but practical uses of #AI, what time is the clan event in my stupid mobile game? 🤣

ChatGPT is asked to interpret the event countdown shown in an uploaded screenshot (2 days, 9 hours, 43 minutes, 6 seconds) and add it to the current time in Pacific (US/CA) time, resulting in January 31, 2026 at 6:01:08 AM Pacific.

I am *extremely* curious about the specific sequence of events that led to the addition of this sentence, which one would *think* is self-evident. 😂😂😂

Recipe instructions read:

In a small microwave bowl or small pan over low heat, warm plum sauce.

Tip: Skip this step if you don’t want to warm plum sauce.

Lung crackles no longer crackling, this might be ACTUAL progress this time lol

Ok I’m sorry folks, I know #AI can be problematic but sometimes #ChatGPT is just so *fucking* funny. 🤣🤣🤣 (Context: it was saying i should make like a Victorian on a chaise and recline a lot over the next few days to help recover from pneumonia.)

Prompt: “Hm now that you mention it I am severely underinvested in chaises”

Response: “This is an unforgivable gap in your portfolio, frankly.

Given recent events, a chaise would have delivered:
• superior dramatic reclining
• dignified coughing
• a place to gesture weakly and say “I shall recover, eventually”
• excellent surfaces for strategic brooding and asking incisive medical questions

A couch says “I’m resting.”
A chaise says “I am *convalescing*.”

Think of it not as furniture, but as infrastructure.”

RIGHT?! Feeling so betrayed.

Also I like that these hopefully miracle antibiotic pills are Drupal blue lol

So “concerning lung noise” got worse and went down to urgent care. Achievement Unlocked: Pneumonia wooooo 😩 Hopefully tho meds will clear it up within a week? 🤞

3 important learnings here: 1. NEVER. RELAX. 2 weeks of PTO? Body: “NOPE here’s some unscheduled maintenance FUCK YOU” 2. NEVER EAT HEALTHY. Introduce protein, fibre, and vegetables? LOOK WHAT HAPPENS. 3. NEVER HYDRATE. 6 drops of water per week? Fine. Tea+broth+water = walking mucus factory. 😉

Ok, Chest Shit™️ has now moved up to Sinus Shit™️ so either I’m (hopefully?) finally starting to get a bit better? Else, I guess I’ll need to look into places that do both lung AND head transplants. 🤪

Ok day 187 or something (probably actually 12 😝) means we pull out the BIG GUNS which means we go “outside” amongst “people” (ugh, the worst) and grab ingredients for my favourite sick time soup: www.spendwithpennies.com/instant-pot-... TUNE IN to see if there’s a miraculous recovery! (One hopes.)

Neat! Never heard of either of them but looks like they sell them in Canada so I’ll give them a go!

Sadly, also no. 😭 Back to fluids again, argh. But at least these fluids are tasty and soothing on a sore throat. I swear once I’m finally better I am NEVER drinking tea ever again in my entire life. 😂

Sadly Turtles did not seem to be the miracle cure; next up: Kinder Bueno Minis. We acquired these from a nice family from a “buy nothing” facebook group in exchange for a frozen turkey, which was meant to be turkey SLICES in our grocery order. 😂 Will this chain of silly errors result in healing?

Excellent, I look forward to corroborating your research! 😋

webchick @webchick.bsky.social · 26/12/2025

Spending the holidays doing important scientific research on unconventional cures for rotten chest colds since tea, soup, and water ain’t cutting it. Could this regular box of Turtles be hiding a miracle cure? So far the answer is no, so obviously the answer must be found in eating MORE Turtles. 😂

A fun new way that AI is screwing things up: because of a *massive* volume of training data on older code, it'll recommend things that are no longer relevant. And because those things were deprecated / removed long ago, it's sometimes no longer possible to edit official sources to correct them. :(
