i'm not wild about this LP — it's ok, but maybe i should make space on my shelf and spin something new (i mean old) in its place
i paid six bucks for it a few years ago ... i'll bet i could still get a couple bucks for it!
it bears mentioning that paul chambers went to my high school
tommy flanagan is also from detroit, but he didn't go to cass tech, he graduated from northern (as did my father before him)

Filing: West Co, founded by Biz Stone and Evan Sharp, raised $29M; it launched the invite-only social app Tangle, "designed for intentional living", in November (Tim Bradshaw/Financial Times)

Grr and argh.
The people who make government websites generally tend to do a halfway decent job of meeting the spec, but they really really need to learn to push back when the spec is FUCKING STUPID.
Having just completed my "Annual Filing" with Companies House - and why is that even a thing, we're not posting fucking vellum to Victorian clerks who scurry up ladders to deposit the sacred paperwork in the appropriate filing cabinet any more - I got a new scary emai…

I'm still slowly figuring out @… but regardless of that, can we all just pause for a moment and appreciate their filter choice during onboarding? 🤌🏻

My old state just realized I left 2.5 years ago. (Yes, I did the change of address, closed things out, and registered to vote in my new home state.)
I'm quite fond of the issue between the fifth option and the signature it requires, plus the fact that (aside from the zip code and other USPS requirements) this could have looked identical a hundred years ago. No website, email, or phone number. Also note the old convention of two spaces following each period.

There's been some buzz about idols who completely skip the post-concert meet-and-greet and whatever feelings people are sharing about that, but over here, it's Aina Rai Rai, who you think is heading to the meet-and-greet spot after the live, but nope—she ditches it entirely to rush off to a NEO JAPONISM live.
ライブ後に全然特典会にでてこないアイドルがどうとかのお気持ち表明が話題ですが、こちらはライブ後に特典会場所へ向かっているのかと思いきや、特典会を放棄してNEO JAPONISMのライブへ急いで向かっている愛成来来です

Imagine:
You are these parent of an adorable 4-year-old kid. They have made a toy airplane out of spare cardboard. Sadly, during play the wing has fallen off. You, a wise parent, produce a piece of duct tape and tape it back on. Your kid asks: "but what if the tape breaks, or the other wing falls off?" Dutifully, and with a completely serious manner, you duct tape the other wing, and then with a sharpie you write "Please DO NOT fall off!" on each wing. "There," you say, now the wings will not fall off. "
Your child happily returns to their play.
Imagine:
You are boarding a Boeing airplane for an intercontinental flight. Just the other day you were reading news about the emergency exit door falling off a Boeing airplane during flight. Thankfully nobody was injured in that incident, but a passenger could have been sucked out the gap and killed. As you walk down the aisle towards your seat at the back, you notice that around the emergency exit door of this plane, there are some scratch marks. It looks like it might not be 100% seated in place. You see several rolls worth of duct tape slapped onto the gaps between the door and the frame. In sharpie, someone has written "Please DO NOT fall off!" on the duct tape.
This is a post about #Agentic #AI.
To clarify: there are a host of reasons why using Claude Code is unethical in the first place, besides the fact that its a danger to its users. These make it unethical to use it even for a child's-toy-like application. But the source code we've just witnessed in the recent leak is *exactly* this level of "engineering." If you see an app that claims to be "programmed with AI" and it has any possibility of failing in a way that could harm you (for example, if it connects to the internet, meaning that poor programming could allow hackers to take over the device you run it on), my advice is: "Do not use it and warn your friends and family."
P.S. yes, this advice does apply to Microsoft Widows at this point, although that can be a tougher bullet to bite.

I have the feeling my smartphone OS is trying to tell me something. OnePlus, never settle.

One day, these sons of bitches are going to get what’s coming to them. That day, I will be shedding zero tears. I just hope they don’t take the rest of us down with them. And if we keep being complicit and allowing them to act with impunity, I’m afraid that’s exactly what’s going to happen.
