So @… announced an upgrade for #ActionText with "No #Trix".
I made a simple logic tree to help me work out if I want/desire #AI to be added to a site, application, program, OS, or literally any other thing in my life.

Raiders Urged to Bring Back Former DT Amid Christian Wilkins Concerns https://heavy.com/sports/nfl/las-vegas-raiders/raiders-urged-to-bring-back-former-dt/?adt_ei=[email]
Low key struggling in knowing what to wear for our weather here in the UK. It looked like rain earlier, so I put a thin jacket over my tee, and nope... it didn't rain, but became too hot for the jacket.
Didn't look like rain just now, so I put a thin hoodie on over my tee, and again... too hot.
I know that if I don't take some kind of hoodie or jacket out, it will suddenly rain or get super cold 😎 ⛄ 🌧 😕
Maybe it's time to start taking my pink Pusheen umbrella around with me ☔
On Albion EU right now in "Highland Cross Marketplace" part of Martlock's beginner area
they are not selling T7 Pork Pies at all...so here presents itself an opportunity...
I could sell I dunno, depending on price, 20% the price I buy em with from Martlock. I could start at 50 items or less...and then we'll see...
25 in the chest and 25 that I put inside the marketplace...so now I'm going to Martlock...to buy and then return with the sell order...
The linked article here (ht @… for the link) is a really good list.
Fellow Fedi fans, quit splaining in people’s replies why these things are unfixable and/or Actually Good and start frigging thinking about how to fix them.

How to Talk to Loved Ones About #Psychedelics
Do you think it's time for mom to #trip? Here's how to start the conversation.
Oh hey, it's #ScreenshotSaturday , here's the latest mockup from the video game adaptation of Battle of Tarot I'm working on with some lovely people.
Everything is still a work-in-progress and not final at all, but trying to get the visual style nailed down.

You know it's coming, but you just never know. I was lucky to see Brian solo once, it was a magical show. RIP to this legend. I don't even know how to start with how much I love the Beach Boys. I've talked about it many times on here, how I really got into them in my teens, my parents had tapes (I wrote about my love for Wild Honey here:

Hello – my name is Nathan Sage, and I am the Democrat running for Senate against Republican Joni Ernst here in Iowa.
I was raised in a trailer park. Growing up, that got me called a lot of names. After enough times, it’s easy to start to believe it yourself.
We were poor. I never imagined a better life until a military recruiter said that I could maybe one day graduate college.
After I got home from Iraq, I worked nights to support my family while the GI Bill paid for colle…
I keep posting about how the AI hype bubble makes it almost impossible to have a reasonable conversation about LLMs, and it’s only when the bubble bursts that we can start thinking realistically about what if anything LLMs are actually good for in writing code.
That seems to be what Fred is getting at here: the massive gap between the hype and the reality means that the affordances of these tools fit neither the task at hand nor the tool’s own capabilities.

AVON: If I can fire at ground level, the beam radiation should be great enough to cut a narrow channel through the sensor mesh. That would give you eight seconds to get from here to the blockhouse. The mesh would start its repair cycle instantly. Take one step off the channel and you're dead. I know it's a slim chance, but it's the best I can come up with.

A year ago today, I was in SuperCam operations, and about to head to the airport to start my cross-country flying adventure to see the total solar eclipse.
Today I’m in SuperCam ops, but I have other evening plans.

uspolitics, trump
I keep seeing smart people writing stuff like
> [the US] kept peace through strength balanced with restraint, and wielded influence through culture, values, and diplomacy
I understand that #Trump is terrible and some people feel tempted to idealize what they had before him, but we should be more discerning, or otherwise it becomes impossible to understand how this happened in the first place.
Let's start with some questions:
- peace where? and for who? was it true peace, or "Pax Romana"?
- are we going to take seriously that statement on "restraint"? after all the lies, internal witch hunting, sanctions, coups, wars, invasions, genocides, and last but not least, 2 unnecessary nuclear strikes on Japan?
Now, on "culture, values, and diplomacy". Sure. Why not. Not everything was going to be bad, right?
But the thing is, abusive husbands aren't bad all the time either. From time to time they know how to be sweet and seem to care: one present here, flowers the next day, a little bit of gaslighting, and fake apologies after that "accidental" slap.
Given enough time (if the wife is still alive), at some point the victim decides to leave, and then all hell breaks loose. Trump is the manifestation of that moment. He does not represent a change in #USA's nature, but a hidden side that was "always" there, just waiting to play its role.
Others believe this is because #US citizens have been intentionally dumbed down by a combination of propaganda and a disfunctional education system, and I'm sure it's partly true... But let's see what many of their most brilliant and educated citizens are choosing to do with their lives today: https://sfstandard.com/2025/03/12/stanford-students-want-in-on-the-military-tech-gold-rush/
So, all I'm asking is: please drop the act. It was always a clusterfuck.
Thanks for the thoughtful replies. Answers to questions:
Many people asked for the context. This is for college students using what they already know about the order of arithmetic operations to start analyzing the structure of code. In the activity, they visual code structures using these kind of diagrams. The important thing here is thus not just subtraction; it’s this way of visualizing the relationships — and there already is a sight-centeric word, “visualize!” But I suspect a blind reader could also use these spatial relationships as a learning tool…if there were a good way of conveying the spatial relationships.
