When ads became more important than search results. The more searches you need to attempt, the more ads they get to auction off companies who are still dumb enough to think search ads work.

Affordable healthy food.

Also on the opposite of healthy, I miss cheap grocery store lemon crème cookies. Fuck those lemon Oreo rip-offs.

I get your point and joke, but I don’t want my tax money going to gerrymandered politicians that want to imprison women because of their private health decisions.

If you haven’t gotten one already, brace for late condolences cards from places like your vet or animal hospital.

Those were hard on us when we got them weeks later.

Unless it’s in the Bible Belt, Florida or Texas.

What about seconds?

PFAS is gonna fuck us, but simultaneously is super useful. Not much modern indoor plumbing works without ptfe paste/tape somewhere.

I wonder if it’s one of the great filters.

It’s not AI. It’s LLMs that don’t actually think in any meaningful way. They just repeat what they have ingested. And was most mathematically likely.

That’s why imma pessimist about LLMs doing anything truly revolutionary. They’re another productivity tool to solve problems that shouldn’t exist in the first place and middle-managment loves it for the same fucking reason.

VCs are bosses in the private ones.

36 month loans are rookie numbers. They’re selling the big expensive trucks on 72month loans.

More than 1/3 of auto loans are over 6 years and they end up paying more that 80% more interest.

He’s been telling us what an asshole he is for the last 10 years.

Yeah plus less risk of fires makes it even more worth it.

Yeah, black mold is what’s stopping me from doing this, or at least the threat of it, hopefully.

I think demeaning or belittling are the old timey terms for the same behavior. Negging is just the term when it’s used as a strategy by incel/pickup culture assholes.

It cost $32,000! That’s $120,000 in now money, it was like luxury car money or small house in the sticks money.

One of Apple’s early tricks was efficient board designs with low chip counts that let the charge less (I know, it’s hard to imagine now). The Macintosh was many of the same features, a friendlier design, and cost $2500, which was still really nice used car money in 1985.

You both get taxed on the $10 income unless you can write off the $10 you gave each other as a business expense.

This side’s odds don’t look great then.

I’m starting to seriously wonder if ChatGPT is actually running OpenAI. It would explained Altman’s constant lying and telling people what they want to hear.

Or he’s just another tech asshole.

This is probably what it felt like to the first explorers trying to cross either pole.

They eat the important bits before the bacteria and viruses can get to ‘em.
