In the winter it gets dark so they know it’s time to sleep, but in the summer they are still buzzing in their beds because the sun is still out.

Having kids who all want to rush out right after a meal and play in the sunset has me REEEEEEEAAAALLLLY hating daylight saving time. There’s no cooldown, no drifting to a restful time. It’s playplayplayplayplay bedtime if we’re lucky, but more likely is a full shower regimen because they’re sweaty.

A year ago, I thought LLMs were kind of neat but not that useful. I saw the code autocomplete and thought, meh. Last summer just flipped. I never ever thought I would see automated code generation like we see now. I know there’s baggage but you need to know the coders are being real about this
Looks like the entire bluesky team is a bunch of jerks. Even their "engineers" are now writing bluesky using AI.
Social media is dead, there's no alternative that is now owned or made by idiots.
Sigh...
I'll have to think about what to do, maybe it's time to disappear from the internet.
I’m comforted in knowing the worst, most nonsensical, mindlessly pro-AI opinions are always available to me at Hacker News, should I ever have the need of frustration
I’ve been trying to learn how to use my new EP-133 and I keep coming across Charlie Puth videos. Is that guy a known creep? He keeps giving me the impression that he’s secretly DMing teenaged girls.

Why, thank you!
I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines.
Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."
Minivan? No, Mickeyvan

Oh, FedEx’s estimated delivery time was inaccurate? Shocking! What a strange and absolutely unique turn of events!
Sorry, you caught me a little out of breath; I’ve just been busy dancing on Sora’s grave

OpenAI is planning to discontinue the app for its Sora video platform, a product it released to great fanfare last year that has since fallen from public view, according to the company. The move is one of a number of steps OpenAI is taking to refocus on business and coding functions ahead of a potential initial public offering as soon as the fourth quarter of this year. CEO Sam Altman announced the changes to staff on Tuesday, writing that the company would wind down products that use its video models. In addition to the consumer app, OpenAI is also discontinuing a version of Sora for developers and won’t support video functionality inside ChatGPT, either.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has relinquished direct oversight of the company’s safety and security teams so he can focus on raising capital, supply chains and “building datacenters at unprecedented scale,” he told staff on Tuesday. At the same time, he said the company had completed the initial development of its next major AI model, codenamed Spud, and would wind down the Sora AI video mobile app, which employees had complained was a drag on the company’s computing resources during a time of heightened competition with foes such as Anthropic and Google.
Both the Wall Street Journal and The Information confirming that OpenAI is killing Sora - both the app and *access to its video-generating model for developers*. This is a huge move that suggests things are a bit desperate

Oh no, and right when Meta’s Metaverse announces it’s being shut down :( poor rich people
thanks to AI our slow and humiliating national suicide will be punctuated by visual media that is so good even a dog could jack off to it

My newsletter today is about @katmabu.bsky.social's campaign.
Democrats keep asking how to reach voters who've given up on the party. Kat Abughazaleh spent a year trying to answer that question. She lost, but the answer is still right. www.readtpa.com/p/what-if-we...
Powell: "The thing a good number of people on the committee are concerned about is very very low level of job creation. If you adjust the trend job creation over the past 6 months for what we think is overstatement due to overcounting, effectively there is 0 net job creation in the private sector"
Kat Abughazaleh used her campaign to try a lot of things that the party should been embracing a long time ago. The entire left coalition is better off because she ran.
