The gasoline? Don't worry about it. It's the receipt that'll kill you.

Delta Air Lines now uses AI to price flights - The Points Guy Delta is incorporating artificial intelligence into its revenue management systems that dictate airfare.

Sounds like a bad Mel Brooks movie.

First time I've ever seen the month/year/date format used.

I'm looking for the Black Mirror disclaimer on the page but I can't seem to find it.

I'll say it again: All music-on-hold loops should have a "wait in silence" option.

I like to stay informed so I really should be watching the address to congress. But I just can’t take watching that treasonous baboon.

What's a word you can't type no matter how many times you have tried? For me, it's "platform." I've been writing about technology for 30 years and it still comes out "platofrm" every single time.

It's the San Francisco Grand Prix!

Good idea, LinkedIn.

If Facebook was proud of eliminating fact-checking in favor of “Community Notes,” and moving content moderator jobs from California to Texas, it would not have made the announcement in the middle of CES when the tech press is scrambling to cover massive amounts of AI and gadget news.

This earthquake alert actually popped up 30 seconds before I felt the shaking start. Granted, the shaking I felt here, 200 miles from Humboldt, was very minor, but still... this kind of early alert was just a pipe dream when I was a kid. I hope everyone up in Humboldt is ok.

Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky The blue bird is dead. Long live the blue sky.

I have been looking for a new community to replace Twitter. For a while I thought it'd be Threads, but I don't want to entrust my online persona to yet another smarmy billionaire. I'm glad BlueSky is getting traction. Hope we can make it work. I miss having 40,000 followers though.

Tech Etiquette: The Real Reason You Need to be Polite to Alexa Do you need to say “please” and “thank you” to a voice-bot like Alexa, Siri, or Google Home?

When I wrote my "Do you have to be polite to AIs?" story back in 2017, I didn't make the connection to Pascal's Wager. I wish I had. @stevenlevy.bsky.social got it. We should call it Levy's Wager.

Well that was a fun evening. Gogol Bordello movie and music at Great American Music Hall

And how's it going for ya?
