Looking through one of the four windows of the Orion spacecraft, a tiny crescent Earth is illuminated against the blackness of space and grows smaller as the crew journeys closer to the Moon. Part of the window edge is visible; the rest is darkness. [Alt-text slightly revised from ESA/NASA version]

It's wild how someone can say "I read books" and immediately back down when asked what books they've read.

Telling instead of showing
Telling instead of showing YouTube video by Pop Culture Detective

The film "Sorry, Baby" was one of my favorite films of 2025 and this short from @popdetective.bsky.social is very on point. It's a master class in balancing tone to let serious topics be serious but also let in some levity.

Am I weird for thinking it's creepy to let Google use my emails as training data for their LLM?

I haven’t read the paper, but I have no doubt AI assistance worsens coding skills — just like 3GL languages worsened assembly skills.

But software engineering is not about coding, it’s about solving problems with software. Code has just been the means to this for so long we cannot disentangle them.

One of the reasons I switched to Kagi this year is because their ability to filter out AI slop in results was drastically better than the competition. This just makes me that much more happy I made the switch.

Daft Hands - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger YouTube video by Fr. Eckle Studios

YouTube recommended me Daft Hands today. I remember this when it was new 18 years ago (!) and it makes me nostalgic for the days when viral videos were actually seen by everyone on the platform instead of the siloed bubbles social media creates now.

End of an arrow, showing a split nock and a carbon arrow shaft's end partially split from an arrow shot into it.

Splitting an arrow completely down its shaft is (probably) impossible, but this partial split might be the closest I'll ever get.
