The first time I got a corporate sales email, I felt so important. Now? 😑

The Onion finalizing its acquisition of InfoWars and John Ternus being named Apple’s CEO, what a Monday!

I’m never as homesick as when I’m sick and away from home

Yeah, it should be self explanatory and if it can’t, it should be designed with exploration in mind

Maybe they can rebrand like how Pizza Hut became “The Hut” for a little while

There’s nothing more boomer than saying “thank you for your attention to this matter” and signing your posts

An advertisement for a nose hair trimmer with a closeup photo of a nostril with an unrealistic amount of unrealistically long hairs dangling out. The headline is “Dad’s Tip For Trimming Nose Hair”

Ads really don’t want you to forget how old you are

NASA is shooting for the moon. A guide to the Artemis II mission It's humanity's first flight to the moon since 1972. In a throwback to Apollo, NASA's Artemis II mission will send four astronauts on a lunar fly-around.

I often start posts, messages, and emails, only to delete them. I think I imagine everyone is as inundated as I am and don’t want to add to the clutter

What a cool idea!

Living in Austin and being around robotaxis pretty regularly, I feel safer around them than the average human driver. But when you hear stories about them blocking traffic or not understanding how to stop for school busses, it really ruins things.

Yeah, the hypocrisy is really bad.

It sounds like you’re drawing a direct correlation between people’s willingness to admit culpability and selflessness with their belief in an afterlife?

Hold my coffee

That’s how rice is too

Angine de poitrine - Tout le monde en parle 2026 YouTube video by Télécino Webtélé

My mom once told me that seeing The Beatles on Ed Sullivan was like seeing space aliens who had come to visit, and I think of this when I see what Angine de Poitrine is doing. The spectacle is a great hook, but there's depth to the music, and the whole package feels so right for right now.

The future is here

I liked that one too, but my favorite is how the shape smiles when you land a perfect jump

Captain America sat backwards on a chair like a camp counsellor

So your boss built a prototype on the train...

The sugar analogy is a good one. I’ve found myself wondering from how high up at Apple the demand for something “sweeter” came, and what the business goal was. My uninformed guess was to hook younger people with higher desires and tolerances.

Those are some bangers

I loved reading this. That said… Uncle Knut!?

Should We Respect LLMs? A Cross-Lingual Study on the Influence of Prompt Politeness on LLM Performance We investigate the impact of politeness levels in prompts on the performance of large language models (LLMs).

Rude prompts = worse outputs (more errors, bias)

Overly polite prompts don’t help much

Best results come from moderate politeness

Effects vary across languages and cultures

I'm eager to get out of the era where my only references are from children's shows and stuff from ≥3 years ago

Was about to make a reference to the Yo Gabba Gabba song "I like bugs", because get it? We're finding bugs.

Made a “how is babby formed” reference in a QA session today and that’s how I know I’m old

The Hideout Coffee House and Theatre to close after 26 years; final performances this week The final performance is scheduled for March 21 before operations move to a new location on North Lamar Boulevard.

Sad to see the Hideout Coffee House and Theater being forced to move, due to a new building owner predictably wanting to do something else with the space

Really can’t follow accounts that make a habit of posting like 7 times an hour. I wish when looking at profiles and evaluating if you want to follow, it would automatically find their average for you.
