Russell at Wyse, for those keeping score at home.

There's a lot of years in Google Street View but not so many recent ones... it looks like the pole was hit between 2017 and 2022 and has been leaning further since 2022

the corner of my 2020 M1 MacBook Air, with pitting and rounded edges, i promise that this was just from having my hand in EXACTLY the same position every day for six years.  there's a little bit of pitting under my right hand as well but this here is from my "trackpad scrolling hand"

whenever we make a tofurkey or a sham for a holiday dinner we make sure to save some of it to make hot sandwiches. the closer the bread to Wonder Bread the better. it's all just an excuse for gravy anyway

a side by side of the old and new Captain Highliner mascots. The old one has an aged, wrinkled face like you'd expect of a sea captain, a fisherman's hat and a thick turtleneck.  the new one probably moisturizes, has a neatly trimmed mustache and beard, thick hair, no hat, and a bare neck, and looks more like a greying model than someone that works on a boat for a living.

the (real) storefront of Daisy's Diner in Park Slope, Brooklyn, whose vintage neon sign is spelled D-A-I-S-E-Y even though everything else about the place spells it D-A-I-S-Y.

Also there's an orange cone outside.

Short-term risk that just occurred to me re: Claude Mythos:

If you’re a state or non-state actor with some zero-days you’ve been sitting on, you may conclude now is the time to use them before you lose them.

Let’s hope this isn’t the case.

The models getting really good at software is going to have a lot of unforeseen consequences. And a year from now there's a good chance they'll be 5-10x better than this. x.com/sporadica/st...
