I genuinely believe we should go back to software being released on physical media, because being able to push out any old shit via the cloud every other day means every Adobe update introduces bewildering new bugs. If it actually cost them to fuck up maybe they'd care.

RNZ: "Analysis: Threatening to destroy Iran's electricity grid and to reduce the country of 90 million to destitution, US President Donald Trump is shattering precedent by not just accepting but gloating about acts seen as potential war crimes. The consequences for Trump, at least in the near term, are probably none, experts say, as his administration works hard to undermine international institutions tasked with keeping norms."

Why would anyone expect anyone to give a shit about anything

It’s probably the most “this could’ve been a solo Newman album” album yet

You know a company's subscription-cancelling process is egregious when their own help page for finding it looks like a joke.

Engineer builds Al robot that can instantly find Waldo for you 07/08/2024

This remains the funniest AI-related headline I’ve seen. Because it’s acting like humans not being able to find Wally (or Waldo) was some great, cosmic burden that we couldn't solve, not it being the fucking point of the entertainment.

Jonathan Karl @jonkarl Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack. "The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

Lord Bebo @MyLordBebo # LMAO: Your taxpayer money destroyed your grandfather's taxpayer money! Israeli jets (funded by your taxes) destroyed Iranian F-4/F-5 jets (funded by your grandpa's taxes). Iran received them while the Shah was in power, before 1979.

Spotify says its best developers haven't written a line of code since December, thanks to AI | TechCrunch Spotify credits Claude Code and its internal AI system Honk with speeding up development.

Coincidentally Spotify has been an absolute slog to use for the last few months

Oh no, art is only for commerce or for attention, which at this point, is also commerce. There is no personal practice of art, no intention, no urge to express. They just want to participate in what they see as the production of content, so personally I don’t think they deserve any art at all.

I’m sure someone else has said this better but it is insane how close the experience of reporting on the Epstein files is to playing a database mystery Her Story or The Roottrees Are Dead

I do believe Tim Cook is gonna step down soon because no one does the absolute shit he’s been pumping out in the last year without planning to fuck off and leave the mess to someone else.

Good design is harder than it looks.

One of the monkey's-paw blessings of the Trump era is that the oligarchs no longer even try to make it look like something else

If the right can construct a conspiracy based on some pizza orders, surely they'll have a field day with this.

Ah yes time to listen to that new indie artist Justin Bieber

I've watched as the narrative has gone from "don't tax them, entrepreneurs create jobs!" to "don't tax them, billionaires create jobs!" and I can't wait to see the excuse for not taxing them once those entrepreneurs and billionaires get rid of all the human jobs in favour of AI and robots.

Logically somebody in a foreign country could say “the people in America voted for government services controlled by Donald Trump and deserve X” but blue staters wishing the worst on red staters always seem to feel that the election-based death should stop at the state level

Trump said Iran told him they were gonna strike US bases and he said that’s fine.

Stuff that was years of conspiracy theories in my twenties are now just off the cuff admissions that get nearly no coverage.

@bootstheory.bsky.social absolutely kills it on this episode. So good to hear someone lay out the issues with this story in such a clear, passionate manner.
