I ordered a pain au chocolat with almonds at a Paul Le Cafe and for some reason they quartered it. #breakfastchat
We should know from Jeremy Allen White that a white t-shirt is not just a white t-shirt. The chances of a stylist or a tailor being involved are non-zero. And between her Chanel watch and his Loro Piano sneakers there's at $10,000 worth of clothes and accessories in frame.
My take that this is a specific stylistic reference to her back catalog that will pay for itself in streaming revenue, a highly constructed image (how often do you see red eye anymore? or solo cups that large?) and that this is quiet luxury
famously tin, but I bet it's not anymore
The convenience store near me I walk to for a cheap cappuccino and pastry combo rolled out these maple pecan danishes recently that are pretty good

I'm a data scientist @ourworldindata.org and I need help from a botanist or someone local to Kyoto, Japan! 🌸
We present one of the world’s longest climate records: 1,200 years of peak cherry blossom dates in Kyoto.
The researcher who maintained it, Prof. Yasuyuki Aono, sadly passed away last year.
a non-thinking man's game?
I feel like that's a pattern established by the wire services, which is now being repurposed to imply market moving, breaking news without the attribution that could undercut it.
Is that how the vacuums work?
I personally use "dumb question" as an ice breaker for questions of any level, but I have seen what happens when there's an insecure leader or a power dynamic.
I think you have to look at it through the lens of organizational and societal trust. Is there safety to reveal your vulnerability? Who gets to do that?
Everything we've learned about Taco Bell AI suggests AI causes that.

More missiles that don't explode, please.
I looked at some data, and it confused me, so I looked at more data and got more confused.
We've reached the inflection point where people complaining about April Fools' Day pranks outnumber the number of April Fools' Day pranks. April Fools' Day cranks.

Physical interventions are cast as the abuse in that sentence.
It's not just about commercialization.
So it's harder to pull off the earlier success of developing a coalition around personal democratization and decentralization that sidesteps the fears around commercialization, because of who the first coalition included and because they couldn't omit LLMs from AI the same way they omitted DeFi.
The thing is, it's hard to build on this technology without making a series of ethical compromises, each required to get things done. Text generation has inherent political and social dimensions. And agentic systems supplant human agency to some degree.
You can also see the self-empowerment argument for vibe coding in the choice to mass personalize feeds, which was always part of the promise of the app, but which in practice I bet few have done.
That's why one of the ATProto creators says he's "radicalized" about building with AI to not to lose a "fight" for "personal computing and... agency" and "lose another decade to closed clouds."

The Web 3.0 ethos was pretty radical about using technology to redistribute power, but the whole thing got sucked into DeFi.
