Just now when I tried to think of an example and realized I’ve been having these kinds of thoughts for 30 years. I remember in the 90s when I realized it was as long ago that Grease came out as it was from then to when it took place.

Already answered but I have a new one today: 😢

Tumbled out of bed and stumbled to the kitchen, Poured myself a cup of ambition.

Fair enough and I’m sorry if I sounded judgy. I I know it doesn’t apply to everyone, but I think a major reason for Amazon’s success is that they’ve made acquiring things too convenient. A lot of people (I know I did) fall into the trap of over-consumption. I’ve come to conclude that spending my money ought to come with a little friction.

I do this thing where if I need something, I go to a store and buy it. It has resulted in a lot less buying of useless stuff that I didn’t really need and ends up just taking up space. YMMV

That’s so weird. I haven’t gotten any of these vague confirmation emails. Oh, that’s right. I remember why. Because I don’t buy a thing from that fucking oligarch’s website.

Me either. Feels weird to be complaining about it on the internet though. It’s almost like the solution is self-evident. Oh, well. It’ll come to me.

If it’ll mow down bollards, it’ll mow down toddlers. It can’t distinguish between the two.

If AI is so wonderful they could afford to put up solar panels to power the data centers.

I’ve literally seen my own shadow from the starlight (new moon, clear sky, remote Utah desert), and I agree with that guy. I don’t see how they get all those shapes.

We must obey our robot overlords. I don’t make the rules.

I been wondering how long it was going to take for someone official to realize that “prediction market” just means “gambling.”

Whatever the most marketable one was about ten years ago.

Another reason to give up facebook. I’ve been off it for a decade.

I’d shoot my shot. If I’m working towards a PhD I am too smart to waste my life working a boring job for a comfortable but not great salary.

Ha ha, yeah, I have a knack for hiking to places that are supposed to have amazing views on days like that. Hurricane Ridge:
