I don't xeet or tweet here anymore for obvious reasons. Find me at: mas.to/@robotpony bsky.app/profile/robotpony.b…

I wonder how long it will be until there is a career path in AI psychology?

This is, like, the final Final Countdown: youtube.com/watch?v=e-WakfBN… This is the coolest nerdiest maker thing imaginable.

I love wedge salads as it is a restaurant's way of dropping the pretence of actually making a salad with bite-sized greens.

I'm not sure if y'all realize, but SEO has been pushing humans to create AI-level content for years. For example, popular recipe sites wrap simple lists of ingredients and steps in a bunch of nonsense text for internet points. Monetization is a much scarier trend IMO.

With my wife, son, and daughter in 3 different time zones, and me changing time zones a bunch of times in the last few weeks I have no idea what time it is anywhere. I’m pretty sure, though, that I shouldn’t slack my EST team right now 😝

I will always forget what something is in the freezer if I don't label it.

The whole idea of machines hallucinating reality feels oddly familiar.

I’ve always wondered how much travel is too much. So far I haven’t figured it out.

I still think of software design as a a harmony of what it needs to be (product), how you experience it (experience design), and how it all falls together (software design). For side projects I love to weave my way between all three, eventually landing on something interesting.

Colorado FTW 💛

Some days I think that most humans are AI, and not very good AI at that.

I can't bring myself to install browser extensions when they have such open access to stuff. The best I can do is keep an extension profile that I don't use for anything personal.

When I get frustrated with ads on the web I remember back to the 80s when we had magazines. They were also mostly ads, even pop-out ads that fell on the floor and floated under your furniture. We either pay for our content by renting out our eyeballs and time, or with actual $$.

Word of the day: subarashii.

One of the joys of life is found in conversation with your adult children. We spent the afternoon talking with our youngest about how to build a basic, trainable neural net, and he schooled me on the maths. I can imagine no better world than one where your kids outsmart you.

What do you make when life gives you a few kilograms of baby bell peppers? Soup of course!

I feel like Yoda and Darth Vader would have run a pretty successful management course.

There are some days where I think to myself, "Self, I miss Tumblr," and then someone sends me this: rotatingsandwiches.com It's a true gift from the gods.
