Unfortunately now we get Reverend Richard Wayne Gary Wayne. Not clear this will be an improvement.
Having slept on this, I sadly think this is a PR stunt to get us talking about the new “product” and he’s intentionally hamming it up as hating the food.
If I had realized “Bugonia” was a remake of a Korean black comedy, I surely would have watched it sooner. Definitely one of the more unusual films I’ve seen recently, with unbelievable performances all around. (No spoilers.)
(Slightly surprised this meme template did not already exist)
Bar coaster in the former British consulate in Chiang Mai…
Seriously - when I click a ServiceNow link on our new and improved internal service portal it take 15 SECONDS for the page to load. I don’t know how you make something so bad.
Oh, also Workday is garbage too. Although it’s better than the old Oracle platform. Business software is all awful.
When I was a development methodology wonk, there was a rule that 95% of software written is strictly internal use. We make good stuff, but at work we also have ServiceNow and Salesforce deployments which are the most godawful garbage I’ve used. I 100% don’t think coding tools can make it worse.
Will they be Hugo Boss? 🤔
One of the shellfish courses at Noma’s seafood dinner includes a card with a link to a picture and bio of the fisherman! (Seems like it was a sustainable supplier thing, but it/he was cute.)
Oh god yes, Microsoft continvoucly
morged my diagram there for sure 😬
Y’know, for cutting wood to prop up the failing pole. But, yeah, if we don’t enforce snow clearing fines against them why would we enforce hazard poles?
Do chainsaws?
There’s supposedly a law. Hmm.
The genAI industry has directly fed this divisive behavior, and I’m not sure how it benefits anyone. (See also the almost unanimously negative responses to adafruit’s use of genAI tool assistants: fosstodon.org/@adafruit/11...)
I had to check that this was a real screenshot (it is, from 13 hours ago). Have we hit peak Dr. Strangelove yet?
I has a first date watching “Seven”; where does that rank?
Still waiting to find if I was in the treatment or placebo arm. They were supposed to tell us end of year, hm.
One of the worst offenders is Bonterra/NGP VAN. They don't publish it, but I wrote them and they sent a link for a global opt-out, which I share with you here: secure.everyaction.com/Bby5Gh663k-Y...
Note that the final page says "you've been subscribed" but it is actually a global opt-out. 3/3
Phony match requests, manufactured urgency, millionaires begging for more dollars despite not taking action, etc. It's a garbage ecosystem.
[1] Exception is hyper-local politics, which doesn't get the money. I'll still give there, but never to a federal campaign. 2/
Are you alread getting political spam? Several years ago I stopped giving donations to politicians[1] because they share contacts with ActBlue and NGPVAN and other fundraising networks, so if you give to one you get 100s of other spam messages about the urgency of just one more dollar bro. 1/
As I’ve noted before, LLMs are to AGI as Broca’s Area is to the human brain.
Developers be like:
graph of serious & fatal crashes in Somerville
pedestrian crashes
🚘 Somerville's Traffic Calming is working:
"For the third year in a row, no fatal crashes were recorded in Somerville. Serious injury crashes decreased by roughly 50% compared with 2024...We also saw a significant decrease in all reported crashes, from 618 crashes in 2024 to 516 crashes in 2025."
These memes are always fun: name your favorite film that’s around three hours long (172 minutes)
I keep thinking “my god the people they’ve killed seem like exceptionally good folks” and I think the lesson there is that they’re not exceptional, but that wonderful people abound and that a baseline distrust in humanity is a shitty conservative trope that privileges power over collective strength
It’s cold out there, Somerville! Keep warm.
You could spoil it with the Wikipedia article, but it looks like the game has been re-released for modern platforms: store.steampowered.com/app/245390/I...
I fall for this every single time: ask an image generator for something on a transparent background, paste it somewhere, and find that… it’s generated an image on a grey checkerboard background.
Remember the video game adaptation?
