I saw someone say AI is useful because it generates ideas. My dude, I'm full of ideas. I have docs and docs marked under 'ideas.' I have outlines and fragments of stuff I might work on. Trunked stories galore. Even if I continue to write a novel a year for the next 40 years I won't run out of ideas.

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are one of the "big three" research animal models for studying embryonic development & regeneration. This is what the embryos look like under scanning electron microscopy. They look surprised 😮? What looks like 'eyes' here are actually nostrils.

It's easier to write than it is to let a Large Language Model barf something out and then spend the same amount of time editing as you would have simply writing it in the first place, and still have it be worse than what you would have done on your own

‘Today I used gen AI to motivate me to write and tried ChatGPT to edit but I promise I’m a writer’ is gonna get you immediately on my block list, idgaf. I cannot express how done I am with folks calling themselves ‘writers’ while using a thievery machine for lazy polluters.

I'm still going to write my artisanal human books with artisanal human-made cover art. If AI-generated covers are your thing, I'm not your guy. I will pick cover art drawn in crayon by a three-year-old over AI covers anytime.

The National Park Service is seeking applicants for a job that puts a new spin on “remote work.” The agency is looking for people or groups interested in managing the 10-room Kettle Falls Hotel, a historic hotel along a wild stretch of the Canadian border, accessible only by boat or float plane.

I would be hugely appreciative of reposts on this as well. I am currently unemployed due to major back issues, and every little $2 book sale helps give my wife and I room to breathe. <3

Wootz steel originates in India around 1st century BCE. Its manufacture sounds like a magic spell: "Take magnetite ore (iron with strong magnetic banding), mix with charcoal made from bamboo & matura tea trees, then heat in a sealed clay crucible in a forge that harnesses the monsoon winds."

Stop using AI. Yes, even just for fun. AI is built on STOLEN images and text. That’s right: by using it, you’re stealing from your friends. There is NOT ethical generative AI. Bonus bullshit: it is HORRENOUS for the environment. (Yes, even the cutesy profile photo cartoon things.)
