I have to say that being at eye level about 2 feet away from a polar bear (on the other side of a sturdy glass window) while he happily lapped up his breakfast kibbles was an incredible experience. I knew it would be cool, but I didn't expect to be moved to […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I asked ChatGPT to summarize the 14 day weather forecast. It said “Can’t do it- that ^+# is all hallucinated” * note: Total joke, I never ask ChatGPT to do anything beyond fabricating made up stuff. Also I don’t use the “h-word” myself, ask @xolotl

Two roads for tech support. For a $ WordPress plugin I enter a form an issue identifying a feature gap addressable by an addiction of a shortcode option (which I know how to do). Entered in some Zendesk system, all I got is auto email saying it will be addressed soon. On the other hand, twice […]
