if they think that by privatizing everything public i love and use they'll get me to spend money with those private companies instead then they don't know me at all. i once drove to another state to buy public cheese. all they'll do is make me more annoying

so the utah hockey club can’t be yeti and their back up plan is the mammoth? terrible. if you’re gonna go lumbering, oafish, minor-league-ass mascot, at least go with “the squatch” for the mouthfeel of “utah squatch.” it’s a shame coyotes is off the table because utah yotes woulda been perf.

Anthropic, a company that is helping companies replace workers with AI, asks prospective workers to not use AI in their job applications because they want to know if they know how to do anything without AI: www.404media.co/anthropic-cl...

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

every angry take I’ve seen about using technology to offload the work of being a human is correct, and I’ll just add: you learn things from art you don’t like and/or finish! you learn things, about yourself and about the world, even from experiences you don’t enjoy! friction is necessary for growth!

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's adolescent energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

The Tiktok ban is so transparently cynical that it's impossible to take anyone involved seriously ever again. Obviously both parties in congress saw an opportunity to gore a foreign ox and maybe pull off a nice little shakedown in order to pretend to be taking Americans' privacy concerns seriously

band practice is a regular highlight of my week. i get to see my bros and make stuff with them. music is about communication, it is inherently prosocial. all the good things about music and making music aren’t monetizable which is why these assholes have these dry joyless opinions

When the bubble pops, and it will, you’re not just looking at a few Johnny-come-lately companies shuttering. This is a load-bearing delusion. The entire tech industry is fucked because they all bought in, every VC firm bought in, investors have everything in it. They need to make you like it.

a must listen on how big tech alters (and in this case degrades) art. a great interview from @parismarx.com with @tavlin.bsky.social on how Netflix’s “data-driven” business decisions have erased the visibility and seeming worth of creative labor and debased an artform in the process.

Just saw a no-longer relevant evacuation notice on instagram from five hours ago and remembered — that’s right, due to hyper-monetization every major social network no longer shows you life-saving breaking news as it happens. They turned it over to an algorithm that finally noticed “he likes fire.”

so far the top skill i’ve mastered as a new dad is silently celebrating detroit sports. when Seider drew that PP in OT i preemptively stood up with a newborn snoozing on my chest knowing what was coming. kid slept through the whole thing. #lgrw

the lions hard count on that 4th down and minnesota bites. that’s the long-play payoff for being so aggressive on 4th down all year long. it’s datsyuk doing a change-up version of his signature shootout movie on niemi. it’s sports artistry. #onepride
