Since Severance came out, my boss has stopped making us do team-building activities before our monthly meeting. Everyone say thank you, Severance.

I heard you like nostalgia? smbc-comics.com/comic/fads

I like to watch an episode of something marvel before severance, like eating a bag of Cheetos before going to a gourmet restaurant

I don't think any of us can judge the people who clap when the plane lands now.

People saying that they wouldn't go to the naked supermodel beach if it caused degradation of bone and muscle tissue, and possible longterm cognitive damage, have clearly never been 15.

Three months after adding a chatbot to my web site trained on my own publication history, CV, and blog, I decided to write an informal retrospective on the kinds of conversations I've seen people have with it: www.davidjoyner.net/on-three-mon...

Hot take: If you changed the name falafel to "Bean Ball Fry-Up" it could've easily been in every midwestern kitchen for decades.

I was going to create this image while waiting for ChatGPT to run, but /u/potatodemon beat me to it. Ironically, though, I accidentally closed ChatGPT while searching for this, so it had to start over anyway.

I don't know who else needs to know this but: scrolling through your ancient Amazon order history is a weirdly memories-like experience for things you never would have posted to social media otherwise. "Huh, I forgot my 2011 fitness kick!" "My wallet has lasted HOW long?!" "Ooh I remember VGA!"

As I have the past four years, I ended 2024 by listing out my ten favorite books that I read in the preceding calendar year! The list is at www.davidjoyner.net/on-my-top-bo... I miss being able to tag the actual authors in these posts. Quick, society, coalesce around a new standard social network.

Me encanta el espresso ristretto porque es más concentrado y ligeramente dulce. En la Edición Ristretto #1, sólo recomiendo un libro. Uno genial. Pasen y vean, y si les gusta, ¡suscríbanse y recomienden! Me ayudarían mucho. www.espressoyneon.com/p/edici-n-ri...

En la última edición de Espresso y Neón hablo sobre mis obsesiones favoritas. Como dirían en el bar de mi universidad, lleva "todo lo que es" paradojas y dilemas morales, más recomendaciones de lecturas y podcasts para que tus neuronas hagan pilates. www.espressoyneon.com/p/edicio-n-5...

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

Talking to 10-year-old Her: No DUH. Me: You could also say DUH. Her: What does DUH mean? Me: Same as no DUH Her: No, it doesn't... ***stares*** waiiiiit.

Again reminded I am incredibly lucky to get to write Rust for my actual work. After years of managing Java and Python APIs it feels like winning the software engineer lottery. Low overhead binaries go brrrrr. (don’t ask me about compile times)
