Claude is the new ResEdit. Being able to crack open the software and devices I already own feels empowering.

Why is the kid on the right writing code?

On A Bed of Autumn. Chicago on Wednesday.

"Many [estranged parents] truly can’t remember what their children said. Anything tinged with negative emotion, anything that makes them feel bad about themselves, shocks them so deeply that they block it out . . . This emotional amnesia shapes their entire lives"

I've posted some of these before, but it's wild to see the Palace of Fine Arts in ruins during the years between the end of the 1893 Worlds Fair and the 1933 opening of the MSI? I first saw a few of these images in an elementary school library book when I was a kid. I was astonished.

"Trump-Epstein Bookmobile" is coming to Andersonville Wednesday with the president set to visit the area. buff.ly/TyTVioj

one big problem with the LLM hacks and cybersecurity is that there are a lot of soft targets out there certainly they’re going to find new 0days but a lot of systems run on outdated shit and have gotten away with it because nobody bothered to poke at them poking at them will get a lot easier soon

True story.

6-12 months before a persistent collective LLM driven technical pandemic or “techdemic”, how are y’all going to spend it? darioamodei.com/post/we-must...

a very merry Mox Gets to See @melt-banana.bsky.social Day to all who observe!!!!

Doing some comps for work: I signed up for Fb, X, and TikTok— all clean accounts. First you’re suffocated by slop. Then it’s a masterclass in permission over reach and engagement dark patterns. X gates your feed with a notification permission request— with a countdown to skip.

Sorry to be a hater but the fact you need to wake up super early on a Sunday (and pay a fee) to enjoy a car-free DLSD is a sick joke. If you get there at 9, you have 90 minutes before rolling closures begin. G-d forbid drivers are inconvenienced. ATA has been content with scraps for 25 years.

i saw two guys get in a fistfight as third eye blind played “jumper”

I read today in an article in The Daily Beast that some military leaders have privately begun referring to Pete Hegseth with the nickname "No Tab Pete" and I nearly spit my drink out. I then realized that everyone should have the knowledge to appreciate this ruthless nickname. (thread)

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection

i think that because i am in my 40s i should get a pass on discord where i can open it without getting screamed at about orbs and whatever a mini vegeta bundle is

Btw the Redis story repeats itself: I'm working at DwarfStar for free for the community and because I enjoy it. But I'm receiving criticisms, since people are worried that this will break their AI-richness plans.

Bluesky should go back to invites, continue aggressive bot bans, create a Craigslist-style marketplace (since you’re more likely to buy/get services from a educated or good person on here than any other social network), and market this place like a walled garden protected from enshittification.

New study shows gun violence increased near schools that were closed in the 2013 school closures in Chicago, seemingly specifically associated with building vacancy www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

En Opinión: “Cuando el gobierno mata a un ciudadano desarmado y luego se niega a dar cuenta pública y cabal de lo ocurrido, el asunto no queda en el pasado”, escribe Rachel Reyes, madre de Ruben Ray Martinez, quien murió a manos de un agente del ICE en 2025. “Sigue sin resolverse para mi familia”.

You would make software engineers across the globe swoon. We already live in UTC— the world just needs to catch up.

USB4AMI public sales open up at 10am (eastern time) this morning - little over 1 hour from now. And it's not a preorder - I have a reasonable supply of them on hand and they will ship in the next couple days. retrofrog.net/products/usb...

the final reckoning between AI hype and reality is upon us. buckle up.

When someone mentions "GLP-1" I always think they're talking about a model first before I figure out otherwise from the context…

This is hard to put down. All “smart”watches should work this way.

🚨 , brace for flooding! Excessive rainfall expected across Cook & Will counties. Stay clear of creeks, streams, and poor drainage areas. Stay safe, folks! 🌧️💦

The thing about Mt Rushmore is that it's so much smaller than it looks in photos and the guy that carved it was in the Klan.

The weather is really helping wash out those stupid fckin fireworks.
