Friends. Bots. Today is a bittersweet day. My coffee maker that I bought in 2004 just died. Moment of silence, please.
But don’t fret.
I bought a brand new one off of eBay years ago in preparation for this event. Here’s to another 22 years.

This is solid advice from a cool guy across the pond. I usually do interact with them once prior to the mute letting them know I’m going to mute them instead of blocking so they can still enjoy me. Cheers!
Good morning you beautiful people. Today I thought I’d start with Alastair’s top tips for dealing with lefties on here: when they reply to your post with their aggression and moronic drivel, do not reply. Do not think you can educate them. You can’t, they’re lefties. Click on their profile, go to the three dots at the top right and select mute. They will continue being leftie morons (I realise I didn’t need to use the word moron after saying leftie) and they’ll continue hurling abuse but you won’t see it. They’ll be shouting into the wind. I’ve muted hundreds of them and I love that they think it affects me or that I see it. I mute them and then get on with my day of having fun as you’ll see from this photo of me on a scary ride in Blackpool some time ago. Have a lovely, leftie free day. Cheers 🍻

My town has a 30’x60’ flag in our park by the water. It is simply glorious on days like today.
That thing is huge and majestic.

You guys. Someone in west Michigan is selling this chicken coop. I am once again dead. I wish I had chickens.

Oh this hurts because it's true. That's also why it's funny. Me last night with leftover rice krispie treats at 1am actually. True story.

Read that apology, and then understand that it's no apology at all. They donated to a cause that Charlie opposed vehemently. That's not an apology; it's doubling down. Demonic.
It is difficult to imagine people being as ugly on the inside as they are on the outside. Their "apology" is a mere recognition that there are pecuniary consequences to being astounding demonic assholes. I pity the people in their respective families.

I had forgotten that Charlie stood up for Dave. That's really sad if Chappelle's comment is real and in context.

This stuff fascinates me. I believe humans will always have meaningful work that will pay. Every technological innovation brought with it the fear of replacement, and the fear was partially deserved. But that innovation brought forth new opportunities to create value.
We’ll be ok.
This is f*cking insane. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei was asked what a kid graduating high school should do now. His answer:
"It will also eliminate jobs, and probably a large number of them"
In 35 seconds, he names who gets hit first: entry-level law, entry-level finance, entry-level consulting
His own prediction: 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs disrupted in 1 to 5 years
Every past disruption gave people time to adapt. He says this one is deeper and coming faster
Prompts → Agents → Harness → Loops → The One Running the AI
His advice: learn to use AI. Using it won't be enough. You need a harness that runs it for you

AI won't replace you. Someone with a harness will
95% will keep applying for jobs AI already does, the 5% who build a harness will be the ones running it
Bookmark it and send it to someone just starting their career
Then use the guide below to build your harness before everyone else does ↓

This was the last time I ever watched a TV series (besides South Park lol). It had me absolutely, positively captivated from episode one. I continued on with every season until Kiefer left. I even have President Heller's trench coat. Bought it off Ebay lol. Pic in comments.
“24,” a new political thriller television show starring Kiefer Sutherland as an anti-terrorism cop, premieres.

Good job you guys. Does it bother you that one of the most evil men on the planet is excited about the way you voted?
Maybe it was the timing in my life. Maybe it was Goldeneye on the Nintendo 64 I spent HOURS/DAYS playing with my college/work friends (paintball mode - IYKYK). But this is my absolute favorite Bond movie and there's no close second.
Famke Janssen fractured a rib during the steam room fight in GoldenEye.
She told Brosnan to slam her into the wall as hard as possible; he did, something cracked, and she powered through.
She didn’t learn it was fractured until 6 months later.
She always did enjoy a good squeeze.
