When I die, I want to be buried with the big box of random computer cables that I’ve been squirreling away for the last 3 decades cuz who knows maybe I’ll finally need them in the great beyond.

This is my favorite zen koan
How are you going to automate the job of someone who does nothing?

They did, sort of. Shortly after the Mueller report, Bob Garfield said sorry we got it all wrong, but it was Trump's fault for being so untrustworthy and chaotic.

They have never once apologized for the Russian collusion hoax, or censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story or covering for a mush brain President Bident. You are no better.

This should have been done with plastic straws. Tell people to fold them in half before throwing out to protect the turtles, make no other change. Also for some reason this reminds me of the "ich lüge bullets" scene from Heathers.

give people a "low water use" toggle and change absolutely nothing on the back end (all ordinary queries are already low water use - a couple mL)

Still thinking about this.

All you have to do is add a default prompt asking it to mimic some writer. I have mine speaking in Hubert Selby Jr. style.

This is the trend and I don't think it's reversible. I still limit agentic AI to a dedicated computer, but within that context I use it for basic OS things. Why dig through a maze of settings to find what I want when I can just ask Claude to change it? Or ask it to launch a website and log me in. Or do an every expanding set of OS things.
Lots of talk about an “AI OS” and trust me as someone who explored it for months: it is overkill. It would need to run as a virtual machine to be useful. But we will probably see AI fullscreen apps, almost like video games, that feel like their own OS.

Apparently I've reached the stage of live that involves doing a lot of smoke tests.
