I’m going to NY next week and really appreciate the reminder to go eat at Katz again. 🤤

And its hella fun…

Just as long as they also cap property tax and insurance increases at 3%, I’d be fine with that. I had both more than double in price in 3 years.

Personally I think the mistake was letting mice run around the front of the house during my last visit. We pointed it out to the staff who gave us the most fake surprised look I’ve ever seen.

It’s too bad, their Cajun Chicken pasta is FIRE.

You’re doing it wrong IMO. ChatGPT 4.0 is freakin’ amazing at helping on coding task, you just need to learn what to ignore and how to adjust the prompt when you’re not getting the results you want. Akin to the skillet of googling for programming solutions (or any solution), it gets easier with practice.

What I find most comical about this situation is just how little Trump actually cares about Christianity, yet his base completely ignores his track record. He’ll sell Bibles because it makes him money. He’ll do the Christian dance just as much as what is needed to fool his base into thinking that’s a part of his moral compass.

Power and money is what drives that man, and everything else is an illusion to gain the first two.

I want to experience that. Jamaica was beautiful for the 6-7 hours I was there on my honeymoon. I can imagine how beautiful it would be to walk on those beaches at night with the galaxy hanging above. Man … you had a lucky childhood my dude.

I went to Google IO the year they announced Google Music (2013?) and they offered a special discount for those in attendance. I gotta hand it to them, even through all those transitions (Red, YouTube Premium) they have grandfathered me into the new services with the similar discounted price. If they ever took the discount away, I still kinda feel like the family plan is a bit justified given how much my wife and I consume YouTube content.

Bravo. I need to watch this show again…

Looks like https://youtu.be/9TjUWnAK0cg?si=A3_SR6Ih7JfB4yM- and I’m all about it.

This warms my heart. What a great man

Does Escape from Tarkov make the list?

No doubt he’s a egotistical dick, but to say the world would be a better place without him is categorically false on many grounds.

• The man popularized electric vehicles like no car manufacturers have ever been able to do.
• SpaceX’s achievement in reducing the cost per pound and reusable rocket tech will have profound implications on our species survival over the long run.
• Starlink coverage now provides relatively affordable internet to far more remote areas of the world.

So while I think recent years of criticism is fair based on his behavior (why the hell is he wasting precious time on Twitter again?) to say the world would be better off without him is to overlook the substantial contributions he has made towards technological advancement and global connectivity. It’s important to separate the individual’s personal flaws from the broader value of their work. Just my 2 cents.

Uh oh!! Somebody else is about to get wacked!

You can tell I’m more of a front-end guy 😄

A huge yet underappreciated impact on the modern world. People don’t realize how much work goes on behind the scenes to bring those apps/websites to life.

Thank you for all your contributions Simon. Rest in peace sir.

I honestly thought the joke was them filling the page with ads, like that’s what we can expect from reddit now. Turns out the Onion just has a shit ton of ads. 😞

Yeah for real. Putin may be a dick, but unlike Trump he is way ahead in the dictator plays and is estimated to be sitting at well over 100 billion USD. 500 million to bail out the US president who would gladly take the U.S. out of NATO for him seems absolutely reasonable.

You plant shit seeds, you get shit weeds.

If it’s one thing I learned from the last BS they pulled during the protests last year, it’s that their actions will have little impact on reddit user behavior. People will complain and express outrage, but the vast majority of users will just sit back and take it like good little AI trainers.

I for one will not be one of them. When they removed mods from communities that were in protest, that’s enough for me to stay clear going forward. As much as I miss the content, it warms my soul every time I think about the ad revenue they’re missing out on by my own personal decisions to not consume it.
