Super cool that Grammarly has embraced AI and extended beyond just grammar and syntax, now offering factual "corrections" that are entirely wrong.

Online ads are so wild. On a YouTube video, I just got an ad for Honda followed by one that was exactly five seconds long and just said, "You deserve healthy feet. You deserve lotion." No other information.

As @ajdellinger.com wrote this week in @gizmodo.com, Bitcoin mining is more expensive than ever.
Yet, that doesn't mean some of the biggest mining operators can't still get rich -- thanks, in part, to deals some struck to do nothing more than sell the energy they buy back to the grid at a mark-up.

I didn’t have to share in this story that I think stock chart patterns are MBA astrology but I just wanted to say it for those who agree but don’t have the freedom to say it out loud

Can't believe Bluesky partnered with Iran to launch a cyberattack against X while Elon Musk was in a k-hole. Masterful gambit.

Of course this doesn't make rational sense and is just ideologically driven, but isn't this an example of a thing they claim to *want*? Instead of the government building its own tool, they just pay for a private sector solution. That's like their whole argument for how to save money!

Vivek's Urkel take gave me an excuse to talk interpretations of Whiplash and taxonomical theories of fascism in the same article, so thanks for that, I guess.

imo it's not inexplicable UHC killer IDs as "anti-capitalist" and is a Tucker Carlson/Musk/Thiel follower. They all position themselves as anti-establishment. Of course they don't want to tear down systems of oppression; they want to control them. But plenty of followers don't catch that part.

Google's spam filter in Gmail used to be pretty good at deciphering the difference between real emails and trash.
Now it puts Google Calendar invites sent from *THE COMPANY'S OWN PLATFORM* in my spam folder.

Just saw a Zillow ad encouraging millennial friend groups to buy a home together so they can actually afford one. So seems like everything is going well in the housing market.

There are plenty of scammers who face minimal social repercussions for fucking people over, but kinda wild how many big influencers ran crypto scams that targeted and hurt their own audiences and didn't lose an ounce of popularity. All you have to do is stop watching the guy who took your money!

First tweet I saw today was a person threatening to boycott Lululemon because small sizes cost as much as large sizes and they don't want to "subsidize clothes for fats."
Not only is that not for me, but I can't even imagine who that is for.
