This is old news about convenience store egg technology, but it was the most interesting thing I learned today (this says something about me), and I'm sharing in an attempt to remember the word "kimipuchi" in future.

do you think it's better to watch harrowing movies when you are already feeling bad?

e.g. 'Come and See'

Landlords are the most crybaby (and baby-like) class of investor.

"Can you explain what you mean by that?"

No.

There's a phenomena with generated content (text, audio, video) where I think the relief/euphoria some people feel once it produces something that looks right ("now I don't have to do this anymore!") clouds their assessment.

"Is this good enough?" may be safer in the hands of someone uninvolved.

Got bored and built a background removal tool that after removal adds a checkerboard background and saves it without transparency.

the youtube vs yt-dlp arms race is hilarious, because of how lopsided it is.

on the one hand, you've got a company with the GDP of Denmark who has about a manhattan-project's worth of developers they can assign to this.

but on the other end, you've got every bored or annoyed javascript hacker.

I am editing a blog post and it just seems to be a list of gripes, apologies in advance (I am getting older, this is to be expected).

The problem with describing classic works of philosophy as "challenging" is it doesn't capture the distinction between those that are legitimately arcane, and those that are talking about something a middle schooler could grasp but keep circling the point like the author's getting paid by the word.

whenever I mention Google's 'twiddlers' I start doubting myself and think it might be 'fiddlers' and eventually talk myself back out of it because that would sound much worse.

In 2022 my blog had a noindex page which linked to a URL containing today's date in a ?

These destinations were getting requested and indexed > 6 months later.

Used for PageRank: idk, I'm not a wizard.

Didn't publish because I migrated my blog forgetting any running tests 😢

For some reason when people say 'potential audience' or 'ideal customer' I'm fine, but as soon as they say 'persona' I think they are being too cowardly to admit they enjoy astrology.

1. I am being unfair.
but also
2. I have never seen personas applied in a way that didn't leave me more confused.

Some Kind Of Monster is one of my favourite documentaries

I enjoyed the book about the making of as well - iirc they were originally making a short promotional fluff piece but things kept getting worse.
