It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

In hindsight, all the problems started when we moved away from hand-written library catalog cards.

Apple releasing a $1,000 phone in 2025 with USB 2.0 should be against the law. That’s the transfer speed of the FireWire 30-pin connector on the original iPod 24 years ago.

Groove Is in the Heart live on Arsenio… 35 years ago Lady Miss Kier, Q-Tip, et al. dropped one of most eclectic mainstream songs of all time, and I’d say the actual beginning of the 90s / a new era. And Q-Tip did for Deee-Lite was Fab Five Freddie did for Blonde. youtu.be/n5a21NGXVdw

This is my new favorite thing
Our #livestream runs 24/7. But when the microfiche scanning team takes a well-earned break, the feed keeps rolling, with #lofi music accompanying home movies, silent films & other gems from the Internet Archive.

Here's a sample.

Fully agree with Ernie. So many of the problems of the media business (a business I love) are the fault of those businesses themselves. That was true in the newspaper era and it’s true today in digital.
I forever disagree with the folks that Craigslist was to blame for the demise of newspapers.

He just came up with something useful and because it was a random guy and not, say, AOL that did it, it has made him the scapegoat for a generation of journalists.

Craig Newmark’s simple site was hailed as a disruptor and blamed for the collapse of classifieds. But journalism’s business failures ran deeper.

This whole "Let's use computers to do everything badly in the most expensive and unethical possible way" thing is really testing me.

Weird not watching #WWDC on Twitter with friends… weird not seeing a 5 min montage of developers working on stuff… weird seeing RATT. Very very strange vibes.

Craig’s speech feels like it was written by lawyers.

Instead of working on AI video generation, I hope Apple has been working on and is set to announce "legit video verification".
