I wouldn't wish trying to get multi-national company A to get multi-national company B to update their health care records about you when company A made a mistake on my worst enemy.

cuomo announced he's running third-party and mamdani responded by dropping a link to his own fundraising site in the replies lol

To everyone at RailsConf (#railsconf):

It’s been a privilege to work, learn, and laugh with you over the past two decades.

It’s been so touching to hear your stories over this last week and it’s a point of pride that I can call you all friends.

See you all on the flipside.

🥳🥰

Currently 42 mins into a “take the train to LAX” experiment!

So far, quiet, easy, uneventful!

There is a bus at the end of this because the LAX People Mover is open yet.

Oh, and the cost: $1.75

Butthole Surfers had it right:

Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies

A great example of AI not seeing the forest for the trees:

I'm writing an AsciiDoc parser and a Claude generated test for inline styles was: "*bold*, _italics_, `monospace`".

So what did Claude generate to parse that? Code that parses a string with styles in that exact order.

In week 5 of a large scale experiment with letting generative AI code, where I try to take my hands off the wheel as often as possible.

One insight the last week is that AI can't usually see the forest for the trees, instead it just sees an infinite sequence of similar trees.

My god. 6 MILLION acres of public lands in Oregon, including the vast majority of our national forests, will be sold in a fire sale if the MAGA budget passes.

I'm sitting in a (quite nice) airport foot court and was just thinking about how we all know that smart phones changed how people spend their downtime (glancing about that's true) and if AI/voice is next platform, what will this food court look like? 75% of the people talking to the air?
