Real estate moguls & landlords have been slamming NYC lawmakers for requiring gas appliances be installed by master plumbers who actually know how to deal with that kind of dangerous equipment.

Literally days later, a gas explosion today just partially collapsed a massive NY apartment building.

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet.

ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Both my kids are at the house down the street. One of the other neighbor kids is playing in my backyard.

This is parenthood?

40 pounds in the gym: Lightweight. Am I going for reps today? There's no burn.

40 pounds of cat litter: Who needs this much cat litter? I'm gonna need a cart. Pets are stupid.

it's jolting how little AI skepticism has reached the general public. i've had many acquaintances ask whether i use AI for research and seem shocked when i tell them it's completely useless for that purpose. my wife recently told her colleagues about hallucinations and it was news to all of them.

I'm a LeBron truther. Ant is everything. I was hoping LA would win this game because this series is awesome.

More than anything, though, Rudy is a scumbag.

Newsletter: Microsoft pulled back on over a gigawatt of planned data center capacity, suggesting that they do not think there is a growth future in generative AI. Meanwhile, SoftBank, the only company that can afford to fund OpenAI, has to take out loans to do so.

Waiting in a long line at Disney behind four teenage guys. They played rock/paper/scissors, sticks, bubblegum, and then I'm pretty sure they jerked each other off. It's a weird generation.

Let's just be clear about this--Reagan was not in any way a good president. And without him, we wouldn't be in this whole mess right now. 🧵1/

Imagine if 40 years from now, Nico Harrison was still running the Dallas Mavericks. That's basically the Democratic party.
