Remember, glorifying violence on here is not okay! Except when you murder a whole crew on a boat. Thanks @safety.bsky.app!

So if you are wondering how things go on Sora, OpenAI's slop TikTok, let's just say it took less than a dozens scrolls for me to have Adolf Hitler giving a TED talk how he has good intentions and wanted to fix a broken system. Or driving around while ranting about "the juice"...

To be honest hearing "Political violence is always wrong!" so many times in the last few days, makes me feel a bit weird.

So I really was interested in the strudel recipe mentioned in this viral tweet, but after researching a bit must concluded it's probably fabulated. Still a good metaphor tho. Shame about the strudel recipe.
My grandfather used to say "and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel" and I never knew what it meant until after he died my grandmother explained some magazine did a fluff interview with Magda Goebbels a few years before WW2 that included her strudel recipe and my grandfather, who hated the Nazis with the passion of 10,000 suns, thought it was an example of the media sanitizing evil people and he would use the phrase when someone asked him to overlook a bad person doing bad things and focus on the good.

Whoever thought the YouTube app should show "community posts" without a way to disable them needs a stern talking to.

Are these people for real? This is the Robinhood CEO about how a "post-AI" economy works.
Vlad Tenev: So I think it's going to become more important to invest, because if you can't rely on labor to generate money to make a living, capital becomes more important. And so we're going to have to make it easier for people to learn about investing. Invest from an early age, get their kids investing. And I think it's going to be private industry like Robinhood, and also the government that's gonna have to step in. And I think you're seeing the beginnings of this shift with the Invest America Act.

Recently wrote a prototype for a manga reader for Japanese language learners. Wanted to only use Apple's Live Text for the OCR which proved to be the hardest part. (Segmenting the text by area isn't something that API exposes)
