It's hilarious that you don't realize how shitty this makes you look.

Hey @opg.bsky.social I regret to inform you that on Edmund Fitzgerald day I have decided that AI is good actually, because it answered this question (and I don't really care if it's wrong).

This is a "WAT" level javascript moment for me.

("Technically" a 2-tuple is foldable, only over its second component, although it's not clear to me why you''d want this to even type check.)

I need to write a talk solely for the purpose of presenting this slide and then never being invited to an FP conference again.

When you have literally no idea whatsoever what the word "organizing" means, BUT you also have a deep-seated psychological need to gatekeep people out of movements and keep posting through it.

Like or hate Will Stancil, his ability to lure people into hurling themselves into saying the stupidest possible things in public is undeniable.

I'm just saying our passports are MUCH less cool than they could be.

It's worth mentioning that in the SECOND issue of Superman (1939), Superman intervenes in a war in Boravia, so Gunn is actually making a callback to the original stories (which he does a LOT in his movie). In that story, Boravia was involved in a civil war, not a border conflict.

Ah yes my favorite argument, "Well, the fact that I could believe it tells you something about the current state of affairs"

Bluesky don't fabricate quotes challenge level: impossible.

I'm old fashioned about quoting people, even people I think are terrible.

You right now TBH

Like this seems undeniably like a toxic hellstew!

It's actually OK and good to accuse people posting "Kill yourself hurr hurr hurrrrrr" of bad faith.

[CW: self-harm]

If this poor kid had asked ChatGPT to generate an image of Moana from the Disney movie, he couldn't have bypassed ChatGPT's safety protocols in a billion years. The lack of care around their suicide detection systems is horrific. Negligence at a minimum, maybe worse.

Made this in-joke meme for a friend and now I can't stop laughing to myself about it.

Never fails.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your dignity.
