Thinking about how folks are already pulling out pitchforks against AI. Will future ads and creative works be stamped as 100% human created similar to the Organic produce we see in grocery stores.
Organic Free Range Content
How does generative AI change public perception. Will future ads and creative works be stamped as 100% human created similar to the Organic produce we see in grocery stores.

As a Canadian travelling in the US. You guys need to figure out payments. The whole multiple receipts, take the card, sign the thing, math the tip with a pen. Insane.

I love my fiance and can't wait to marry her , but she insists that setting the clock on the car 10 minutes fast is the greatest 'life hack' of all time and I hate it.

Who would've thought the Jack White & Eminem collab would slap so hard.

I thought I bricked my laptop after a coffee incident last night. Popped open the back today and disconnected the internal battery.

Cycled the power for 60 seconds & waited.

Plugged everything back in and we're booting like nothing ever happened.

I love ThinkPads.

A fun exploration of all the decisions that can be made architect-ing modern software.

Protip! When committing changes from your Aspire project make sure you're in the solution directory.

I mindlessly added and committed my changes without realizing I was just in the AppHost project.

Didn't realize what happened until after some reckless reset --hards 😕

I jumped on the Omarchy bandwagon and threw it on my old Thinkpad. Super fun to learn all the keyboard navigation.

Got a .NET Aspire app running with the roslyn LSP (github.com/seblyng/rosl...)

The free functionality you get with Gemini CLI is so fun. 1000 requests/day with Gemini 2.5 Pro is 🤯

Trying to get back/start to post here on Bluesky.

My thought today is that playing fantasy football after 30 is painful.

My algorithm is filled back up with player rankings and the sentiment is that anyone over 30 is a decrepit pile of garbage ... 😅

A few years ago I bought a cheap ThinkPad online and installed Linux. I've learned so much and gained such an appreciation for computers and software because of that decision.
