Finally a use for AI that I support. Put an AI vending machine is every work place now.
AI ran our office vending machine for several weeks. It lost hundreds of dollars, gave away a PlayStation, bought a live fish—and taught us a lot about AI agents, writes Joanna Stern.
We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.
An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

Love it when crock pot recipes are like

Add 1 cup of Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce

Add vinegar, brown sugar, and Worcestershire to make another cup of worse BBQ sauce.

They threw a Great Gatsby themed party at Mar-a-Lago during the shutdown and somehow you still managed to screw this up.

“We still had roads.” Yeah technically correct, but they were so badly built, that in 1919 it took a military convoy 56 days to drive from DC to San Francisco.

Person in this article “I thought my child was intentionally soiling themselves so I made them buy new underwear. Turns out it was a medical issue but I’m not going to reimburse them as punishment for trying to cover up an embarrassing medical issue. Anyway buy my parenting seminar.

Interesting, this is a headline I would expect to see if Meta was throwing a bunch of money at The Next Big Thing without any actual plan for how to eventually turn a profit. I’m sure the Metaverse guys know what they are doing though.

It’s really funny that The Art of War is treated as this like alpha male book when it’s clearly meant to be read by ancient Chinese failsons because it’s all “please don’t forget you have to feed your troops” and “if someone asks if you’re going to attack them consider lying about it”

Reasonable minds can disagree, but personally I would use the phrase “bucking tradition and legal precedent” for things like the president pardoning a pig instead of a turkey on Thanksgiving.
npr.org NPR @npr.org · Oct 7
President Trump is bucking tradition and legal precedent in pushing to deploy the National Guard to Democratic-led cities like Portland, Oregon, and Chicago due to what he says is rampant crime and to support his crackdown on illegal immigration.

One thing I love about share drives is files take forever to open and sometimes never open at all.

My 11yo daughter just walked in the room, looked at the tv, and said "is that a meme." I get she's new to internet culture but no. That is Harvey Keitel in Bad Lieutenant smoking crack. It would be a fire meme tho

thirty dollars a month for a monthly pass to play video games is insane. it costs $7 to buy slay the spire on PC, another $7 to buy it on your phone, and maybe another $7 for a hypothetical third device. that's your gaming budget set until slay the spire 2 comes out

If embassies had goons with diplomatic immunity the same way NHL teams had goons the world would be a very different place.
Mr Presidential Immunity is acting real brave for someone in a room filled to brim with diplomatic immunity.

“If it makes sense for adults, why wouldn’t it make sense for kids?”

With the carnivore diet rising in popularity among adults, babies and toddlers are getting in on it, too. Some pediatricians are very concerned. 🔗 on.wsj.com/3Un3BtN

Maybe this is hubris on my part, but I have the same reaction to these articles as I do to stories about cult members when they say “it could happen to anyone.”
Over 21 days of talking with ChatGPT, an otherwise perfectly sane man became convinced that he was a real-life superhero. He's one of a growing number of people who are having persuasive, delusional conversations with A.I. that have led to institutionalization, divorce and death.

Hang on everyone. The guy that renamed his company based on the Metaverse hype cycle has an opinion about the future of a hyped technology. We should take him seriously.

Old man rant of the day. There was no need to replace “cut” “copy” and “rename” with symbols in windows explorer. The text menus just worked just fine.

In a similar vein. People have been posting about how as an adult they realized in the song “I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus” that Mom wasn’t cheating on her husband with a mythical being but that she was only kissing her husband who was dressed up as Santa.
The rhyme is about cute little actions piggies take? One of the pigs isn’t killed for his meat. His going to the market is contrasted with, say, having a roast beef

My hot take is that we should let billionaires buy their way into more professional sports. If Mark Cuban thinks he can rush for five yards in a football game the NFL should let him try.
