How I remember Markdown link syntax i.e. ()[] or []():

Whatever I think it is, with whatever mnemonic I use to remember, is the wrong option.

This is actually super interesting.
This study show that using poems to jailbreak LLMs is... super effective? What the heck.

Is the cache invalidation and naming things adage a joke or real? Or deliberately ambiguous?

I have no idea but naming things is really nowhere near cache invalidation in terms of difficulty.

Just learned that Spotify has implemented short form song snippets that you can infinitely scroll through. What is wrong with this world???

I need a website that tracks every time something extraordinary happens and it becomes the new normal so that I can go back and remember what ten years ago was actually like.

(Remembering Signalgate from last spring, "biggest inauguration ever," etc.)

What do you call it when someone goes to a WeWork in Moscow just for schmoozing?

It would really be nice if git history could have some sort of provenance attribute that tells you (line by line) if the code was generated by AI or has been touched/written/modified by a human.

Apologizing in advance (um, and in retrospect) for my enthusiasm about the following:

- Sentimental Value (new Joachim Trier movie, saw it early)
- Articles of Interest, Gear and Ivy seasons
- Doppelganger by Naomi Wolff I mean Naomi Klein ;)

God I'm so nostalgic for the old internet. Do you remember -- recommending people to follow because they were so interesting? Posting things you read because, they were (also) interesting? Asking legit questions because you wanted to learn from real humans who knew things about the subject? 😭

Guys what am I going to watch to feel good when Zohran doesn't have to make campaign videos anymore?

The Baileys: Well, we don't technically live in the city, but we're actually really impressed by Zohran -- we love how he connects with everyday people and has new ideas and new energy for improving things, and would have voted for him if we could have!
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?

Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

Man it's been way too long since I've scrolled down and just liked 30 posts in a row.

Congrats to the best city in the country and to America too frankly.

Real q: are there still scenes in the world where everyone and their mother (in a certain age group/neighborhood) is "trying to be an artist"?

Could be totally wrong (it's been a while) but even Berlin seems to not be quite that anymore?

You know what is a delight? Encountering someone who cares deeply about the craft of their work in a realm that you know nothing about. Game recognize game I guess :)

(Also if anyone needs a rec for a integrative bodywork/massage person in Boston, I've got one.)

Curious: When I recently reentered the US and went through immigration, for the first time ever, I went up to the counter and the entirety of the exchange was, verbatim, "Look at the camera...Welcome back Stephanie." (No passport handed over)

Is this a uniform change across all airports?
New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo

“I’m an American citizen so leave me alone”

“Alright, we just got to verify that”

ICE and CBP Agents Are Scanning Peoples’ Faces on the Street To Verify Citizenship
Videos on social media show officers from ICE and CBP using facial recognition technology on people in the field. One expert described the practice as “pure dystopian creep.”
