Internet pro tip! Sometimes people will make wry observations about current events without specifically naming the event or linking to a complete explanation. While this may be alarming, responding "huh?" will not solve the problem

these ai coding platforms made the mistake of trying to use a subscription model for something that lights up the same dopamine receptors as gambling. all genAI has some RNG baked in, so you end up with users rerunning prompts to get a good result like they're pulling the lever on a slot machine.

I saw something recently that said a strategy for adhd is you just need to commit to doing 30%. The full scope of 100% of a project is just too overwhelming. So just start with some thumbnails or sketches for now and then commit to another 30% another day or week. Any progress IS progress

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Every designer and photoshopper you know has spent hours or days trying to mimic this look in photoshop without just literally hand-painting everything and, it simply cannot be done

There are thousands of tutorials out there that are like “This is sorta pretty close! I think!”

when I was like 12 I went to the California science center which had a "drunk driving simulator" educational arcade type game and if you were too good at it the game would automatically crash the car after a while so you didnt undermine their message

I've been quiet for a while. It's been due to a number of factors, the most prominent of which is poor health.

I need surgery, and I'm stuck in limbo. Please help.
