Embracing the robot overlords since 2025. I write about tech and AI so you don’t have to—and yell about food as a hobby. Ex-MSFT, IBM, Linux Foundation, ZDNET. Creator of RiskyEats. Opinions are mine, not my employer.

Wrote a long personal essay about an unexpected side project and what working with modern AI systems actually felt like.

No advice, no hot takes. Just a snapshot from the middle of it.

I will always remember Catherine O'Hara for her comedic roles, but her role as Delia Deetz in "Beetlejuice" will resonate with me always www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNQd...

Apple loves to market “health” and “accessibility,” yet iOS updates keep breaking Bluetooth medical devices. My mom’s Miracle-Ear app won’t connect again. Assistive tech needs LTS-style stability, not yearly regressions.

Dilemma: a new Montreal smoked meat place opened near me. Food looks great. They invited Roger Stone to the opening. Nope. Not even considering it. Could be the best deli sandwich on earth. It’s rotten now.

I know most of you guys are too mature to drink Mt. Dew, but for those of us who like our fruit-flavored drinks with a lot of caffeine:

This is delightful. It tastes like what you WISH dragon fruit tasted like. Because, c'mon: admit it. Dragon fruit is weak - mid at best and ONLY because it's cute

(PITCH) Matzo Bowl: a Jewish soup house, not a deli.
Think pho or ramen, built around chicken bone broth. Handmade egg noodles. Artisan matzo balls. Pick your broth, noodles, and matzo style. No pastrami. Soup is the main event.

“What you've said is a generalization” “Actually no, I have the data that supports it, look.” “Well, I'm not gonna look at that, and just restate my opinion again.”

FBI historian here. Basically all of the FBI’s greatest scandals across history come from attempts to criminalize First Amendment rights. It never works out well for the bureau and ends a lot of careers.
I would like to know how my prior colleagues, who have chosen to pursue leadership positions under this charlatan, justify ordering agents to break their oaths of office and open investigations on people simply for exercising their legal rights.

Good luck gazing in the mirror when this is all over.
