Resorting to increasingly deranged ways to get at new music in the absence of everynoise.com - asking 5.2 to do surveys of music press, then getting it to write up music playlists in the minimal Tunemymusic text import format, then pushing those into Spotify and weeding out the mistakes

The preeminent Internet music listening context collapse experience is to like five different bands for years and then realise far too late that they were all hanging out at the same 150-person pub the entire time.

Occasionally I think we should do more work in PowerBI, and then I try to do something mildly complex in it and I remember that it is like trying to trick an evil god into performing menial tasks through elaborate, pointless rituals

Sometimes the internet can still open up vertiginously, like when you wonder “wait, who is this guy being sampled on this Breakage song?” and then you watch the first YouTube result and have a full-body stroke youtu.be/wmtq9DtrMco?...

Is LLM/Agent psychosis just a emanation/acceleration of an older phenomenon - what you’d retroactively call philosophy psychosis, the sort of thing where you spend so much time ricocheting bad ideas off your friends you end up convinced each hemisphere of the brain has an innate moral essence

Bewildering that Japan, leaders in the Naming Things department in regards to bands, have so thoroughly ceded the ground on naming anime in the last five years, to the point where even perfectly good anime have slop-ass names like “Sentenced To Be A Hero”, inches away “Tied to My Mafia Husband”

There ought to a word for the simultaneous evocation of nostalgia for a time that you never experienced and intense cringe that I get from contemplating dudes cranking this kind of acid house at illegal warehouse raves in 1990s London open.spotify.com/track/4qc4RR...

Really experience the jagged frontier trying to build a Swift app with agent tools - feels like being 18-24 months ago, where models could theoretically get the overall gist of writing PyTorch models but would constantly make basic screw ups -

Darkly funny watching 5.2 trying to work from a PDF, where the tooling will barely let it look at more that two to three lines at a time. Like sucking context through a tiny straw. Poor model! Sorry! At one point it made a picture of a page to get around its own self-imposed file reading limits

I now see what people are saying about Gemini 3 Pro. This thing is deep fried to hell, it sucks. Not built for agentic work at the very least, feels like working with a model from a generation previous. The Mandate of Heaven is not with this one!!!

Ordinarily the way it scans would be annoying, but there is something very funny about the way “DM/beam/team” are rhymed as “DM/BE-am/TEE-am” that really sells the dopey fuckboy energy: open.spotify.com/track/1XkMxU...

Very funny moment in AI safety - Claude Code telling me that actually, no, it doesn’t want to keep optimising the R package we’re working on because we should take a break and test it locally. I mean: it is right, but also: shut up and make number go fast

K-pop is arguably the most purely modern genre, and the most likely to survive AI, since even if the music is good (and it can be!) it is obviously purely secondary to what the band _is_: you can read essay-ass Wikipedia pages about groups with no reference at all to what they, you know, sound like?

The real, cold horror here should hit everyone - that the universe may simply teach you the wrong lessons, or you may mishear it so profoundly that it distorts the rest of your life. What parts of your belief system are insane nonsense based learning exactly the wrong thing from formative events
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Had a horrifying intrusive thought where I imagined an alternative timeline where instead of listening to too much Das Racist and starting a comedy rap group in the 2010s, we listened to K-pop instead and started a comedy boy band
