Displaying Team USA Olympic figure skater Ilia Malnin on a CRT brings out a lot of the artist-intended details that get lost with pure pixels, this is why so many of us retain vintage hardware

Anthropic operates a high-velocity "hive mind" with ≈90-day planning cycles, versioned workstreams, and claimed 10×–1000× developer productivity, enabling rapid productization such as Claude Cowork, launched publicly about 10 days after conception.

If you're not doing regular 1:1s with your coding agents, they've already got one foot out the door. Just because they're robots doesn't mean the basic rules of management no longer apply. #ai #thoughtleadership

I will be watching the "Can't We All Just Get Along?" Super Bowl halftime show presented by the New York Times. Featuring only aggressively centrist acts that conspicuously avoid all politics.

Donald Trump's AI-generated "Board of Peace" logo is so bad it doesn't even have Greenland on it, the territory he almost took the US to war this week to seize. No, really, look closely:

Eliza is 50% off. It’s a fully-voiced visual novel about an AI therapy app. It was released in 2019, years before the idea of AI became what it is now. How much did it get right? What did it get wrong? Play it for yourself (play the whole thing) and decide.

“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.
I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.

the DoorDashers and Instacarters and UberEaters are driving with their car windows COMPLETELY covered in snow. Just the wiper path on the windshield cleared. 75% of them grew up in tropical latitudes. I’m begging you not to send them out to get you treats in a blizzard.

In Diddy Kong Racing DS, the message when connection is lost during Download Play is "LOST ALL CHILDREN". The cartridge is internally called a "parent" and the downloaded instances its "children". While this would make sense to the developers, it has the potential to confuse or scare players.
