I made a web app to read and share the verses of the Book of the Living, from Octavia Butler's "Parable" series. It's not very pretty but it works well and I am proud of it.

Here’s all his posts in the thread. Where in this thread is he saying what you claim?
I’m open to the idea that he in general believes what you claim but I’d need to see evidence of it somewhere, and it’s not in this thread.

This from @gruber.foo traces perfectly one of the core fault lines in AI today. A dog that speaks perfect English 80% of the time is, in fact, “incredibly impressive”. It’s just not something you can productize beyond its novelty.

I have a lot of records — mostly dance 12”s, a lot of Joni and a chunk of indie stuff mostly picked up for cheap. So im always always shocked that @themountaingoats.bsky.social FFG is — i think — my most valuable record. $5.50 at mystery train in Amherst in probably 2002.
