WWE constantly loves reminding me why I made a good choice in stopping watching.

I finally finished watching Buffy for the first time. Pretty good show that. I think it has moments of brilliance, an average episode rating of ‘good’, and an unfortunately rushed finale. I think if they stuck the landing it might have bumped up the rating a little, but for now I’ll give it a 7/10.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.

The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

I think weapon durability in videogames is bad.

(I don’t mean limited ammo/rechargeable resource. I mean if you use it too much, you lose it permanently. I think that’s silly.)

Corporations will always hate anything with a human face because it's ultimately something they can't control.

Might be time to start booing him again.

Nationally Published Troll @mongoebooks.bsky.social · Apr 17

Roman Reigns announcing he is a Trump supporter in the funniest way possible in his Vanity Fair piece.

“One person was giving us information. One person was answering questions, so it wasn’t that hard,” he says

When I ask if that means that he backed Trump, Anoa’i pauses for a few seconds.

“I support our president. Trump is one of those guys where he’s got a vast history and a huge background. He’s been in entertainment. He’s been in big business, politics,” Anoa’i says.

At this point, I’m supporting a bright future for our country. Positive and competent leadership. For us to be what we’re supposed to be—to be a world leader and carry that respect and do what a world power like us should be doing.”
