One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

More gnollposting.
Arri never actually made it into any of my TTRPG games, but if he did it would probably look like this. >_>

IMPORTANT

A new scam is going around where you'll be walking down the street and there will be a big red X painted on the sidewalk.

DO NOT STAND ON THE X!!!

If you do, a grand piano will fall on your head!!! This happened to a friend of mine and his teeth were piano keys for weeks!

BE SAFE!!!

Oh no.

So I got a new phone to replace my decaying 8-years-old one. And now it occurs to me that I have a terrible, important, high-stress decision to make.

Which sticker do I put on it?? 😨

It occurs to me that while most tool technologies reward skill, GenAI instead rewards *persistence.* You cannot control or predict the outcome of a prompt so you try variants over and over hoping one hits the goal.

Which makes me think it's not actually a tool any more than a slot machine is. 🤔

I got an actual "Your silence on this subject is deafening" message this AM, so, super-quick: Nobody here owes anyone commentary about anything. This is a public park. It's full of interesting people. We hang out here, make friends, and chat, and then we leave to do whatever it is we do. That's it!

Continuing the gnollposting: the only adoptable I've ever acquired.
A figure of myth whose image is found in royal palace and village shrine, the knight whose power and faithfulness brought the kingdom out from draconic tyranny, whose many names are still invoked today.

This is all true!
If I realize you are doing more than ~2 of these at once I will pitch your book into a river. That is, however, merely personal preference.

Thread on why AI cannot write your entire app for you: if you have specified the problem in sufficient detail for AI to make no dumb mistakes, then you have already done all the work that goes into coding.
Man. Back when I worked in AI we had a system designed to do conference planning. At one point it decided the optimal conference would have every talk be in the same room, one minute long each. (They'd all have great seating and AV access, you see!) Glad to see the state of the art hasn't improved.
Just saw a similar anecdote on Reddit. Poster's company had decided to use an "AI assistant" to schedule interviews, so that they'd be evenly distributed throughout the week. All 50 applicants were, you guessed it, called up on the same day, at the same time.

My local supermarket apparently sells those Swedish dishcloth things and I was required to get this one.

Republican breaks with the party: the right dogpiles that individual
Result: nobody breaks from the Republican party anymore

Democrat breaks with the party: the left dogpiles every Democrat
Result: Democrats ignore the left

I've been posting a bunch of my gnolls, but maybe you want one for your own adventuring party? Don't worry—we've got you covered for that too!

Okay look.

"The purpose of a system is what it does" is a rule to say that intent doesn't matter in analysis.

It is NOT a rule to say that the creators or operators of a system always have secret evil motivations. That's just conspiracy bullshit.

Continuing the Fantasy RPG hyenoids, this is Garrh. Former mercenary, former berserker, now permanently attached to a certain alchemist-merchant due to helping each other out of a bad situation.

The sword is a dragon fang. (Or at least he brags that it is when drunk.)

Do you live in Illinois, New Hampshire, Virginia, or Nevada?*
Time to make some angry phone calls! Yes, actual phone calls. And yes, only those states, because the first thing a senator's office does with an out-of-state comment is throw it out. 😑

(* Or PA, though that's Fetterman so good luck. 😒)
These are the Democrats who voted yes:

Dick Durbin
John Fetterman
Maggie Hassan
Tim Kaine
Catherine Cortez Masto
Jacky Rosen
Jeanne Shaheen

Yeah it sucks, but keep in mind that's only about 16% of Senate Democrats. Most sided with Chuck Schumer and voted against it.
