Current home office trends are too dark and gloomy for my liking. I get the sleek aesthetic of it all, but I need my office to feel bright and let in natural light.

I'm trying not to be overly aspirational as well. I do need a piano nook. I'm probably not going to sew as much as I think I might

i felt i was soooooooooooo close to beating hades 2 upper boss, like so close.... (spoiler) probably for the best that there's no health bar cause I probably would have been mad about how close.

Hi everyone! Glad to see you here! I am also here, but you may have noticed I don't post often. I have not forgotten about sakevisual. I'm just that busy at my day job. BUT! I'm always looking for new artists, so no matter how long you've been here, please say hi so I can get to know you!

Yes I decided to not take today off. But I’m hoping for no one to bother me and a chance to work on all my side projects. Here’s hoping

BREAKING NEWS: We’re leading a lawsuit challenging federal attacks on gender-affirming care. Healthcare decisions belong with families & providers, not the government – and the government can't simply use a “declaration” to circumvent basic legal requirements for policy changes. #orpol #breakingnews

I want to take a moment of reflection. I don’t post a lot of threads anymore (bc really who wants to read them) but this seems like a good time to make a few points about wins & losses & surviving & fighting during the Trump administration’s siege on democracy. Especially as 2025 comes to a close.

I also bought a bootleg version of this thing at the container store

it does work, but took a bit of time to figure out how to pull it through the paper without crumpling it up

I was logging off but decided to check my email before I hit shut down. There was a 'this ticket got upgraded to critical' email in the inbox. It wasn't too bad but i felt a little like 'damn if i didn't check could have been relaxing'

Gift shopping for loved ones can be demoralizing because it's oh, you love them? Name literally anything they would like.

I mean sure yeah. I feel like Machine Learning is treated as a subset of AI. At least that is how I encountered it in grad school/work/conferences.

Is logistic regression "AI"? What about convex optimization? Is LLM AI? What about an image recognition system built without using "feature learning" techniques but done through "feature engineering"?

trump is obsessed with trying to get his name on as many things as possible and i hope that there is effort spent making sure every attempt is undone. pretty much all of it is illegal anyways so...

I ended up not getting ikea wrapping paper, and got some from Marshalls Homegoods. But I miss the grid...I can't cut in a straight line to save my life...luckily I anticipated this and bought two roll packs.

I feel like In the Heights is underrated and honestly the whole point of it folks need to internalize. this notion that neighborhoods are not stuck in stasis forever, that things will change.
