Sinner beating the 23rd best player in the world with embarrassing ease.

*hershey park has viral video of child walking on monorail track* They then block it off as such: I guess even a 4th can was out of the question.

If Penn State was only allowed to play with whatever they do in the first halves, they would never win.
Addison (@addisonroberts.bsky.social) reply parent
It’s just so crazy that they traded a player who is this good.

I love when you get emotional man. I think you are at least broadly right about this. Tech used to be optimistic and beautiful. Now it is profit driven and cynical. Maybe it was never not profit driven, but there’s no wonder.

You guys said the eagles would be bad last year so now I feel like you saying they are good is a bad omen. Also we did the meal box delivery thing you promoted this week. Not bad with discount. On Mediterranean so excited to try it.

@girinathan.bsky.social heard your distraction pod and I am exactly like your friend. Played heavily for years. More or less checked for probably a decade or more. Just watched Sinner highlights. Geez. Never seen anything like that. The pickups are crazy.
Addison (@addisonroberts.bsky.social) reply parent
Okay this was my thoughts. I saw that their sales were down 15% and they just tried a thing and it went weirdly.
Addison (@addisonroberts.bsky.social) reply parent
Serious question: is the Cracker Barrel thing actually a “woke” decision or did they just weirdly rebrand? Because I see nothing from them about wanting to be more inclusive or anything but I keep seeing posts about it somehow being about race?

I saw someone share the Trump thing and I didn’t know why I was supposed to care that he was stumping for Roger Clemens

This is when I found out. Sincerely. I pretty much know that Roger Clemens is a baseball player and not much else.

The funny part about writing a book on the ethical complications of AI is you feel like you are being very mean about AI even though you honestly aren’t trying to and you end up feeling like people will dismiss it out of hand.

@michaellevin.bsky.social listening to job pod. Has Alyssa met Max Greenfield and is he delightful? Also relative to continuity. I remember the first time I noticed that Pam (office) said she was unathletic in an early season only to be a volley ball pro in a later season. Always was funny to me

Whenever people say “AI is going to replace…” I ask them if they have ever used it and tell of how I once asked it to create a monthly reading list and it made up 6/12 books. Like it should be able to search the internet and give me 12 well reviewed books in a topic. That should work.

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social it’s always really bugged me. Because I want to go, “yeah but that’s not her experience.” It’s the same reflex in play in people who are scared

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social on romanticizing disease, I couldn’t help, but as you did connected to the way, we talked about mental health struggles I have an autistic daughter and I’ve lost count of how often people have said “well some of them are very good at specific things right?”

I love a Bill Simmons ad read where he just truly hates it. The uber eats one where he had to say “chicken parmesan” and “well groomed lawn” was so good. You could feel the disdain. And the one where he just randomly kills pickleball but says he place tennis for a Michelob Ultra

“Content repurposing” is there but the margins will never be great because there will always be low rate video editors. Like 50/mo is probably a real cap

Got on my nerves. It just feels like performative internet stuff. Like “oh heist of the century” Some of the stuff it is just that their end game is social media reaction so they build backwards Works if the week to week feels rewarding (bloodline did imo) Hasn’t felt that way since.

It’s funny how the best AI applications are features and not really main things. Like it can transcribe video. It can organize a spreadsheet. Generative fill is good. None of that makes the capex acceptable.
Addison (@addisonroberts.bsky.social) reply parent
Very good at “hey I need to make a spreadsheet that does this that I will use as a public link thing. Can you make the spreadsheet and then generate a first draft of the instructional email” but these are all things I can do. When people are like “it’s changing the way I think about things,” confuse

Every time I see someone speak confidently about AI, I wonder if they have used the tools they are describing.
Addison (@addisonroberts.bsky.social)
People are saying “systems that will use AI” and you should know that saying “systems that will use Math” is an equally clear sentence. AI can be an image model run locally on a colonoscopy camera to flag abnormalities. AI can be Chat GPT. They are extremely different.

I am researching a book for AI ethics for the Church right now. The inexactness of language around this stuff is also frustrating. AI is a decision tree algorithm that sorts email. AI is also a chat bot. They are completely different beasts. You know?
