What a genuinely mind-opening way to start Labor Day. Wonderful premise, wonderful piece of writing. We spend our lives trying to educate ourselves out of being talked down to...and here we are.
Fresh new website design, fresh new blogpost up and published. Hope you enjoy!

I asked it to stop talking down to me
I think many people still do not fully understand what modern large language models are.
A normal LLM communication is optimized so that you can understand it.

Cops? Abusing partners? Misusing access? Say it ain't so.
Exclusive: Bad actors have used Flock's massive camera network as a powerful weapon for intimate surveillance. Authorities have charged or accused at least 50 law-enforcement officers of using license-plate readers for unauthorized purposes.

I had the nightmare of getting to see this first hand. I watched someone I loved cater and accommodate her and her daughter's narcissistic abuser for years, because that's what prolonged trauma does to good people. I hope they're okay. 🫶🏼
Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"

“The vast majority of the talent and agents at our events felt that these were a violation of their privacy and were damaging and spoiling the interactions at the tables. Several expressed concerns that they might not continue to attend in-person events if they were being recorded in secret.”

It's always fun to watch a "professional" throw an absolute tantrum about something not going their way. People always tell you who they are eventually, you just have to wait for it.

Something that's been pretty nice in the GitHub Copilot app is how helps me with pixel pushing responsive layouts.
I've been working on a design update for my app PocketCal, and I used it to test screen sizes and it gave me screenshots based on all the ranges I asked for!

Been a fun morning of product launching! Easily one of my favorite tools that @github.com has ever released, so excited for the team who crossed a huge milestone this morning. Are you using the GitHub Copilot App? I'd love to hear what you think. It's become my primary dev surface at this point!

If someone came up to me and used "Approve and Implelement with Autopilot" as a pickup line, I'd probably waive the prenup.

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.
"People have stopped believing that the economy can be good, and have lost the willingness to admit that they are doing well. That pessimism might be harder to fix than an actual downturn," @annielowrey.bsky.social argues.

They lost me at "86-year old" and I'm not reading the rest. Just die and take your pre-Boomer bullshit with you.
Yes Barney Frank is bravely coming out as having the exact same opinion as all of his friends and colleagues.

For years, this message has been consistent like a metronome. And yet they have to keep saying it... Strange.
What? His approval is still at 37%? Who could have predicted this? 🤡
But people don't like his views on the economy, and the war is unpopular? I was told that this was all about the price of eggs? Gasoline? Inflation?
It's almost like his popularity is driven by something else entirely! 🤔

It's amazing how quickly the AI narrative went from "vibe your entire existance, put AI everywhere!" to "Oh, shit, this costs actual money!"
Also ironic that people are complaining about price increases and yet NONE of us know what the actual burdened cost of all this is.
Wild times.

There are a few current situations I know of where I'd encourage this and very much hope it's true.

Was listening to a podcast about the original Bad News Bears, and when it came to the scene where the dad slaps his kid the hosts were adamant: that would never happen today because the dad would have his life destroyed.
Except in Texas. Definitely not in Texas. They don't seem to care there.

BUT the real musical throwback today is to show much love and respect to the Indigo Girls and send a big hug to Emily. As the band I've seen live an order of magnitude greater than any other there's always going to be a special place in my heart and in my life for them.

Throwback to the playlist a 16-year-old I knew logged into my Spotify and made to celebrate her and her mom getting away from their abuser. It's a banger of a playlist, and she's an amazing young woman. I love it. "I Think He Knows" cracks me up.

Of all the pieces of shit that Trump has subjected the country to, and there are a SIGNIFICANT number of them to be sure, Pete Hegseth has to be the most despicable of all of them. The smallest of small dick energy, and that's with him standing next to JD Vance.
He has to end up on trial. Has to.
