Only so much time in this world. That's why books have summaries and reviews exist.

there are few things i hate more than the song “try that in a small town.” 1) you call yourself a country musician but you draw the line at “cussing out a cop?” you’re supposed to do coke and write a song about killing a lawman, coward 2) small towns fucking love crime, what are you talking about.

Any interview with an OpenAI, Google or Microsoft executive now has to be treated like you're talking to a politician. No compound questions, make them short, and followups to every single statement they make. Sundar Pichai, Sam Altman and Satya Nadella cannot be trusted.

In the 90s hearing about all the basketball players in their off time they were gambling degenerates and now most of them are nerds who spend most of their time playing video games or building with Legos and i just think that's cute.

Scarlett Johansson says Sam Altman asked her to voice ChatGPT, she said no, and he used an imitation of her voice anyways. Perhaps this says something about his treatment of women and people in general

Gotta love ESPN's strategy of giving us every Indiana Fever game instead of games between objectively good teams.

It is really fucked up that we made driving the main mode of transportation in 90% of the country as an actual political choice when there are large populations of people everywhere who can’t or shouldn’t drive

Johns Hopkins is doing a long-COVID survey and apparently is having trouble finding controls -- people who haven't had COVID. If this is you, consider giving them some clicks.

I just learned that the actor who played the three boobed lady in Total Recall went on to get a journalism degree and helped break the Bill Cosby story. Now that’s a fucking résumé.
