Been musing on the power of humour after wandering by a group of picnicking people absolutely LOSING IT in joyful, uncontrolled, shared laughter. It was lovely & infectious (in a good way).

Found a lichen that apparently found it all very funny too, so that was nice.

We has some younger guests last night, so with an archeological theme, came Sausage Henge (Quorn, mashed potato and peas, an onion gravy ditch added later).

Remarkably it was popular

By the way, I still think this paragraph I wrote is a pretty good paragraph.

Of all the sci-fi franchises, the most scientifically likely features a slow, resource-hungry, capitalism-driven expansion of humanity, leaving mundane mess in its wake, into a galaxy that features no aliens at all - Red Dwarf.

The cold, hard truth is that AI doesn't make anything easier. It makes everything harder, because AI is fucking everywhere, which means you are constantly having to take extra steps to correct its bullshit mistakes, or turn it off if you are able. Extra steps = time wasted.

Look: I, a US citizen, born and raised in the United States, holder of a valid state ID and federal passport, with no criminal record, am not confident I could pass through a US border checkpoint right now without being harassed or even detained. (I have been critical of Donald Trump in public, and that seems to be all it takes.)

If *I* am not confident about that, imagine how anyone without those credentials must feel.

If you are organizing conferences, meetings, etc. that require people to pass through those checkpoints to attend, you need to grapple with this. You are asking attendees to take a serious personal risk.

Looks like Reddit has discovered Low Quality Facts.

"Our glorious leader has blessed us all, by taking away the "beautiful tariffs that will make us all win" he had blessed us with earlier."

Woke up with better, simpler idea for current project that wouldn't involve throwing anything away. Had one extra technical challenge, wasn't sure I'd work it out but found a hacky way while having breakfast 🎉
Might launch today if no other faffy tasks get in the way

Morning all

This week has really driven home that the word “tariffs” ends with FFS.
