You don’t get to name your kid X Æ A-12 and then say “or whatever his name is” about anyone else.

Elon Musk endorses Cuomo for mayor of New York and makes sure to add some racism in there: “…Mumdumi or whatever his name is.”
Elon Musk: Remember to vote tomorrow in New York! Bear in mind that a vote for Curtis is really a vote for Mumdumi or whatever his name is. VOTE CUOMO! 11:45 AM • 11/3/25 • 1.2M Views

Why is he wearing multiple different hats in the video? What sports team is that Yankees-looking logo supposed to be?
Derrick @derrickwb.bsky.social · 3d
Because that's what the generative AI algo decided.

Also who has 4 Balusters per step on a staircase?
Derrick @derrickwb.bsky.social · 3d
Nah, look at the way the robot maneuvers around him at around the 7 second mark. Very AI-looking to me.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I hate it when firms show off their burger flopping robots. I get that it’s a retrofit solution but the optimal automated burger robot is not going to have a human-like arm. A roomba is a decent robot vacuum, but they want a humanoid robot to push a vacuum to impress investors.

I'm really not sure I can stand hearing people talk about AI for another two years.

CNBC headline: "Elon Musk’s AI-powered Wikipedia competitor goes live after a rocky launch". I've struck through "AI-powered" in red, and replaced it with "Wikipedia-powered" Grokipedia attribution text: "The content is adapted from Wikipedia, licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License."

Any new tools or features for professionals being announced today, or just this mess?

I'm even willing to get excited for generative fill that doesn't suck. It's a genuinely useful feature but its tech is stuck in 2023.

Hell, big names in the tech media think that ChatGPT has wants and desires. The mania is very wide spread.

I feel like since snow is dangerous, we should probably put these vehicles on rails. Since they're on rails we might as well make them significantly bigger so they can hold more people and even connect multiple of them together. They can make stops every several blocks and run on a loop.

Played that AI Quake demo google had several months ago and yeah that thing is the definition of a nightmare. I almost respect it.

Making a deal with Trump is having a gorilla show up outside your house to Christmas dinner and thinking "I'd better invite him in and be nice to him, if I don't he'll probably cause a scene outside and start destroying my landscaping"

Will they be advertising the first Oreos to live on the blockchain?
Derrick @derrickwb.bsky.social · 11d
He'll need $1 Trillion to control deez nuts.
Derrick @derrickwb.bsky.social · 11d
No, that's can't be right. A plethora of internet commentators told me this is impossible.

Reading "Unauthorized Bread" by Cory Doctorow thinking "This is a little bit much" and then reading about how Keurig has a new version where the big new feature is coffee DRM.
