AI code has the same level of quality as AI art and AI poetry and AI novels and AI architecture and AI films: it’s shit. And where it works it’s because it’s plagiarized. And when parts of it work well, that doesn’t mean the other parts aren’t dangerously shit.

"Same Time, Next Year" (Ellen Burstyn, Alan Alda) is a special film for me. On my 40th birthday, my husband Ken took me for a romantic weekend up the coast from San Francisco to the inn where this film was set. Now I watch the film on Valentine's Day,celebrate to Jane Olivor's signature song track 🩷

💡 Here is the electricity schedule in my Kyiv neighborhood rn.

All energy-consuming activities must be timed for when there’s power.

Right now, I’m charging all devices & preparing clothes for tomorrow’s opportunity to do laundry.

We get by thanks to the formidable repair work of energy workers.
