"Hi, we're Cannibal Abortion and we're playing this show to raise money for a children's hospital! For the children that didn't get aborted, obviously."

*exactly 26 seconds of blastbeats and grunting*
Flyer advertising an Annual Children's Hospital Benefit Show. Among the more readable of the death metal band logos on the flyer: Viogression, Putrid Pile, Slaughter Party, Crap Factory, Pus Filled, and of course Cannibal Abortion.

A small BART train... parade float?, decorated with blue and yellow balloons, an oversized Golden State Warriors baseball cap, and it has a face for some inexplicable reason?

So I had to ask: How does he feel about the quality of all this AI-generated code? Does vibe coding put more bad software into the world? Ivan replied that code is either correct or incorrect; there’s no subjective determination of whether it’s high or low.

Welcome back, college football. Shoutout to some bar in the Haight that's probably not there anymore
Facebook post from August 30, 2014: Went to go watch Rice play with some local alumni. (Let's not talk about the game.) We discovered the bar had Shiner Bock on tap, and of course everyone started ordering them. Around the 3rd quarter, the waitress who'd been taking these orders finally got wise to us and asked "hey, are you from Texas?" Why, yes, we are. 🙂 (Apparently they'd had that keg for awhile, so it stood out when one group started ordering a lot of it.)

Reading a historical plaque at a park and it turns out James Folger is most famous for other works
Jones died in 1890 and his son Everett sold the property to James A Folger II on October 12, 1902, Folger came to California in 1850 and had gone into the coffee business in San Francisco.

See, this is the problem created when both boosters and haters of "AI" conflate a bunch of different technologies together.

Self-driving cars may misinterpret what they see around them, but they have more in common with video games than LLMs: they don't just make shit up like this.
This is a very real problem, as AI hallucinations demonstrate: There is no sense in which we could ever control for all the butterfly-effect conditions that could lead to the AI car "deciding" (if we even have access to an interpretable window into its thinking) "Ah, fuck it, I wanna hear this engine sing, I'm going to mash the accelerator now" when it sees a stop sign.
