This is a good example of the ouroboros problem with LLMs. Ask Google AI a Q, it provides a link to its source, which is someone quoting ChatGPT!

It's not necessarily wrong, but is reinforcing second-hand info instead of reliable original info.

Oh, and wish me luck, running my first 5K this wkend

Typical republicans… all tax cuts, no spending cuts.

10 YEARS since WordCamp Maui and every time I visit my mom she pulls out this swag just for me.

Thank you to all my fellow organizers and speakers that made it possible. #WCMaui

Find and share a photo from it if you want to really make my day.

One awesome thing about using ChatGPT for coding. I asked it to update my crontab file on my DiskStation. It did and made a surprising choice to path scripts to /var/services/homes/ instead of /volume2/homes/ I asked a follow-up to explain why and learned something I never would have otherwise.

Nice! I just designed and printed some brackets like this for the battery in the generator enclosure I built a couple of months ago, next time will try your webapp!

The US stock market has lost 6 TRILLION in value since Trump took office. That's value US companies could have leveraged to invest in their own growth....

Meanwhile, Trump's Tariff Taxes are estimated to bring in 700 BILLION... so much winning.

I knew the alias I'd just created to enumerate IPs of LXC containers on my Proxmox server had a syntax errors due to not escaping quotes. Rather than debug that manually, I ran through Warp, which found the errors and fixed them. Then _knew_ on its own it needed to source zshrc before running it 🤯

Class action payouts for data breaches are a meaningless deterrent to businesses.

$20 is barely worth my time to claim, it's certainly not compensation for dealing with the spam, ID fraud, and account hacking that leaked data like this leads to.

Well... that's a pretty big AI fail from Google on something that should be pretty easy.

Interesting thing about #DeepSeek is that it will answer a question, and the upon completion of typing out the answer it’ll vanish with a censorship message in its place. Like it knows the truth, it just can’t handle the truth.

Looks like Texas and Florida each received 2-3x the federal disaster relief dollars per capita that California has...

You might be amazed what you can learn from clicking and reading, especially if you also click though the provided links and read that. Omg the learning that is possible! Next you’ll have to Google what “in development” actually means on IMDb.
