I may have found another blue/black, white/gold dress phenomenon. I clearly see Donatello on the couch, with dark purple bands. Three people, two I know IRL, clearly see Leonardo, with blue bands. What do you see? Please somebody tell me I'm not crazy.

Picasso was born Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso, but his tech friends referred to him as P120o.

Everyone always has some crazy explanation, like "I use Vim, because it runs everywhere," but most of the time, I just want all that power to throw together whatever dumb thought pops into my head—like this timeline of Menudo members—while lazily watching TV.

Huge pet peeve: limiting zoom in browsers and photo apps. Just let me keep zooming in if I want to. Stop making me take 3 screen caps, finding each in my photos, one after another, to finally zoom in enough for whatever my needs are.

The Shop app is so awful, I'm just boycotting any company that wants me to track my order with it from now on. "Track your order with the Shop app!" Cancel my order; you're dead to me.

The problem is even worse than I thought, and I thought it was bad. I think we need a new term. AI does not generate content. It generates nontent. I'm calling it "AI nontent" going forward.

Went out to dinner tonight, and thought this meant the Maryland Chicken could be either fried or with cream sauce, and was trying to decide which I wanted. Then mom said she was thinking about getting the fried chicken with cream sauce, and I said "both?" #Haskellbrain #sumtypes

Does anyone know how exactly it is that Google has fallen so far from its former glory? 10+ years ago, it felt like it was reading my mind, and now, I can't get it to find ANYTHING I'm looking for. I can dictate a 20-word title of a page, and it doesn't find it. It's useless now.
