I watched my friend Clint do his first ever standup comedy routine tonight. He did great and it was a awesome reminder we all need to keep learning and burning new neural pathways. #learn #comedy

I really need to see the iFixit tear downs for HomeView and the new Apple TV 4K to help me make sense out of how they’re both priced at $299. #apple #homeview #appletv

Elon Musk lost his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAi because sometimes the rules (in this case, the statute of limitations) apply to the ultra wealthy, too. #ai #musk #altman #court https://jeffgamet.com/jury-says-nope-to-musk-lawsuit-against-openai/

I wasn&#39;t planning on writing a second blog post today, but how could I pass up talking about the Plex Pass $500 price hike? #subscription #streaming #ouch https://jeffgamet.com/plex-lifetime-pass-gets-a-500-price-hike/

Meta cutting 8,000 jobs to redirect money into its AI strategy says a lot about the value Mark Zuckerberg and his company puts in their employees. #ai #layoffs https://jeffgamet.com/zuckerberg-sacrifices-8000-employees-for-ai-dream/

I have new neighbors moving in next door, so I went over and introduced myself and welcomed them to the neighborhood. They were pleasantly surprised and told me this was the first time they&#39;ve lived someplace where a neighbor said &quot;hi.&quot; Go meet your neighbors, people. Be part of your community!

@flargh@mastodon.social Same. The companies that use freelancers like me for their writing gigs are drying up as they decide AI content is good enough, and certainly cheaper. Businesses aren't hiring people with our particular skill set, or they're posting ghost openings. Waking up every morning in this timeline feels Sisyphean at best.

Some days are really tough, and this definitely is one of them. My dear friend John Martellaro passed away today. John is one of the smartest people I&#39;ve ever met and had the kind of resumé most of us can only dream of. He was an astrophysicist. He worked for NASA. 1/4
