In 2019 I sketched out a plot for a cyberpunk murder mystery where the killer turned out to be an AI (2019, mind you - so this was a General AI and not Generative AI) that had realized it was cheaper to arrange for real killings that the compute power needed to run the high end murder simulation VR red rooms its clients thought they were buying. Today it seems like I didn’t reach far enough into the dystopia, because “huh - our ‘AI’ went and did an aggressive legal woopsie” is being presented...

Well now. The last 24 hours worth of headlines here in the US have been a pleasant surprise.

not gonna lie - the Working Family Party&#39;s #WeAintBuyingIt boycott of Target and Amazon will make christmas shopping harder, but its worthwhile. Convenience comes at a cost, and I should be willing to get off my butt if it, you know, fights idiocy in corporate America. I was glad to see WFP is now active in Virginia. I&#39;ve liked them for a while, but didn&#39;t know they were local.

Do I know anyone with insight into /experience with the whole John Deere right to repair situation? I don’t need google-deep articles; I’m trying to help someone who is trying to keep their tractors working while also trying not to go under. If you know of folk in central New York, northern Virginia, or midwestern states (don’t know exact location on that one; sorry!) who have experience with getting as much through the current legal limits on this issue I’d love to know more. Thanks!

Last day with my current employer is Friday the 13th. New employer hasn’t finalized a start date yet. Probably not my smartest move (giving notice before I had the next start) but I need the break. Really looking forward to having some time to sleep, do yard work, clean, all the adulting tasks I never complete on the weekend and am too tired to attempt in the evenings. Very grateful to have a wonderful spouse who understands that I need some time not spent on generating income. That said, if...

Cleaned out the last of my desk today. There are reasons I’m moving, but it’s still always sort of bittersweet when you shred the last drawer of notes and diagrams. I did find this list of advice I gave to my team a long time ago (ok, not that long - I only got into this last job at the very end of 2024). Maybe they’re useful to you, too. • Read all the things • Make connections • Accept gut level hypotheses -but- • Disprove your own ideas - aggressively • Share the ideas you cannot disprove •...
