it appears my claim of several months ago was prescient: namely, that it is, indeed, "more like 'L Social',"

technical details are above my pay grade but here's my question: why do they credit people at the end with just a last initial instead of their full names lol

i have no idea who grant is but he must be really rich to fund all these nonprofits and artists and shit

swung by the Google “Gemini Lounge” here at [university] and it feels so like. 2014 coded. “free themed drinks at the sxsw lyft popup” ass event. i’m sure this stuff has existed the whole time but i guess i was in the woods. everyone in my little tour group did the absolute minimum required to […]

also look i try as a policy not to joke about people’s names because names are terrifying and difficult and a site of racist and colonialist microaggressive cruelty and so on. but i gotta say. “tristan buckmaster” is crazy lmao. buckmaster. master of the buck. christ i’m literally running late […]

it's kind of cute that it's called a "laptop" bc it implies that the paradigmatic use case is like, sitting on a couch

this is genuinely apropos of nothing but it feels strange to remember that obama was president during the 2016 presidential election. when i try to summon my sense of “the obama era” it feels so remote, comparatively, like it ended in 2010 or something. i guess in retrospect / affectively the […]

also as i reposted yesterday apparently only 42% of the proofs passed lean verification lol. statistically speaking or whatever that probably invalidates at least some of the results ppl in that top post are freaking out about? i guess i misunderstood the process by which they were arriving at […]

in terms of "progress in mathematics" i'll defer to the experts. as an observer this has clarified to me that, in the same way that these companies don't care that they're ruining the internet whose texts their chatbots trained on, they don't care that they're shredding the communities whose […]
