Got some banger quotes in, but they spelled my name wrong. www.afr.com/world/north-...
The Fox News video thumbnail for a story about Nicole Brown is ... well it is pretty much exactly what you might guess it would be.
Testing posting images between Mastodon and Bluesky with Wallflower. My daughter's "Genius Hour" presentation on the NES. Her history lesson is my childhood. https://thewallflower.app
Trying to think of a clever name for the pane in Wallflower where you can combine a bunch of Mastodon or Bluesky lists into one stream. Leaning towards "Confluence."
My latest steam blow-off side project: Wallflower, a *very* opinionated Mastodon client with the aesthetic of PIVOT that will likely appeal to no one but me.
Back to typewriters. No modern human with the inclination to do so has the physical fortitude to tap out a baloney reappraisal of Wong Kim Ark on this thing.
Can someone smarter than me explain how ceasefires work? I’m suddenly hit by the feeling that the term is not self explanatory and I’ve been operating under at lease one main misapprehension.
Yeah, but who could have predicted *that*?! (Me, but also like lots of people smarter than me.) news.bloombergtax.com/tax-insights...
This strongly suggests, if doesn’t outright say, that this isn’t one of those cases where it’d be a war crime. Or there’s some nuance you, the reader, needs to grasp.
“Blame someone else” doesn’t appear to be an element here but admittedly it’s been a long time since I took criminal law and the answer is AI.

“On May 4, 2021, the Ninth Circuit ruled in Lemmon v. Snap, Inc. that Snap does not enjoy Section 230 immunity for product-design claims — a landmark ruling that exposed the company to design-defect liability for the first time. On July 21, an eleven-year-old in Enfield, Connecticut died.”
Meta kind of hedging what they promise vis a vis Facebook. tostracker.app/document/fac...
This one automates the process of highlighting changes in legal documents (in this case, Netflix’s Terms of Use and a tweak to their cancellation policy) and generates a visual summary that can drop right into a paper or report. Heres the output figure for the above.
Over the weekend I worked on a feature for tostracker.app that I needed, and hopefully it'll have utility for others: automatic figure generation for (likely mostly academic) writing.
Testing a tostracker.app feature to generate figures of set changes in TOS/privacy policies/etc. for academic writing purposes.
Aww hell yeah man. What if the dog isn't dead, it's just resting? What if tomorrow remembers us better than today ever could? What if the dream didn't die, it just changed its name? What if I'm stronger now because I broke back then? What if letting go is another form of holding on?
This guy has been thoroughly cleaned and restored to good operation. He will live in my office at Drexel to remind students that, despite my youthful demeanor, I am in fact impossibly old.
