This is so funny to me bc I grew up near Philly (West Chester) and even though I can get Tastycakes at the local grocery chain in Charlotte, NC I refuse to b/c my heart says Tastycakes are not authentic unless you buy them at Wawa

When a Philadelphia delegation traveled to the Vatican to meet Pope Leo XIV, they brought a Liberty Medal, Villanova gear, a historical document connected to George Washington… and a Wawa bag full of Tastykakes.

According to the National Constitution Center, the pope, a Villanova graduate, gave a “big belly laugh” when he saw the Tastykakes.

And the story contains one of the most Philadelphia sentences ever printed: “Where else would this happen that you meet up with the archbishop toting Tastykakes in a Wawa bag?” Iconic.

The delegation was there for a serious purpose ahead of next month’s Liberty Medal ceremony. But it’s hard not to appreciate that somewhere inside the Apostolic Palace sat a Wawa bag and a box of Tastykakes.

My goat for grabbing that $$$

TIL when asked about his participation in 'JAWS : The Revenge', Michael Caine famously replied "I have never seen the film, but by all accounts it was terrible. However I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific."

Google just deprecated one of its leading LLMs (2.5-Flash) while its replacement (3.5-Flash) costs 4x as much. The AI bubble burst is going to feel more like a squeeze to anyone who's gotten dependent on these guys Gemini-2.5-Flash: $0.30/M in // $2.5/M out Gemini-3.5-Flash: $1.5/M in // $9/M out

On June 15, 2026, we will remove access to the following Generative AI models on Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform for new and inactive projects only. We will also turn off model tuning on this date.

Looks like Google Health just got a heart transplant from Southwest

I don't even think it's based on a correct reading. I read this as, b/c AI is effectively a simulated brain in a jar (not embodied) it can't be compared with embodied human intelligence. Seems kind of the opposite of mind-body dualism?
