Uh oh. Just got robocalled by EKOS with a federal election-themed poll. #cdnpoli #PleaseNo

I've been happily using an online to-do list system called Todoist for years.

One thing I like is you can forward emails to it and the emails become tasks. And you can specify the due date when you do it. Very handy.

Today, I noticed a couple of emails I'd forwarded had totally confusing task names and the wrong due dates.

Can you guess why?

Yes. That's right. They've introduced AI.

I think I've turned it off, but really annoyed that they just did it without asking.

Tired: Getting the devs to do "world building" by writing a few bits of text

Wired: Getting actual game writers to craft all the necessary world building text and help with your plot etc

Fired: Getting the devs to do "world building" by writing a few prompts and hoping that the large language model slop remains coherent and in character and relevant

Theoretically I could CW this... but I will not. Just because I do not feel like it.

I saw someone's first (massive!) garden Christmas decorations today. Bit early, isn't it?

Could (would) Broadcom Buy Intel?

We think it is unlikely that Broadcom would buy Intel, but they could. And they will know before any of us how sustainable Intel’s turnaround is.

#BellBottomBlues #PleaseNO #EverythignOldIsNewAgain

Oh, dear. Not AGAIN?

My sisters had ridiculously large bell bottom jeans in high school.

I was in hand me down "Sears Tough Skins." (Mid 70's)

I cannot handle these are being offered again. But I guess the whole leg is wide, not just the bottom.
