Artemis II splashdown was incredible! Perfect. 😍
Now if only they could get the dang phones working.
I was introduced to Apple by learning BASIC on a IIe when I was 7. So, this morning, I thought I’d write a little “Happy Birthday, Apple” program in BASIC. But there's no basic interpreter for the Mac! So I Apple dorked all the way out and wrote one for my 7-year-old.
I remember the late '00s, the avalanche of constitutional amendments banning gay marriage. I remember the fear, the hate, the huge support for those measures. And now massive majorities support gay marriage. *Massive*.
We win by being visible.
I want to repeat that.
We win by being visible.
All of our research shows that the main way to deradicalize a bigot is for a member of the group they hate to be just... visible. Unremarkable. It doesn't work on everyone, of course, but the lies and fear and hatred that radical bigotry relies on at the most basic levels *CANNOT* survive contact with reality for long.
Being visible is how we beat this. It always has been. It always will be.
Being visible changes the world.
When they fight us, we fight back harder. Listen to your elders.

The notion of a broken clock being sometimes right is based on a gross misunderstanding of what information is.
A clock that always shows the same time is never right, even in the moments of the day when the time happens to be what it shows, because you don't gain any information about what time it is by looking at the clock.
This reasoning also applies to chatbots. If you can't tell whether what you have been given is useful information unless you alreay know the information, then you haven't been given useful information.
I thought the sign read
“Haiku Club” not “Hiking Club.”
We walked for hours. Hours.
