@fromjason the way AI could become a kind of capital they can control is if it just gets inserted everywhere regardless of whether it's useful or not. So that—to within a rounding error—all knowledge work and just general daily activity involves an AI at one or several stages. Because at that point, it's no longer a product, it's the literal environment that information flows through.

Things that I won’t use, even to mock or joke about it:

* Generative AI
* Incel slang
* MAGA or nazi imagery

I think this is a reasonable boundary.

I remember when I used Apple products because they didn’t shit in your head with random advertising everywhere

(I have never used Uber Eats, never had the app installed, and I have no idea where this has come from or how to turn it off)

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

The footage appears to contradict President Donald Trump’s claim it was an Iranian missile that hit the school on Feb. 28.

You can now buy a MacBook, iPhone, and iPad for just over $1,500. All are fairly capable machines that run native software.

The new MacBook Neo is particularly interesting because its existence implies a more powerful counterpart—perhaps a new MacBook Pro "Ultra" that could run a native LLM or agentic AI model.

All this is, imo, a good thing. Or, better than the alternative. Apple's hardware strategy might be the only thing in the way of the rest of big tech's cloud-first strategy.

Everyday I fight the urge to not be another man with a podcast lmao. But I have noticed there really isn't a round-table format for tech happenings. All the weird shit the tech world is up to.

I have an itch to produce something. Maybe it's a podcast. Maybe it's a comedy sketch show. Idk. I want to make something grand.

Thank you thank you to everyone who shot me five bucks because they enjoyed my writing. Six years ago Jason, the guy who wanted to start writing again but didn't know where to start, would be really impressed that people like my writing enough to pay me for it.

My hope is one day, in five or ten years, writing can be like a part-time or even a full-time job for me— to be a *fully independent* writer on the open web. Not sure how to get there yet but it's on my mind.
