I'd love to get a sex change. I'll take "none" to "some", thank you very much.

FWIW I always felt my contribution would have been towards "real" AI rather than the current pseudo-AI stuff that is all the rage. In addition to being a programmer, I also have a background in evolutionary biology and neuroanatomy. The "neural networks" that are part of current AI were originally based on the understanding of how neurons function that existed in the 1970s, and they were (and are still) a poor implementation of that level of knowledge. IMHO true AI can be achieved by more accurate simulation of how real neurons and real neural networks function and how they have come about in the real world through hundreds of millions of years of evolution by natural selection.

That being said, "real" AI is probably going to be even worse for humanity than this current stuff is, so at least I'm glad that blood won't be on my hands.

need drugs to help?

Probably so. I also haven't smoked weed since 2021, and I never coded sober.

God damn, is there any bad news at all from yesterday's voting?

Make your own! ThatDudeCanCook on youtube has a great video on making your own kebab meat.

Annie, are you Oakley? Are you Oakley, Annie?

Saudi Arabia let Idi Amin live out the last couple of decades of his life in undeserved peace. Not that there's any kind of link between Saudi Arabia and Republicans ...

I haven't written a line of code since 2019. I have an old iOS project that I want to revive, but I genuinely wonder if I still have the ability to do anything with it. Fortunately, my motivation has tanked even harder than my programming skills.

I was a programmer for 25 years. I always figured I could have made a contribution to AI research, but the opportunity never came up (I was too busy writing Skype clones for cable companies and ISPs that were never used by anyone). I regretted this for a long time, but not any more. I never imagined AI would be this fucking bad, "bad" in the sense of bad for humanity and just plain bad as a product.

we are leaving Texas in far better shape than it’s ever been

Yes, that's always why an incumbent loses 60-40. Because they just did too great a job running the place.

I don't know how it tastes, I just use it to clean my Corinthian leather.
