I've joined Lumon and have been working in MDR. The work has been mysterious and I've been learning to trust my intuition using the Terminal of Woe.
No April Fools… Happy 19th Anniversary to nemu*nemu, the comic that brought @kyubikitsy and I together! To celebrate, please enjoy reading one of the comics (or all of them!)
Watched the Severance season 2 finale last night so I wouldn’t have to avoid spoilers today. I’m still thinking about it… What a crazy ride that was!
🍿Stand by Me is a classic and one of my favorite movies. It's currently just $4.99 so I picked it up. Maybe one day, it will be upgraded to 4K…
Finally…
iTunes has a sale on Alien 7-Film Collection for $39.99, including Alien: Romulus. Will probably pick this one up just to get Alien and Aliens in 4K.
The folks at the Iconfactory released their new app Tapestry today! I've been beta testing the app and love it. It lets you view blogs, social media feeds, Reddit subs, Youtube channels all in one chronological timeline.
I saw a couple of news stories saying that there is “substantial evidence” that DeepSeek used the output of OpenAI’s models to help develop its own technology… and OpenAI isn't too happy about it.
😂 That's rich! I guess it's perfectly fine for them to steal everyone's content, but the moment they get a taste of their own medicine, they start crying foul.
Ben Thompson's DeepSeek FAQ is a great explainer if you're wondering what you missed over the last 72 hours and why the US market seems to be in a panic. After reading, it feels like there still isn't any moat for any AI tech company, and maybe the chip bans are actually helping to make AI more efficient.
On days like this, I wish my RSS reader had keyword blocking. It would be really useful for the years ahead.
ICYMI: Week 2/2025 went up yesterday.
Also, I realized that technically, the first week of the year started on Sunday, December 29, so maybe this should be Week 3/2025? But whatever. This is gonna be the numbering unless I think of something else…
ICYMI: I actually blogged something yesterday…
The end of December means very few new music releases. Time to review all the stuff I've been listening to during 2024 and figure out which will make the favorites list.
My most used and favorite app, Drafts has a great New Year's deal: 50% off for the first year of Drafts Pro!
2024 can end now that I know new Yotsuba is coming!
