@jezza haha Actually Indians is great!

I’ve been saying I’ll keep putting “AI” in scare quotes until it politely requests otherwise for at least two years now…

Why You Can't Say "Christmas" in Hawaiian

Anything beyond rich text in an email is a disaster; why did we ever think that was a good idea?

Small town win:

Neighbour comes to the door. He found a phone while snowblowing my sidewalk. (Bonus win.)

Turns out it belongs to a kid down the street—but how did we know?

Well it had a notification from my kid on the screen.

If you insist on denying that a tomato is a fruit, I'll insist on assuming you're an American living in somewhere between 1883 and 1913

@jezza haha love it!

And here's @ryan's piece https://ohryan.ca/2025/12/10/winnipeg-your-denser-than-you-think/

My friend @ryan wrote about calculating real population density and it got me wondering why we don't just have one transit company in the Edmonton population centre https://levisan.me/articles/what-even-is-population-density-and-why-is-multi-city-transit-so-hard.html

@jezza I don't disagree!

I guess what I'm trying to say is… is it really bad that it can't actually create something new, assuming the users know what's going on? Ignoring the mediocre-or-worse media being produced, but for other uses.

If only "we" can pivot "AI" away from being a thing being used for slop and focus on better uses…
