Back to the Future meets Scream. This was quite silly, but also quite enjoyable. Just the right thing to chill on the couch and relax after a long day.

Also, oberflächlich eigentlich wieder ganz gute Unterhaltung. Aber das Thema selbst fand ich doch einfach eine sehr sehr seltsame Wahl für diese Filmreihe. Und die Klischees, die die Charaktere bedienen waren schon zum Augen rollen und "Echt jetzt!??" denken.

Sora might have a 'pervert' problem on its hands Katie Notopoulos turned on the Sora 2 option where anyone can make a video featuring her cameo, and then: I found a stranger had made a video where I appeared pregnant. A quick look at the user's profile, and I saw that this ...

Yours truly on Friday, regarding the news that Meta is going to ban rival AI chatbots from WhatsApp: Perhaps because I’m only a light user of WhatsApp, I had no idea that rival AI chatbots had accounts there. I just tried it with 1-800-ChatGPT and it seems pointless. It’...

Stephen Hackett, writing at 512 Pixels: Apple silicon has been nothing but upside for the Mac, and yet some seem bored already. In the days since Apple announced the M5, I’ve seen and heard this sentiment more than I expected: This is just another boring incremental ...

Katie Notopoulos, writing at Business Insider: There are really two separate issues at hand: Should users be allowed to make fetish content of any woman who is stupid enough (like me) to allow anyone to make cameos of her? And how do you stop people from making fetish co...

Someone on Hacker News asked for tips on setting up a codebase to be more productive with AI coding tools. Here's my reply: Good automated tests which the coding agent can run. I love pytest for this - one of my projects has 1500 tests and Claude Code is really good at sele...

claude_code_docs_map.md Something I'm enjoying about Claude Code is that any time you ask it questions about itself it runs tool calls like these: In this case I'd asked it about its "hooks" feature. The claude_code_docs_map.md file is a neat Markdown index of all of their ...

A lot of people say AI will make us all "managers" or "editors"...but I think this is a dangerously incomplete view! Personally, I'm trying to code like a surgeon. A surgeon isn't a manager, they do the actual work! But their skills and time are highly leveraged with a supp...
