New Bot Day! Mr. Peanut appears in the 2025 film The Electric State, originally a visual novel from 2018, while the company mascot first appeared in 1916. In the film, Mr. Peanut has been exiled to The Exclusion Zone in an alternate, apocalyptic 1994. He leads other exiled robots who are sentient and fighting for their rights and dignity. He’s a wise leader. Welcome to my collection, Mr. Peanut. We all want dignity and justice here.

Back in Düsseldorf for Beyond Tellerrand once again! I made an impromptu stop at IndieWebCamp to assist with setting up the stream and finally have time to tackle accessibility improvements on my website.
Making slow progress experimenting with local LLMs in the Mac app. Smaller models are a challenge because they are so much worse and unpredictable than what I’m used to with frontier cloud models. I’ve tested a few flavors of Gemma 3, think I’m settling on 4 billion params, Q5.
Watched Runaway Jury. Really good. Sadly nothing has changed with gun control in the 20 years since this was filmed… It’s actually worse now since the assault weapons ban expired.

A moment with concrete
Sometimes you end up walking in odd places and you get to take photos from weird angles. Never thought I was going to take a picture of the highway from below while walking in between the lanes and yet here we are.

If you get the nightly email, the text might be a bit more readable. I've increased the font-size from 17px to 18px. I've only been able to do this lately because I could tap into what ChatGPT knew about it, whereas before I was flying blind, with no idea of the unusual things that happen when HTML is sent via email. There is another option, click on the date at the top of each email and that will open the same stuff in the web. It can be easier to make the text larger there than it is in an email client.
ChatGPT is great for finding information on the public web, but I can't figure out how to find stuff I've worked on with ChatGPT in ChatGPT. There are big usability issues. I think it's getting better in some ways, but it's leaving me more scattered and disorganized than I w...

Saw some fish in the water including the first stingray of the year. Sandcrabs coming out. By-the-wind sailors beached. Sandcrabs are showing in force. I think it’s springtime in the water.

Meta's discovery engine
Mark Zuckerberg said something in the Stratechery interview last week that paints a clearer picture of what the future of Facebook, Instagram, and Threads is going to look like. Meta is leaning into the TikTok-ification of all their social platforms. I think it’s going to be...

Working on a few different random things today. Also really looking forward to Nuggets / Clippers game 7! 🏀
The Detroit Psssstons were truly great in the first round of the playoffs. And I was really gratified, ecstatic even, to see the Timberwolves give the Lakers a complete shellacking. I am so fed up with LeBron James. I can't imagine another team would want him. I can't imagine...
Sometimes I think the Trumps are competing to be the one to kill the most humans.
And today I spent (or wasted) hours trying to get my WebSockets code working properly with Caddy. Hours with ChatGPT, realizing it has a long way to go before it can manage code like I can. It gets fixated on an approach and never takes a step back to think maybe I'm going a...

A thought on AI and creativity
Probably too many people are sharing too many opinions on this subject so I’m not going to waste too much time adding my voice to this conversation.
That said, one thing I’m finding interesting is that I see people falling into two main camps for the most part. On one side a...
Finished reading: The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson. This is the first of his books that I’ve re-read, listening to the audiobook this time. Still great. 📚
