@ADavidHaleJoint No team in the ACC deserves a spot. Too many other, better teams.

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@ADavidHaleJoint As I watched that final 1:04 and the OT, I was just anticipating your write up, how the ACC can't have nice things, etc. Also this did not make me feel better about the 1 point Clemson loss to Duke at home (first since ABBA was charting), that PI call, etc.

@James1940 I have listened to the first 2 at least 6 full times each. I have every JH title on Audible but these 2 are my favorites. Can’t wait for pt. 3

When I ask Grok to show me a picture of something, why does it give me instructions for finding a picture using other sources? @elonmusk

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@Fall_of_Civ_Pod @WELBooks I just LOVE your work. But didn't you leave X for bluesky?

@AwakenWithJP re: Joe Rogan, apparently telling the truth without bias makes you "right leaning"

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@firefoxx66 I agree with your first point! Re: “And let’s do it..” look at the incentives. Every single decent member who has tried what you suggest got nowhere. They’ve had 40 years to do it that way and it just gets worse.

@catturd2 Everyone talking big at the table and then the check comes and they slip out the back

@linasbeliunas As a data scientist who has access to a private instance of Open AI, my opinion is that this is akin to a bicycle company saying they plan to rent autonomous vehicles for $20k a month and regular light duty trucks for $10k.

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@elonmusk But what about the $1M of food in a locked warehouse? Funny how an org gets billions and we are supposed to focus on the good they did with 2% of that money….

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@catturd2 He’s a comedian. Last funny at least a decade ago. He’s baiting.

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@elonmusk 💯

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@jeffreytucker Agree completely. This has been my #1 concern since I could vote. We rack up unfathomable debt and anyone who raises concern is silenced. I never thought this type of reform would happen in my lifetime.

@catturd2 @nypost People will read this and scream favoritism etc. but if you ask them, they won’t be able to describe the case. SpaceX must hire legal residents/citizens by law.

Can’t believe I typed that entire rant and forgot to mention I don’t want to leave a 25% tip on the touchscreen.

I don’t want to connect my coffee machine to the wifi network. I don’t want to share the file with OneDrive. I don’t want to download an app to check my car’s fluid levels. I don’t want to scan a QR code to view the restaurant menu. I don’t want to let Google know my location before showing me the search results. I don’t want to include a Teams link on the calendar invite. I don’t want to pay 50 different monthly subscription fees for all my software. I don’t want to upgrade to TurboTax platinum plus audit protection. I don’t want to install the Webex plugin to join the meeting. I don’t want to share my car’s braking data with the actuaries at State Farm. I don’t want to text with your AI chatbot. I don’t want to download the Instagram app to look at your picture. I don’t want to type in my email address to view the content on your company’s website. I don’t want text messages with promo codes. I don’t want to leave your company a five-star Google review in exchange for the chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card. I don’t want to join your exclusive community in the metaverse. I don’t want AI to help me write my comments on LinkedIn. I don’t even want to be on LinkedIn in the first place.

I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@elonmusk You built a market breaking product, and will be just fine.

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@elonmusk @DOGE He is completely out of touch and grasping at straws.

[Chan Bulgin @chanbulgin]

@elonmusk Watch carefully those who scream the loudest about being asked to account for and explain the status quo. They are who we should be concerned about.
