Trying to create a better web...but I'm on X mostly for politics and current affairs.

@BenjaminHouy @emerald_springs Also sorry, don't know if I ever replied to your last DM, X is insisting I download the app on my phone if I want my DM's and I refuse 😂

[Chris @codefreechris]

@RealAstropulse @AlexBinninger @BenjaminHouy you also experience this a lot right?

[Chris @codefreechris]

@jesse_vermeulen Seriously, which crackheads are using a mouse for Figma? I guess windows users with their tragically shit trackpads? 🤷‍♂️

[Chris @codefreechris]

@thsottiaux how do I stop the context compacting loop of death? Or rather, is there something you guys can do to stop that from happening? :)

[Chris @codefreechris]

@koltregaskes You have to learn that the 2 weeks after a major release you've always got another reset coming around the corner, banked or forced 😛

[Chris @codefreechris]

I refuse to believe these are real

There is a name renaissance underway in College Football and no one is talking about it

It took Kamala Harris losing an entire election and watching three primaries go anti-genocide before she’d even get on the phone with Mamdani or meet with pro-Palestinian activists. Yet it took Lindsey Graham zero effort to get a heartfelt eulogy out of her. That’s who she is.

@i_zzzzzz @BenjaminHouy 😂

[Chris @codefreechris]

@NoContextBrits They both look like someone's nan to be fair.

@BenjaminHouy The cat was out of the bag the day chatgpt was released - whatever happens next is inevitable and unavoidable. Dario thinks the same, he just has a god complex that makes him think he can control it (paired with being deluded enough to think LLM's will lead to the apocalypse).

[Chris @codefreechris]

@leanderriefel 100%

[Chris @codefreechris]

@BenjaminHouy I think he's actually just genuinely paranoid and thinks he's smarter than he is (obviously he is objectively very smart though, don't want to downplay that haha). He was part of the OpenAI teams that delayed the release for gpt-2 and 3 because they thought they were too risky 😂

[Chris @codefreechris]

@BenjaminHouy I do suspect that AI psychosis is also effecting leadership in the actually LLM companies and not just every other CEO. No doubt Dario is gaslighting himself via his own tool into thinking everything is an imminent threat.

Photo 1 (widely shared 2023 version): Mitch McConnell and Elaine Chao in a recovery/rehab setting. McConnell wears the red gingham shirt, smiles broadly while holding printed material, seated in the blue chair with white linens behind

Photo 2 (the version associated with the July 12, 2026 update): Appears identical to Photo 1 in every visible detail — same clothing, exact same pose and expressions, same background, same blue chair, same item in McConnell’s hand, same lighting and composition.

Side-by-side observation: These are the same photograph (originally from April 2023). No meaningful differences exist in subject positioning, clothing, facial expressions, background elements, or any other visual detail. Minor variations in cropping, resolution, or on-screen overlays (e.g., news logos or borders in different articles) may appear depending on the source, but the core image content is unchanged.

This confirms the image being referenced in recent discussions is the older one being recirculated. If you have different specific versions/URLs in mind, share them for further comparison!

Someone has some splaining to do!

@jakelarsenart My original reply was actually pro-professional-creative-practice, but clearly too nuanced for reflexively defensive designers and artists on x.

[Chris @codefreechris]

@JakeSwearingen @jakelarsenart I literally have an art studio and a masters in fine art, jog on gooner.

[Chris @codefreechris]

@fesshole Honestly, just because tiktok has shown you a different method it doesn't make the original one childish.
