Every single Christian Watson catch from the 2025 regular season...

Worth every penny.

The agonizing tension between teaching clients how to use Claude so they stop asking dumb questions and remembering that those clients pay you to be able to ask dumb questions.

"em dash is an AI indicator" "semicolons are an AI indicator" "describing things in threes is an AI indicator" "the word genuinely is an AI indicator" "the oxford comma is an AI indicator" "flowery prose is an AI indicator" should we all die? should we just kill ourselves

Strong “we’ll never use that damn horseless carriage” energy.

There are some very real concerns and dangers associated with AI, but the tendency of humans to violently resist change and innovation no matter what form it takes is fascinating.

In 5-10 years, "No AI" or "Zero AI" will be a badge of honor for companies, like "eco-friendly" or "plastic-free" or "no GMO" is today. It’ll be a mark of distinction.

Happy Opus 4.8 Day to all who celebrate!

My “I am not antisemitic and that lawsuit was dismissed” shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.

This is objectively the worst Issues page on any campaign of all time

"What happens when the thing you used to sell becomes almost free?"

Thought-provoking piece from @rubenhassid — who is doing some really great writing on how to use AI (specifically Claude) effectively:

I mean, you knew I was going to have a thought on Google's AI Search guidance, right?

Google wants SEOs to stay the janitors of the web. Their new AI Search guide is the proof.

The "it's just SEO" crowd is celebrating it like an album release party. They were waiting for permission to keep doing what they were already doing.

Naturally, I have a different position.

Y'all are being naive af.

This is equivalent to trying to sell a cop drugs while he’s in uniform in his police car.

Braves fans are familiar with the 2011 bullpen trio of Eric O'Flaherty, Johnny Venters and Craig Kimbrel.

We're only in mid-May, but here is some comparative context on how elite the current trio of Iglesias/Suarez/Lee has been. Absolute lockdown unit

What happens when you post a real Monet and say it’s AI? The coolest art social experiment I’ve seen in a while. Thank you @SHL0MS

Long after I’m gone… remember, people — you can’t get in a fight with a robot ump.

This is American exceptionalism.
