I was about to make PB&J sandwiches for the kids but then I had to clean up the super glue I spilled on my office floor and this is the most #ADHD sentence ever. @ConnorDeWolfe_ @iSocialFanz @HowtoADHD

We did it. We have a tentative deal.

Over the coming days, we'll discuss and vote on it, together, as a democratic union. But today, I want to thank every single WGA member, and every fellow worker who stood with us in solidarity. You made this possible. Thank you. #WGAStrong

Wouldn’t it be terrible if your name actually was “Potential Spam”?

Honestly, I’m going to miss it. The reinvented #twitter #bird logo was deliberate, forward, and soaring.

Did apple just lowkey launch a v1 brain-machine-interface into the Vision Pro?

One of their ex designers just tweeted this:

“One of the coolest results involved predicting a user was going to click on something before they actually did. That was a ton of work and something I’m proud of. Your pupil reacts before you click in part because you expect something will happen after you click. So you can create biofeedback with a user's brain by monitoring their eye behavior, and redesigning the UI in real time to create more of this anticipatory pupil response. It’s a crude brain computer interface via the eyes, but very cool”

@DallasAdGrad I’m just glad your wizard staff breaking didn’t like open a portal to an eldritch horror or something. Coulda been bad.

[Eric Swayne (he/him) @eswayne]

@albiceleste37 Yes, kind of? It’s also the prototypical “make money while you sleep” business with (relatively) low investment and low maintenance costs. It’s like a Minecraft red stone kelp farm - it’s easy once it’s set up, but does the world need that much kelp??

Denton has a car wash being built across the street from another car wash being built down the street from a car wash. Please, someone explain to me this car wash inception.

[Eric Swayne (he/him) @eswayne]

@DallasAdGrad Look, all I’m saying is that apparently there is SO MUCH demand for washing of cars that we believe TWO MORE can exist near one already serving the freshmen. This feels like people opening a Subway anywhere they dern well please just because it’s cheap to do so.

Twitter revealed its algorithm to the world.

But what does it mean for you?

I spent the evening analyzing it.

@DallasAdGrad @thepuffness I would like to not be held accountable for anything said by twenty-year-old me pretty much ever.

[Eric Swayne (he/him) @eswayne]

@DallasAdGrad @thepuffness OMG I LOVE IT and I wish I could have seen this in person

Tax Heaven 3000 is a visual novel that, while operating like a dating sim, actually guides you through doing your taxes. You'll have to give them personal information, including your SSN, but love is all about trust, right?

Midjourney is getting crazy powerful—none of these are real photos, and none of the people in them exist.

The key thing is not that you are abandoning your principles. It is the order in which you call your principles into your reasoning process. https://t.co/MjoRgRDQEd via @americamag
