Airline rant: second time this has happened to me in a month. Estimated boarding time on app says 445. I show up at 449.
Lady: oh you're on this flight? We were about to close the door
Me: what? Boarding says 445.
Lady: it's 449
Me: you boarded the whole flight in 4 minutes?
Folks, I have spent literally the entire day trying to get someone at AOL to unlock my email. For the last eight hours, I have been told that the issue has been escalated to supervisors who would contact me. I haven't heard a thing.
You would think that, since I'm one of the last human beings on the face of the Earth still using AOL, they would take care of this. You'd be wrong.
So, once this gets resolved, hopefully before the next presidential election, I'm dropping them. (I kept them this long out of convenience, but now I have no reason to keep them.)
I'll see you on the radio at 6 p.m., at which time I will address this further.
Petit partage de projet, car c’est sûrement le truc le plus pratique que j’ai fait ce mois-ci avec l'IA.
J’ai voulu acheter un plus gros NAS pour faire du stockage froid, mais vu les prix des disques durs actuellement, j’ai voulu trouver une autre approche.
J’ai donc pris un bucket R2 sur @Cloudflare, que j’ai demandé à Claude Code et GPT-6 de configurer, et je leur ai demandé de me créer une interface façon Google Drive.
Et donc là, je me retrouve avec mon propre Drive personnel, où je peux mettre tout ce que je veux et le configurer comme je veux, et qui me coûte environ 20 €/mois.
Et c’est bien pratique !!!!
It is very hard to support graduate student unions. You are already in an incredibly privileged position, often making $60+/hr, & getting paid for 20hrs/ week while often only working 2-3 to prep a lecture, and then maybe an 8 hour day of grading 2 or 3 times a sem for exams
