Alright, you knew this was coming. I knew this was coming. Even the LLMs
probably knew this was coming, and they’re idiots. It took a bit longer than I’d
hoped, but I’m finally ready. So buckle up. It’s time to shit on new technology.
(TECHNICAL) PROBLEMS
Now, full disclosure, my examples here wi...

I complained about what a pain my last post was to write because AI kept moving
too quickly.
So naturally I decided to write about large language models (LLMs).
You’ve probably heard of them, but you might not know it.

Well, I’m a little late to the party, but I’m finally getting around to writing
about AI art. This post has been…a while in the making. Frankly, I’ve had
trouble keeping up with all the research I’ve needed to do on it, since everyone
keeps saying new stuff about it.

I’ve seen a lot (-ish) of talk about Mastodon on the Internet lately, thanks to

For some reason, people have been talking about the Constitution a lot lately.
But when you get down to it, what do you really know about the Constitution?

“current,” because it served as a sort of do-over on ...

Who loves FREE books? Answer: everyone. Except losers.
But for all the non-losers out there, you can head over to Vampires and Robots
this weekend to pick up any number of free books…or at least, any number lower
than about 44…including my books.
But there’s a catch! The free books only last for t...

Do you enjoy books, but suck at finding them?
Are you a fan of novels like mine, but recently noticed that I only have two of
them?
Well, that’s too bad, but at least I can help you find something else to keep

Happy Memorial Day!
Somber, Reflective Memorial Day!
Merry Memorial Day?
Memorial Day! [1]
Okay, by now you know the drill.
What is this holiday? Where did it come from? Where will it go? Why do I have
“Cotton Eye Joe” stuck in my head?
WHAT IS IT?
To begin with, Memorial Day is a federal ...

Gilbert Gottfried died this month. I’ve never been the type of person to dwell
on celebrity deaths–sure, it’s sad, but it’s still the death of someone I don’t

A few weeks ago now–February 24th, to be specific–Russia invaded Ukraine.
Naturally, if you have a television or a computer–and under the circumstances, I
suspect you have at least one of those–you’ve probably figured that out at this
point, but if not (or if you just want a bit more context), this...
