Many are “coffee badging,” or swiping their ID badges at the office to record their arrival, staying 30 minutes or so ‒ long enough to greet colleagues and grab a cup of coffee – and then heading back home.

My arm is asleep but I don’t want to disturb her.

I mean, it’s their names.

In 1869, Goldman Sachs was founded by Marcus Goldman in New York City in a one-room basement office next to a coal chute. In 1882, Goldman’s son-in-law Samuel Sachs joined the firm.

Although somewhat unrelated, I thought this excerpt from the article was interesting and sad.

Asked in an interview if he regrets Balatro’s success, he replied: "Honestly, yeah. Don’t get me wrong - this has changed my life in a lot of amazing ways. I’m so grateful. But I do miss that time before. It was just a hobby that recharged my batteries. Sometimes I think, ‘Maybe I would’ve been happier if I had never released this game to the public.’

I like to joke that the world actually did end in 2012 and now we’re in a weird purgatory type thing.

I’ve definitely dreamed or seated on project ideas off and on for years. I also like to think about pared down versions that might serve as a proof of concept that would be easier to execute. Sometimes I actually even build a thing.

You really should report this kind of thing. Don’t call the cops, they don’t even kind of care.

We’re on a tiny social network that is trying to gain users. Engagement matters and my response was the only one at the time I posted. I did investigate but I don’t have time to get to a definitive answer which is why I put a disclaimer on it.

It’s fine if you hate AI, it’s fine if you hate my comments. You’re welcome to downvote to oblivion or block me. I was trying to add something to the conversation that didn’t exist. I’m sorry that’s infuriated so many people.

The worst part, my AI answer is probably right.

Why post something mean that doesn’t add to the conversation? I tried to post what I believed what the right answer to the question being asked. You’re mad about where that answer came from.

Check my comment history and you tell me if I’m “looking for negative attention” or if perhaps I was trying to contribute to the community as a whole with what I believed was the right answer.

Say what you’re gonna say. I have no desire for negative attention on the platform. I genuinely don’t know why you even started in on me. Seems like you’re just unhappy or a generally rude individual. Block me if you don’t want to hear what I have to say.

Cool story. I’m gonna keep doing what I please. But thanks for this comment.

ChatGPT says thanks too. :)

ChatGPT says:

It appears to be a photo taken in Chicago, Illinois. The distinctive skyline, including the Willis (Sears) Tower and the city’s recognizable downtown profile, suggests the picture was snapped along a roadway near the city’s lakefront. The curvature of the road and proximity to Lake Michigan’s shoreline strongly hints that this was taken along (or above) DuSable Lake Shore Drive, facing towards the Loop area and Chicago’s iconic skyline.

But I have zero personal information regarding it.

I like the trees in the background.

I’m really sick of how pervasive it is everywhere now. You can’t sell a product or provide a service nowadays without advertising some AI aspect. I wish that would go away.

I actually pay for a chatGPT premium account because personally I find a lot of value in it. I use it to help with writing, picture analyzing (what species of … is this), and a lot more. I just wish I could decide when I want AI involved and when I don’t.

ChatGPT says yes.

It’s wild to me that somehow the elite controllers are worst than their cheaper brothers. I’ve owned both series. Both sucked hard.

Gotta cough to get off 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don’t know how it works under the hood, but from a user perspective it behaves like it’s in BFU. Biometrics disabled, phone code required.

Long press of power and volume up for a few seconds puts you into BFU.

Gave it a shot this weekend after seeing a piece about it on Friday. Generally I thought it was OK. The match making kind of sucks and it took me a number of “quick play” attempts until I was actually able to play.

Gameplay was fun, if not a bit frustrating. I got completely smoked by a couple of people and it felt like they had deep knowledge of the maps which was tough to counter.

All in all, for the price, it’s worth a pickup.

I saw someone make these on YouTube shorts the other day, what a cute and clever idea and they came out great!
