  @spacelogic@kind.social What sites do you use to look for jobs? I'm in a similar situation, having been looking for work for 5 years. I've pretty much given up on linkedin, indeed and others. Any recommendations?

  I just had the best conversation with my boss about how to pitch a potential client on our services. He realized he'd forgotten to include any pitch about AI, so I told him to use the words "tokens" and "context window" in the pitch. I signed off of the call with "Remember, keep it brazen!"

  Parents! Are your kids getting ready for high school? They probably have been missing out on a lot of what they need to prepare them for the next level of learning. Here's a quick summer reading list to help them get up to speed: 1) Poetics (especially the fragments of Comedy that are in the original Greek) 2) Walden 3) The monkey wrench gang 4) The Art of Shen Ku: the First Intergalactic art form of the entire universe 5) The complete upmanship 6) The right way to do wrong 7) How to...

  If you listen to 5-4 podcast, or read anything about the supreme court, you know that Roberts' entire career has been about getting rid of the voting rights act. Now he's done it, after 40+ years of making it obvious he wanted to.
