Got an AI talk idea for next year

My 2024 pledge to not buy any stickers just got wrecked by these and I'm not even mad about it

@npub198t…hasj @npub1frw…rgac Oh, no pressure but if you two don't already know each other you might get on so well.
You're both some of the smartest people I know and have really insightful thoughts about overlapping topics.

@npub19lt…qfjk did you explain it needs to be USB-C?

Absolutely wild how many companies are adopting AI notetaking apps for meetings.
Y'all'er just chill sending your planning, product direction and revenue details to some random third party in exchange for them doing the low value task of halfassing note taking for you?

Just described Slack to a 20something as "Discord but for old people" and wanted to share this w y'all so that I wasn't the only person I hurt with these words.

Do folks already know about the Kentucky Meat Shower?
Meat(?) fell from the sky in 1876 and:
- multiple people ate some
- a doctor claimed it was definitely horse or human baby
- we don't know what the deal is w it

Hot language take:
More languages need sentence modifiers like ね (ja), kan (id) and innit (en-GB) for when you're 99% sure of something but want the listener to be able to confirm or refute the information.
Ex.
今日寒いね?
Hari ini dingin, kan?
Cold today, innit?
Are there other languages that do this that I can marvel at?

Weird request: Does anyone know where I can find Indonesian language B movies made until 1998 or so?
So happy to pay for them, but want to further indulge in my most recent overly-specific hyperfocus before it fades.

I don't talk much about how I grew up, but I've just purchased my first home, which I never could have imagined being possible.
It's just a little flat, but this feels so big and so safe and so important.

Wild that the metaverse was such a full-on useless idea that Crypto grifters didn't even sniff at it before hopping to GenAI nonsense.

Absolutely wild that DuckDuckGo is now the best search experience by miles, both through their own hard work and Google just own-goaling their search experience into uselessness.

Tech folks into voice technologies, linguistics researchers and anyone else excited about open source speech data:
Common Voice's 18.0 dataset is now live offering 32k hours of CC0 speech data in 128 languages.

Accidentally classically conditioned my cats to rush at me for 5 min of petting when my pomodoro timer goes off.

love logging onto platforms the day after Eurovision to try and make sense of what happened like an archeologist with a very specific remit
