🦧 Simon Gray The tributes for Drew Struzan remind me of learning air brush in high school art, where a discussion was had that new tech air brush was considered a type of cheating by traditional artists.
Seth What I haven't succeeded in is the actual making money part.
🦧 Simon Gray When discussing AI it's important to define terminology first. AI is also an acronym used for Artificial Insemination. & There's some crazy claims going on about it's potential without accurate terms.
🐵 George and now I feel weird about anticipating the burst of AI bubble.
🏒 Lucian Marin ciproispoison.com - this is what I have and I'm getting worse after 2.5 years. This "disease" is eating my cartilage in knees and shoulders. I can't rotate fully the right shoulder like I used to. :(
🏒 Lucian Marin After Alien Earth, I wish for a Terminator TV series. Bring back my childhood memories.
😀 Tom They did make a TV series: The Sarah Conner Chronicles
👨🏻‍💻 Moroni Have you tried [Jujutsu](https://github.com/martinvonz/jj)? It's a Git-compatible version control system.
LatinCharacters interesting. how is it going? what is the motivation and goals?
👽 Paul Webb I've only mocked up the repo page but I've forked isomorphic-git so it's coming along nicely. The motivation has been off and on for years but the recent GitHub news (becoming part of Microsoft) encouraged me to try again. The goal is to have an identity (unlike the current code forges who aren't SourceHut) and be useable to me in the short term.
👨🏻‍💻 Moroni Why do we need to clean our homes regularly? Where is the technology that will do this for us?

Seth August 16, start the engine.
🏒 Lucian Marin It's crazy how much big pharma is fighting berberine for weight loss and metabolic health. They lose billions of dollars because people want to be healthy after taking big pharma meds. Deleted posts on Reddit, nothing to be found on YouTube, banned search and hashtags on TikTok, articles from big US universities telling us is unsafe. I also found Rhodiola for reducing visceral fat and suppressing appetite. So, I'm gonna take them both and report back.
🐵 George boy do you have to watch Common Side Effects.
😀 Tom How is it going? (How is it going with these meds, and how is life going in general?)
☄️ Tacio If fragile masculinity is a thing, so is fragile adulthood. People should stop shaming other adults for, say, liking cartoons.
🎤 alexkaufmanlive I know with AI it's silly to build a website by hand like choosing not to use a loom. But you can see mine at alexkaufman.live. (Artisanal jinja templates, hand coded flask blueprints)
🍺 Paul I guess it's that time of the season again where I come up with silly projects for myself while looking for a new job.
hautacam I've started emulator development. Wrote a CHIP-8 emulator in JavaScript (or rather an interpreter) and will tackle an Intel 8080 emulator in C next.
🤷 Tom Hyndman We need some permalink solution, probably clicking the timestamps and clicking the parent post preview should take you to permalinks, there is plenty of prior art, whatener HN amd Twitter do is worth looking at
Alessandro What books are you reading currently?
hautacam Tolstoy's "What Is Art?".
🤔 John catching up on discworld with a linear read, just starting guards guards again. adam savage every tool's a hammer. in my fathers court about a rabbinical community "judge". asterix and obelix with my kids.
