Tending and caring for an indie web in the midst of generative AI content farms
Was highly amused at the Product-Engineering quartet alignment meeting the duelling declarations, spoken within minutes of each other, that we need an AI feature to differentiate is from the competition and we also need an AI feature because we’re losing sales as the competitors are all promising one too.
Apple Guy Gruber (I don’t know why I bothered, it’s not like he could have a vanity search going anyway) approving quotes:

Look. I’m never going not going to see the worst on anything Peter Dutton says. He’s an amoral monster that would happily see people suffer for a win for his party. But honestly, doing anything but unreservedly apologising for #robodebt, trying to find a way to attack the ALP? Just dumb. The LNP openly broke the law to punish a class of people they hold in contempt, an action that resulted in foreseeable loss of life. There is no way for the LNP to find honour in this.

Checking out my taxes because 🤘. ATO says I can't claim coffee, tea, or milk as a work from home expense. Doesn't say anything about the hard liquor.
Saving this so it will get archived for me as a PDF because Twitter is shitting the bed
