  • Same thought came to mind two days ago. In retrospect, that Twitter purchase appears so excellent as to make the attempted backtracking look contrived and intentional.

    But there are other possible explanations. Maybe he jumped the gun before his planning partners had agreed to.

    And I'm reminded there doesn't need to be any conspiracy here because I can't think of what would have been different if the purchase were announced as a one intended to influence politics.

  • Prob something like simplehuman.com/collections/dual-compartment-can

    Need disposable income & to really not be down for plastic trashcans, would be a silly purchase for many but… have used some in a commercial building and they def do garbage good.

    What is it about products when you use them and immediately fall in love with their features (the kind where you wonder why they aren’t ubiquitous)? — And the insignificance of the product itself is no matter. Delight hits its height all the same.

  • I suppose we've got to keep at it until we're at a point where doing something is better than doing nothing. Where, of course, doing nothing is somewhat of an acknowledgement of the fact it's hard to do something right enough to be able to apply it to all posts and all articles and all that.

    An analogy comes to mind: it’s like the difference between telling hikers they’re at their own risk and advising them to bring water, good shoes, and a fully charged battery, and they'll be fine. If you can't account for everything, there are arguments to be made with trying to shift responsibility back to people with either more general or more specific warnings.

  • Reminds me I just learned about this: overpass-turbo.eu

    GeoGuessrs use it to run queries on OpenStreetMap (even if a chatbot has to write those queries first).

    Worked for something like “show me all houses with the house number 529 in this ZIP Code“. Oh probably saw that here (video)
