Today could be one of those boring ol' happy days I might one day randomly reminisce about in the future.

  • Friend, you're 20. The concept of "potential" being "wasted" at this point in your life is non existent. You're still right at the start of the journey. Don't dwell on what you think you might have missed yesterday. Make a plan for tomorrow.

    • Is there anything actually useful or novel about "AI"?

  • My concern is that it feels like using Google to confirm the truth of what ChatGPT tells you is becoming less and less reliable, as so many of the pages indexed by Google are themselves created by similar models. But I suppose as long as your search took you to a site where you could actually buy the thing, that's okay.

    Or at least, it is until fake shopping sites start inventing products based on ChatGPT output.

    • Why the fuck do cars still have analog speedometers? Surely digital ones would be more accurate and much easier to read without looking away from the road for too long.

  • Car manufacturers won't spend extra on a fancy feature unless they can't sell without it. That's why most cars have such nasty low-res screens for the entertainment system, when a nice high res one (like the one you have in your phone) would only cost a few quid more.

    • Britpop: What prompted the end of the genre that gave us Blur and Pulp? (BBC News)

  • They got labelled with it, yes. Back then you didn't need a lot of "pop" in your sound to get categorised as Britpop. Anything rocky, as long as it wasn't full-on undisputable heavy metal or punk rock, got lumped in too.

    At the time, it was a good label to have. That term had a lot of cachet.
