AI demonstrates the sunk-cost fallacy perfectly: Just one more "this doesn't work!" prompt, you think, and it'll fix it!! But often it won't, and now you've wasted 30 minutes begging that you could have spent learning how to actually fucking do it yourself.

I remember going from MySpace to Facebook to Twitter to App.net to Twitter and now Mastodon. Time is a sonofabitch
I love my current job a lot. Great company and good culture but 3 months severance is 3 months off.
I’d have to love a job quite a bit to stay after someone offering me 3 months severance. Tell me the option are 3 months severance or toxic hells cape of no work life balance and unreasonable expectations to justify a $44B impulse buy and I’d take the severance without blinking.
On the off chance you’re interested in following me outside of Twitter you can find me on Mastodon at appdot.net/@joshpennington and I try to keep an updated list of places to find me online on my website joshpennington.dev
I just started play Outer Wilds for the first time after hearing @jph_anderson recommend it in one of his videos. I am still very early on in my play through, but I feel like I am experiencing a masterpiece.

Would someone from Apple please buy a Surface Pro and then copy it please? I can’t do my kind of work on an iPad but I love the tablet form factor.
