If AI does turn the internet into a wasteland no one responsibly wants to connect to, that might qualify as a new dark age.

My moat for a verse.

TIRED: Voter apathy.

WIRED: Voter anxiety.

LINKEDIN PEOPLE: It'd be nice if you told me why I suck.

ME: Would it?

I read Cory Doctorow’s copyright thread and it’s got some great points, but I find myself thinking, “Gosh, wouldn’t that be nice if copyright remained relevant?” And honestly in the battle between AI and copyright, I expected AI to lose just due to the enormity of entrenched copyright interests (think Disney), but copyright lost that fight. Copyright and licenses in software development were once paramount but now it’s choose your own license via LLM.

I had some leftover Salmon from DIY sushi that I didn't know what to do with and didn't want to do rice and wrappers and the whole thing, so I just made it into sashimi with some sauce, and holy heck that's great!

Dang. Pokémon Pinball machine at Costco for $5k. It retails for $6.2k so it's a deal! My wife is not convinced but I think I could win over my four year old.

ME, muttering to myself about former love languages: The string is already in the `.rodata`; must you heap allocate it too?!

ME, holding a cat stuffie: Is it ok if I put Soup in your bed? Is it ok if I throw him?

10 YEAR OLD: Yeah. It’s a they by the way.

ME, tosses; stifles smile: Ok. Thank you.

Another case I like to use `Cow` is for catch all error messages. Because if you don't have to format the string, the string is already in memory; just use it. But when you do need to add more information, you can.

This is not to say that catch all errors are good. They aren't. Use `thiserror` and don't reify strings at all. #rustlang
