There are *many* problems with #AI. The biggest one, the one that subsumes the rest, is that it's *expensive*

And it's not even *good* at anything useful.

They call it "hallucination" but it's really sparkling #Fail. Any human doing a job with that level of fail would have been fired long ago.

Swarm season! 💛 My favorite time of the year.

First of 2025, a beautiful 10-20,000 honeybee swarm cluster on my friend’s cherry tree.

I rigged this slick bucket on a swiveling extending pole a year ago which works so well, and is an upgrade to previous season’s bucket, duct tape on bamboo pole.

But, major equipment #fail yesterday. After swarm of honeybees was in bucket, bucket disengaged from pole. Result? A cascading waterfall of bees. 🙈

Plan B. Up close and personal via ladder with bucket in hands. Went up three times to get all of them!

Such a great day. First time I was close enough to my wee apiary that I could walk the box o’ #bees there (verses driving them).

Me: Oh hey, a new restaurant! "Peruvian fusion" in a town that isn't known for diverse food options!

Also me: Jesus fuck, this web site is terrible. How can they have a bunch of thumbnail images of their menu without any way to view the menu at a full READABLE size??

...

Me: Hey, they have an email link so I can provide friendly and useful feedback!

Also me: It's not a link. It's text. IT'S TEXT THAT THEY HAVE MADE NON-SELECTABLE SO I CANNOT COPY IT!!!!

How can a one-page web site have so many failures? FFS.

One reason that the #planningApplication system is broken is that developers are allowed to get away with submitting forms full of nonsense like this. How exactly is 21m² of building going to be demolished when the current internal floorspace is zero? #fail

Jetzt werde ich doch glatt zu einem firmeninternen Webinar eingeladen, bei dem ich mir sagen lassen soll, wie ich #LinkedIn zu meinem "Vorteil" nutzen kann. Ich mein, was soll der Sch***?! Ich nutze nicht einmal LinkedIn und zum anderen sollte sich das Unternehmen auf wirklich wichtige Dinge konzentrieren und nicht auf so einen Schrott. 🤦‍♂️
Also manchmal frage ich mich ja wirklich....
