Not long ago at #GLMusicDiscovery I shared modular track, but for uninitiated, that might have painted modular as sad genre. Federico Chiesa - Oora is a counter balance to that. Dynamic, evolving with a heartbeat to keep that leg moving. Modular wonder.
US re-started oil SPR draws in April. Been going ever since. Looking at the chart, April starts, coincides w/ OPEC+ "don't play with us, shorts" note.
Ongoing market distortion.
UK has it sticky and not at the level you'd be happy.
Been talking with ChatGPT about logging/escaping spaces in bash. Nowhere in conversation did I paste or reference today's date, however in answer, example log message contained today's date.
Is OpenAI moving towards real-time data ingestion?
When ChatGPT was released I said:

Lately I'm getting vibes of "not worth it" from Biden admin.
Still on "status quo" note though.
Overheard in radio:
Lithuanian polls show 1/3 Ukrainian refugees are planning to stay vs 1/6 a year ago.
Ukraine migrants contributed 1% to Lithuanian GDP in 2022.
Retail participation in market is close to x2 since Covid.
Can't find now, but saw $HOOD Transcript recently, saying they see trading volumes bouncing back.
George Orosz:
"Also: as a Google Domains customer, why am hearing about this news from Squarespace’s press release?
Google (my provider, and where I’m a customer) has not told me this is happening.
I assume same with the other 10M impacted domains’ owners."
Spoiled ad cash cow with 226M compensated CEO and zero respect for developers.

How many years have Tesla been taking money for F(for full)SD? And never have I seen a robotaxi.

#GLMusicDiscovery Presenting to you: Peter Frampton - Do You Feel Like We Do. It's 14 mins for a reason. Don't dismiss it in first four.

Thoughts on $MSFT + $NVDA. Speculation on secretive deal.
>1 yr my primary OS been Ubuntu.
Half of my inactivity here is explained by digging deeper into this OS and tooling.
Thinking of adoption.. Parents use what their teenagers install. All productivity tools are there..

But teenagers won't give in bc of gaming, because Nvidia won't properly opensource the drivers
Google pays to be iphone's default s.engine
Is Microsoft blocking gaming on FOSS?

US Military-industrial complex gets lots of heat. I gotta admin, I have never weighted the alternative.
If you don't exert power, somebody will.
When Auga did SPO in 2018, their main thesis has GCP. They are now selling everything but the brand to Linas Agro Group.
Did not see this coming. I put more trust in LNA1L making those soups churn cash. Coupled w/ KG CPG products, there are a lot of synergies to cross-sell.
2022 Nov headline:

Humanity lost so much efficiency be deciding decades ago to go along the x86 path...
Watched WWDC. Now that regulators are stepping on services segment, presenters were very mindful to accentuate (for investors) AR glasses are a new platform.
I will never own an Apple product, but gotta admit, company can build consumer products.
When media throws around million bbl/d, I don't yet have a mental frame of reference. Saving this one at least for Saudi Arabia oil output.
