- Comment on Salesforce regrets firing 4000 experienced staff and replacing them with AI 1 day ago:
Alternatively, Salesforce could invest in a user experience that isn’t a confusing PoS that requires 9000 customer service agents to help people get through it. Just say’n.

That’s when you tell the girlfriend that he faked an STI test and gave you something incurable.
At the very least that will force them to have couples STI testing done, and she’ll ask for verification from the doctor directly. So that’ll add a some tension in their lives for a few days / weeks.

Might want to also try powers, cooking the shit out of the alliums, or cooking with the bulbs then removing the bulbs before serving. Get the flavor without the high FODMAP fructans.
I’m also trying to see what I can do to build back the gut bacteria which would normally process that stuff correctly. Probiotics + slowly reintroducing the alliums over a long period of time.

Yeah, I’ve been experimenting with that as a solution. I can also mildly tolerate them if they’re cooked high hell or used as a powder. The more raw it is, the harder it is to digest.
If I can dial the fructans down, I do a lot better.

Don’t get me wrong, I love onions as an adult. That said, I had a procedure a few years that fucked my ability to digest allium.
I’m trying to eat fist fulls of probiotics to see if I can get back in the game.
- Comment on Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason 1 week ago:
I avoided onions and peppers when I was younger because I was a picky ass eater.
Now I avoid onions because I realized I can’t properly digest them and the make my tummy sad.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 1 week ago:
What devices have you tried it with?
I’ve been very happy with Samsung’s implementation paired with Apple and Microsoft devices.
That said, I haven’t see how things play out with other TV brand and input devices from Sony, Roku, etc. I only know that my setup has been pretty damn bulletproof.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 1 week ago:
My point about CEC is that it doesn’t matter what silly crap they install on the TV. You won’t see the unremovable apps and ads if CEC will bypass that junk entirely.
A good CEC setup will kind of feel like your TV is a dumb monitor and there is a KVM that switches all the auto and video when you pick up a game controller or streaming box remote.
I never see my TV’s software and I never touch my TV’s remote.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 1 week ago:
When you get a new TV, make sure it supports CEC so you can bypass all this bullshit.
CEC allows your input devices to change inputs, control power, control volume, etc.
My current setup is a Samsung QLED, Xbox, and Apple TV. All support CEC and I never touch the Samsung remote and have no idea what’s in the Samsung menus anymore.
If I turn on the streaming box, the tv turns on, the input changes, and all I see is the streaming box UI. Same for the game console. CEC is fucking incredible and an underrated thing that doesn’t get the flowers it deserves. It just works.

The former icon designer in me twitches when I see Linux distros that have Recycle Bin icon labeled as “Trash.”

I want a tiny bottle of green bean casserole extract, so I can make cookies that taste like green bean casserole.

Bad research is often what you get from these consultants. Tale as old as time. It’s been this way for decades.
- Comment on in case you wanted a good news, Reddit stock is down 1.99% over the past 3 month 4 weeks ago:
Reddit isn’t alone. Any company that gets a lot of traffic from Google is feeling the impact.
Reddit YoY profit is quite strong, but daily active users is softer than expected. A lot of people suspect that they, like many other companies that depend on SEO for a chunk of users, are being impacted by LLMs.
Many questions that would normally get answered in Reddit start and end in GPT or Gemini / AI overview.

- Comment on Apple Reportedly Moving Ahead With Ads in Maps App 2 months ago:
Once you create a monetization team that puts ads in shit, they’re going to want to keep putting more ads in stuff. They’re all judged on how much better they do year over year.
Apple should’ve never created a team that sold ads on their platforms.
- Comment on Another WSJ banger about why the poors aren't doing more 2 months ago:
A chunk of people still use it to provide a counter narrative to the right wing propagandists. Kind of like when Buttigieg or Newsom go on Fox News.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
IMHO, Apple just jumped onto a dumb dribbble trend that has been happening for a few years. Remove toolbars and put stuff in a small floating pane.
Seeing it in iOS will encourage more people to do this, but it’s not a trend Apple started. Their design team doesn’t have very many good original thoughts these days.

Ahh yes. The “put everything in a little pill” design trend.
