The dichotomy of print versus the web:
Kötturinn og ég, ný íslensk myndasaga:
Þá er ég orðinn útgefandi 🙂 „Kötturinn og ég, ný íslensk myndasaga“ Fyrstu viðtökur hafa verið mjög jákvæðar: „Afar skemmtileg bók, húmorísk og hlýleg, fyrir alla sem eiga kött, hafa átt kött eða langar að eiga kött.“ — Gyrðir Elíasson
“LLMs aren’t going away” statements are wishes, not predictions, that they’re trying to make happen. Treat them as advocacy for a specific future, not observations of inevitability
“Skilaboð ESB stærri en ákvörðunin sjálf - RÚV.is” This, in Icelandic, is an interview with an expert in European law saying that the message the EU seems to be sending by tariffing Iceland and Norway is that the EEA countries are not full members of the single market
Me, an unrepentant nerd: “I wonder if I can automate the distribution documentation and management for the book using a flat CSV file generated by OnlyOffice to manage the data and Typst to generate receipts and invoices. That sounds like fun” And, yeah, it kinda is 😄
“Vibe nuclear — let’s use AI shortcuts on reactor safety! – Pivot to AI” Big tech is working hard to address the world's criminally low background radiation levels.
“The infrastructure of the internet is incredibly resilient” and “most websites and apps today have flaws that make them fragile and unreliable” are both true. That would be a major opportunity if we were living with rational markets but we don’t, so half the internet takes regular “rest” breaks
