Betteridge's Law is dead, long live Betteridge's Law

The word 'Infotainment' makes me want to barf.

There beneath the blue suburban skies...

It's a planeatarium

I enjoyed that. I have no mug shots (yet) and I suppose that reduces the odds that anyone might write about me in 100 years.

I also did one of the hikes to the CO river in the 90s with 3 friends when we were in college. We got off to a late start so jogged down a good deal of the way (dumb). We carried a 1 gallon water jug each (not even close to enough). We had no extra clothing (dumb). Two of us (me being one) made it out that day. The other two didn't. A group of smart hikers with water filters and iodine tablets found them belly up on the path in the direct sunlight. I'm certain they would have died if the hikers didn't give them tablets, water and emergency blankets. Man we were dumb.

Isn't that what humans do too? We mimic noises we've heard before and we associate meaning to the noises. Parrots can do that. Our quaker parrot would bite you, then say 'not supposed to bite'. He clearly associated some kind of meaning to that phrase.

Or Pueblo, Salida and Buena Vista CO

I canceled my espn/disney+ account. I hope lots of people are doing that too.

Haha, fine! I messed it up 2x.

Dammit, I messed it all up. I meant Harry Mudd from Star Trek, as most correctly guessed.

I got all excited until I realized Harvey Mudd isn't Henry Mudd. This project would have had a lot more cred, in my book, if it were the latter.

> 81% of developers agreed that AI increases their productivity

I've had a few AI generated PRs come my way and the code-review process is, shall we say, not fun. It takes me a lot more time to review these PRs, there is way more back-and-forth between me and the 'developer', and it takes much more time to get the PR merged. That's not saying anything about the increased difficulty in modifying this code in the future.

I have a feeling these claims of being more productive don't account for the entire development cycle.
