Is there a commonly used term yet for when one AI agent “speaks” to another AI agent doing work for a IRL human without any human intervention?
What an insane story. Who in their right mind would’ve actually thought this would work?

My kids have been watching the original Full House episodes. They’re now respndingsaying things like “How Rude!” and “Cut…It….Out” and honestly, I’m into it.
Two weeks of crazy travel behind me - back into it this week!
I’m angry by how much I know this is true
The return line for Amazon at Kohl’s is 5x longer than their store checkout. Weird move to enable and hasten your company’s own insignificance. Seems like an unsustainable business model.
Texas!
Showing my kids some Schoolhouse Rock in advance of a trip to Boston. I’m happy to report I still know the Preamble to the Constitution by heart…..which I learned from Schoolhouse Rock.

When the day comes for @TheDailyShow to go off the air (or maybe even now) they should upload their petabytes of tv and make it free to use for fair-use and reporting. Can you imagine how much it would enable the next generation of reporters, digital archivists, documentarians, satirists, etc?

Tuesday, June 3, 2025
During the worst of COVID, I spent time getting random certifications in an effort to kill time by learning new skills. Being in Houston shortly after Hurricane Harvey, I decided to get a ham radio license in case I ever need to connect with someone and the phone networks go down - as they seem to be doing a lot lately. It’s not something I do often but every once in a while I’ll check on the local repeaters.
This is the first character study doc that I’m legitimately worried I’m not mentally prepared to watch. Pee-wee was such a big part of my childhood, as he was for a lot of weird kids. Not sure I can handle seeing him as a tortured artist who was pushed back into the closet.
God, I love Nathan Fielder.

A six episode order isn’t screaming confidence in the new version
I’m concerned about my mental health based solely on the amount of Tony Robbins web ads target me each day.
