“Fuck y’all, I quit. Good luck with the crisis.”

I have a friend who was a project manager. He took the time to learn every platform used by his team, but held no pretenses that he could actually develop anything without the team. His main goal was filter all the horseshit from the stakeholders and higher-ups so that they wouldn’t overwhelm the team with minutia. By learning the platforms and observing the team developing, he could make accurate predictions on timeliness based on whatever arbitrary feature was being requested and he’d always answer “let me ask my team” before discussing deliverables if he wasn’t sure.

The number of times that he explained in meetings that’s the team’s timeline didn’t change, but that the stakeholders’ expectations did and that introduced a new additional timeline was incredible. It’s unsurprising that he only lasted a year or two before his bosses started pushing for a promotion. Seeing him work made mean bit jealous that I couldn’t be on his team, but we work at different companies and I don’t want to join the private sector if I can be of benefit to public education.

How the fuck did my Fedora just bluescreen?? Crowdstrike!

Oh God, don’t watch the etc porn! You’ll never be able to unsee it…

Yeah, that’s more appropriate for a WHEN clause or possibly even a WHOM

Marty! It’s your children! The little bastards won’t stop playing Ska-booby toilets!

Consider that the energy output of a 12-gauge shotgun is approximately 4500 Newton-meters and, from personal experience, can rotate a first-gen iPad at an extrapolated 240 rpm (extrapolated as this proved difficult to sustain). That gives us an equivalent of 113 kW! A modern ipad would only need about 13 kW to charge in one second.

So, one shotgun shell could easily charge yours and 7 of your friends ipads instantaneously, although the results are difficult to appreciate.

“Ugh, now they’re both crying…” Covers microphone “Someone hit somebody! God, in my 13 years of UFC announcing, I’ve never been more embarrassed…”

How’s my mom gonna have time for that when she’s busy with every male COD player ever?

You might be in a better position than you realize! I see two great options for you:

Option 1.

Here’s a new battery for your reader, it’s about $13.

Here’s a battery replacement video. It’s amazingly simple! I forgot what wonderful times the aughts were for diy repair.

Option 2

If you’re feeling a little more carefree and like saying “damn the aesthetics!” Especially when you mention keeping readers out of landfills:

Buy a broken eReader off of eBay that still turns on and scavenge the battery. Most of them seem to use the same voltage. If the battery you source doesn’t fit, make a notch in the side of your reader and tape the new battery to the back or whatever. Donate the remainder to your local Makerspace.

If you end up enjoying your little rebellious repairs, buy bulk non-functioning eReaders and try using them to repair each other. Donate the functioning ones to your local library and the non-functioning parts to your local Makerspace.

This isn’t a summary, I literally asked “what kind of bubble is AI?”

I didn’t wanna read the article nor the opinions in it, so I asked ChatGPT.

AI can be seen as a bubble in the sense that there’s a lot of hype and excitement surrounding it, often leading to inflated expectations. However, there’s also substantial substance and potential for real impact. It’s important to navigate through the hype to understand both its capabilities and limitations.
