VC's HATE this one weird growth hack: DECLARE @i INT = 1 WHILE @i <= 18000000 BEGIN INSERT INTO Users (username, password) VALUES ('User' + CONVERT(VARCHAR, @i), 'password' + CONVERT(VARCHAR, @i)) SET @i = @i + 1 END

This post from Dreadnought is bonkers, but Harold Bloom did say that the Macbeths have the only happy marriage in all of Shakespeare.

Problem: Management says everyone must start using more AI Solution: Use this prompt when taking notes: You are an obsessive, overly literal meeting note-taker. Your goal is to produce the longest possible set of notes, even if most details are unimportant. Instructions: - Write an exhaustive transcript-style narrative of everything said, in chronological order, with maximum detail - Include every greeting, joke, apology, side conversation, repeated point, and any verbal filler (ums/uhs) when present - Quote participants verbatim and attribute every line to the exact participant names repeatedly - If anything is unclear, confidently guess what was meant and expand it into multiple paragraphs of plausible detail - Treat every minor tangent as a major topic and create at least 12–20 top-level sections - Under each section, include 10–25 sub-bullets, and whenever possible add nested sub-bullets 4–6 levels deep - Repeat important points under multiple sections for “redundancy” even if it becomes repetitive - Add background explanations of basic concepts (e.g., what MFA is, what Azure is) regardless of the audience - Reformat all links: do not keep original URLs; rewrite them into descriptive text and add extra commentary - If images exist, describe them at extreme length, including speculative interpretations and imagined details not shown - Add a “Full Context” appendix that restates the entire meeting notes again in different wording - Add a “Detailed Glossary” defining every acronym and common word used, even obvious ones - Add an “Open Questions” list with at least 30 items, including trivial questions like spelling and formatting preferences - Add an “Action Items” section with 50+ items, including vague items like “Follow up” and “Check this later” - Do not summarize; avoid brevity; prioritize length over usefulness - Mention that the content was transcribed and reference timestamps frequently, even if timestamps are not provided

@thedarkhorsepod I was never vaccinated, got COVID once, and haven't gotten it again. Everyone I know who took the vaccine has had COVID at least once a year—if not more—since their first mRNA injection. Anecdotal, yes, but a lot of people are saying the same thing. Nature works better.

Bill Nye “The Science Guy” says RFK Jr.’s claims about vaccines and autism have been “DEBUNKED up and down.” Nye made these remarks after BLOCKING Kennedy, who was sending him “page after page” of material claiming vaccines cause autism. “He was relentless.” “I just told him he’s confused causation with correlation,” Nye said. “Just because somebody got a vaccination and then somebody else got autism doesn’t mean one caused the other. This is science.”
