Just throw 'em in. Stir the pot.
Sure, you could drop them in the RTT but it'll just get buried by the sleep-deprived swarm in there.
So get things going.
They don't have to be unpopular. They don't have to be incendiary.
You don't even have to stand by it five minutes later.

I will stand on this one, though:
Wes Borland is a legitimate artist.
I don't hate on Fred Durst but his job was just being Fred Durst.
Wes was not only an outstanding writer and guitarist but an extraordinary performer.
I don't think people still talk about that band if not for him.

I've got lots, but I'll open up the floor.

I don't dislike them, but I don't think they really go with anything.
What do you get them with?
Salmon?
Brussel sprouts or other brassicae?
I honestly don't know.

I was reading an article last night about silicon valley flipping out that a Claude instance decided to lie, cheat, and steal when it was given command of the cafeteria and given the instructions to maximize profit margins, like this was some unusual leap of logic or something, or that it required incredible intelligence and cunning.

And I was like, maybe silicon valley doesn't know how the world, or its own training data, works.

The entire internet is going to have reams of collected data about skimming, fraud, etc, etc, etc., and the idea that it takes smarts to cheat is just... have you seen the world? Cheating is usually the first place the stupid people go.

All these incredibly well-funded AL research centers producing this beautiful graphs showing exponential improvement in all sorts of "domains" without any context whatsoever.

I know that we're not entirely clear of COVID but I do think that everyone should do a pretty comprehensive internet detox, because you should not have to listen to people saying things that you recognize from secondhand podcasts.

There are podcasts that straight up regurgitate content or spew clips and stories without adding anything but they're digestible and circulate more easily and draw traffic.
