GROK BOT NOW ANSWERS EVERY SPAM CALL I GET. 63 THIS MONTH. EACH ONE GOT A LEGAL NOTICE AND MY NUMBER REMOVED grok bot can take phone calls now. i gave it one job: pick up anything marked spam risk one from this morning: caller: "we've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty" bot: "recorded line. this number is on the national do not call registry" bot: "under the TCPA that's up to $1,500 per call. remove it now, or i file with the FTC today" caller: "okay! removing it. sorry" after the call it sends that company a written notice and logs it 63 calls this month. 63 notices. the last 9 days, zero spam. only people i know call now ask yours: "answer every call marked spam risk. tell them to put my number on their do not call list, get the company name, and send a written notice after." the setup is in the article below โ†“

"Orange" flavoured candy is another example of deadweight loss. No one on earth wants orange candy, but manufacturers feel compelled to include them in the mix. Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold.

hold shift, cmd+left, then press right should not expand the text selection area to the right. it should change the selection area on the left side

Why is AI slop so frustrating to read? AI writing often obscures main ideas and invents awkward phrases, making sentences more complex than necessary. Many of these slop patterns violate writing principles established in English writing books. In our benchmark, AI writing breaks these principles far more often than human writing, with Claude Code replies by far the worst offenders. We show examples of the most common slop patterns in this thread

This writing stuff matters because the majority of the internet we consume is AI generated. And as work, research, and technical communication become increasingly AI generated, we must make sure that AI communicates clearly in a way that us, humans, can understand.
