Mostly Dead Is Partly Alive Edition

Top Story

  • BuzzFeed used ChatGPT to write a story about CNET using ChatGPT to write stories.  (BuzzFeed)

    How did it go?
    Note: This article was written entirely by ChatGPT and reviewed by a human editor. (Actually, we had to rewrite the prompt a few times to get it to stop inserting factual errors.)
    So rather better than usual then.


  • Kronii case arrived.  I am slightly disappoint that it didn't come in a fabulously Kronii box the way the Bae case did.

    Now I have two shiny new computer cases but still zero shiny new computer parts to put in them.


  • Happy godawful modern sculpture day!


Tech News

  • Why is there a global shortage of silicon chips?  A global shortage of silicon potatoes.  (Jabil)

    Basically.

    Pretty much everything needed to make chips is in short supply - so the chips themselves are in short supply.

    Thinking of making myself some dual RP2040 hobby boards.  Those at least you can get.


  • Nope, that's it.  No huge security disasters today, no blockchain meltdowns.  All quiet.


  • Too quiet.
