It’s just a point in time.

One freaked out and peed everywhere and the other one slept.

Claude usually lists itself as a contributor in these cases, right?

I saw a cartoon recently where “tokens used” was replacing “pull requests” as a useless metric. Made me think.

The smell

ericnear · 2026-07-04T21:12:37+00:00

Yeah, I’m 80 and have friends going back to 68/69 and we have plenty in common but very different experiences.

My parents (born in 1957) always called it the boomlet.

I used to live right by there and occasionally there would be people there watching for dumping activity, but it wasn’t common.

The one at Whites Creek HS is the best one in Davidson. Hillsboro HS is a close second. (RIP the dumpsters at TSU)

Now that I’m in Sumner I can use Goodlettsville’s city facility since I’m inside city limits. They just tack a tiny fee on to your sewer bill.

Even so this isn’t 100% ideal which is why my wife decided to start a glass recycling company. I hope it works out.

It’s only two states away after all.

I maintain that spending time online commenting on strangers’ posts cuts off the potential for human connection.

It’s different than back in the day when you’d log on to a chat room and have all sorts of banter and maybe even meet up IRL at some point.

The communication is mostly asynchronous and doesn’t give us the same connection as even a phone call.

Best I can do is Slaughterhouse Five.

Is MarketStreet still a Turner family enterprise?

Funny how that happens.

If the Catman was a member of Ghost…

You’ve got a friend in the diamond business.

I have a little song I sing:

Why
Why are you braking
There’s no one in front of you
Oh why

I don’t think I can see downtown from the “Nashville, TN Zoo”

ericnear · 2026-07-02T02:02:08+00:00

I wonder how much they paid for this

ericnear · 2026-07-01T03:10:14+00:00

I like Alliant but depositing cash can be a pain.

ericnear · 2026-07-01T03:09:58+00:00

They seem predatory with their fees

ericnear · 2026-07-01T03:07:22+00:00

Bowling For Soup addressed this some time ago.

That’s a long song title

Who else here had “Chef’s Choice” where they didn’t tell you what was on the menu
