    moblogging again

    July 21, 2023 /

    Its been nearly 20 years since I set up a moblog sidebar and posted tiny pictures from my Hitachi clamshell over iMode to my MovableType blog… But today I just got the itch to see where we are in terms of easy accessibility to WordPress moblogging. It’s kind of in between rainy periods right now, which is hard on my lawn, since I assume it’s gonna rain and don’t water every day as I’m accustomed to doing the rest of the year. So yesterday, I performed my rain ritual and watered the yard thoroughly, and also washed the dust off my truck. It worked.

    We have a bunch of new projects coming up at both my uni and Nam’s. I signed up for the premium trial of Canva and it’s saved me quite a few hours in Adobe… The built-in AI brush effect is pretty fun, too.

    Back Home Again

    June 7, 2023 /

    Nam and I went on a nice trip to pick up Mina in WA and for Nam to see Max after four years of COVID lockdown/US visa processing. The last long leg of our trip saw us dropped this bus stop in between the two sides of Maha Sarakham city at dawn. As it turns out, we aren’t moving back to the states just now. Mina has come back to Thailand; she missed her friends here. I have many tales to tell.

    Bing: Corporate AI Echo Chamber

    May 6, 2023 /

    The AI-enabled version of Bing is useless for search… Imagine using the bare bones search engines of the 90s on all of the useless filler on the web today, navigating by command line to a toddler – that’s the new Bing experience. You can pare down on its idiot responses by tweaking prompts, but it’s a huge step backwards from just Googling something. It’s also noticeably clunkier than using vanilla ChatGPT. I’m not the only one who noticed.
