New on the Secret Area: "Halo with chips" has been found.
A dumb back of the box quote from Maxim magazine promoting a poker video game had become a small meme. I wanted to find out where it came from.

i've published my first #chumby widget:
http://chumby.com/guide/C78EE13C-CE96-37DB-8202-C7A207F24A0D/widget
it's a weather widget that's inspired by WeatherSTAR 4000-era The Weather Channel, currently it's limited to guessing your location but the next step will be making a way to choose an exact location to report about

I do not worry about being "left behind" due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about a massive dip in the quality of software that's already been moldering for years due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the FOSS maintainers who are already under-compensated for their work burning out entirely having to deal with the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the environmental impact of the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the laundering of FOSS (and non-FOSS source available!) code into projects that are now legally culpable due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the people who can no longer write code without leaning on an LLM coding agent becoming helpless without spending ridiculous (and increasing) amounts of money to companies that may or may not exist in a year due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I do not worry about being "left behind" when it all comes crashing down and people who are actually skilled have to pick up the pieces and rebuild due to the adoption of LLM coding agents.
New Secret Area post: On random memes, old game shows and "Glunch."
A meme among me and a few friends goes from a silly image on Tumblr to me discovering the show the image is from. One of my nerdy pop culture journeys.
Shares and comments appreciated!
for years, I've held onto this random image that someone found on a tumblr somewhere, and I always wanted to find the show in question
and now I have.
I'm gonna compliment my friends and colleagues, who can sit down and write thousands of words on a constant basis
I must ask: What's your secret
Because sometimes I can bang out 1,000 words in an instant, other times I'm lucky to get even a paragraph.

Anyone ever had someone close to you say that you should embrace AI for your creative work or you'll be left behind?
Because I've gotten that conversation from my dad twice now and I hate it so damn much
been feeling maximum executive dysfunction lately and I hate it
There's folks who remember when this song was popular when it was new.
There's folks who remember this from an important scene from Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill.
Me, however? "Oh hey, that's the theme they used in the pilot for Bullseye!"
