@HyattConcierge Super frustrated with the inability to get a stay credit from @DreamsLosCabos. Stay was in July. Payment was processed in July. Hyatt's stay credit process has been non-responsive. Extremely disappointing.

FIlling out my provisional ballot and did not realize that Anna Eshoo was born in 1942. Thanks to her for her service and good on her for retiring.

PSA: if you are "in focus time" and you ask me to send a zoom meeting invite for a specific time, it will be automatically declined with a note: "Declined because I’m in focus time" -- Suboptimal outcomes all around.

Even though I'm going in early September to run the 5th Avenue Mile (slowly) with friends, I'm seriously considering going back to NYC for this event just 18 days later. Couldn't get to Eugene or Paris this year. @alexisohanian this is a genius idea.

I remain extremely skeptical of AI. This video confirms my instincts.
CW: Body Horror?
This AI video attempt to show gymnastics is one of the best examples I have seen that AI doesn’t actually understand the human body and it’s motion but is just regurgitating available data. (Which appears to be minimal for gymnastics) nitter.gq/Przemek87394560/status…

Setting up a new computer and hoped I could avoid even entering my Tw/X credentials. Alas-searching for "gymnastics" on bsky => all "mental gymnastics" and no actual gymnastics. Sports people, move to bsky, set us free. I implore you!

The launch of the Spotify AI podcast translation so FUNNY. You can absolutely tell that it is the voices of the people it is supposed to be, but DANG the "choices" around inconsistent phonetic pronunciation and blended accents from all the various Spanishes are wild.

That being said, while it's obviously robotic and weird now, no doubt it will improve, and quickly. open.spotify.com/show/0sVxKR…

Helping our friends figure out logistics for the Ed Sheeran concert and looking at the mass transit increased service options for the concert (from the MV transit station). It's the most USA thing ever. Obviously, we can do mass transit -- IF THERE'S ENOUGH MONEY TO BE MADE.

I would absolutely volunteer if I wasn't busy performing the marriage ceremony for a couple of friends this weekend. Anyone? Anyone?
Is it possible to hold a TIMED event without any TIMEKEEPERS?
We don't want to find out!
We need volunteers ASAP for this week's event

Treatment of @Jennihermoso=90% of my complaints about living in Spain: if we had a problem, we almost always received deluded takes on reality, gaslighting, passive-aggressive communication, & those in power (like landlords/University) saying that our lived experience wasn't real

IP contracts lawyer here--this Tuohy story, as alleged, is batshit. Standard contracts were an option. Either he needed a conservatorship or he didn't (it would appear since he got a BA, he did not). Why didn't Tuohy's counsel require that he have his own lawyer before signing?

I think I just encountered my first situation where "don't talk to cops" is bad advice. CSO showed up to collect legally required car accident info. Driver=non-English-speaking visiting parent, driving kids car & left with only a phone number of the other party. 1/2
