🎵 They call me Dead Brain Worm
Good morning how are you I'm Dead Brain Worm
I'm interested in things
I'm not a real Brain but I am a real Dead Worm

"Let’s get this out of the way right now because not only did the explosion of AI in 2023 prove to be the dominant strain of brain rot among tech news topics, its towering philosophical stupidity ultimately rose to overshadow a lot of otherwise quite pressing tech fails that deserve to be slung into the literary sky and double-barrel obliterated like clay pigeons."

Sigh, I haven't used Apple Music (the macOS app) in any meaningful way since it replaced iTunes, but using it to rip some CDs I see it's been infected with the same Bad UI Virus as YouTube Music.... namely, "dumb down the UI for no good reason". The old iTunes column view was great, but apparently no one got promoted for maintaining it, so the only way to see albums is as a tile grid -- no list view available any more (flips table)

PSA: any manager who plans for 7-day workweeks and asserts this is the Right Thing To Do is incompetent and/or malevolent and should be (at least) removed from management, unless the project they are managing is "save humanity from a zombie invasion" or similar, and I will absolutely die on this hill
