Today I got a notification on my phone that YouTube had sent me a copyright report, claiming one of my videos violated copyright and my channel was going to receive a strike.

Except, my video didn't violate copyright. And YouTube didn't really send me a copyright report.

“We would lose resoundingly if people were allowed to vote in a way that reflects actual majority opinion” is quite the argument, skipper.

“If more people got more of what they want, democrats would win” sure doesn’t sound like much of an argument against it.

wow! I personally like hi-viz as a fashion thing. But out of principle, I don't think I want to wear it for something like this. I don't want my clothes to say; "I'm scared of you and this street. Pretty pls don't hit me."

This weekend I met a wildland firefighter who was so *charmed* by Portland when he was here for the 2020 wildfires that he moved here.

If that sounds surprising, it’s because happy people rarely write op-eds on how Portland is great, actually.

Dude, this is amazing, not even going to lie. AI really is so cool and it's going to make it possible for people like me who are creative but can't draw be able to do art https://andys.page/posts/how-to-draw/

Intermittent reminder that I was dreading doing something today and IT TOOK 9 MINUTES TO COMPLETE.

So if you're dreading something, just set a timer for 10 minutes and GO GET IT DONE.

It will get done way faster than you think it will.

1/ Using AI to generate fashion

After a bunch of experimentation I finally got DALL-E to work for video by combining it with a few other AI tools

See below for my workflow -

Copyright is going to improve dramatically on YouTube. In the event there is a claim on the part of your video, you will be able to mute the music only (via machine learning) without having to mute or cut the entire section of the video... only the infringing song.

PROGRESS!

Final Fancy Monday of @pedalpalooza 2002 was Fantastic. Thank you to Sabrina for being my co-leader for two summers of dressing up and riding bikes slowly to picnics. Keep an eye out for a Fancy Fall weekend series on the @shift2bikes calendar coming soon.

I reiterate that Google as an organization does not understand how deeply their credibility with web developers has been tanked by spending years lying about what AMP was and why they were doing it.

Oh hey turns out the only reason AMP was worth doing was because google boosted their rankings and now they've stopped doing that there's no reason to use it: https://kurtgessler.medium.com/what-happened-when-we-disabled-google-amp-at-tribune-publishing-2fa65a2f2a40

Hi, grocery store order writer here, I track shrink as part of my job. Shrink due to theft is so much lower than shrink from what we literally throw in the garbage. Think 7% of total shrink vs 70% as out of date/damaged goods

Steal, it literally doesn't matter.

supermarket self scanners are an interesting cultural phenomenon where everyone seems to have just universally decided that it’s polite to steal about 20% of your groceries but no more.

The data is in. Just drop AMP. You'll be fine https://bit.ly/3ciDZvK
