My boss just asked why token spend is up 40x month-over-month. I said "Jevons Paradox" and watched him nod slowly like a man planning to Google it later. Joke's on him; Google won't tell him that that's what I named my new AWS account.

apologies if the quality of my posts has fallen off unfortunately i had to go back to full time employment again to be able to afford more tokens

This morning you wake up and realize it's Syberia Remastered day 🤎

"Hey man, what are you listening to?" "Just the latest MC Kyrie Gregorian Drill cut featuring Friar FlexXx, Oblate Tha Don, and Suck-a-bus Sū." "Nice, nice." "Eh, it's alright. There'll be a new one in five seconds." "You know, I've been getting into a new genre myself. A subgenre, actually. Super niche." "Yeah?" "You've probably never heard of it." "Try me." "100% artisanal human music." "Yooo. Really?" "Yep. AI-free, completely non-synthetic." "Ah, you mean the golden oldies." "No, I—" "The Beatles. Nickelback. Taylor Swift." "No, I'm listening to—" "So crazy that she sacrificed herself to the gray goo prion swarm in 2033 and ascended to AI-Godhood, saving us all from the Singularity." "Bro." "More of a Grimes bit really." "Bro! I'm not listening to fuckin' Shake It Off or any of that old shit! I'm talking about 𝘯𝘦𝘸 human music!" "New human music?" "Made by people like you and me!" "Ha. Well, that ain't like you and me." "What?" "Fiddlin' around with strings and keys'n'shit. That's Amish as hell, man." "It's actually pretty good." "Do they churn their own butter too?" "I'm serious!" "Alright. Sell me on it." "Uh, well, you know how you can generate AI music instantly and then remix it forever, however you want?" "Uh, yeah? Yesterday I combined the latest Hatsune Miku Kawaii Future Bass banger with Norwegian Stomp-Clap Goregrind." "Right, so with human music, you don't have the power to do any of that and you just have to sit on your hands and wait for new releases." "Uh, okay. How long do I have to wait?" "It depends on the artist. Sometimes it's just months or years." "𝘠𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴?" "And sometimes whole decades will pass before they drop new material." "Decades?!" "And when you do get it, there's a decent chance it's just a pale imitation of the songs you loved—a desperate attempt to recapture the magic in a futile bid to retain fleeting relevance." "God." "And other times it'll be in a totally different, off-the-wall genre, like a rap legend dropping a meandering mystic free jazz flute album out of nowhere." "What? Why would I want that? Why would anyone want that?" "Nobody 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴 it. But that's what makes it 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨." "Huh?" "You never know if new human music is going to be any good. So you get to spend all that downtime imagining how it 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 be good." "You're a masochist, you know that?" "A masochist?" "And a gambler." "A gambler?? How am I a gambler?" "If I want to be disappointed by bad pulls, I can just play NIKKE: Goddess of Victory. Or the casino games on my official Chase credit card app." "I don't think you're seeing the beauty in anticipation, in—" "Over here talkin' some Dark Souls shit. 'Oh no bro, trust me, it gets good later. The fifth album is a return to form.'" "Sometimes it is!" "No wonder AI won. Human music, pft! Get outta here with that shit." "Hey! There's artistry, alright? You gotta respect the artistry." "I ain't got a respect shit." "It's live people! You can't say it wouldn't be cool to see live people play on stage." "Yeah? How many live people have you seen play on stage? "Well..." "In person?" "None." "I rest my case." "But that's because we all live in underground, independent, non-contiguous vaults!" "Lame." "Because of the prion swarm!" "Excuses." "Excuses?!" "Hey man, you're the one coming at me, extolling the virtues of 𝒂𝙧𝒕𝙞𝒔𝙖𝒏𝙖𝒍 𝒉𝙪𝒎𝙖𝒏 𝒎𝙪𝒔𝙞𝒄, and you're best pitch is that I can get sonically blue-balled by a buncha primitive finger-pluckin' baboons." "Okay, Mozart. Let's hear you do better." "I will. Perk your pretty little ears, Salieri, because I've been cooking in the Suno mines all morning—" "Oh yeah?" "—and I've got a new genre that's gonna sweep the world." "Really. What's it called?" "Orchestral Noisepop Fart-core." suno.com/s/7doBQJNvwuLZxv4I

Hoisting this computation out of the loop like I want to hoist the dev that wrote this up the yardarm

tempted to ask some people to change their name, collisions in both first name and initials is just too much
