Austrian cow shows first case of flexible, multi-purpose tool use in cattle
In 1982, cartoonist Gary Larson published a now-iconic "Far Side" comic titled "Cow Tools." In it, a cow stands proudly beside a jumble of bizarre, useless objects that are "tools" in name only.Cell Press (Phys.org)

first wash the lentils
then soak them over night
we take bacon, onions, pepper, cloves and allspice to make the broth while the lentils coock in another pot
when the onions are squishy the broth is done
to the sieved broth
we add potatoes
celery
carrots
and leek
and cook it
then we add the bacon
and our coocked lentils
for thickening add red lentils or mix a part of it and give that back to the pot

"botshit" when my temper is short
"words with ambition of being doggerel"?
It seems to me that's more specific, it's *poetic* slop.
This entry was edited (Thursday, January 15, 2026, 2:35 AM)
also recommend “execrable” courtesy of roger ebert
@gaditb No ambition, though.
Which is most of the problem; there are people, and they have agency, but the machine doesn't. It's remarkably similar to those stories about magic mills that can grind out anything, and someone gets greedy and instead of winding up with salt in the oceans we wind up with a vast quantity of the seductive whispers of demons, that have no knowledge of good and evil and so aren't even lies.
@Sharksonaplane we used to post into #doggerel on twitter and looking in our archive theyre not our worst posts
"pink slime" is still a perfectly good phrase
Doggerel is fun. Writing doggerel is how you learn the craft of writing more serious verse. Here is some fun doggerel written by Samuel Johnson as parody of bad poetry:
I put my hat upon my head,
And walk'd into the Strand,
And there I met another man
Whose hat was in his hand.
Perfect meter, but nothing to say. And of course "The Night Before Christmas" is definitely doggerel, and also fun.

I don't know. Doggerel still implies that some effort went into the writing.

i'm probably going to be told tomorrow that i'm being laid off, so if anyone has a lead on a decent remote embedded software engineering or unix/linux systems job, i've got a resume to send you.
i don't like discussing the specifics of who my past clients have been in public. however, my most recent position was contracting with the kernel team of a major CDN and cloud services provider that i know many people on fedi are also current or former employees of, maintaining their internal linux distribution (an customized Ubuntu downstream) for their custom server platforms, porting forward and cleaning up patchsets to newer versions of the distribution, fixing issues in toolchains and libraries, etc.
i've also done embedded software work for a large variety of devices including medical, cellular technology, and industrial control equipment, in addition to some consumer products. i've done board bringup and BSP development with Yocto/Openembedded, Buildroot, FreeRTOS, etc, on most major SoC and microcontroller families. when doing business logic, I am most comfortable in C and Lua, but fine working with C++ codebases, and can learn to work with other languages if a project needs it.
boosts appreciated.

NSFS - Not Safe For Smurfs!
as i think a smurf is uniformly colored it depends on wether the sky is one color only and if it is the same color. Also the velocity of the smurf has to be low enough not to burn it up by air friction or to cause red shift.

Your timing is perfect. I actually wasn't sure to include the strawberry example in my blog post I published earlier today. Guess that's still a thing!
@timsev yeah, for the official record this screenshot is from a search performed just a few minutes before posting
You're absolutely correct, and it was smart to question this.
Yes, this stuff IS getting better or no! Good catch!
@rockerest “Yes, this stuff IS getting better or no!” had me rolling
why do I get the feeling that they’re starting to hard-code answers to these common tests in newer models

because they are, essentially?
*Just* thinking the same thing when I googled the strawberry question after seeing your post.
Boilerplate with a dash of randomness to the output prose
It could be, or it could be just that they're plagiarizing human authors' discussion of the problem from the past couple years, now in their updated training sets.
(Try giving it a different word, like bumbleberry, that isn't likely to be in those blog posts & has a different answer, and see how it does.)
@AmeliaBR I particularly like that the source cited there discuss.ai.google.dev/t/how-ma… contains the prompt sample “How many "r"s are in "strawberrry"?” (note the intentional misspelling)
How many rs in strawberrry
I don’t know what to say. All Gemini 2.0 models answer “3” for this question: How many "r"s are in “strawberry”? S T R(1) A W B E R(2) R(3) R(4) Y Can the Gemini dev team do me a favorite? Combine the reasoning of DeepSeek R1 + the massive token …Google AI Developers Forum
Depends how much you are looking to invest today…
**rubs hands**
I think it would be a great coding challenge to see how many ways people could implement a letter count program in different languages as an answer for this facepalm output...
I'm confident that even the most complex approaches (like firing up a Win98 with Excel97 and execute a VBScript on a virtual machine) would still cost less, consume less energy and be far more accurate than these... I don't even have words for them anymore.
So, I just checked this out. the first time I worded it differently and it got the answer correct. then second time I worded it like you have here and it was incorrect. I love oddities like this! Thanks for the chuckle.

@Guillotine_Jones I am certain that your therapist will be glad to discuss this with you, in detail.
@Guillotine_Jones When I read the article, it started a discussion with a good friend about how the article convinced me that I had wasted my whole life.
@Guillotine_Jones Huffing Toad Spit was only part of it.

I'm a champion of the "#Avatar" movies
Some people don't like them because they're rather bland and their popularity seems to come with zero impact on culture or society
But there's plenty of other movies for impact
And the popcorn muncher's message is benign, when it could have easily been not-so-benign, so I therefore support the franchise
Also I'm a degenerate knee-jerk contrarian so I champion "Avatar" because so many are unimpressed 😶🌫️

@benroyce @Kierkegaanks @log I definitely like their message, especially the nativist vs war machine story. But I’m married to a senior vfx guy, so a little too close to the industry to be able to just like the movies for their content. 😹
@benroyce @wendinoakland @Kierkegaanks @log
It's like Liberace complaining about everyone calling him a "queer". He said it made him cry - all the way to the bank.
Cameron is his own particular kind of movie making beast. Completely unique. This is his money, his story. Quit complaining and enjoy 'em.
@wendinoakland I imagine it'd be like eating a mass-market chocolate-flavored candy if your spouse were a Principal Oompa-Loompa at Wonka Research Labs--Chicago Division.

Copyright protects the expression, not the plot. And screenplays, especially those crafted in Los Angeles, have always had a somewhat tenuous relationship with the adaptation rights, and carry deep expertise in avoiding infringement that can be proven at trial.

Or, you can just read Deathworld by Harry Harrison and marvel at how James Cameron barely bothers to hide his massive fucking thefts.
(*takes pipe out of mouth and indicates*)
Now, it would be remiss of me to jump to any unfounded conclusions on his character but I do believe Cameron to be a fuckerie of a major raasklaat, dear boy.

Attached: 1 image Why watch Avatar3 or any of James Cameron's films when you can read the short fast-paced Vietnam War allegory DeathWorld by Harry Harrison and its two official sequels!? Same goes for the Predator franchise. AfterEarth. 65 ...quangobaud (kolektiva.social)
@wendinoakland Looks like you're fediblocked from each other.
Was referring to Harry Harrison's "Deathworld" series written works.
Oh, dunno. We must’ve been at odds. Don’t think I’ve read Deathworld.

@miguelpergamon Harrison did get some of his work legit-adapted into feature movies, and he's dead, so I'm not going to cry for him too much, just because Cameron might be robbing his tomb-treasures. Nor will I defend Cameron on artistic merits. I will salute his deep-water environment expertise, though. Whether he can make an original artwork or not, he does know how to dive, and that is more difficult than outer space.
@log @benroyce @wendinoakland @Kierkegaanks
Yeah, I know blah Terminator blah Matrix blah Gravity bladi-blah.
Cameron puts Glen Larceny to shame (even though Larson definitely created original ideas ... sometimes).
