It is bizarre how one hour of jetlag is affecting my ability to function. If they ever invent a time machine I call dibs on giving whoever thought up DST a wet willy or three!

A few weeks ago our founder announced Monty, a minimal, secure Python interpreter written in Rust, for running code written by AI agents. People got excited. @sa.muelcolvin.com just wrote up the full story on why he's excited about it and you should be too.

Holy shit! This looks stunning. 🤯
Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
This applies not just to academics.
I absolutely love this project! Such joy and whimsy. 😍
We updated the plots we use to measure the open model ecosystem at
interconnects, to guide The ATOM Project, and to understand what's happening.
We have ~8 plots to summarize what's happening.
First, the high level picture showing China's growing adoption lead.
Super cool! Interested to try it out when you need more testers in the future. Cheers.

LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD:
It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS.
I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x
Thoughtful (as always) blog post from Nicholas Carlini. "Are large language models worth it?" A nice read giving his perspective on risks of ML models.

For people who prefer, this is the video of the talk from @colmweb.org www.youtube.com/watch?v=PngH...
I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!
Very interesting... We should try it sometime!
Sweet! That's only between players or for players and enemies? I was really impressed at the system watching the DnDShorts video on it last year. Looking forward to trying it some time.
