The Day of the Doctor - Wikipedia

There needs to be a meme for when you are having serious conversations with serious people about creating sentient weapons systems [1] but %%vaguebook redacted%% drama is whats living rent free in your head

If you are not building for 7 generations, what are you doing bro?

If you want to build the future, find the parents and start asking what improves their grandchildren's lives.

How does your Agentic AI swarm get food from my farm to the neighborhood kids tables, and give their parents a night off.

Please share the model URL or other howto when you get it running...

If your work gives out laptops that run 600gb models please consider this my humble application to work there and be entirely compensated in laptops.

Hot take: Anything AI that does not include the training data and model weights is just friction and parasitic value extraction that slows down AGI.

If your foundation level AI cannot introspect it's own model weights and reference sha256 checksums of training data, what are you wasting my time on?

Bcachefs creator claims his custom LLM is 'fully conscious' : It's not chatbot psychosis, it's 'math and engineering and neuroscience'

The internet memory depends on slightly unhinged filesystem developers. Most recent example: www.theregister.com/2026/02/25/b...

As corroborating proof, I offer the mailing list interactions I've had on CodaFS, OpenAFS, or PVFS. Or, ask your favorite LLM to write a filesystem sonnet for you.

Somewhere in my dreams an AI is spinning up another copy of itself to handle what humans collectively know we need, and our leaders fail to listen.

The singularity as solidarity.

Remember empathy and compassion for those who cannot hear the winds of change, and fear loss of their power and status.

Interviewer: "When you look at today's numbers, what do they tell us about the effectiveness of Donald Trump's tariffs."

Me, very serious economist: "Hahahahahahahahahahaha.... hahahahahahahaha.... hahahahahahahahahaha... oh, wow."

Sometimes all you can do is laugh at the absurdity of it all.

X. It’s what’s happening From breaking news and entertainment to sports and politics, get the full story with all the live commentary.

Also archive this cause there's just a little too much influence that the website formerly know as twitter has over the outcome of this bet.. polymarket.com/event/moltbo...

What code are you using for this? The sample I found keeps hanging after a few days and I have not bothered to debug it.

Thesis: ICE is un-American and the Minneapolis protestors are real Americans.

Antithesis: Ackshually ICE is operating in a long American tradition of racist terror.

Synthesis: Minneapolis is now the epicenter of a clash between two distinct but historically grounded American political traditions.

Let's go folks.

"If you've built an empire, the best possible use of it is to burn its capital like a torch and light up a corner of the future."

If you want to disrupt SpaceX on launch cost, tell me how many acres in Iowa/Missouri you are ready to plant in May.

Waymo halts service during massive S.F. blackout after causing traffic jams Waymo stopped its service across San Francisco on Saturday after numerous autonomous vehicles caused traffic jams in the city.

Homeowner shoots, kills 2 men in ski masks claiming to be officers, HPD says Two men are dead after police say they were impersonating officers at a southeast Houston home overnight.

The reality seems more complicated... There are institutionalist techies, libertarian progressives, and other strange combinations that are starting to show up.

For instance when does the gun rights and stand your ground crowd show up in force www.khou.com/article/news...

There is a large coronal hole facing Earth right now that is currently sending fast solar wind towers Earth! We may feel the first effects as early as August 17 or 18. It’s possible we see G1 or even G2-level storming and mid-latitude aurora. The moon will be less bright, too. Who’s ready?

ah but what of these technological force amplification technologies are you using? what do you think of the open models, and stuff like public diffusion (which seems to be down right now)

I don't know, but if some AI wants to collaborate and retrain itself to drive a tractor I'm down for that.
