But they can drive themselves. And it's awesome and helpful! You just have to keep an eye on them in case they mess up. And it's way easier than driving, and way better than you at some things, including avoiding many accidents. And they keep messing up less each year.
David Byrne came to my band’s show at a gay bar in Bed-Stuy and sang This Must Be The Place with us and I still haven’t processed it
I remember getting into a loooong fight last year about whether Bluesky users should have the freedom to turn off the company's moderation filters. This is why I was right: techcrunch.com/2025/04/23/g...

Dems could go a lot harder than this.
Bukele will likely still be alive and not bankrupt when the next Dem president is elected.
Promise to pursue him for a terrorist conspiracy again US residents.
Would be an interesting escalation for Dem candidates to promise the heaviest possible negative consequences to any foreign country that plays along with Trump's "offshore gulag" move.
Also, are the Americans who participate in this violating any criminal laws?
This sends my brain into the nightmare of how to do that.
This and the post about Democrats are spot on. Re: democrats, it doesn't seem like the younger generation of the candidate pool is any better than the old guard, and it might be worse. Probably true on the Republican side too. Tactical and unprincipled, like Trump. Thoughts?
On a flight and the toddler behind me seamlessly transitioned from general babble into the synth riff from Amour Toujours.
My biggest frustration in terms of rising to this moment is: people obviously do not understand that there's a whole psyop strategy around DEMORALIZATION.
I do not necessarily think that every doomcryer is insincere, but to steal hope is still to hand our enemies weapons.

The ones who support one or the other but not both are only fair-weather authoritarians.
The worst authoritarians, and the real fascists, are those who support both the ICE raids on Columbia students *and* harsh prison sentences for January 6th protesters.
Uber added mototaxis in Rio last year and they cost less than the subway for short rides.
And drivers earn as much as car Uber drivers, more than transit workers.
No dependency on fragile institutions.
Not sensitive to technical debt or underinvestment.
Organically improves as better tech becomes available. (E.g. electrification.)
Pandemic-friendly and no risk of respiratory infection.
Safety approaches *perfect* as roads transition to self driving.
App-coordinated mototaxis are the best form of public transportation ever invented.
Similar carbon footprint to *walking*. Faster than anything. No middlemen or favoring of elite neighborhoods.
Work great on dirt roads, beaches, narrow paths. Electric options are silent.
Absolute must read. Edward Corristine was deeply involved witg a cyber criminal community called the Com. Members have been known to engage in the sexual extortion of children.

If there's an AI that trains on Wikipedia and needs a training run, but is more capable at solving problems than anyone alive, that doesn't count?
Another very different response is: what are you, if not a sophisticated statistical model.
If a synthetic statistical model could predict every word you'd ever say, is it incapable of reasoning?
If it can predict every word John von Neumann would say, is it not a genius?
They don't need human input to verify correctness.
"Similarly, for LeetCode problems, a compiler can be used to generate feedback based on predefined test cases."

They also don't need human input to improve the reasoning process.
Did you read the r1 paper? It's the big news this week. Check it out.
Go read it and tell me if it's true that an LLM outside of training cannot learn, or if it's true that the inputs still have to be human.
(It uses human inputs, yes, but its new special sauce is not human input, it's RL.)
