As a young girl I remember always being told, “You can be whatever you want to be!!” From an astronaut to a doctor, a lawyer, a vet, you could do it all. But there was always this pesky little condition: your dreams had to be big. They had to sound impressive. Nobody ever

Just stumbled into Grokipedia’s Wikipedia entry. It’s an obvious, harsh and emotive critique that focuses almost exclusively on Grokipedia’s shortcomings while neglecting (almost to the point of hiding) basic context (early beta, imperfect, biased, rapidly improving). In doing

Fake is worse than bad “It’s not X — it’s Y” isn’t inherently bad, but it’s become a syntactic bête noir because it feels fake Same reason most people don’t admit to nose jobs. Not because the result is bad. They’re embarrassed that it’s not “real” Authenticity is among the

AI + art = bad is a superficial learned perspective
Apparently this video has all of X in a frenzy. If it had come out before the AI era, people would be fawning over it as great art, but now they are so clicker trained that any mention of AI sends them into a verbiage frenzy and they anoint anything AI related as slop.

The most powerful scientific instrument of the 21st century isn't the electron microscope or the particle collider. It's the algorithm. Today, a scientist in biology, physics, chemistry etc. is more likely to be debugging a Python script than to be running a wet lab. Going

Actually, obligatory: Two economists are walking in a forest when they come across a pile of shit. The first economist says to the other “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.” The second economist takes the $100 and eats the pile of shit. They continue walking until
Every dollar spent on food stamps creates $1.50 in economic activity. Only the economically illiterate want to cut food stamps.

God created only 600000 souls, one for every letter of the Torah. These souls are split across 8Bn people, which explains why most people are sharing identities or are outright npcs

I don't get people that are convinced of the contrary. Never saw a convincing counterthesis, not even once (and I hope to be enlightened).
@AnnaLeptikon I am agnostic, but somehow you are not. Don't you think that given the observable capabilities of systems that are end-to-end trained to reproduce perception, classification, theory of mind, self-reflection etc. you would need more specific arguments to make the above claim?

I’m proud of this one. I brought a solar telescope to Florida to capture a Falcon 9 rocket launch transiting the sun. While these have been captured before, never with the details of the sun’s chromosphere, which makes this one the first! See the video or get the print below 👇

Every robot you see is a data firehose generating terabytes of chaos. This hidden crisis is the #1 reason robots fail, and it's costing the industry billions. You see hardware, but not the data swamp drowning engineers. In 2025, a quiet revolution is fixing it. Here’s how. 🧵
