I'm creating some small side projects. First one is about books. https://t.co/Yv4F5l6SZb Please give it a go and tell me what are your thoughts. I will add new projects to this as a thread.

Graham Linehan was met at Heathrow by armed police for gender wrongthink labelled as 'inciting violence'. Keir Starmer's government, meanwhile, has moved heaven and earth to move this man to Britain:

This is an excellent question and helps tease out why the Galaxy Brain set is both so wrong but sound so good doing and lead so many people astray in the process. Take the consumption/rebalancing issue. As a matter of pure economics China should rebalance for so many reasons.

Vibe coding at the beginning of 2025 was driving me nuts. I wanted to kill every one of these fuckers because they were so dumb and limited in context size. Vibe coding in December 2025 is borderline boring. I just give Claude Opus the entire app, ask for something, and the

me: <takes enormous personal risk to buy apartments from slumlord, removes bugs, fixes heat, make nice again> them: cool, but are you raising rent? me: well, yea, it was $400/mo b/c there were velociraptor sized roaches and the heat didn’t work over there so we needed to invest

En Salamanca, cerca de donde vivo, está el paseo de Torres Villarroel. Nunca había prestado demasiada atención a quién era el personaje, pero en mi reciente visita a la Biblioteca de la Universidad me abrieron el apetito por conocer más de él

Pay attention to this signal. It‘s one of the trends I‘m closely following.

Fixed it.

I stole this parenting trick from the government. And it's eliminated 90% of power struggles with my kids. Here's how it works: My 5-year-old used to fight me EVERY NIGHT about brushing teeth. "No! I don't want to!" "You have to!" Meltdown. Tears. Exhausting. Then I changed

Everyone’s focused on the $400 million battery price tag. That misses the point entirely. xAI just told you power is now the binding constraint on AI training, and most people haven’t repriced what that means. The math: Colossus 2 needs 1+ gigawatts to run at full capacity.

This phenomenon isn’t exactly what will cause young people to reject socialism and embrace free enterprise…

When satellite operators do not share ephemeris for their satellites, dangerously close approaches can occur in space.   A few days ago, 9 satellites were deployed from a launch from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Northwestern China. As far as we know, no coordination or

Something something orange man bad. Now something something EU good. Of course assuming the EU will do something on China (unlikely)

This is what pure Evil looks like from an institution. There are no words. Governor.

I was trying to come up with ideas for UIs that are not based on text, but that are dynamically generated by an LLM. The one in the picture cracked me up. The LLM knew that the UI needed to be point and click, not text, but it couldn't go past the textual paradigm.

EXCLUSIVE: A Met officer was accused of running a VIP paedophile ring, which included an MP and a judge, that sexually abused young girls in care. A Met whistleblower claims it was “covered up” by the force. https://t.co/VwIEioGpHT

This is why the rape gangs got away with it for so long. The authorities were, as we suspected, part of it.

In today's episode of programming horror... In the Python docs of random.seed() def, we're told "If a is an int, it is used directly." [1] But if you seed with 3 or -3, you actually get the exact same rng object, producing the same streams. (TIL). In nanochat I was using the

Two conversations this weekend make me think that there's a vibe shift afoot in Silicon Valley around what one should work on and what is worthwhile. Culturally, it feels like the moment is ripe for new frameworks: • Davos expert morality is stale and discredited. • It's also

Yesterday at church the Bible readings started on page 66-67 of the missal, and my 5-year-old went absolutely nuts repeating "six seven" like 10 times. And now I think we need to make this narrow exception to the first amendment and ban these numbers forever.
