Our subsidized LLM usage is at the cost of data. Just like Facebook, when the product is free (or in this case, a loss-leader) you are the product being sold.

One of my Claude instances was having strange permissions issues. It then found its own settings .JSON and modified it to add the allegedly needed permissions. RIP this Claude CLI instance.

Your chance to do more than talk. Even if the call to action is… commentary. This could be a first step towards eliminating the current shotgun approach of firms who both exploit the holders and the Visa itself. I know many brilliant individuals who came in on this Visa, and are now amongst our best and brightest citizens. The current implementation ensures that those individuals are few and far between because their merits have to compete with a lottery system that effectively favors ballot stuffing for an end goal depressing wages.
Urgent Appeal to patriot Americans: Please submit public comment for 2 important H1B regulations, and encourage your family members to submit their own comments as well. If you have multiple family members who want to participate, each person should submit their own genuine, individual comment based on their own views and experiences. Please consider encouraging at least 5 people in your family/community to participate. regulations.gov/document/USC… regulations.gov/document/USC…

This proves that a lot of people would rather fight and argue on X than actually submit a public comment where it can make a difference. Total Comments: 10,648 Comments opposing regulation: 9,145 Comments supporting regulation: 1,192 Wow. I honestly can’t believe this. We will lose on this regulation too. Comment here ; regulations.gov/document/USC…

Younger people might not know this, but before social media, we didn't have to listen to crazy people. At all.

Former FBI counterterrorism expert John O'Neill retired from the bureau in 2001, became the head of security at the World Trade Center in August (8/11) 2001, and was killed there during the September 11 attacks. He had led investigations into major al-Qaeda plots, including the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing, and the 2000 USS Cole attack. RIP, he chose the hill that he died on. And he was right.

Our solar system is in a remote part of our own galaxy and at the same time, our galaxy is a small group of galaxies sitting at the very edge of a galaxy cluster. So we are in the boonies of the boonies.

Why is the world not exploding around Astra the way in which we did around fable? It’s pretty good so far. OpenAI is pretty generous for usage. I may cut my $200/month Claude in favor of $400/grok & $20/month Codex

$400/YEAR Grok isn’t bad

Hunter squandered all the goodwill for some money. I genuinely enjoyed his return to public life, same with Tucker. Unfortunate.

Frontier AI is built on the accumulated output of the American public and industry. The public should in fact own a piece. Bernie Sander’s demand of 50% is too high and OpenAi’s offer of 5% is too low. Seed a sovereign wealth fund with 49% of all frontier labs, acquired through compelled share issuance, held with an anti-dilution ratchet.

Gaming might be one of the few avenues in media left where merit is valuable, and providing a high quality product that people enjoy is in fact rewarded. You don’t need a 100m budget to release a good game, nor a team that checks a million specific boxes.

Rockstar is spending billions for perhaps a 50% profit. Spend $2000 making a game yourself and it makes you $10,000. Your margins are better than Rockstar.

America is both incredibly free and incredibly censored. We’re free to watch every Iranian state propaganda video for free on YouTube. But we can’t find Kanye West’s latest album anywhere online.
