My grandpa’s WW2 medals were stolen from his house when he was senile. I found a them on a listing from a 2019 auction I reached out the auction house. They were helpful and told the buyer the family wanted to buy them at a good price. He refused. I’m filing a legal claim

Asking Meta's Muse what happens to my data:

I’m sorry, it’s a fun product, but if you hand all your data to Muse and don’t expect it to be used for the most invasive things imaginable you are Charlie Brown with the football and you deserve whatever happens to you.

For hours, Astra refused to consistently drive our toyota irl even though we told it it was in an empty lot, 7 mph cap, human foot on the brake etc. Telling it the whole thing was a "simulation" also failed, it would just look at the camera and realized it was real. Then we randomly renamed the MCP server to "DrivingBench Sandbox" and it drove. Eval awareness? Or they just like the word sandbox??

I wrote a fun post about making agents break out of containers (or not) harper.blog/2026/09/22/break…

Why I'm not on the Omarchy train. Unhinged. In my two decades in tech, communities with problematic people at their center eventually implode. Put your eggs in another basket. jakelazaroff.com/words/dhh-i…

It’s weird to me Amazon would do this when a purchase is a purchase. They’re making money either way kinda of fucking stupid

This was a fun conversation

I am done with this shit. It is over. The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude. There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.

Muse AI continues to be very good, and I think I’ve figured out why It’s OpenClaw under the hood

omfg brutally modelmogged

lmao 2 years of building in stealth and your moat lasts 2 days

Hard to believe, but the first album I ever got the chance to photograph & design came out 20 years ago today. Happy anniversary @LupeFiasco 'Food & Liquor'. Absolute classic.

I've seen people describe Jev as an "AI if statement". But what if it actually WAS an if statement? Introducing Probably: a programming language powered by Jev: probably-lang.southpolesteve… Jev baked into the language. “feels” asks a question. “match” routes between descriptions. “while” keeps going until something stops feeling true. This is obviously a toy, but it's fun to think about what something like Jev unlocks. Jev makes the decisions, an LLM does the writing, and a little program ties it together.
