I'm really shivering in my boots about all these agentic misalignment cases about an AI making up science fiction stories about all the things it would do in a completely hypothetical situation. LOL @ everybody taking this seriously at the current stage of tech development.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

sometimes you do have to hand it to them

5 seconds after Pierre claimed moral victory (during his concession speech) in denying the Liberals and NDP the seats required for a coalition government the CBC tracker ticket over the threshold required Today they can do so comfortably, and Pierre lost his own seat Couldn't happen to a nicer guy

Let this be a warning to you all: nobody steals my charts and gets to be Prime Minister of Canada

Look at this really cool painting I just got back from the framers

The Vatican really went all-in helping promote the new Ghost album

To clarify; not American bonds.

The Beaverton demands same debate invitation as The Rebel, even though we’re not as big a joke

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

I drive through this riding most days and the fact that Andrew Lawton is likely to get uncritically elected just for his association to the Conservative party is disheartening. This is a man who has been aligned with the most repugnant figures in Canadian and US political discourse for a decade ..

Funny how the Canadian Prime Ministerial candidate trying to dodge comparisons to DJT is talking about using legislative loopholes to remove peoples' rights and deporting political dissidents.

Unfortunately for Poilievre, even if this wasn't fuckig stupid on its face, I have absolutely zero faith in how he defines at least 3 words critical to enacting this policy.

The term colorway can go away now. Thank you!

bringing manufacturing back to the US

Hmmm, there must be a catch...

Yes. This is the only reason I ever hesitated to delete my account, and is the main concern I've heard from folks still holding out. Seems they are ripe to be knocked off that 'throne'.

I have liked this song forever open.spotify.com/track/3zy927...

Trump says no Nintendo because you have been bad

Can’t believe Trump just put a tariff on BOFA

everyone always says "death to america" but then when someone steps up and does it you get mad at him

It was.

Landed safely on a commercial flight in the US Going to buy a lottery ticket

Half the staff are busy reporting things like “Elon Musk’s teenage Nazis are manually scrolling through every American’s social media to decide whose Social Security checks to cancel,” and the other half is like “Here’s an exciting new software that could do it for them in a fraction of the time!”

The single fact about Tesla required to poison the well is the identity of its CEO

@ditzkoff.bsky.social From now on in every White House Chat:

The greatest moral failing of everyone in tech is that a bunch of people said "You have to take my ideas about AI and technology seriously" and we didn't immediately go "Wait didn't you base your entire worldview on Harry Potter fan fiction? How'd you even get in here? Get the hell out."

Roko's basilisk is Pascal's wager for STEM majors who have never read a book (redundancy, yes)

Technical traders are such goofballs. "I've seen this triangle before, and it means the market is either about to go up or down"

There will soon be thousands of such stories.

If you're Canadian remember that Visions Electronics is Canadian-owned. Selection is so-so, but prices are great and service is probably as good or better than what you will find elsewhere (location-dependant)

I take lots of pictures of good graffiti. This isn't that, but I love it.

Windows default background vibes

Still figuring out when/why this app makes me crop pics.

Another one.

I love this picture. Photography of sculpture feels particularly fun because you have full control over the angle, distance, and framing in a way you never get with humans.

Finally pulled the trigger and nuked all my Meta accounts - Whatsapp, FB, Messenger, Instagram. Feels strange, but also somewhat good? Was a pretty high hill to climb though considering how many social connections mostly exist in those places.

Honestly this is the funniest thing

Can I get one of those Starship fireworks at Buc-ees? Quite pretty

This man's brain is cooked

The fact that a large % of vaguely technically inclined people (incorrectly) feel that they implicitly understand AI, and how it does/could work, almost guarantees that the level of grift from startups will be astronomically higher than peak blockchain insanity.
