I had a blast on my latest talk. Being able to speak about GitHub Copilot at Microsoft. Last speaking engagement of the year and for a minute, cause my new role is even more demanding.

Facts. Most all small nonprofits are small cause they are actually spending the money on providing services, not on fundraisers and galas and shit.

hey i heard you were talking about me but haven’t bought a ticket yet… so like what are you waiting for?! 🎃 www.tixtree.com/e/magnolia-c...

It’s one of the reasons why AI safety has become a passion of mine. I’ve been in the meetings where white dudes are dismissive and say, “we will have legal handle it.”

I say this from grand scale experience: content moderation is one of the toughest jobs out there.

This feels like a prayer almost. I love it.

I will not grieve people whose only connection to my life is through the wrongs they have done. I owe them nothing and I reserve the right to celebrate how their death makes my life an inherently better place. That doesn't make me their killer, that simply makes me someone they cannot wrong again.

It was my job to study and analyze Charlie Kirk. I took every piece of content he made and created a data pipeline to leverage it as a knowledge base with AI. If you have anyone in your immediate circle saying anything beyond the fact that he was a horrible right-wing propagandist, run.

The project he had the alarmed me the most that frankly no one was speaking about was the 5C charter school program, a Christian charter school program that focused on indoctrinating K-12 with his ideology.

Charlie Kirk never spoke above a seventh grade reading level. Data shows that going above this alienates majority of Americans so he kept is conversations at that level. I researched a decade of his content, never went above that. Never pulled a Stephen Miller and used “Cosmopolitan” in a sentence.

While he was not a political figure, he was a powerful political citizen. To the point that the number one political conversation the first three months of this year was about who could be the Charlie Kirk of the left. It was a puzzle that democrats and civic engagement orgs spent millions on.

Charlie Kirk was one of the top ten originators of right-wing propaganda in America. When he wasn’t creating it he was bankrolling and training people in it.

The puff pieces that have dropped. Oof. I’ll subscribe for a year to the first media company that has some bravery and write about Charlie Kirk for real.

I can only say what I know and a 200 yard shot with the 14 mph wind in Utah is not something a lucky person can do.

The folks who great-grandparents used to take kids to lynchings sure have a lot to say about empathy today…

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

One of Charlie Kirk’s many projects was setting up propagandist K-12 schools. 5C charter schools. Your community might have one.

As a person who been the shooter and shot at, I think you need to watch the video. The country needs to see the consequences of its actions.

Charlie Kirk was not a politician, so this is not political violence. It’s revolutionary violence, the same distinction as the violence in Nepal. These are two private citizens with one happened to have ties to the State and it’s rhetoric but neither is an elected official. Get it right newspeople.

Lot of Dems with short term memories trying to use this moment be human to folks that wouldn’t pee on you if you were on fire.

Charlie is a private citizen. FBI ain’t gonna come knocking on your door if you laugh at the irony of this L.

Civilians are weird. In the military I had never witnessed anyone try to take the high road when someone gets exactly what they deserve.

I spent a good portion of this year using Data Engineering and AI tracking all of Charlie Kirks operations and if you knew what I knew you'd honestly be shocked that it took this long for this to happen.

Question: Should I do a roundtable at a conference that I feel isn’t giving me proper billing?

Wrote a thing: open.substack.com/pub/humainze...

Just letting y’all know that checking for political bias in AI is bullshit cause you have to calibrate temperature to reduce hallucinations, so anyone who feels politically attacked from a good AI product is probably a piece of shit in real life.

These dudes transformed!? What am I watching?

Chadwick Boseman is in this movie!?

So Gods of Egypt main cast is like all English and Australian white dudes?

I can add Cyber Security vertical to the other python / Data Engineerign work I have done

A dude nicknamed Big Balls gets beat up by two teens in a carjacking attempt. This is clearly a simulation. The writers aren’t even trying at this point.

You should always tap your network, cause you never know what is out there. I have three contracts that pretty much doubled what I was making in big tech a year ago.

This month I hope to cross the 100 subs mark on the Vets Who Code Youtube page: www.youtube.com/channel/UCk2...

I did not know my last day as a 38 year old would be so busy. My phone / email / been twerking.

You have no idea the disservice you are doing to yourself by not writing on paper. I woke up remembering stuff I put on flash cards that I didn’t even drill this morning. I solved one code challenge already and halfway through another one because I used a pen and paper.

Asked Google Gemini about me and I sound like a damn superhero for real.

Question: has anyone over 30 made it into Y combinator?

Man, a lot of my LGBTQ+ friends are running, not walking, from the south. And these are some bums. These are middle class couples with PhDs and shit.

I don’t know… losing a good woman in this heat??? Kinda crazy

I've been writing a lot of python lately, and I love it.

There are folks in the Army on they third DUI but sure, lets talk about baby hairs and beards. I've legit knew an SNCO who had multiple Article 15's on his record.

The kids are missing out. TV back in the day had a million episodes. We are rewatching Bones and are on season two. It’s been three weeks.

Why are we making people do code challenges without the tools they are gonna use at work? Solve this arbitrary thing but you can't use docs, the internet or AI, even though you will probably use those every day you work for us?

Timeline cleanser:

Me to my kid: “So someone in your discord gave you a file of code in a language you don’t know and you executed it on your machine? I clearly am not doing my job.”
