The recent days have been horrific. We can't become numb to repeated instances of illegal and unconstitutional action by government agencies. It's even worse when public officials are blatantly lying in ways that contradict dozens of pieces of video evidence.

i found this in my weird cousin's basement... any idea if it's good?

this is extremely well made, but being both feral and illegible, i think this got some stuff wrong about me

yeah that sounds like me.

@joetforhire.com made the softwork artware

Adding this to my resume until I qualify for UBI

I couldn't help myself.

i made an interactive novel about the singularity, check it out merge.winedark.ink

elephant graveyard is the perfect example of "fear someone who has made the same video 1000 times"

hosting another interintellect salon--this time on post-literacy and the "digital reversal". come by! friday nov 21st 630-8. https://interintellect.com/salons/wine-dark-1-the-digital-reversal we'll be reading some ong, andrey mir, postman, etc over the course of the series. should be good!

collective human superintelligence via pol.is, conversational swarm intelligence, and citizen's assemblies is the best competing story we could tell vs. ASI feudalism/doom. the LLM as an un-integrated connective tissue

also loving opencode. opencode in the obsidian vault for the weekly review and life coaching is critical. we love claude but he is at work when u talk to him. kimi is free, a luxury space communist

what i really want tho is pol.is style "bridge-boosting" algo. thats probably just a custom feed. so i guess what i really *really* want is enough time to sidequest on atproto, which is an extreme amt of time due to my small brain and giant sidequest backlog

heard they got simclusters over here. GOOD. when groupchats get here? GREAT

never felt as seen by a politician as when john fetterman was giving his wife panic attacks driving 30 over the speed limit watching liveleak videos on his phone

i <3 librechat

still thinking about this

great thread

No, you are not our product. Our product _is_ the code that we write and distribute for others to use. For others to take and build their communities. Making the users the product is exactly the model that never works and continues to never work.

who could've foreseen the paranoid breakdown of our social fabric taking such a dark turn

so full of grief watching these ice raids in chicago

crazy lack of decorum in the pancake house

i still love hacker news cuz every week or two you'll get one of these little 200 word blog posts that remind you what it's all about sharif.io/anna-alexei

no thanks hillbilly i prefer abraham lincoln

still such a huge market gap for a bespoke app blocker/'cognitive hygeine' app

after all these years, how much of a culture's education/worldview is still just "the story of the last big war"

dark direct democracy

good pod idea: interviewing random high school US history teachers about These Times www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRdj...

getting back into pirating

no babe that's my emotional support RAM

Big thanks to Lance "it's ya boi" Robotson for having me on Neomania. Super nice to be added to the 'alt futures' archive discussing the present moment.

The internet, once hailed as a democratizing force for information, has become a primary vector for informational pathogens. Memetic contagions, engineered for maximum engagement, spread faster than well-researched, nuanced information. Our defenses are failing. (2/2)

anki automation is not enough. i must vibe code whole course dashboards with cards grouped by learning objective

i wrote up a little guide to using claude and anki to download knowledge into your brain super efficiently. if you ever want to speed-learn or just really pleasantly feed yourself knowledge in mooc-like formats, check it out: nitropia.substack.com/p/the-lazy-n...

who could've foreseen the paranoid breakdown of our social fabric taking such a dark turn

to me the most beautiful phrase in the english language is "in-context learning"

what happens when a sidewalk fortune teller performs ego death on stage during an improv occult play? one of the greatest disaster stories of our time! New on The Ick: a story from @joetforhire.com that smashes the gas and doesn't let up www.emilybynight.com/p/the-idiots...

berduck tier bit. love to see it

does anyone know? @amandaaskell.bsky.social why Her?

cc @pfrazee.com the pressure campaign has begun!

transhumanism is a humanism

if you are wondering what the 'dark forest' theory of internet is:

Blue sky is great but it is a little wide open. everybody's trying to fight for air dominance. we need a little cover, a shadow space, an UNDERGROUND. without an underground, the city is but a facsimile of itself. without the street how will we find uses for things? We Need Group Chats ASAP!

banger post, co-sign everything, in fact co-polished everything in a place that should've been on bsky

in honor of the holiday, here's a little polemic i wrote, on the sublimation of the global brain from the limbic system (nation state) to the neocortex (something else) . it's called "towards atmospheric supergovernance." enjoy! nitropia.substack.com/p/towards-at...
