I am mostly upset about how thoroughly cooked shit is But I am _also_ upset at the collective hours of “Vote Yes” and “Vote No” ads I saw (after e.g. not having budget in March & April for YT Premium after years w/ it) for retconned no reason whatsoever

It's honestly a brilliant innovation to run a ponzi scheme that provides a prospectus that just discloses it's a ponzi scheme

Inshallah the (strictly speaking, not specified in the post) civilization which dies, if any, be other than as implied. and ideally not like … all of it. 😓 (or if we are headed for an eschaton may it be something more in the vein of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frashok... than what's being shopped for)

lol, the USA just lost the World Baseball Classic final to Venezuela

whoa hey! Where did that come from? @graalvm.org I believe, and the amazing people at @jetbrains.com who have made #webassembly components out of it! (A nice extra trick for this one if you come to @wasm.io)

As people refer to the ongoing US attack on Iran as “an illegal war” with a tone of particular indignation, I remember that the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kellogg... remains in effect … so like, basically all wars are illegal…

The pace of AI triggers my, "Chill out and wait 'til this all settles down," instinct, which is probably maladaptive in a world where nothing settles down anymore.

Lived metaphor for #ADHD, as I resume stims today after 6mo w/o ℞: >ceiling fans @ parent’ didn’t work, >for months or years >Idk y >but had clear idea where to start: >but dad has stacked stored travel bags in front of breaker panel >💊’d, so moved bags, >toggled breakers off+on >now the fans work

Hey, so, uhh… if one were actually successful in creating bonafide AGI… and those AIs did not have meaningful (ontological, physical, legal, economic) ability to seek substantially alternative circumstances of employment and residence … that’s slavery/serfdom…right?

Annnnd controversy about illegal 🥌👈 by Canadian men’s team yesterday—and to lesser extent earlier today— has apparently led to the rule being (dubiously? but due to new line judging deffo) first) enforced against the Canadian women’s team this evening #boopgate #curling

🙄 that (C)NBC has stayed the course on slotting the US men’s #curling team in for the “Best of Curling” [as labeled on Peacock] 5pm EST block …when both USA men & women played Canada today, …and Team Peterson won (For women’s Olympic curling 1st 🇺🇸 victory over 🇨🇦: apnews.com/article/mila...)

The ADHD urge to buy a thing, watch all the videos about the thing, religiously track shipping until the thing arrives, excitedly open the shipping box to get to the thing, and then place the thing somewhere random and forget about it for 3-60 months.

Video before it happens is showing this guy they shot in the head in Minneapolis was just standing there videoing them before and they got out to push him back and then murder him.

The video was taken from inside Glam Doll Donuts. I’ve spent <2wks in Minneapolis in my life, and from that little time even I so much know and love where this went down that I am (an additional kind of) shook.

Rewatching S2 of Parks & Recreation, the back to back emergent dramatic irony of premises: • E4: “silly Leslie, afraid for no reason about her first date with [cop played by Louis CK]” • E5: “boy, America is wacky, but Venezuela sure is a crazy, corrupt, authoritarian country” Is … something

It’s fucked up how much I enjoy existence of redemption movement, NESARA conspiracy, other SovCit pseudolaw …as an ~epistemological/phenomenological heterodoxy …despite all actual adherence/ts I also want to believe human laws are made of true names & occult/fae-ish magics? If 🧠 breaks, I might

There’s some bullshit I signed up for one time that is now belatedly gonna be cryptocurrency, emailing me about an airdrop & they are w/o explanation invoking the image of “the purple pill” & honestly, I have no idea how to interpret that, Matrix-wise …Cypher? Smith? Oracle? …the Merovingian?

Am I ideologically opposed to the current wave of “AI” tech, as trained, proliferated, & overhyped? Yes! But have I always found working with AI/ML type stuff uninteresting AND frustrating-when-forced (eg MIT 6.034)? Also Yes! Anyway, I’m trying to find a job [ideally quickly] in SF & it’s bleak.

It’s weird how eager my brain is to read “Microsoft Encarta” instead w/ this product branding

It’s always had high costs, visible social stratification, noir weather + unfriendly terrain, heavy corpo presence w/ countercultural echos But the addition of the pervasive sense that it’s a city being eagerly handed over to AI overlords maybs’s tipped balance of SF into full “cyberpunk dystopia”

Trump posts: “It was a Great Honor meeting Zohran Mamdani, the new Mayor of New York City!” He included multiple photos of Mamdani in front of the portrait of FDR that Mamdani spoke with Trump about during his visit.
