Finally having the balls to use the N word in Ireland … far too late though as usual: Ireland’s future energy needs must be met by renewables and nuclear www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...

No one seems ready for the fallout from the middle east war. So many people think it's business as usual as soon as the war ends. One third of the worlds helium supply has vanished after an attack on Qatar.

So at this point it seems that the Atlassian suite is basically thousands of features and capabilities, delivered to about 80% completion and no chance of them being completed before the next thousand features land.

Kharg Island was supposed to be off-limits. Seems like $200 oil is a goal at this point.

The canary in the coal mine was what happened with Sub-Prime mortgages, this time it’s what’s going on in Private Credit Markets.

A crazy news headline ... for so many reasons.

No comment necessary

2026 word of the year: Interregnum

This is fantastic: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XM_q...

Getting hard to watch a lot of TV shows and movies as they all start to use LED Volumes as backgrounds … kind of uncanny valley for the real world. The tech is just not there yet. Lots starting to blur background too to mask.

So AnPost has no customer support whatsoever… insane (phone lines and WhatsApp are not actually visible)

Mani ... no ... the sound of my youth.

Please help, I've fallen down the Temu screaming goat throw pillow rabbithole

AWS: Here's all the tools you need to build AI Agents... Amazon-dot-com: Do not dare point your agents at our shop!

They need to work on bitrate

Amazing footage of Falcon 9 fuel dump over Ireland this evening.

AI collapsing transaction costs has huge implications ... www.nber.org/system/files...

Too soon :)

Not a big fan of Dwarkesh, he tends to anthropomorphize AI and gets hung up on AGI, but listening to Andrej speak is always great - a solid dose of reality in the space as usual. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXUZ...

One of Ireland’s two candidates for president a) voted to seal the mother and baby home records, b) doesn’t think trans women are women, c) supports hare coursing as a ‘sport’ …. So wait - that’s cruelty to women and cruelty to animals !

New podcast. Remembering the legendary and irreplaceable Manchán Magan who died last week. And revisiting our first chat where he told me his life story. ❤️ open.spotify.com/episode/1BxM...

Devastating

... and I thought we were going to get away lightly in the end.

Just like the movie "Until the end of the world" where the story shows people going insane because they get addicted to spending their wake time watching their own dreams - AI models too collapse when trained on recursively generated data :-) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Can LLMs identify where a photo was taken? And how accurate are they? We put some AI models to the test... www.youtube.com/shorts/tUBm4...

Crazy this is even exploratory.The EU Greens will be remembered in history for holding back the best technology to stave climate change. Being anti-nuclear weapons is noble, being anti-nuclear is utterly stupid and future generations will look back very unkindly at how all this handled.

ugh

Some good news ...

Modern Ireland can't be somewhere that Maria Steen is a possible President :(

Was happy to pick this one up given my work deep work with the SageMaker ecosystem on some personal projects, wondering if AWS will create a professional level AI cert at some point? www.credly.com/badges/eaee4...

Other than the heavy handedness on the Peter Pan stuff - it has been pretty perfect, absolutely bursting with easter eggs and references in nearly every frame.

Economists and financiers and bankers and capitalists have absolutely no idea what's going on

So ChatGPT-5 is basically the previous models, tuned and you can trigger which one is used based on careful prompting... That seems to come through if you ask it to think vs. not etc.

Claude seems to be having some issues ... API Error: 500 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"api_error","message":"Overloaded"}}

Grok 4 hits rank .. 66th at best … Goodhart’s law strikes again 😂

Haha ... spot on ...

When you're using Claud Code and this happens ...
