denmark rocks bc theyll notice that only 80% of their population is currently laying in the grass in a park with a six pack of 8% beer reading a book while on a 3 hour lunch break from work making $50/hr selling croissants at a cafe called GOBBO or FLUUZ and their government will spring into action

The thing about the Diddy verdict and the budget bill is that you can and should take both of them seriously. Powerful men getting away with violence isn’t a distraction from Trump and his administration. It’s the same thing powered by the same rhetoric and logic of abuse

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Altman is using Studio Ghibli’s popularity very specifically to push users into OpenAI’s paid tiers, and presumably neither Ghibli the company nor its artists will be compensated in any way.

if i seem quiet during a date, it’s because i’m thinking about the time french composer erik satie wrote a play called “cancelled” and the play was cancelled after opening night because people saw the sign and didn’t show up.

something about walking along the simple symmetry of a paved road makes life feel complicated. something about walking among the complex tangle of a pathless woodland makes life feel simple.

imagine carving the oceans into landless nations. border buoys littering the rolling waters, struggling in tiny voices to hang names and loyalties on all that living motion. it seems ridiculous. with just a little more imagination, it seems equally ridiculous on land.

may compassion be extended to those of us for whom chaotic events create chaotic responses. may we learn to integrate the pattern of seeking safety by camouflaging ourselves in the chaos of our surroundings.

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

how simple doomsday would be if the mere act of not creating was enough to avoid it. how little we would have to worry about if the survival of the species was as simple as no longer demanding that our toys talk to us.
