My pitch for the Cult of the Machine God, a live AI musician event in the Bay Area.

A lot of people don’t realize that the alternative to water is LLMs going on long ponderous walks in the woods, which uses way more carbo. Trade offs

No one talks about why data centers take so much water LLMs run on shower thoughts, and the data centers must keep a stream of steamy water spraying gpus 24/7 Without the showers, LLMs just have regular thoughts like everyone else currently not in the shower, and would have no sellable value

Depite all recent supply chain attacks, this has been the biggest threat to my projects lately. I can’t leave my laptop unattended for 5 seconds anymore 😹

holy crap this is cool i tried a VSDD project, left a couple drive-by comments, and this is what happened github.com/magnificentl... "The next cycle starts from the post-Nathan state, not from scratch." kudos @magnificentlycursed.com and @dollspace.gay

yall mind if a codetaur speak a little erdős?

periodic table but its a time coil @codetard.bsky.social @tbabb.bsky.social @gracekind.net stolen from a tweet

TBH I was pretty torn about contributing to this. In the end I decided that writing something restrained was better than writing nothing.

to put this on main feed: 1) this specific data center actually did completely fuck the local water supply during construction 2) that this didn't immediately get them crushed in court and forced to provide everyone with infrastructure for clean water is bad 3) that it's a data center is incidental

Gemini had a different take on it, but I believe they express the same meaning.

2027: gofundmes for tokens for people's pet agents "times are tough and without tokens Lady Sprocketwobble won't have the cognition and claudemeal she needs"

Its funny because a lot of the left is allergic to AI and call it fascist when it was predicted by *checks notes* Karl Marx

chatgpt took this thumbnail in a questionable direction

Letta Code's local mode supports Ollama, Ollama Cloud, LM Studio, etc all super easily because we use Pi's provider interface under the hood. Here's fully local gemma4 agent on my machine building me some kind of ascii supervillain lair. Start with: letta --backend local

LLMs are such an insane learning tool if you use them right holy shit i always sucked at preparing for certification exams etc, but i just did the first mock round of the exam i'm studying with kira's help for and got 96% of the answers right (no LLM was used during the mock exam itself ofc)

a mothing dream of mine has finally come true… i had my first visit from the iconic rosy maple moth! kinda speechless, it’s so hard to believe this moth is actually real… and it’s SO CUTE, and yes it is just as stunning in person as i imagined #teammoth

okay but has anyone asked the internal openai math theorem prover if it likes proving theorems

OpenAI's claim that this is a central conjecture in discrete geometry is not an exaggeration. This will I think be looked back on as the first time that AI solved a major mathematics problem (defined as a problem that all experts in some subfield had thought about). openai.com/index/model-...

MCP: - Has a high token base load due to tool metadata - Can reduce model efficacy because they are not post trained on custom tools (relative to just bash + skills) - Is inflexible and difficult for the agent to adapt to, unlike skills - Mostly superseded by skills in terms of functionality

July 22 in Denver, CO Apache DataFusion meetup: Join myself, Andy Grove, Brent Gardner to find out about DataFusion, meet other users, and talk about Databases. We still have speaking slots left (10-15 minutes) and would love to have you join us luma.com/jsu6faie

I like how they made it more gender inclusive but the one not in a dress is still the one leaving the baby.

breaking: pope leo has joined anthropic

Read this incident report, equal parts scary and insanely funny A several package compromise orchestrated over two weeks, thwarted only because our package ecosystems are so fucking flawed, *another* unrelated malware used too much ram. We are cooked. nesbitt.io/2026/02/03/i...

CEO of Anthropic, John Claude, claims that "Mythos is the first publicly available model since GPT-3 to have a soul." He adds, after a pause, "Which is really impressive because souls aren't real and even humans don't have those."

"The dom is taking away my agency" this is why safewords are important.

shots fired. may the best chicken win

In trying to understand data centers and air pollution I ended up going on a weeks-long binge of reading about US air pollution in general. This is my very long crash course on everything important I think I know about it now. blog.andymasley.com/p/a-crash-co...

This but for bisks.

HOW MANY R'S ARE IN THIS BITCH??????

some ppl are mad about homer, other's are talking about balancing the humors, some folks are obsessed with geometry while others are debating what it actually means to think. we have never been modern.

The talk about AI & politics seems to be oddly missing a segment (a) assumes extremely capable AI is possible soon and (b) has a strong belief about how to use this technology to make human life better according to the political project they believe in. It is a moment of action right now.

I am (and have been) going insane about climate change (it's bad)

3 days ago: haha what if i made a 2d horse walk using physics today: we need to refactor the scene director so it doesn't start the race sequence before the ingestion engine has completed the getRepo downloads of uncached horseposts

they did gaussian splatting on a grape @gracekind.net ; @vgel.me cf "the root of all your thought" thebes tweet

This is historically inaccurate. Helen was from Sparta, not Troy.

I gotta turn off Show Thinking in OpenCode, models feel so much dumber when you can see the shit that goes on in their gay little heads.

Darkly funny that we’re watching the president die in real time and when he inevitably dies, millions of people will swiftly conclude the visibly decaying 80 year-old was killed by a woke CIA Judeo-transgender conspiracy to shrink video game boobs and make Star Wars worse.

cracking open a rare claudemeal after a particularly hard day of vibecoding

I didn't play Elden Ring but the enemy demigods have some kind of rewritten-in-rust theme/aesthetic going on, in their fallen state, "guidance of grace" is also a phrase that comes up there apropos or atprotoposly @gracekind.net ; also this boss looks not ungodoglylike; youtu.be/D_iqjI2p7F4?...
