I'm hearing about a 6.4 earthquake in the Gulf. Didn't feel it, but others did.

Potential Colorado Governor can't say how many people he's murdered. W.. T.. F..

Sounds about right

In IT, you learn to never have a single point of failure. It has never been more obvious that we are a civilzation that is over reliant on fossil fuels than right now. Industry, agriculture, transportation, EVERYTHING is suffering from a single point of failure.But let's not develop alternatives. 🙄

Total Philip K. Dick show. When all video cameras are easily hacked by deep fakes in real-time, what happens when your actual reality begins to fall apart.

My whole take on bonsai is that I love small intricate trees, but then I like to replant them in big pots and let them sing.

Inside us there are two wolves and we should really be aiming for zero wolves.

1286 words (26,722 total) on "Vajra Dawn", a novel about an advanced synthetic intelligence that guides the remnants of humanity through a vast, holoprinted generational-ship fleet while unraveling the mysteries of their 12,000-year journey and their ultimate destination. #DailyWords #amwriting

Well, I guess British actors will always find jobs playing Russians on American TV. #StarCity

Wow is right. Looks like he attempted to meet the press.

Why is it that the people who demonstrate the least compassion are creating and programming the AI humanoids we may soon share the planet with? Unsure if this is a rhetorical question or not.

I can't stop thinking about this: "If you're thinking of using AI to write me an email, just send me the prompt instead, then I know what you actually meant to say." So you just say "Tell Nick I need to move today's meeting to next week" instead of using an LLM to turn it into 100 words of crap.

Starting hurricane preparations early this year. I'm thinking that gaia is not particularly thrilled with our current manner of freeloading on this flying space rock and may wish to express an opinion.

"Experts, though, say the supply of sterile flies is too low." So, beyond the global appetite for oil, water, and food, now the next big problem is that we simply don't have enough flies.

Okay... Thanks for giving a thumbs up when the next administration wants these companies 100% nationalized. His biggest blunder yet?

I was torpified when I heard this.

📺 I am so done with remakes. There should be a standard copyright license that prohibits all remakes for 50 years thereafter and make it boilerplate. Seek new ideas!

From the randomly read department: "If an ordinary person has to spend twenty minutes planning a detailed prompt strategy just to convince the AI to sound like a normal person writing a three-sentence email, the tool didn't meet its main goal of saving time."

On odd synchronicities and extracting data from elsewhere, today I saw a sign in an Irish pub that read: "26+6=1" and I immediately knew what it meant and there is no rational reasoning for that.

*Brushes hands together* Well, that's that.

Greetings from Port Charlotte, FL

Welp, it's been nice having these computers but it's time to get back in the sea now. (See alt text for deeply alarming abstract of paper about AI-assisted self-modifying network worms …) https://arxiv.org/html/2606.03811v1

Um, sure 🤑

It's turtles all the way down.

I had quite a productive day of meditation and brainstorming and I now know the precise ending of my novel and a really fun way to get there. #amwriting

This tiny plant has produced *another* honking jalapeno #gardenlife

Entering a new phase of #writing wherein I wasn't sure that I'd ever get this far and what comes next has yet to emerge.

Of all the people to blame for the world's current problems, the Biden DOJ ranks remarkably high on that list. They had four years to do one thing and they failed.

Congrats everyone!

What could go wrong?

Good morning

As they do

I feel that perhaps all great writing accesses the integral aggregates of the metaphase typewriter in some nature. What that actually means nobody can confidently say.

LOL

I like to think of it as a "mystery quadrilateral parallelogram" rather than simply a box.

🚨 Pulitzer Prize for excellence in journalism incoming

"Why are people so negative about the economy?" Consider this. There are two possibilities: 1) He's right and my livelihood is screwed. Maybe not 18 months but soon. 2) He's full of shit, it won't happen, and AI is a giant bubble that will crash the economy. Why would I feel good about either?

My morning walk on (near) prehistoric earth

My practice of patient acceptance meets my own lack of creative energy this week. Not always but often I feel like it's best to wait for the flow to naturally regenerate than to push. #amwriting

The balance and counter-pushpull between entropy and negentropy appears to drive the Orgone/Serpent Energy that "powers all life". :boggles: -><- Hodge/Podge/Spin -><- www.quantamagazine.org/what-physica...

They think AI could be the remedy for the ancient, nameless dread that bosses experience every time they contemplate the fact that if they don't show up for work, everything hums along fine; whereas if the *workers* don't show up, the whole enterprise collapses. 25/

The best pivot in the world to counter fossil fuel propaganda would be to stop saying 'solar power' and instead say shit like "yeah man, my car is running purely off power I tapped from a G-type main sequence star."
