I don't post very much on here — but I will be posting even less in the future, as I am deleting the app off the device I use most often. I will still have an account and I will still check in on BSky. Just, less frequently. Cheers.

BREAKING: Look at this. A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning. 30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF. Market dumped. The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours. Unusual.

not sure what to say about the OpenAI study about LLMs producing output that has no bearing to reality. i feel like people have been saying this for ages. it's not a revelation; it's a natural consequence of the architecture of a word token model. it's not even a "gotcha".
