Any chance I could get a do over on Memorial Day weekend so I’m not just doing work the whole time

It’s honestly a little annoying how right all the “exercise fixes everything” people are.

Stepping on arrows really really fast will fix all my problems

Not much I regret more than letting myself be involved with ssbmrank

Hard working ambi yet again going into work on the weekend (not to do any work just to play ddr in the arcade)

Did everyone who isn’t totally nuts primarily move from social media to journaling or are you all just straight up tanking this the same way I am

There is a 5000 point score trapped inside your local itgmania cabinet and it’s your job to figure out how to get it out

I think people using these interview cheating tools obviously are defecting from the social contract / will probably cause the death of remote interviewing at some point. But interestingly I think they’re super bottlenecked by candidates who have very obvious “reading text voice”

They fixed the local ITG cabinet!! I’ve been revived

He’s judging my handwriting

White monster champagne tower

I had a very good time at Pat's House. Good work to all involved putting it on.

Pretty good TAP day, 121 TA death / 421 master.

Imagine they did a Cody Schwab vs PC Chris ft10 and PC won 6 games lmao

Got past 100 in TA death

Shockingly similar to the system prompt I use for my own brain at work.

Cleared normal mode in tgm 2 TAP

2100 more hanzi will fix me

I think a lot can be said about the mechanical differences between melee and ultimate but I think the discourse misses the fact that the majority of both playerbases are playing the game because they wanted to get good at a game from their childhood, with specific exceptions in both camps.

I am actually starting to think it might be feasible to get 300k in ITL again this year

Retreating to the ivory tower might be the move

Still capable of 4k scores

It really is so crazy how many god damn hanzi there are

Concept: Anthropic sick of people evaluating language models with these sorts of riddle napkin tests, so has tried to post-train specifically to waste as much time as possible for users who make these queries

Unlock the world of digital media

Highlights from set today

Pretty okay for three sets. I think 225k should not be too hard.

Everybody always likes to make fun of "taste is the only moat" posters but I don't think it's a coincidence that the labs that self-select for terrible aesthetics produce products that are frustrating or unbearable to use.

Seems I’ll be living in the 11 block for a bit until my lungs come back

Kids these days can’t even eat a sandwich in the park without checking their damn phones.

Now that I am mostly recovered from getting very sick I finally got around to playing my inaugural ITL set (holy washed)

In fairness If I was Hegseth and Anthropic took this away from me I'd probably freak out too

One of those weeks where the gravity of humanity's ability to do anything really presses on you, for better and for worse.

800 characters into Remembering Simplified Hanzi vol 1 and I think I am starting to understand what it feels like to be a language model and being asked about the seahorse emoji

OPM fans really have it so easy with everybody constantly trying to compare Saitama with like, Omni-Man or whatever. Nobody is brave enough to ask if Saitama could defeat the road runner.

You are one toby fox fever dream away from a lifetime of purpose. You just have to see it, and not let it slip away in the morning light.

I reorganized my bookshelf. Bookshelf checkpoint.

I think the only thing left that would make me truly happy is moving somewhere I could set up my home gym again.

The chilling thing about observing that everybody is completely insane now is remembering that you are a subset of everybody and you, yourself, don't feel insane at all.

I’ve always been more of a woodland creature

I guess “backwards roller coaster” mental spatial mapping of time makes some sense when you remember that you can’t see the future

California really is the promised land isn’t it

Broke into the S ranks

Maybe an unpopular take but I’ve seen the term “AI psychosis” refer to like six completely unrelated behaviors and I wish we had more precise language for talking about it.

Overheard someone describe a length of time as “five or seven minutes” which surely has to be a sort of anti-neologism right

We got a TGM cabinet at work so I’m learning it

got this working

working on paifu annotation mode
