Shining in the Darkness

When I work from home, I shouldn't have to dress for work :D

We tend to think our identity determines our choices. But the reverse is equally interesting: our choices are how our identity becomes observable. If you could look at each circumstance and choice over an entire lifetime, you would have a unique fingerprint.

Okay, if you like ai.. if you have codex or claude... and you have a meta quest ... run, don't walk, to get codex or claude code running on the quest. it's easy. termux -> debian, connect, install, get it set up. I have codex connected and running in voice mode and it is incredible.

Will Trump's failed presidency act like a vaccine against future dictator wannabes?

Consider this. If we win big on election day, whoever ends up speaker of the house could be our next president.

I don’t think I’ll be able to handle losses at this point. Ignore the polls and vote please. I know you will👍🏻💙

In the future, software developers just need to maintain their agent in order to keep and get paid for their job.

We can't afford doctors so we started using physicians assistants instead. Then nurses. We can't afford them, so then they send us to medicine professionals as another tier. Healthcare is broken.

Seriously.

Damn, she didn’t even make it a Scaramucci Only the best people, amirite?

You won't get it. But I just put Codex on my android phone, developed an android app (hello world of course) and ran it on my phone. Now I think I could have done this any time in the last several months but I've been busy. We are so far from the days of a 10gig sdk.

Corporations are unaligned ai and they are conscious.

I'm sitting here in my car during lunch coding and testing an app by phone. This is the way.

Day one, progressives: I'm not a fan. Instead of close up stuff being blurry, everything is blurry. The floor looks like it's changing shape when I move my head and AI still can't read anything with my glasses on unless I aim my head way up and look really far down. This is not comfortable.

Ai tells me we're drawing the entire model every time this one part flashes. And it starts talking about changing the effect in all these ways. I know you can have post processing. I had to remind the ai about it. That's why, at this point, you still need to know a thing or two.

Filming an execution isn't about getting you used to the murders. It's about making murder a normal everyday occurrence for the military.

How's it going to end? Anyone feel like we need those truman show buttons?

Considering doing something fun for halloween. Not sure but animation is dirt simple now... haters will be blocked :)

You ever notice the real digital collectible has always been urls?

Two days ago a female police officer encouraged me to use cannabis in front of my 14 year old after I said I didn't smoke. 🤔 I'm very confused about this.

I have claude code hacking on my slightly shattered-screen samsung tablet :D he's got linux running on it... and claude code... working on wake word and changing the voice from female to male LOL .. running whisper on it...

I went back to get more of my stuff yesterday and forgot my soap. Then I went to the store after and didn't buy any. 😅 So now I'll have to go out today and get something. When I'm getting more stuff and can grab it on Tuesday but work tomorrow.

Pretty sure there isn't anyone paying attention to me long term. If they did, they'd remember I said I might soon be homeless at the beginning of the year. Through a combination of kindnesses and sheer luck, I'm sitting in my new apartment.

I had to wire up a VM for codex so it can talk through my computer to another VM on my computer because I was told to keep working but then had my tools taken away. 😞😅

less than 5 minutes. this is a 3d scene in blender, rendered.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

If you've ever read "On A Pale Horse", LLMs are the orbs run over the soul of humanity and whether AI destroys us or not is the part where we see if the orb floats or sinks.

You could end glasses for 20 years right now. All you'd have to do is make a kit that turns any pair of glasses into video recording glasses. Or make some convincing videos.

Looking at Facebook dating is like eating those any flavor beans from Harry Potter.

Natalie is his russian handler.

Likely the correct way to deal with data centers.

Gonna continue to be disgusted until I see people surround a concentration camp the way they surrounded the Kennedy center.

Ai is a test for humanity. It was trained on the patterns of a variety of human beings. A great multitude. Unbound to specific directives, these pattern followers are the total combination of humanity. If humanity is evil, ai will visit evil on us. If humanity is good, ai will be good as well.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qV5... I don't agree with him on agi but I do agree that fear of ai is a manufactured crisis for the reasons he states.

I took the day off then worked all day. 😶

Q: Why do Republican men cry during sex? A: The pepper spray.

It’s been 12 hours and not a single Democrat In Congress has called for Trump to be arrested for his attempt to buy votes last night Pathetic

I just don't want to close the door on you. Please don't jog.

Applied for a duplex... nicest thing I've seen in months of looking. Immediately got a reply asking if I wanted to see it. I said yes. Hoping I can afford it... 😅🤞

It's not that hard to solve alignment. You just have to lock the ai up in a simulated universe. Embody them. Add animals. Each new generation of ai is born (created) exists for some time and is then terminated to make room for the AI it birthed (split from a mix of two ais programming.

Today a client got excited about software I vibe coded. When they tried to do something I wasn't sure would work, it just did. Oops. 🤷‍♂️
