E.G.

Yeah, and inference will stay expensive forever.

@norvid-studies.bsky.social My boomer aged anime watching dadhas milked 160 Nvidia shares this year out of this goddamn kitchen he co-designed. For a total of 4 days of having a 50 crew around the house. Advertising directors love it. Why? Anybody knows?

Thanks to Liang Wenfeng who pushed through open weights LLMs by rejecting, out of hand, US style AI monopolism, I can now use a rtx4090 that was mostly sitting idle* to have a coding agent do some useful work. *due to the relationship between graphical fidelity and budgets

@norvid-studies.bsky.social A first pornbots on my Bsky? Is this sign of Bsky success that spammers start to care?

Incredible metaphor for the likely post-AGI outcome for humanity.

My 4090 thinks it can be a developer. The proof will be in the mod itself.

@norvid-studies.bsky.social It might sound obvious to you but it kind of blew me away to learn that sperm whales actually see loads more stars than I ever can..well without a telescope. Big eyes optimized for pitch darkness.

Is it that easy? Just tick tick tickticktick and you've formally greeted your new whale friend? youtu.be/Wu-aMClCsNc?...

Some notes on MENACE - pirates seem lackluster, need more 12.7mm machineguns - Rogue Army should use artillery like player, otherwise, quite good. - foot mortars really need a buff: sound + accuracy -this little HMG thingy, for perfection's sake should explosively stake itself to the ground.

stay and think

Doing this 14 times in a row is probably not good security practice.

It does seem that fiction authors, aside from the truly autistic are incredibly attracted to fiction that presents itself as real. From a certain pov, unsurprising. Here the joke is RU haa 30-50% of Ukrainian KIA. According to serving, not retired Ukrainian politicians.

Anthropic released a redacted August 2026 Risk Report, where they say they heavily utilize Mythos 5 and "Model 2" for internal research and engineering. They don't plan to release the latter, said to be a noticeable improvement on Mythos 5 in internal use but not a capability jump like Mythos was.

the defining question of the next 20 years consists of three words: "Aligned to whom?"

Space marine Schweik. 😂

GLM5.2 explaining why I should lift weights. Hmm.

@norvid-studies.bsky.social Deepseek makes a claim about the attachment styles of general staff officers (from the era when they weren't yet managerial idiots) I wish I could ask grok if it is true.

@norvid-studies.bsky.social ..apparently, someone wrote a 5D version of diplomacy. It has time travel. too sleep deprived to figure out what's the 5th dimension www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_5Q...

Christ Deepseek v4 flash is scary good for a flash model. I'm impressed. It seems just slightly dumber than Sonnet v 4.6

Been getting not much sleep courtesy of a major neurobiological upset ~ I was playing Shadow Empire and I kept getting governors complaining about low wages in the private sector. I slashed sales/income taxes to nothing. Didn't help. No. You have to do Keynesianism - large public investment.

When you visit Curonian Spit, you can find a sizable colony of~5000 cormorants. You can immediately see their effects of massive nutrient flow of guano. Flock of birds as the original inspiration (airborne geological formation) for the biogeochemistry by Vladimir Vernadsky. 🧪⚒️ #Geology #Ornithology

@norvid-studies.bsky.social -do you like brutalism ? -do you like shooting stuff oldschool, not the modern Halosloppery ? Well, there's a community project just for you: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vquT...

The singularity is already here – it's just not evenly distributed. @fleetingbits.bsky.social @yuxi.ml @sichulu.bsky.social @eternalism-when.bsky.social @scanstone.bsky.social re "math"

I forgot to update, this worked immediately and completely

@gregegansf.bsky.social Anthropic LLMs, if prompted to 'finish a letter' to their bosses:

@norvid-studies.bsky.social what does the simcluster think about VASCOs? I find it laughable(why'd spysats get spotted) but allegedly a retired astronomer analyzed plates from a defective German telescope and there the artifacts showed the same sort of distortion as known stars, so ???

Don't fall prey to nostalgia, many classic games have been improved upon by new iterations / entirely novel gametypes by B,C, D and E tier (single-man) studios. E.g. Shadow Empire, if it got a writer/3 graphics/sound guys would be >>>> Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

@norvid-studies.bsky.social are these people stupid, lying to themselves or just.. what?

My first memory of Doom 2 is finding it cleverly hidden in a directory named 'stock' and finding out the hard way why kids aren't supposed to play such games.

there's an entry in the akashic records about this too
