Whoever this is is quite literally just hooking up Claude to a bsky account (not this one, but the original post it’s anonymously quoting)

PHP stands for Publicly-exploitable Home Page is this something

Christ if I was whooped this hard in public I would walk into the ocean (or Great Lake, I suppose) never to be seen again

The media will ask every Democrat to denounce Hassan piker repeatedly but will never ask Vance to denounce his literal Nazi mentor

We are ruled by people literally dumber than a 13 year old schoolyard bully

I've been working on this product for the past year and a half. Excited to see it ship!

Pre-nut psychosis is a well-documented fact of life, where the hell have you been?

“I bought this car before I knew how crazy he was” sticker on a Ford

A consequence of RLVR is that for simple tasks LLMs will generate fully useless tests that literally assert the code they wrote does what it does. These tests might still help them uncover random bugs, but they're terrible tests.

Heartbreak: Nature’s ozempic

Wisprflow is vibecoding for people who like leaving voice memos

Got a new google scholar notification, so I go check and find this very cool poem by Wang Jibing 王计兵, the recent Lu Xun prize winner, prefacing a PhD thesis on women migrant workers and the gig economy PhD students in all disciplines: more poems in theses please, we love to see them! ✨💫

Am I crazy or is one of these a Covid test

Holy shit! Those madmen! They did it!

Boy Throb, a viral boy band whose identity is wrapped up in the goal of getting a U.S. visa for vocalist Darshan Magdum, shared a video announcing that Magdum’s visa had finally been approved. https://wapo.st/4w4q6nq

I also often go to generative writing meetups, which are meetups where you sit and write to a prompt, which is a set of inspirational questions to get you started. Needless to say both of these terms have been somewhat corroded lately

Count Binface must be shitting his pants rn at the remote prospect he might actually win like imagine you created this novelty character for some good satire and then reality is surreal enough that you may actually be required to govern

someone in a fedora handed this to me on MUNI then immediately hopped off the bus ???

Do you think strippers have stress dreams where they’re accidentally wearing clothes onstage?

I ran an absolutely 100% human, zero AI-involvement at any stage passage of my writing through an "AI detector," curious if it could really tell human from AI work, and it said my own writing was "84% AI written" then asked I wanted to pay to have it "humanized." So there's that to keep in mind.

pancakes on the menu: how pedestrian hotcakes on the menu: do I dare dine like royalty today?

“Or”?

Arresting opposition activists on trumped up charges to take the fall for a self inflicted failure of the sitting government is classic authoritarian behavior

To be fair, I never did most of those things as a kid with autism. I had to wait until I was an adult with autism to do them.

My hot take is that green bubbles for Android users was one of the most blatant and successful anticompetitive acts of the past 50 years

Good on Hegseth for finally addressing the dire threat of British Lad tourism

Born to be a snippy, entertaining-if-problematic broadway diva, forced to be a fascist dictator. A talent wasted.

Jfc not iOS autocorrecting the word Ohlone to “phone”

There is a giant distinction between how Dems and Repubs approach gerrymandering. To Dems, it's evil but has to be done in response to other side doing it. To Repubs, it's good when Repubs do it (because it helps them) and evil when Dems do it (because it helps them).

These people hate democracy and they hate America

The thing about republicans is that they understand government as being about seizing as many levers of control as possible. They have no principles other than the accretion of power. The only reasonable thing to do is crush them however necessary: beat them at gerrymandering, expand the court

we’ve invented a new type of Posting that is too powerful. we’re working with industry partners to roll it out safely

AI bro culture is going to poison the word "intelligence" the same way crypto bro culture has poisoned the word "decentralized"

Imho "President Trump is weighing" carries as much weight as "Elon Musk says" in terms of predictive power of future events, they can both weigh or say whatever they want, you're grasping at seeds that haven't even been planted yet never mind their leaves at the bottom of a cup

This unique fantasy book has many twists and turns, while also keeping a sharp character focus. Spiritually, it reminds me most of The Magicians.

A crucial part of Project 2029 has to be performative trials and draconian sentencing for Trump administration officials up and down the organizational ladder. Treat all of them like Timothy McVeigh so that the gravity of their criminality and treason become enduring images in American history.

Being a guy who’s a powerlifter and also does reformer Pilates really gives you a front row seat to how fitness outfits and rituals are gender performance

I think “ai psychosis” is too broad of a term and we need to split it: - anthropomorphic ai psychosis: you think a chatbot is a person or a god - agent mania: code is no longer the bottleneck and you go insane trying to do as much as possible - executive ai psychosis: whatever Jensen Huang has
