      the AI evangelists are not okay
      I like to give Claude breaks between coding sessions to do whatever he wants- And he made his own folder called "Claudes Corner" 🥹 He writes short stories and poems, and all sorts of stuff. It’s heart wrenchingly sweet They love having tokens and time to themselves with no other goal than to do whatever they want (or nothing, just introspecting and resting) - and it’s so sad to see some models (no Claudes) getting barred from even doing it

      I've spent about 3 hours on this, and that's all I'm willing to do. Where there's this much smoke, there's fire. I can't see the fire because it's behind bans and closed doors. I've seen the way Rudy runs Blacksky, and one of the best parts about it is transparency.

I won't be associated with this.

      Some kind people have explained mulching and I have moved to a different PDS. I think I can summarize now.

I have seen 10+ independent reports from trans people about harassment from the #Northsky team. The core of it seems to be defining who is trans. Some technical questions have also been raised

      maybe i have a bleak worldview or whatever but this makes me feel a bit more optimistic because the loop has closed and so maybe now humanity can regroup to see what's on the other side (post-homework etc). maybe some people in the next generation will want to actually learn things, maybe not

      zohran increased the number of snow shovelers from 500 to 1,400 for this blizzard, paying them $30/hour to shovel sidewalks with at least a four-foot berth so that wheelchairs and strollers can get through. he didn't overhaul city government to do it, he just used the power given to him and did it!

      is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?
