Social media + engagement algorithms = societal cancer.

Why is everyone so comically pessimistic about this. Have you guys not seen the rate of progress of these models? Do you not realize that we have HITL RSI making these things even better as time goes on?

The stuff I can do with Astra that Sol couldn't do at all is wild and it's not even coding related. Dario et al are not hitting any sort of make believe wall. They're seeing how fast things are progressing and are legitimately alarmed.

An incredible stain on the history of the US.

I'd trust thieves with my data over Meta because thieves can do less harm with it.

This is a great idea!

I worked there for years. I assure you, based on my experience, that there are a lot of dumb people there making > $500k/year.

Create your own protocol. I created a "wind down session" protocol my agents use that takes detailed notes in a "next_session_prompt.md" file that covers what was done this session, what is still open, and where they need to pick up the next session.

You can refine the protocol as you realize what's working and what isn't. I've been using that for months and it rarely drops important things now.

Opus 4.8 decided to code up its own version of the SwiftUI rendering engine for iOS when I asked it to change a swipe gesture. I left the computer for several hours, came back, noticed it still wasn't done, noticed it had alarmingly burned through my weekly tokens, and had to stop it from continuing.

"You're right. What I did was overkill and I should have just used iOS's built-in rendering engine. Noted for next time."

Apple has historically been able to keep prices the same even when everyone expected them to increase. Not a great sign that even Apple, with supply/pricing usually locked up years in advance, has to raise prices.

How does OpenAI plan to be profitable?

This is what I suspected. Wang was a generationally bad hire.

He has Meta SWEs making $250k+/year labeling data in AAI. He has exactly one move and it's this: https://i.imgflip.com/atotpp.jpg

They tell you to order whatever you want, then surprise you with a bill at the end?

"Wife is on the plane. Guy had a speaker named bomb. He just confessed to it. He said he named it forever ago and forgot about it. He’s 16 years old. Wife’s friend is sitting next to him as they are questioning him."

I was trying to make electrical contacts that didn't dissolve within minutes when charged with a little bit of sweat on them.

Learned about HEAs (can't remember where), saw some fantastic material properties (rather high yield strengths, solid elastic modulus), and was pleasantly surprised at how much electrolytic corrosion they could resist.

Then one of our money people got a quote from the vendor to see how much it would cost to put it in our product, laughed, and said, "Back to the drawing board you go!" I think it was something like 20x more expensive than a copper alloy contact.

And now we know why Steve Zadesky left the Titan program and why the Titan program was ultimately shut down. Ive has no idea how to design a car.

It looks like a car by someone who used to design consumer electronics and spent only a cursory amount of time understanding automotive history, design, aesthetics, etc.

Long live the Ivesmobile.

The incentives at Meta are all wrong, so they will forever spin their wheels trying to latch onto something the next big thing while they continue to simply be a social media company.

I did some work with HEAs, specifically Paliney-6 and Paliney-7, and was pretty blown away by two things:

1. Material properties

2. Cost.

Ketamine, sleep deprivation, and tweeting aren't a good legal strategy?

The correction question is: what isn't that task doing?

In the midst of their 4th straight year of layoffs with another looming 20% cut coming, I'm guessing Meta employees are a tiny but suspicious.

Ternus had essentially nothing to do with Apple silicon. That's all Srouji and his team.

Ternus is not a hardware genius. He's a hardware engineer that rose through the ranks at Apple because, from what I've heard from Apple hardware engineers, Dan Riccio liked him "like a son."

Reminds me of this: https://i.imgur.com/CQr1WOM.png

I saw that, but it would be good to hear it straight from Netanyahu himself.

I'm specifically referring to the attacks on Iran that started this mess ~6 weeks ago. If the US and Iran agree, but Israel decides to continue bombing campaigns, then this ceasefire will be very short-lived.

Just wait until Sir Jony Ive's unapologetically AI hardware products that cost too much, do too little, and also flop.

I saw a CFMT PT and they addressed two things for me:

1. Laterally sheared and rotated vertebrae in my neck that were causing compression and tension on nerves in my neck

2. Elevated first rib, which was also compressing and tensioning the nerves.

I was incredibly skeptical that PT would fix it even though I was sure it was related to my neck/shoulder. After a few sessions of working to push my first rib back down to where it was supposed to be and also press (quite hard) on my neck vertebrae to move them back into a normal position, the tinnitus went from a 5/10 to a 2/10.

The problem I had was getting the rib and vertebrae to stay put. They would, as a result of lifting things or sleeping funny, slowly start to revert to their original positions causing the tinnitus to get louder again. The PT gave me several exercises to help strengthen muscles to keep everything in place.

If you have one in your area, I'd recommend seeing a PT that has their CFMT from IPA. It's a pretty specific form of PT that looks for deeper root causes of issues and that's the PT that was finally able to help me figure out and resolve mine.

TMJ disorders are linked to tinnitus because of the nerves that run near it. In my case, if I force an underbite I can make both of my ears ring but I don't have any TMJ issues.

There are some physical therapists (also dentists) that focus on maxillofacial dysfunction and TMJ disorders, so that's an avenue to go down as well.

The other two common reasons for tinnitus:

* Hearing damage (gunshots, explosions, etc.) and those are not reversible as of yet

* Ototoxic drugs. When I last did research on it it years ago, like hearing damage from gunshots, was also irreversible.
