I think the cognitive load required to make something that conforms to your firms expectations will still require people regardless of how efficient these models are. Similar to how outsourcing your core product never really works

I agree the future is less concentrated tech talent

From GEB this is a good one: youtu.be/A41CITk85jk?...

My analogy is the filing cabinet is analogous to search (you have an index and you pick where to go)

Target recommendation is similar to a social media algorithm that shapes how you think and what you’re aware in an active manner.

It’s not directly about the bomb and is historical fiction but i loved The MANIAC which does touch on it and morality a lot.

I’ve heard Bomb Power is good

Israeli map showing all of southern Lebanon in red with yellow arrows pointing to north of the Litani river

The IDF just ordered the *entirety of south Lebanon* to be forcibly displaced.

They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.

The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.

A) It’s maybe the best named thing i’ve tried to make

B) We have a new kid so i will make almost no progress in the coming months at which point who knows

GitHub - pboueri/intentc: A compiler of intent A compiler of intent. Contribute to pboueri/intentc development by creating an account on GitHub.

Im trying to build this thing for real again 1 year later: github.com/pboueri/inte...

If specs are truth then you should be able to wipe and rebuild your codebase reproducibly with “small” deviations. I think this is where it lands - like Makefiles

Nothing to see, just very powerful pattern matching. www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/paper...

One of my senators (D) went on TV and framed the problem with Trump's decision to launch an unprovoked assault on another country as entirely about process. She agrees with the carnage, she just wishes she would have been consulted about it first. Sorry to be a bit bummed out by that, I guess.

Endorse - get the limit you need to not feel constrained and then walk back if youre way under

Thanks for sharing

One of the more interesting parts of the conversation is centered around this idea of when do we broadly acknowledge we are in a new regime and the old world is gone so that we can have new policy solutions.

If history is any guide that will take a generation

Permissioned Data Diary 2: Buckets The second in a series of posts building up a solution to permissioned data on atproto. We introduce buckets: a new protocol primitive for creating a shared social context.

new blog post on permissioned data in atproto! this one introduces "buckets", the protocol-level primitive for shared access control. I walk through two approaches that don't quite work and land on something that I think does

let me know your thoughts!

Pritzker executive order will aim to speed construction of nuclear power plants Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker vowed to sign an executive order aimed at speeding up construction of new nuclear reactors in the state.

We’re going nuclear, Illinois — and we’re prioritizing affordability, safety, and reliability.

If LLMs are a new medium it implies the ChatGPT presidency. Sorry i dont make the ruled

Soon

I think our economic system is way more indexed on social norms and relations than we care to admit.

The idea that we will purely profit maximize without regard to it i think is short sighted.

I do think agents provide a lot of cover to downsize for mismanaged companies though

Me, a rational consumer: i will only buy what has positive utility for me

Adman: ok sure buddy

When you become a new parent you become flabbergasted at how everyone buys the same stuff - particularly in a certain group with disposal income and an instagram account

Ads work and are the primary rev stream for tech.

phones do not spy on you with their microphone. do not worry. instead, what happens is that a vast and uninterpretable ensemble of artificial neural networks examines and integrates your subconscious until it can predict what you are going to say

This is the worst case scenario occurring at almost all turns.

- Tased and struck over misunderstanding
- Stays in jail for a year because of slow wheel of justice and ICE fears
- PD screws up in releasing him
- Border Patrol release catastrophically screwed up
- PD blows off missing persons report

I miss data.table. The most fluent + performant + extensible dataframe library i ever worked with.

Feels like all these spot features are being bolted on. Look forward to claude code v2 or whatever where the general shape is more cohesive

Practical Decentralization The point of decentralization is to guarantee the rights of individuals and communities on the Internet. Pulling that off is a balancing act between practicality and ideology.

New blogpost about atproto

It's not federation, it's not a p2p mesh. It's a secret third thing: practical.

What’s your theory as to why other than iOS surcharge? I can imagine:
1. Go touch grass
2. Allocate tokens to those that really want it
3. We have 500s and capacity problem please slow down
4. Need to keep the growth hacks for when they are needed
