Today we ship Aspire 13! Why 13? It’s a number that’s bigger than 10 but less than 14.

It marks the start of a new chapter for the project. We’re expanding beyond .NET, bringing the same, code-centric experience to Python, JavaScript, and more.

I’m not saying there have been zero benefits — just that this tech is a tool, not a solution. Tools can be misused even if you go in knowing better.

Something I learned/realized recently is that homeopathic treatments can include ingredients that are not officially drugs but are commonly understood to have positive effects. So you can take things that are actual bullshit homeopathy and they just "slide in" something else they don't have to prove

Fantastic Four was very good. I also hope word gets out that you need 0 knowledge of Marvel going in. It’s essentially like read FF #1 back in 61. It feels like a new beginning in a way. But it’s also just a good standalone comic/hero movie with a great family dynamic.

Hey friends! I did a TEDx talk and it's now up on the TED Conferences YouTube. It's possibly the best and most important talk I've ever done.

I would ask that you watch it, and please SHARE it broadly and widely. Thank you! youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg #AI #Tech #TED

None of this happens under any scheme of degrowth or climate-driven austerity. There's only one way forward and it's to build the future.
“California is so far using forty per cent less natural gas to generate electricity than it did in 2023, which is the single most hopeful statistic I’ve seen in four decades of writing about the climate crisis.”

It’s so frustrating that there is this illusion that we are all 49%/49% right now. Us versus them, good versus bad, and it’s all because of the BS that is the electoral system. It’s very likely 70% versus 30% and we’re just not seeing representative government.There’s just no common sense right now
