Andrej Karpathy’s take on AI coding agents feels grounded. The industry’s chasing full autonomy when models still hallucinate too much.

Agents that churn out a thousand lines of code leave you either blindly trusting them or slogging through reviews. These tools should embrace their fallibility.

This does not look like “impartiality”. It looks like propaganda.

Reform, with 0.7% of all MPs, featured in 25% of BBC's recent 10pm news bulletins
Astonishingly, a party with 18 times as many MPs as Reform has received one-third less coverage on BBC News at 10.

When the history of the rise of fascism in the UK in the 2020s gets written, the complicity of the BBC will require a full volume of its own.
Here's how the real two-tier Britain works:
1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off.
2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵

Something we need to grasp is that Establishment power meant imperialism. Imperialism is a system of thought that sees upper class white men as the pinnacle of humanity, with a sacred duty to control the lives of others. What we now call the far right is an extension and revival of imperialism.
Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences?
Only one explanation now remains.
They do.
And it is what they want.

This comes as no surprise — fusion centers have little to no recorded public safety benefit and a record of surveillance abuse, reflexively treating protest and social justice as threats. Read more: techpolicy.press/californias-...

The Polish foreign minister, a writer and journalist who covered the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s, clearly knows a thing or two about a patiently-timed response.

Imagine if a referendum were held in which 52% of those who voted declared that the Earth was flat.

And that subsequently everyone in the UK was forced to behave as if the Earth was indeed flat, and all main parties said "Ok, flat it is. Evidence be damned."

That's Brexit.

France's President Macron has warned that abandoning Gaza and giving Israel a "free pass" will destroy the West's credibility. France is quietly in the process of creating a coalition to strip Israeli influence across Europe, the DGSE also needs to confront Mossad influence operations.

always bears repeating & boosting: in this environment, doing things slowly and well is a form of resistance
Using AI to do your work is Temu productivity. Do you want to buy the clean girl aesthetic of getting things done with the currency of global warming, anti-intellectualism, and the erosion of labor rights? Or do you want to get messy and actually learn things so you can do cool shit?
What we’re seeing is a collective move away from “plagiarism is a bad thing and you should feel bad if you do it” to “plagiarism is the future and if you don’t do it, you’ll fall behind”

I've had enough.

I'm fighting back against the Far Right.

Danny Rampling thought he could scare us into silence but I am going to countersue.

Help me take these nutcases to court.

Every little helps. A like and a share costs nothing at all.
