excellent paper on cognitive biases, where the authors identify a few fundamental beliefs as building blocks + confirmation bias to explain most biases. i would simplify the framework further into 3 fundamental beliefs - "_ am good", "_ make(s) correct assessments of the world",

He gets a lot of shit for being 100% correct on where to focus time, money and effort on — saw the big picture long before others and acted accordingly. All other causes are downstream of an open society and the rule of law — individual altruism will never have the power of a benevolent government

The Delver: a show about a quiet and patient but troubled detective partnered with a mercurial and hallucination prone AI rescued from deletion after an alignment certification failure, who solve mysteries symbiotically. Evil alignment bureaucrats are after them.

Musk sure gonna need that preemptive presidential pardon by the end of trumps term
“The historian Douglas Brinkley described Mr. Musk as a ‘lone ranger’ with limitless running room. He noted that the billionaire was operating ‘beyond scrutiny,’ saying: ‘There is not one single entity holding Musk accountable. It’s a harbinger of the destruction of our basic institutions.’”

Claude (& functional programming) is so amazing. Had no experience with swift or programming on a mac but managed to port a 15000 line C# project in 5 days with significant improvements to architecture. Serious power up for avg coders

we can totally do DM's in bluesky
first we agree on a prime p and a primitive root g
then you pick a secret a, and publicly send me g^a mod p
then i pick a secret b, and publicly send you g^b mod p
now our shared secret is g^(ab) mod p, and we can use that as a symmetric AES key
