That's not true. I believe firmly the American taxpayer and government is responsible for the lives of every single person in the world.

That sounds like a great idea. What kind of prompt do you use?

We really need to bring back corporal punishment, both for petty crimes and white collar crimes. The prison sentences don't make sense for the petty crimes, and the fines don't make sense for the white collar crimes. We need to le

Really glad they confirmed this, about 5 years after I was forced to take one at threat of job loss despite 1) already having had natural Covid and 2) working a fully remote job. But better late than never I suppose.

I highly doubt these figures. Grok is tightly integrated into twitter (sorry X.com) which had over 600 million DAU in 2025 and is probably much higher now. My guess is most of Grok's usage is actually "internal" and related t

Websites like Finnrick provide testing for gray market research peptides (including tirzepatide and retatrutide). There are no direct links to shops, etc., but you can at least see the current state of things, both good and bad. Cremieux is

I can say the things I like, I like the same or even more (higher sex drive is one noted example). I can sit and program for hours now without thinking about other things. I assume this is what people who took Ritalin felt. I do notice it m

Some downsides: 1. They make you stop eating, which for most of human history kills you. 2. They are a life-long treatment and kind of expensive unless you go gray market. 3. Gastrointestinal issues especially when titrating up.

GRAY market is way undercounted in peptide use. Go to the gym and there's like 25% of the people there taking gray market peptides (some for weight, some for injury repair, etc)

I have to exercise and go to the gym for life already?

Gray market peptides are excellent. You can do you own independent lab testing, buy with a group who's testing, or buy from a reputable vendor who pre-tests before sales. Even after all that it comes down to like $50 a month at the hig

It's not just anecdotes. Eli Lilly is actively in trials with a glp-1 peptide brenipatide for treatment for certain kinds of addictions, such as alcohol, smoking and opioid addictions.

Nobody forced anthropic to go on a media blitz loudly proclaiming the dangers their new AI model. Serves them right honestly.

Access to everything every American company feeds into the AI is well worth it to the CCP.

I was getting a fat raise every year. I didn't think I needed it from a first principle.

Between AI and H1b, it might be too late.

I've been mostly resistant to unionization for my whole career, but I think now is the right time. Between AI and H1B, the pool of jobs available for engineers is getting smaller and smaller, especially at the low end. When you destroy

It's true. We're getting the worst possible outcome. Police state surveillance that tolerates nearly every level of criminality. Anarcho-tyranny.

I built a new computer with lots of RAM and a nice NVMe drive about a year ago, and I feel like I hit the jackpot with timing. But just like a low-interest rate mortgage, I'm going to be stuck with this thing for a long time, it seems.

Census data is extremely powerful. It's why some states lost house seats and why some gained house seats. It must therefore be maximally transparent. Do you want president Trump or palantir to decide on the "noise infusion" a

You and I like Claude because it's the best for coding but the normies love chatGPT. ChatGPT has a huge market target.

Cult members regularly seek out negative sentiment for the cult. Makes sense.

As an investor it's really important for me to see this kind of bearish sentiment widely. It's actually a positive for the stock in my opinion, not a negative.

Their dad smuggled cocaine. That was the secret that took about 4,000 words to reach. Entertaining article, but boy what a trudge.

It's a really cool feature but what is a scenario when your average programmer needs such sandboxing?

I've never seen a technology hated as much as AI currently is outside of tech. However, most people aren't moralizing about it, they just hate it. Turns out you can have strong opinions about things without it being an issue of mo

I think many of us actually have a moral stance on AI, it's just that it's somewhat similar to our moral stance on cars, power tools, heavy machinery, the loom, etc.
