@timheuer Congratulations! Enjoy the time to do the things that make you the happiest.
a smarter alternative to "always use plan mode": always frame your task as a question, so that the model is invited to push back and rate the quality of the idea/suggest alternatives, rather than blindly execute what you SAID to do (which is often not precisely what you MEANT) literally just appending "?" to the end of your prompt often does it
@matvelloso @trengriffin Uhh … Arthur C Clarke was a fiction novelist. He didn’t promise us anything except some excellent stories.
Always remember that when an LLM prints the beginning of a text, it has no idea what the end will be. Therefore, when it says "The answer is yes, and this is why:" the text after "why" would most likely be a very elaborate lie combined with gaslighting in case "yes" was the wrong answer.
Okay here's my argument for exactly how I think the "AI uses a bottle of water" statistic looks like it was miscalculated. It's a little in the weeds. Link below
Is there way on iOS to automatically hide notifications that begin with “A gunman”…?
What happens when you post a real Monet and say it’s AI? The coolest art social experiment I’ve seen in a while. Thank you @SHL0MS
@Mark_Graph That seems like an invocation of the No True Scotsman fallacy to me. Nonetheless the right measure to chart would be retail dollars spent per KWh consumed at home. I’d be interested to see those data if it existed (which I doubt, since all-home consumption isn’t tracked AFAIK)
I have not laughed this hard in a very long time. Hang up your meeting and listen to this 🤣🤣🤣 “DIRECTIONALLY DIRECTIONALLY VERY BAD” 🎵
The Sam Altman and @miramurati texts from the day he got fired from @OpenAI in 2023 just became evidence in the @elonmusk v. @sama trial. It felt like a meaningful moment in AI history, so I turned it into a musical. The lyrics are the texts.
@AndyMasley Solar radiation of course. It’s right there in the name!
This is a must-read for anyone concerned about the expanding lawlessness of the USA. (Gift link.) nytimes.com/2026/05/01/opi…
It’s been a tough stretch with GitHub availability. The feedback isn’t wrong. People depend on us, and we haven’t met that bar. Just know there are humans on the other side of this, reading all your comments and working as hard as we can to improve it. github.blog/news-insights/…
Why the weird discontinuities at the :00 and :30 times? Physiology doesn’t care about clocks, so is it an artefact of training?
The 2-hour marathon was this generation's 4-minute mile. People debated whether human physiology could do it. The once-inconceivable achievement was broken today not by one runner, but two! Sabastian Sawe just ran 1:59:30 in London.
Four photos of Wimbledon’s Centre Court show how tennis has shifted: from grass worn across the whole court (serve-and-volley era) to damage almost only at the baseline today. A slower, power-driven game played from the back. The 1970 picture (top left) shows the grass played to a pulp all over the court, from baseline to net. In 1980 (top right), turf damage is visible in a T-shaped zone beyond the baseline. This damage to “volley valley” largely evaporates by 2005 (bottom left). By 2023 (bottom right), the service boxes appear entirely untouched, with only the baseline area showing wear and tear. Source: bigthink.com/strange-maps/d…
