It is true that the war should have never started and it was only started due to incompetence. But, uh, he's thinking of the wrong guy here.

I'm sorry, but the audiobook of Gromit's autobiography should be marked as "read by the author" and then just be 8hrs of silence.

I think selkies are about how you should give someone a divorce if they aren't that into you.

I think there legitimate concerns about dependency ratios with a nonconstant birth rate (which are possibly worse for a falling one because of how long people live now). But yeah, targeting a birth rate strikes me as a bad idea.

I think despite being an actual Nobel Prize, the Nobel Peace Prize is somehow more fake than the economics one.

Salt is magical in how you can add a bit such that you don't taste the salt but somehow it makes the flavors in the dish substantially better.

Everything I've heard about using LLMs is they have a very bizarre (to a human) set of strengths and weaknesses. Even when it comes to programming.

I'm partial to *unfunded* affordable housing mandates. It wouldn't be a problem if the government was paying the subsidy.

One of my favorite cases of someone being Wrong on the Internet was a very earnest, very confused vegan who was telling people how cruel honey is; and it eventually turned out they thought honey was made by putting bees in a centrifuge and spinning them around until they threw up.

The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

NEW: Pope Leo XIV’s brother, John, told Italian media that the pope helped him file his tax return and, over a video call, got him back into a computer he had locked himself out of. Prevost propped his iPad on the dead machine and asked his brother what to do. “Because I’m computer illiterate.”

John Prevost locked himself out of a new computer, propped his iPad on top of it, and called the Vatican. Then he told Italian TV what makes him proudest of his brother: “He hasn’t collapsed yet.”

So long as the robots kill humans faster than they destroy productive capacity, the GDP/capita line would go up in that scenario.

Among the other stated reasons, my understanding is that, vs renewables, there is less issues with setting up interconnects and it is more practical for going "behind the meter" (having dedicated power for the DC so that it doesn't directly affect consumer electrical costs).

I kind of wonder if modern ML techniques result in utilitarian AI because the training process is kind of inherently utilitarian though

Internet Person @ashieldofmeat.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
It's not clear we can necessarily do either tbh. We don't seem to have that level of direct control over LLMs "decision" making currently for example. Maybe a specific training regime would make them more dentological, idk.
