iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Rivian is set to expand to a 2nd shift for producing the R2 which will increase deliveries heading into next year. It is projected to reach 155,000 vehicles next year. It could be a break out year for the EV maker. www.sec.gov/Archives/edg... #Rivian

Slate is expecting to start deliveries this month as well. That is a super affordable electric pickup truck which strips all the modern electronics which drive up the price beyond reasonable affordability. www.prnewswire.com/news-release... #Slate #ev

This year global sales of gas cars dropped under 50% for the first time. That is an encouraging milestone. electrek.co/2026/10/05/g... #electricvehicles

The last one, so far, is basic ghost. Boo!

Here’s a wolf and moon light which I think looks great.

It was made over 6 years ago, so before generative AI. Given how the big Hollywood studios are merging and restricting the type of content being made, it would be great for artists to produce and publish on their own. Use the modern tools to their advantage and break away from big studios.

Jev started something. I created System 1 Arcade using Laya which was made with Python and took a while to load. I've now ported it to Go and it loads quickly and it leverages Accelerate and Metal on macOS. Now it is very fast with lower latency per decision. #jev github.com/brennanMKE/l...

Returning with this view was a perfect end to our day trip.

There were so many people there. I recommend making the trip. We went by ferry this time which was so scenic.

These interactive lights called Lumanoi were very cool. I want to make my own version. voria.com

The head of the Iron Giant was there, thanks to The Crucible.

Games like Civilization, Warcraft and Starcraft could be much more interesting in many ways. Based on the currently known units the agent run opponent could choose to rotate to another composition to counter yours. Individual units could also decide different tactics. #Warcraft #Starcraft

But why?! Surely we don't want agents playing video games for us! Of course, what this app does is allow you to point it to your custom endpoint for another System 1 model. Can you do better? And what if the NPCs in games could make decisions to make games less scripted? #Atari

Gemini 4 Pro benchmarks may be leaked and the costs are much lower than OpenAI and Anthropic. This race to reduce costs is pretty heated right now. Many are looking for more affordable models and this looks like a very good option. www.reddit.com/r/GeminiAI/c... #AI #Gemini

"Computers aren't the thing. They're the thing that gets us to the thing." - Joe MacMillan Joe is a fictional character from a great TV show. The quote still applies well today. It could also be used to frame AI. It is not the goal, it is just a tool.
