Upright: ingenuity, curiosity, refusing to accept “that’s just how it works.” Reversed: it worked before you touched it.
A balding man with green spectacles and a pointed goatee adjusts the Wheel of Fate with a screwdriver. His black Labrador watches beside a workbench holding loose gears, a twenty-sided die, and an apple.
The Tinkerer regards destiny as a promising first draft: something to inspect, question, and improve, preferably with a faithful dog nearby.

This is pretty funny too. Should I turn off "Contacts", or "Contacts", or maybe "Contacts", or "Contacts"? Nah, I'll turn off "Contacts", I bet that'll work.

Also no "-" for "Automation", nor a bunch of the other privacy/security lists. About ⅔-¾ of then seem to have them, the rest don't for reasons best know to some Apple PM; probably the problem is there's a separate PM for each panel and they didn't all read the memo.

And there's a "-" for files & full disk, but NOT for "contacts" so when your node MCP server reads the contacts SQLite file then it's just there forever I guess (unless I ask Claude to figure out what obscure command would delete it from the registry I guess)

If an LLM causes a centaur-bot to chainsaw a tree in a forest but there's noone there to hear it, does it still make a noise as it falls?

I think they re-assigned the guy who fucked up network security to instead focus on something safer: building demos for launch day for new products.

Copy/pasted my Anthropic interview transcript to a GPT temporary chat, and asked if from the answers it could guess who the interviewee was.

Way better than Opus 5 was, and pareto frontier for intelligence/cost despite the way higher per-token pricing because it's so token efficient.

Many thanks to whoever it was that voted for me. You’re wrong, I’m utterly uninfluential, but ty for the vote of confidence.

~12 million people in Ohio. So just since Sept 1st, just on TV, every man woman and child in Ohio has seen ~60 political ads...
Bar chart showing that Sept 1-Sept 17 406m ad impressions in Ohio from Republicans and 320m as impressions from Democrats across Cable and Broadcast TV.

Getting good usage from github.com/hughescr/utraque Claude Max and Codex subscriptions being used side-by-side in Claude Code (along with Deepseek). The "cache create" stats are messed up for gpt&deepseek models, but otherwise works really nicely.

49.29% — 168,469,860 people across 36 2M+MSAs (plus San Jose which is 1.98M) so about half the normal people live there. But funny that San Jose would be the ok place for the tech nerds at the 2M threshold.

I hadn't noticed this before in ChatGPT desktop (codex variant). Connect LMStudio to ChatGPT Work and it can call out to LMStudio models as sub-agents. Neat.

Really liking the combo of GPT and Claude agents side-by-side sharing work using github.com/hughescr/utr... to plug both Claude and OpenAI subscriptions into Claude Code. That plus adapted @timkellogg.me 's model-selection skill to pick the right model for each task. github.com/hughescr/mod...

sai.science/blog/how-muc... Classic garbage code. The majority of this research code doesn’t run or runs differently than on the researcher’s machine. And this is a conference of CS researchers. What is it about academia/research and inability to produce high-quality code?
