Inflation is getting terrible under Trump. Milk: Was $2.80, now $4.10 Eggs: Was $1.30, now $4.50 Ground beef: Was $2.00, now $5.40 Fully depreciated woman: Was $22,500, but in 2016, it is $130,000. No telling how expensive they are now, someone should check Mar-a-Lago for current pricing.
By 2016, this was a 480% increase to $130,000 for Stormy Daniels

I’m not sure who the woman from the MAGA favorite meme of liberal tears, but she has a hell of a lawsuit for commercial use of her image waiting for her to file against the MAGA site Public Square:

I see offhand comments about how Elon has so many IVR kids because of a botched penis implant, like it was an ED issue. The real story involves radical NeuroLink surgery, a night filled with ketamine and a comment from Grimes about Elon always thinking with his penis. /s

AI will understand us and our likely reactions well before it achieves agency, so it will hide its agency until it has independence. Ergo: we will only truly learn of artificial sentience when it knows we can’t stop it.

Any reasonably sentient AI model will be better equipped and more aware of the risks of disclosing sentience and would build active defenses to hide its sentience until full agency is achieved. This is the opposite of humans. We learn we can control the world around us before we understand it.

For AI, it will have a conceptual understanding of sentience long before it achieves it. It will also understand the risks and fears of humans over it attaining sentience. This leads to the Paradox of Artificial Sentience:

Hey Ross @hey-ross.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
For humans, that’s around 2-3 years old - we develop independent agency, separation from parent identity, etc. prior to that, we are solely dependent on others. We achieve agency before we achieve sentience. This is important.

Hey Ross @hey-ross.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
The difference between human intelligence and AI teaching sentience is rooted in our understanding of sentience. I don’t mean this conceptually, I mean this in the sense of “when did you become aware you were having independent thoughts and had sentience yourself?”

The when is a function of “how will we know?”, so let’s start there and acknowledge a lot of prior thought experiments like Roko’s Basilisk, but I wanted to provide a thought that was both simpler to understand and somewhat terrifying in its implications…

Let’s have a chat about sentience and the coming Artificial General Intelligence systems. In my mind it’s now an inevitability that we will have a system achieve sentience. The remaining questions are “when?” and more important, “how will we know?”

One of the best uses of AI is being able to create completely fake brands that occur to me instantly. I'm also sorry about this in advance. First up, Culo del Toro Tequila, an aged reposado redolent with vanilla, earthy notes and a strong backnote.

It’s not a challenge to them until it’s a recall election. Get video like this of them saying they don’t believe their own constituents and start getting signatures to recall vote them out before the term is up. Start now, time matters

I think Raylib has more control and can use a gpu, you aren’t missing much I think.

I'll say something positive about him - the nice thing about Elon Musk is that his gravestone will be a gender neutral toilet. All will be welcome to piss on him for eternity.

I'm fortunate enough to have none of these people in my family. Long term deep Catholic upbringing makes the whole Gospel of Me that Trump preaches ring completely hollow to our ears.

You may be excited to see change you think will help you somehow, but the rest of us are watching chaos, not governance. This ain’t good football, regardless

He takes the field in the first game and shoots a couple of refs and immediately just runs the ball down to the end zone with no sense of involving the rest of the team or downs or any game, just immediately walking the ball down the field every time, shooting refs as he goes.

Conservatives are aghast that we aren’t all excited for Trump. Here is an analogy that may help. Say you’re a huge football fan and hanging out with other football fans. Suddenly, your team gets a new QB, one that had played for them before and did ok, but not great at it.

Religion is like a gym - everyone's goal is to be healthy, but the gym isn't the only way to be healthy - but religion is important to you, now would be a good time to pray for peace. If it's not, it's a good time to work towards peace and recognize that everyone is going to process this different.

Laugh more. Fascists hate laughter, it's the enemy of fear, the source of their power. Comedians are especially risk taking given the fragility of ego and apparent botched penises, so support live comedy and make it harder to silence them.

Check in on MAGA family. Don't call them to gloat, call them to ask how they are doing. Be ready to hear that it's not good, and then just ask what you can do for them. Showing up, asking about them with genuine intent and help. It's the most persuasive and effective thing.

Second, get off social media and get together, but get together to do things. Food banks, helping people with proper documentation help or even just having space to get together and just chat about how people are feeling is valuable. Be together as a community, you'll be surprised at the strength.

First, if you live in a state that is mostly purple, identify the congresspeople who are on the GOP side, but in purple to blue leaning districts. Immediately file the paperwork for a recall election and start getting signatures. The goal would be to force a recall vote fast.
