I was told Zohran Mamdani would instantly turn New York into a crime-ridden hellscape. Yet murders are down almost 20%, year over year. 203 people have been slain, about 22.5 per month. In 1990, that average was *251 per month.* NYC has never been this safe.

Using countless tokens, OpenAI brute forced a bunch of Lean code that *may* approach a solution. I don’t mean to discount a computer’s ability to iterate fast, which is what any computer is good for. But, this is hardly to say OpenAI deserves high praise.

Stuff like this irritates me. It’s not that AI actually thinks through problems. It’s that it just brute force pattern matches and iterates over tons of possibilities. And people interpret this as AI being revolutionary

After each dotcom bubble and GFC, I would have favored capitalist policies. But today, shit has gone out of hand. It’s clear to me that capitalism, in practice, is deeply flawed. I fully support democratic socialist policies now. It’s the only approach that leads to a sustainable equilibrium.
