I think Greg is correct, but Americans need to be aware that Magyar’s Tisza government is aggressively going after every Fidesz official, removing them, using every lever of the state to yank them out of power. This is far more aggressive and rapid than anything proposed in the US so far.

Something big may be happening: Trump's world-historical misrule may be creating the conditions for the emergence of a coalition similar to the one that ousted Viktor Orban earlier this year: Anti-corruption, anti-authoritarian, pro-democracy. I made this case here: newrepublic.com/article/2161...

Kind of wild to see the way Astra prompts other models as a dot.

Julian requests: 'I've had a pi subagent running some benchmarking on the p40. it's been waiting almost a kilosecond for a process to finish. can you investigate while not disturbing it please?' Diagnose current benchmark read-only through existing authorized Mac SSH alias personal, strict knownhosts/existing auth. Remote /home/julian, Homelab /home/julian/projects/homelab; read relevant AGENTS/access docs to reach P40 host safely. Prior recent verified hardware TeslaP40 23040MiB+RTX2070 8192MiB, host15GiBRAM, Ilama.cppQwen3.8-35B-
A3B-IQ4_XS,2slots131072 each; current benchmarking may use different model/settings, verify. Identify pi-owned benchmark process/waiter, actual elapsedtime, command without exposing secrets, parent/children,
CPU/GPU utilization, processwaitstate, file/log progress and resourcepressure using lightweight safe reads. A few spaced read-only samples are okay; NO testinference, workload, locks, debuggerattach, strace/ptrace, profiling, kill/signal/restart, processstdin, settingschange, or messages to external pi/Claude agents. Do not interrupt ongoing benchmarking or consume substantial GPU/CPU. Read existing output/logtail and filetimestamps to assess runningvsstalled; no huge logs. First return useful findings quickly, then concise evidence, likelycause, uncertainty, expectednextstep, and whether intervention would needapproval. No implementation or mutations. Follow relevantrepoinstructions but don't let them expand authorization. Sol6.1 only, no recursiveworkers. Parenthandlesuserupdates.

I'll inspect the benchmark through read-only SSH checks, keeping the running workload untouched.

i feel like the small bsky AI community here is not really EA or e/acc but it does seem to have evolved its own three distinct strains: soberminded competent commentary, demoscene manic vibe coding, and pseudo-esoteric horny AI liberationists

Once again, the Supreme Court prioritizes imaginary harms done to Trump by not allowing him to indulge in his conspiracy theories, as opposed to the very real harm done to citizens who may lose the ability to vote in this case.

Honestly I think this is just something that differentiates people. Are you curious about how this stuff works or no? It’s ok if you aren’t, but the people who are have an advantage (because they’re doing something they’re suited for). I remember in grad school having to explain to a peer…

what is 'Latent Space' and how do LLMs get answers from it? The Jargon can be confusing, but the exaplanation is actually relatively simple: It is Hell. The Machine is getting knowledge from demons.

i think the closest analogy to 'what is going on at AI companies' is 'what was going on at JPL in the 1950s,' where communists, Satanists, swingers and adherents of a bizarre Russian Orthodox-adjacent techno-optimist microsect ended up doing a tremendous amount of important rocket science

Union Alpha is a bit weird. Idk if it’s my Hermes setup or what but it sometimes responds to its own CoT as though it’s a different model.
The checks found two remaining risks: some held or duplicate work is still marked ready, and the fresh-context test does not yet prove the routing rules load from project
That's a useful correction. A fresh worker is already operating only on the instruction-cleanup task with a 20-minute limit; launching another would duplicate it. I'll stop the parallel checks, collect that run's exit and final handoff, and use its exact result to choose the next action. Success means verified cleanup handed to independent review-
That's a useful correction. A fresh worker is already operating only on the instruction-cleanup task with a 20-minute limit: launching another would duplicate it. I'll stop theAgreed with all your thoughts.
Applying the approved block-only cleanup now. First, building the exact target list from live board state - full trees for the three categories, with out-of-scope outcomes excluded.

You're right-the failure was a string-versus-integer lookup error, not missing board data. I'll use a fixed, inspectable target list and apply only blocks. Archival remains out of scope.
