This is far more aggressive and rapid than anything proposed in the US so far. 271178312
Reposted by JGreg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · 16hSomething 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.

J @jcashell89.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The whole dot thing on OpenAI is super cute. Mine named itself quibble and generated an avatar with bearface. Can it do anything for me? Who knows! 000

Reposted by Jeva (^_^)/ @eva.computer · 27/09/2026i 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 2835938

Reposted by JDon Moynihan @donmoyn.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Once 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. 412099715

J @jcashell89.bsky.social · 25/09/2026…that reading the documentation is the quickest way to understand how DS / ML libraries work. Shocking! 010
J @jcashell89.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Honestly 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… 121

Reposted by Jrev. howard arson @theophite.bsky.social · 18/09/2026i 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 23805147
