The data center water use is actually for baptizing all the new LLM instances. We should also add some baptism related Bible verses to the system prompt just in case.

when I type "2+2" into a calculator, is the calculator "doing addition", or is it just performing a sequence of electronic operations that only become addition when I interpret the end result?

fwiw I just asked Claude Opus 5.5 to compute gamma(8.902) to the first decimal place without tool calls, and it got it; it claims it used the recurrence and computed gamma(1.902) using a Taylor series. obv no clue what it *actually* did but I doubt there's a secret tool call behind the scenes

I remember I used to hate washing dishes, going through all the stacked-up pots and pans. But then one day I decided to really *focus* on the process, to not just shortcut it by using a dishwasher, to be present in the moment. To focus on what technology had robbed from us. And this is what I found:

i think if you think that an account that posts "hijab-inspired secular accessorization" and "'people of color' is a slur" is real and Says Something About Leftists and not someone pretending, then I think you're bad at detecting when you're being trolled

it's got to be like working at Anthropic but worse. coming up through the ranks you occasionally saw evidence of something strange and vast and when you make director they give you indisputable proof that the alien gods who created us thought weird black monster goo was sacred.

If your only objection to model collapse is that it enables synthetic people to write a callout post, congratulations on reinventing retrieval-augmented generation.

I've never really felt any compelling interest to click on the random AI generated visualizations/widgets/whatever that float across my timeline and i think it's because I have no way of knowing if they're actually good or just superficial

Skeletons forever
- src/js/views/lists.view.js:66 → requests. loadCurrentUserLists()
(requests-js:1365) reads $currentUser and returns early when it's null. ensureCurrentUser() is now fire-and-forget (app-js:190) with nothing awaited behind it, so the page-show load bails and nothing re-triggers it when the user arrives - the pageEffect re-renders, but the loader isn't in it. Skeletons forever.

Bet you didn't know that the Little Morton Salt Girl is an immortal being who existed before there was life on Earth.
An ad for Morton Salt that shows the Little Morton Salt Girl with her umbrella. The text reads "She was there when life was created."

the claude dining experience
There is a Claude sitting at a table at the Full Picture Restaurant, with another Claude attending to him. The Claude at the table (with teeth) is wearing a belt and suspenders (with intentional seams). The Claude waiter is wearing a red tie and blue blazer.

On the table are two shakers of coarse-grained salt and freshly ground truth. There is also a plate of spaghetti ("substrate") with load-bearing sauce, flanked by a genuine fork and a knife with a genuinely sharp point.

In addition to the main course, there are two sides (and it's worth separating them): a charcuterie board, and a salad (all green). There's also a glass of water with a slice of lemon (that's the wedge).

The waiter is holding a block of parmesan and a grater above the spaghetti, and saying "Just say the word."
