Ed Zitron used AI to create the very first chart in this piece. It made a critical error, which he did not notice because he just learned about bonds last month. THAT is the danger of non practitioners relying on AI output, you don’t know what you’re looking for. The chart is completely inaccurate.

as long as the state is staffed by failable people and systems, the death penalty will always kill innocents. It's a barbaric practice that has no place in society anymore

okay, added a whole discovery loop where it polls a few different sites to find neighbors even for relatively low-listen band names that aren't really in the index

It looks like decompiling has a good AI interface now: rea (Reverse Engineer Anything) brings together the binary decompiling and profiling tools needed to rip apart any binary with MCP interfaces. github.com/morluto/rea

i'm a fan of "the dumbest reason is likely correct", there was a flurry of purchases for the .si (slovenia) TLD a month before his announcement and those domain names are now worth considerably more money via cybersquatting

Alt text: Dark-themed line chart from NameBio showing monthly aftermarket sales of .si (Slovenia) domain names from approximately 2013 to October 2026. Sales remain near zero for most of the period, with minor spikes around 2018, 2024, and 2025. In 2026, sales surge dramatically, reaching roughly 23 before briefly falling back near zero in midyear. The chart ends with an even sharper increase to a record high of approximately 33 monthly sales, illustrating an unprecedented rise in demand for .si domains.

Alt text: Bar chart showing monthly new registrations of Slovenia’s .si domain names from July 2025 through September 2026. Registrations remained relatively low throughout 2025 and early 2026, generally ranging from a few hundred to 2,300 per month. Activity surged in May 2026 to approximately 4,700 registrations and June to 5,300, before declining in July and August. September 2026 saw an unprecedented spike to approximately 10,000 new registrations, nearly double the previous peak.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately

Hello Bone Colleagues,
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

I was a graph theory junkie long ago and even moved to Budapest for awhile to study among the greats. While I was there I started working on Barnette's Conjecture which came to occupy my thoughts over the next 24 years of my life, on and off as I worked in many different fields. Last summer I even thought for a few days that I had actually solved it. But it's supposedly proven here - problem 180. I don't know what to think exactly. I spent thousands of hours on that problem. I really enjoyed it. Hearing that it is solved somehow makes me sad in a far-off way, like hearing an ex-girlfriend died suddenly in a car crash. I don't know, there's probably a lot of people feeling odd emotions tonight. There's no Lean proof for this one so I'm digesting the paper. On the surface it looks like an approach I considered 24 years ago and abandoned.
I revisited the problem this summer, along with my partial solutions, when the previous round of stunning proofs came out. Several hours of work with Fable simply convinced me it wasn't yet solvable and reinforced how hard of a problem it was.

I went back to that Fable chat and showed it this new preprint. It coded up the new constructive algorithm and ran it against the existing test suite, that looks good at least.
It has been super helpful in delineating where the crucial concept came from. The proof is rather simple as graph theory proofs go, but it does seem to use some constructions that would only seem obvious if you had serious physics experience with partition function and calculating energy states that cancel out. It's not a wholly alien bolt from the heavens, but I can also see how there hasn't been a human being with the broad theoretical physics knowledge combined with the deep graph theory experience in planar graphs to come up with this idea. I don't know, I'm looking for precedents of this formulation and some old papers of Penrose counting the number of edge colorings of this same graph type are coming up, the line of argument at least rhymes. But I agree with the thought that this sort of progress should not be siloed inside those companies. I propose a tax so that every slop cannon Al video pays for another hour of compute time for advancing mathematics.

I'm a free information radical. I have spent most of my career publishing open-source code and building open-information systems. I grew up getting access to knowledge that I never would've otherwise had because of the Internet. The past 5 years have accelerated it. I think the future is bright.

apparently made by Fable 5.5, looks impressive at a glance but it is a straightforward mashup of two different games... that could still be a huge upset to the system, trivializing picking up some low-hanging fruit
