Reposted by Timtim city. @timcity.bsky.social · 2hI used to have a tumblr (I think it might still exist but I can't find it) where I would edit rappers I didn't like out of songs that had like 6 rappers on it cause I can't listen to a Rick Ross verse twice and still feel good about the world. 181

Reposted by TimJeremy Diamond ☕️ @dmnd.me · 25/09/2026It remains incredibly funny (not to mention convenient and gratifying) that training the AI to be evil (or at least antisocial) causes it to produce objectively worse output. Maybe current abliteration techniques are good enough to overcome this but we caught a break on that one. 1305

Tim @timzhu.io · 3hthere was a good Adrian Tchaikovsky interview a year ago ago with Ezra Klein where Adrian basically says if you had all the time and resources in the world to write, but no one could read it, he would never write because to him writing is about the relationship between author and reader 140

Tim @timzhu.io · 4hthinking about it, the only reason Choosin' Texas holds any enjoyment for me is that it reminds me of "That's How I Got To Memphis" (also how why do all the comments say "the Lindsay Clancy case brought me here") www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDHV...youtube.comTom T.

Tim @timzhu.io · 23hthere is definitely more useful and interesting AI discussion happening on X dot com but it is drowned out by like 100x more people experiencing AI psychosis and bot swarms giving each otehr anxiety. every profile is some guy claiming to run 20 start-ups and a bio that says "Let's build together" 1150

Reposted by Timmtsw @mtsw.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Like the great recession was very long and painful - much longer than anyone thought it would be in fact - but like 6 years later we were mostly out of. We're now on like year 15 of e.g. "it's impossible to afford family-sized housing in SF, LA, NYC, Boston, etc" and it gets worse every year 1379966
Reposted by Timmtsw @mtsw.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Maybe the reason the economic vibes are so off isn't that things are *worse* than the great recession but because back then we all thought the pain was temporary, whereas the things that are wrong with the economy today have all been getting worse for a long time and show no signs of improving 241663219

Reposted by TimColin @colin-fraser.net · 28/09/2026unlike many other AI enthusiasts I think that there is still a good case to make that this is basically true, just as it is true that a nail can be driven without a nail gun. But with a nail gun at your disposal you can drive many more nails in a short amount of time. 8915
