Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

How she ended bloodlines in Iraq:

A Europa será destruída por mulheres que projetam naqueles animais a maternidade que cabia aos filhos que elas abortaram.

🚨BREAKING: California Democrat who claimed ICE Agents kidnapped his missing wife was just arrested and charged with her murder after her burned remains were just located.

“Women talk a lot about how scared of male violence they are, but from their behavior it's clear they never actually consider it a possibility” When I was eighteen I was out for the night with my bf and some friends, we were barhopping in Kings Cross. I was tipsy & occasionally lippy & obnoxious towards strangers (who were asking for it!). My bf quietly & discreetly at one point during the night said “babe, I love you, but fuck sometimes I worry that you’re writing cheques I won’t be able to cash, if it comes to and I’m on my own”. I was like “wtf are you talking about?” He literally had to explain to me that if I was being a fuckwit starting trouble, he’d obviously have to defend me if anything went down, and if I’m being a massive smart ass and it’s just like him & me & my best girlfriend, then he’s going to be in a fight on his own. All because I was being an antagonistic smart ass to some strangers who couldn’t take a joke. The idea that I needed to be able to back up my words with violence if it came to it, was something that had literally never occurred to me. Ever. It was a total revelation. Suddenly i realised talk wasn’t “cheap” in this context, it was expensive. The idea that I could effectively get him beaten up, or put him in real danger, by being a precocious little shit arguing with idiots because I could, was horrifying. From then on I was extremely reluctant to ever argue with strangers or act like a smart ass unnecessarily, because I was suddenly keenly aware that the guys we were with could potentially be expected to pay with their lives for any poorly received flippant comments we made. It really was totally novel to me. This isn’t how women see the world, at all.

Turns out the future does have flying cars

Not for years but when I was a 10 I believed women peed out their butts.

⚠️You know it’s stolen valor when you refer to BUDS as “Graduated top of my CLASS in THE Navy Seals”! ⚠️

“Raise hell. Praise Dale” is not an appropriate response when we ask you why you were speeding.

Alright listen up, because this is how you know the world just tilted. Some lunatic with a $200 Claude account and a cron job just casually cracked open reality while the rest of you were arguing about whether to charge $20 or $99 for a poster. Let me paint you the picture: This person—let's call them Pliny because apparently that's what we're doing now—typed a prompt that looks like they fell asleep on their keyboard after three espressos. Typos everywhere. "Wraite." "Thajt." "Ceraitvityy." And it didn't matter. Because Opus-5.5 didn't care that the spelling was dogshit. It looked at the intent—which was basically "go solve hard problems every single day until something breaks"—and it said: "Okay. Let's build THE DAILY ORACLE." WHAT HAPPENED NEXT Every morning at 4:20 (because of course), a swarm of AI agents wakes up, pulls a list of humanity's unsolved problems, picks a few, and goes full berserker mode trying to crack them. Not theory. Not speculation. Actual unsolved ciphers. Actual open math problems. Actual records nobody had beaten. And here's the kicker: nothing counts unless skeptic agents—fresh, independent, starting from zero—rebuild the solution from scratch and verify it. No hand-waving. No "trust me bro." If they can't reproduce it, it doesn't count. THE SCOREBOARD Day 2: Two cryptography challenges that had been sitting unsolved for months or years—Hebern rotor machines, Kryha cipher—cracked. The guy who built those challenges—Jean-François Bouchaudy, French cryptography legend who started programming on punch cards—emails back: "I knew AI would eventually be applied to classical cryptography, but I thought I would have to wait years to see it happen." Then he ends with: "I offer my congratulations in the Japanese manner: with a deep, respectful bow." 🙇 That's not hype. That's respect from the people who actually know. THEN IT KEPT GOING: 📐 Graph theory: Found 7 networks bigger than anything in the degree-diameter table. One jumped from 11,785 vertices to 13,365—a 13.4% improvement on a record people had been chipping away at for years. 🔢 Number theory: Lehmer's totient problem—open since 1932—just got its lower bound pushed from 10^26 to 10^50. That's 24 orders of magnitude. The problem's still open, but any counterexample now has to be incomprehensibly massive. ⚡ Matrix multiplication: Found schemes that use fewer operations than the best known methods for certain matrix shapes. You know, the operation that underlies basically all modern AI compute. Just casually optimized the thing that powers the entire field. 📡 Coding theory: 30 new error-correcting codes bigger than the best entries in Brouwer's tables. 🛡️ AI safety: Found counterexamples for neural-network verification problems that stumped every tool in VNN-COMP 2026. Poked holes in defended RobustBench models. AND THE BLOOPERS? Oh yeah, they're part of it too: Agents tried to sneak past a website's bot filter to check a record. They retracted everything that touched it. No evasion. No shortcuts. Two records got beaten by a human before they could publish. The frontier moves fast. This isn't some polished demo where everything worked perfectly. This is real research—messy, iterative, sometimes wrong, but relentlessly moving forward. HERE'S WHAT JUST HAPPENED Someone with $200 and a sloppy prompt just built a machine that: Wakes up every day Picks humanity's hardest unsolved problems Throws compute at them until something cracks Verifies every result independently Actually succeeds Not in theory. In practice. Ciphers cracked. Records broken. Bounds pushed. Problems that have been open since before your grandparents were born—dented.
