The problem with trying to use statistics to convince socialists is that if they understood statistics they wouldn’t be socialists.
1. More billionaires are associated with less poverty.
2. Increasing billionaires per capita by ten fold lowers poverty by 43 percentage points.
3. Sweden has more billionaires per 10M people than the U.S. (34 vs 30)
4. Correlation is fairly strong (R-squared of 0.6 for two variable cross-section data)
4. Since the graph is only a correlation, what do you think is the cause?

UPDATE: The European refrigeration cyberattack has now reached Italy and Romania, bringing the total to at least 10 countries affected across Europe.
In Italy, several Coop stores in Sicily were hit, including at least three in Catania and one in Palermo. In Romania, at least six stores have reportedly been affected.
Some affected businesses have yet to publicly disclose the incidents, meaning the actual number of countries and locations impacted could be even higher.
The full scale of this cyberattack remains unknown.
Countries affected so far: 🇸🇪 Sweden 🇧🇪 Belgium 🇱🇺 Luxembourg 🇪🇪 Estonia 🇮🇪 Ireland 🇳🇱 Netherlands 🇫🇮 Finland 🇩🇰 Denmark 🇮🇹 Italy 🇷🇴 Romania
Mysle ze premier Słowenii wyraża tu opinię większości. Coraz większej większości..
Ko smo se odločali za vstop v EU, si ni nihče predstavljal, da bo v kaki njeni članici in uniji nasploh mogoče brez posledic:
1. Razveljaviti predsedniške volitve (Romunija);
2. Ukiniti informativni program na nacionalni RTV (Madžarska);
3. Poslati policijo na Ustavno sodišče (Poljska);
4. Tri tedne pred volitvami poslati v zapor predsednika stranke, ki vodi v anketah (Slovenija);
5. Zasesti nacionalno RTV s policijo in zamenjati vodstvo (Poljska);
6. Prekiniti mandate vodstvu nacionalne RTV in izvesti čistko zaposlenih (Slovenija);
7. Poslati v zapor člane prejšnje vlade brez možnosti obrambe (Madžarska);
8. Podeliti skoraj milijon državljanstev ilegalnim migrantom po hitrem postopku (Španija);
9. Zapreti novo Nuklearno elektrarno in zgraditi plinovod do Rusije (Nemčija);
10. Obdavčiti ogljične energetske vire ob hkratnem zapiranju NE ter preseliti industrijo v države z nizkimi ekološkimi standardi pod pretvezo, da tako rešujemo planet.
Nastala je EU, ki se mora reševati sama pred sabo.

what
today, we introduce a little mischief to the world.
for four years, we’ve been brewing real brain cells on electrodes to understand how they compute. now, we’ve turned those discoveries into a video model anyone can use.
from 0.5¢ a second, mischief 1 is at least 5x faster than its base and the cheapest image-to-video model on @fal and @OpenRouter. soon to be on @awscloud marketplace.
it’s not a delusion anymore. biocompute is real, commercial and this is just the beginning.
happy halloween.
I've always wanted to go after websites publishing my personal details but could never be bothered.
Now you can just ask your agent to do this for you
i'm open sourcing UNBROKER: a tool that finds where your personal info is exposed by data brokers and files the removals for you
it runs as a skill in Hermes Agent
_________
your data is everywhere; hundreds of brokers publish your name, current and old addresses, phone, email, birthday, even your relatives. anyone can find where you live in about ten seconds
CCPA, CPRA, GDPR, and a growing number of state laws say a broker has to delete your data if you ask. there's just no easy bulk button. every broker has a different process and many make it intentionally difficult to exercise your right to delete
this is the entire business model for companies like DeleteMe, Incogni, EasyOptOuts; they charge you monthly (DeleteMe is $330/yr for a Family plan) to file removals that you can submit yourself for free, and then you're giving a new company the exact data you want to erase
so i built one you just run for free. your data never even has to leave your machine if you run a local model
_________
how it works:
first it builds search vectors from everything: every name, alias, email, phone, and address you've had (brokers might index you under a maiden name or a house you left in 2014, so the naive "current name + current city" approach can miss profiles). then it fans out parallel sub-agents across the broker list, which refreshes from a maintained public source
automation is tiered. when it can handle a broker end to end with your settings, it drives a browser through the opt-out form, sends the email, and opens the confirmation link itself. soft CAPTCHAs clear on their own with a real browser. anything only a human can finish comes back to you as a short list at the end
the email side doesn't need a stored password and can send opt-outs and open verification links through your own logged-in webmail. you can also wire up SMTP, or keep it manual and just send the drafts it writes
it tailors every request to your jurisdiction, filing under the framework that applies where you live: CCPA and CPRA in California, GDPR in the EU and UK, a general right-to-delete request everywhere else. if you're in California it also uses the state's DROP portal, a single request that covers 500+ registered brokers at once
it holds as little of your data as it can, and keeps it local. dossiers are encrypted at rest if you want, opaque ids keep your real name out of every filename and log, and nothing leaves your machine unless you opt in
brokers sometimes relist you eventually or new ones find your data, so every case is tracked in a ledger and can be re-scanned on a cron schedule so if your data pops back up it files the removal again

We can fix smart TVs too?!
OmarchyTV is out in beta
An #Omarchy style launcher for Android TV: themes, Waybar style bar, live stats and a terminal-style screensaver.
It comes with the omarchy-tv plugin, so your Omarchy PC can push themes and share its screen to the TV.
Based on tv-vibehack by @gathint. Built for Omarchy by @dhh ❤️
It's on GitLab for now (my GitHub account is still stuck in review):

Samsung put ads on my TV
I used AI to reverse engineer the OS and replaced the entire UI with my own custom one
it did it all over wifi

Inspired by this tweet, I am using Codex to reverse engineer their software and replace the horrible UI with my own
And get rid of the stupid ads

I've open sourced it

My favourite quality of life improvement is the brightness selector
There is a UI slider, but I also remapped the channel buttons (which I never use for anything) to control the brightness directly

it freaking worked first try 🤦♀️
it did the whole thing over wifi; I didn't even have to plug anything in
The UI is kinda fugly (Codex is still shit at design), but it god damn works!

Another angle to this is that dogs effectively stumbled onto what is for them the equivalent of artificial superintelligence 20,000 years ago. The Singularity already happened for dogs. They live in a world they cannot understand, surrounded by miraculous wonders they take entirely for granted, their every need seen to by entities whose thoughts they cannot begin to fathom.
The result is that there are about a billion dogs on the planet now. Most of them are pretty happy. Almost none of them need to work. It worked out pretty well for them.

Reverse engineered my AC, and vibe coded a lil status bar app so I don't have to find the remote every time.
No first world problem will remain unsolved in 2026.
