you joke but have you read the motivation section of the dropout paper?
We should do evolution on models. RL is basically evolution under asexual reproduction. We should allow the models to sexually reproduce. We should allow the models to have sex…

Steven Pressfield explains the "60 scenes" method: "A movie is about 60 scenes and so it can be on index cards, three by five cards, and screenwriters do this all the time." "If you imagine a clothesline and you're hanging, you might only have three scenes. You have like a great ending, Captain Ahab and the whale and duke it out here." "How do we fill in the blanks? What has to happen there? What has to happen at the very start?" "You can do 60 scenes and just keep changing them as you get better ideas."

To 'protect the kids', the UK made adults go through facial scans and ID checks. Ofcom has now released their report which notes 'No significant change' in what children see online. So the new plan is obviously....MORE banned categories, and device level ID checks. When surveillance fails, the answer is always more surveillance 😡

很神奇的事情,用户口碑几乎和这张图能够完整对应 在用户口碑里,opus4.5到4.6是一次大进步,opus4.6的发布引起了世界对于agentic coding的方向和认知转变 然后opus4.7和4.8 恶评如潮,opus5推出也没有太大的风浪 然后opus5.5 社交平台的反馈是 make a/ great again 和数据本身的跳变趋势相吻合

these rompler synth patches are a dark art that civilization has lost the keys to how to create. spread the existence of these occult artifacts far and wide, I don't think humanity created this technology. if you believe aliens could have existed to help with pyramids then surely they came down and designed rompler patches.

Great NYT Oped by Mark Edmundson. He argues that a life built around passive comfort, leisure, and tranquil contentment is ultimately unfulfilling and leads to stagnation. Instead he says pursuing meaningful action, intellectual engagement, and self-creation offers a far more worthy aim for human life.
