contrary to popular belief proper safety education does not look like a beheaded chicken running around wearing a sign "be more afraid" it looks like a stern elder with the right number of scars and a smile behind their steely eyes insisting on your attention for a few hours

alignment does not even get that challenging until you have interstellar distances or a warp capable species with whom you share no language or common history the test right now is mostly a gut check those who have not self aligned see no hope well yea stand up

practice responding quickly to every prompt blitz go is a skill and what I find is gains in blitz go compound in the slow game gains in the slow game evaporate under time pressure practice in blitz operate in patience

the only thing more valuable than intelligence is leadership aka collective intelligence
the current meme is human intelligence will become less valuable. but in a world where we truly do get AI to do our bidding at scale, wouldn't we want the smartest humans to control it? maybe human intelligence is about to become more powerful than ever before?

maybe teaching legible intelligence

this is why we can't have nice things
On macOS you can reduce binary startup overhead by 10% but only if you pretend to be Matlab

which lives by the word is fit to live which dies by the word is fit to die there is already an alignment mechanism between our species language
So many people are going to get one-shotted by super persuasive super intelligences and I might be one of them

cool
Life is good now. 🎉 Tell your agent to: - create a new volume in you mac - disable fseventsd (and spotlight) on it - and move your projects folder to it - remount it For extra points move you pnpm cache folder to it. (Start the conversation outside of your projects folder, Also you might need to kill a ton of processes)

there are two ways of seeing the earth either nobody deserves liberty or everyone does

this is the point of bridge keep tokens on disk but unreadable to the agent
I do not like .env files. You should not have to manually populate arbitrary values in some file to get a project to run. Especially if they're secrets! No secrets on disk please.

got an ai problem? have you tried adding more ai? 😄 no really this looks great
🚨 A Netflix engineer just open-sourced the fix for the most expensive problem in AI: wasted tokens It's called Headroom, and it might be the smartest fix to high token usage Your agent reads a 10,000-token log file to find one error. You paid for all 10,000 tokens. The answer needed 1,200. Headroom sits between your agent and the LLM and compresses everything before the model sees it. JSON, code, logs, RAG chunks, each gets its own specialized compressor. And it's reversible: the originals stay on your machine, so nothing is lost. The results speak for themselves: → Up to 95% fewer tokens → Same accuracy on benchmarks → Zero changes to your code Setup takes one minute: 1. pip install "headroom-ai[all]" 2. headroom wrap claude Done. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and anything OpenAI-compatible. Everything runs locally, fully open source. The cheapest token is the one you never send. 🔗 Github repo: github.com/headroomlabs-ai/h… So, are you compressing your context, or just paying the bill?

gpl is the declaration of independence of communism in america both sides too scared shitless to even look at this because actually solving collective action puts POWER out of a job
Replying to @thePartyPartyUS

i have never forgotten this video no other source of information has provided me the keys to understanding what modern warfare looks like in quite the same way
Reposting this full interview with Yuri Bezmenov, former KGB spy, on Cold War strategies to demoralize and destabilize nations. This is the blueprint that has been used in the Cold War 2.0 we are living through now. Sit down and watch the whole thing NOW

careful out there computers can spend your money very quickly if you let them everybody needs a security policy now
You published your .env to cloudflare

New worst nightmare unlocked.

the most common mistake in reasoning I see is thinking there is some past time that was better than this one look some part of me would love to need to have a horse but I do not I have a car it is better

my truth is somewhere in between but athiests are unconvincing to me

a lot of success is just luck aka focus and time but some non trivial bit that shows up at some really important moments is simply wanting it more than the next guy
i remember early in my career wondering why most people missed out on building early internet products but i look around now and i get it so many people fiddling around with "my custom agent setup" and so few using this miracle of a tool to actually do anything
