Ladies & Gentlemen, we have managed to get the @EUCouncil ' EU Inc files. The ones that matter. The ones where we see the position of Each Member state: including who pushed the notaries' agenda. Buckle up and Repost. 🍿 Now if you are from those Member States, make some noise. Directly or through associations, politicians. Enjoy the thread 🧵 1/

Tell Sam Altman that I use my 64GB of RAM to run print("Hello, World!"). I want him to know it's me.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes people owning RAM is wasteful, and that it belongs in data centers instead. "From a global allocation perspective, actually, it’s quite terrible to have everyone have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer."

My advice to people starting their (stressful) careers - anything you do to cope with stress that isn’t sleep, exercise, hobbies, meditation, or hanging around people/animals you like, will become an unhealthy dependency you have to unlearn at some point.

There is unfortunately precedent for this. Before word processing, document length was bounded by the human capacity to copy long-form text & plateauing. After word processing, the tax & legal codes grew without check.
one thing I worry about as AI begins to reshape our country is it actually increases bureaucracy. we shouldn’t need a superintelligence to help us with our taxes, but once there’s truly nothing stopping politicians from overcomplicating our lives I worry that we will.

The funnest thing to do after taking time out to work on yourself is to return completely unimproved, or if anything, slightly worse

Lazy work used to mean too little output. Now, with AI, it often means too much and more work for everyone else. @tobi call it "slop grenades." A "Slop Grenade" is when you let AI produce the work and pass it on without adding any value (including checking it). Someone else has to wade through it, catch the mistakes, and clean up the mess. You save time and look productive but someone else pays for it.

- Germanic, ‘earn/deserve’ money: a moral weight from working - American, ‘make’ money: new wealth is created, not a fixed pie - Latin: ‘win’ money: you gain by taking it from others, zero-sum fixed pie No comment is even needed on this one
"Only the German language calls earning money verdienen ('to deserve it' through effort). The French and Spanish 'win' ( ganar ) it, the English 'harvest' ( earn ) it, Americans 'make' ( make money ) it, and the poor Hungarians 'search' for it.

If you raw dogged a CS degree pre-LLM you can never be a true vibe coder. You’ve seen too much.
