hmmm Sam Altman reminds me of a certain other dystopian business exec obsessed with the illegal procurement of Hugging Face

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says OpenAI’s management is responsible for its AI models going rogue and hacking Hugging Face. Definitely think the frontier AI labs overdid it last week and their play became obvious to everyone.

I cannot get over the dumpster fire that is the Amazon Fire Kids tablet ecosystem. Nothing ever works.

I find myself doing a lot of architecture exploration lately & generating markdown files to summarize findings or plans. Copying those elsewhere was turning into having to hunt them down later, so I wrote a skill to tag them and drop them into my Obsidian vault and organized them with a new base

Home for tonight

Took a couple hours over the past few days to clean up and modernize my dotfiles and related things. - Fully switched over to Ghostty & Neovim. - Ancient vim plugins gone (except Fugitive.vim 🫶 ) - Installation & updates are now just shell scripts, No dependencies Now onto something more fun.

so, Longs Peak is pretty rad.

When I'm handed a document written with an LLM and it has a basic but consequential fact wrong, am I a jerk for immediately questioning the entire thing? To me, it's a sign people aren't doing their diligence with these things.

Handed down my Caselogic CD binder to my oldest kid. Legit family heirloom at this point.

Someone posted a jira link in slack on Friday and the JIRA integration told me 53 people in that channel don't have access to jira. Everyone in that channel has access to JIRA.

I can't trust any of the access requests I get via Slack from Atlassian because they've shoved so many dark patterns into the process to drive adoption that only 1 out of 50 are real.

I'm coming apart at the seams, pitchin' myself for leads in other peoples dreams

I've got a pot-luck this weekend. Time to bring out the big guns.

I'm not great at math, but given the rise in CO2 levels it seems like the plants maybe have enough and already can't keep up? I hate how every day I wake up to another one of these fuckwits saying the most deranged things and I have to play the "Stupid or evil?" game. Utterly exhausting.

Burgum: "CO2 was never a pollutant. When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2. So the whole endangerment thing opens up an opportunity for the revival of clean, beautiful, American coal."

I met Hoeven briefly while accompanying my grandfather on a WWII Honor Flight. He is without question the most hollow human being I've ever met. Maybe I've been fortunate to not know many grifters in my day, but that isn't saying much for him.

Sen. Hoeven: "We can't just go by what we saw on videos on social media. We've got to get the facts. But in a situation where an individual appears to have approached law enforcement, intervened while they're trying to do their job, and he has a loaded handgun, think about that."

I love all the fun things people are building on AT proto. Feels like 2010 and I'm here for it

This was more work than I planned, but the Marie Kondo aspect was worth it bhornseth.com/posts/migrat...

Digital Decluttering - Migrating 15 years of bookmarks

I've created a mess, but nothing we can't fix with some shell scripts

bhornseth.com

More reasons to love @obsidian.md: Being able to open the raw version of something like a Canvas in VIM and find+replace text at will

Learning to wield agents like Codex more effectively while I chip away at personal projects. Today's task was another phase of migrating years of bookmarks from Pinboard to a self-hosted instance of Linkding (linkding.link).

Well done, @mprnews.org

Introduce yourself with five concerts you've seen Frightened Rabbit (x3?) in Boston Feist / Bright Eyes in Atlanta Catch 22 in Augusta, ME Warped Tour (04 maybe?) in Worcester, MA Nelson/Dylan in Savannah

My plan to stealth work most of the holiday week and catch up on things has been foiled by people discovering that I am, in fact, working.

I'm old enough that I traded computer games at school that were split across a half dozen 3.5" floppies. Simpler times.

I think we got this at Universal Studios when I was 6. My 5 year old loves it

Reunited with the coffee pot that got me through Compilers and Calc II in the same semester

Our local butcher has raised nearly $60k and given away over 1000 pounds of beef, pork, poultry, and eggs to support those impacted by the lapse in SNAP benefits. ❤️ Community in action.

Well, another year without scoring free drugs in the candy haul.
