Ah. Maybe only open for research, but licensed for enterprise deployment. That at least makes some sense. techcrunch.com/2025/10/09/r...

I was very bearish on “AI apocalypse” until today. Jev and figure.ai developments just in the last few days are truly revolutionary. Self driving cars and murderbots will happen. I just really hope someone manages to build a better future from the ashes of the current world order.

Politicians are bad at their jobs. But I think we’re also terrible bosses. Every manager learns the same lesson: tell people WHAT you need, not HOW to do it. Specify outcomes. Delegate method. Politicians work for us. And by any management standard, we are catastrophic bosses.

This whole thread isn’t wrong, but a great lesson why us older folk are so wary of “vibes”. Vibes are so fluid, so misleading. You (no matter the age) do NOT understand vibes. Vibes mean 1000 things to 500 people. Legislation and policy are what matters.

However you feel about AOC it’s good for us to have a broader convo about how these MAHA people use keywords that you might agree with (pesticides! Chemicals! Safe food!) but the way they want to implement their ideas would kill the chronically ill, the disabled, the poor, and the marginalized.

There is something hilarious about a guy working for a company whose spending is more than twice its revenue criticizing social security, which has had well known modest fixes that could have been implemented decades ago.

The “head of strategic futures” at OpenAI just went on an unhinged rant against social security sometimes I feel like these tech companies are actively trying to alienate as many normal people as possible

Dean W. Ball @deanwball x.com The main thing I have to say to the young generation of Americans is that your grandparents and great-grandparents committed a kind of accounting fraud when they ran our country a century ago with social security, and at the time it was a reasonable affordance to grant our leaders, who were dealing with an economic depression and a world war, but nonetheless they did commit the fraud, and they ended up buying all sorts of extravagant things using the fraudulent gains, including what became the thing we now understand to be the high-modern technocratic nation-state, and that is glorious and also bad and all that, but the thing is there's still the issue about the accounting fraud, whose debt is coming due and is coming due fast. It is best to consider this with as minimal residue of sentiment as possible, to really sit with it, to stare it coldly in the face. Unwinding the great fraud of the high modernists is your job, whether you wish it to be or not.
