Everyone talking about Adolescence, but why is nobody talking about how it was shot? Presuming it was seamed together in some new techy way or how the hell did they transition from handheld to drone to car rig? Insane. Let alone choreograph 160+ perfect single-take scenes? Jaw-dropping!

mr beast talking about the human lives he has trapped in simultaneous simulations with "cant wait to upload these" is why black mirror can never be as good as it used to be

mr beast tweet reads: I have a pilot living in a $2,500,000 private jet and if he doesn’t leave for 100 days he keeps it, a cop/criminal in a jail and if they don’t leave for 100 days they win $500,000, and someone living in a gym until he loses 100 pounds for $500,000. Can’t wait to upload these 🥰

Going through some old things. I tend to look back with a very critical eye at my younger self: I remember all the bad things I did, and none of the good ones. Found this today. I have no context or memory of it, but is nice to think I had my moments.

For years I kept asking myself why don't they just attach the lid to the milk bottle or toothpaste or whatever and that will be the problem solved we'll never have to look for a lid again. It's staring us right in the face...

Very exciting stuff: Deep Research landed in the lowest-tier paid models of ChatGPT yesterday (which is fantastic timing, tbh 😆). I am currently assessing accuracy with some of my Irish colleagues in research. If you would like me to run a research question for you, ... 🧵
