DOGE is looking less like a cost-cutting effort and more about digging a hole by breaking our government and xAI will be the ladder to get us out. He is creating the problem and wants to sell us the solution. Mark my words: Elon is positioning to have his AI technology running our government.

If you told me in 1994 that 30 years later the world’s richest man would be a bully SysOp of a worldwide BBS and would use that position to curry favor with a US President…I’d be like wtf man are you nuts

Wonder if news editors are going to realize people knew about an actual coup an hour-plus earlier on bluesky than twitter. Hearing a lot of that rumbling from old friends still in the legacy content mines today.

I completely agree with Jeremy. BlueSky resembles the old Usenet and IRC days when everything was relayed publicly. There are no corporate moats of an algorithm manipulating users to benefit ad monetization with toxic rage-fueled content.

FYI, here's the entire code to create a dataset of every single bsky message in real time: ``` from atproto import * def f(m): print(m.header, parse_subscribe_repos_message()) FirehoseSubscribeReposClient().start(f) ```

The hacker ecosystem here is truly remarkable. I'm not convinced that closed networks and ecosystems can match the chaotic, decentralized innovation that will only accelerate with the AT protocol.

It's Sunday morning so taking a minute for a nerdy thread (on math, tokenizers and LLMs) of the work of our intern Garreth By adding a few lines of code to the base Llama 3 tokenizer, he got a free boost in arithmetic performance 😮 [thread]

You really don't look at code the sane way after you spent some time in a more business-focused role. So much "craftsmanship" stuff suddenly is no longer important.

I created a starter pack for human-AI collaboration in case that this would be helpful for some newcomers, which overlaps with several existing starter packs. Let me know if you would like to be added. go.bsky.app/MRV1Wa1

Q: What happens when you overpay for a social media platform, drive away most of your advertisers, alienate half its users, making it worth less than a third of what you paid for it within a year? A: You get put in charge of government efficiency.
