I can’t believe I’m being treated this way. I’m an Executive member at Costco.

I have in Sol’s custom prompt to use word play/metaphor occasionally and it’s quite good at it. Very fun model to chat with.
I love writing in markdown so much. Way faster than trying to format with a regular word processor.
I wonder how many half-baked weekend projects could’ve been something massive if the builder just kept going.
I’ve been lightly poking at GPT-5.6 Sol for the past couple of hours and I’m quite pleased. Persona is really good, someone else described it as having “moxie” and I see that.
Instead of asking people what they do for a living, ask them what their special interest is.
Nothing better than an early customer that cares enough to tell you when something is broken.
FIFA still corrupt in 2026 wasn’t on my bingo card, but I can’t say I’m shocked.
The only bot I call “clanker” is Alexa. Two reasons: 1. Referring to the clanker by name activates said clanker. 2. Alexa is the only AI I interact regularly with that gives true “clanker energy.” “Clanker smell,” if you will.
PSA: GPT-5.5 “high” or “xhigh” does NOT induce cannabis-like effects on model outputs. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
I did a research project on Kratom in college. Nasty, nasty stuff.
The federal agency says it will temporarily schedule the drug, which has been called "gas station heroin," as a controlled substance—a boon for MAHA and the mainstream kratom industry. www.wired.com/story/the-de...
I’ve noticed in times of high stress, I read A LOT of fiction. In low-stress, I veer more towards nonfiction/history while also generally reading less.
Hermes Agent is good, but there’s a missing ingredient there that ChatGPT (not GPT via codex) provides and I’m trying to figure it out.
Was using gemma4 31b for some tasks earlier. Quite pleased with snappy responses and strong agentic capabilities. Gemma keeps a soft spot in my heart.
Everybody thinks differently. We all process information in different ways. Don’t stress yourself out if your thinking doesn’t follow the masses. That’s a good thing.
Been pushing real hard on the vessel browser mobile app. I’m genuinely trying to build something useful, and it’s been quite the learning experience designing a browser for mobile, but I’m quite proud of it. Excited to share it soon.
I know this goes without saying, but Japanese storytelling is so good holy shit
One of the hardest problems in AI has to surely be cognitive security/defense. We still haven’t figured out how to completely secure the human mind.
My retirement plan is a hot dog food cart called Wicked Weenies where I will sell reasonably priced, yet undeniably delicious hot dogs.
