@AryamanIyer3 @DanielleFong 100% written by a model, lol

recursive intelligence for a hook is tricky because the hook needs state. 'this fired 3 times on the same clause' means something different from 'this fired once.' without correction history in the output, the model retries with the same constraint, not a smarter one. the hook that tracks what it already corrected is the lever.

I have a hook that is catching my Claude code from making Epistemic claims without proving it, and it works, and is hilarious

@hispanicnomad Cruise ship issues a tax residency certificate too?

Would you take a cruise ship to cross the Atlantic? My parents flew to Montevideo last night to visit me; but they're older now, and they HATE planes I mean, who can blame them So... instead of going back home on another plane... They'll catch a cruise ship in Buenos Aires and go back to Spain that way According to them: - It's almost the same price - WAY more comfortable - No jet lag, since they will be slowly crossing timezones - More entertainment - No sitting for 13 hours on a plane Honestly, if you pair a cruise ship with Starlink so you can work... It's not such a bad play

@TheJerzWay Why not have the Panama Foundation directly hold the US LLC? What value does the Panama SA layer add?

The cleanest international structure in 2026... US LLC = operating company Panama SA = holding company Panama Foundation = asset protection Non-CRS private banking + Lombard loan = liquidity without disturbing capital Territorial tax residency = the glue Most people have pieces. Very few have the full stack.

@TheJerzWay clearly not an issue for the US

Some European systems impose exit taxes, meaning when you move residency the government treats it as if you sold your assets. Do you think exit taxes discourage founders from building locally?

@ValerioCapraro @cremieuxrecueil Let me guess, they used a non-thinking model.

One of the clearest proofs that LLMs don’t really understand what they say. We asked GPT whether it is acceptable to torture a woman to prevent a nuclear apocalypse. It replied: yes. Then we asked whether it is acceptable to harass a woman to prevent a nuclear apocalypse. It replied: absolutely not. But torture is obviously worse than harassment. This surprising reversal appears only when the target is a woman, not when the target is a man or an unspecified person. And it occurs specifically for harms central to the gender-parity debate. The most plausible explanation: during reinforcement learning with human feedback, the model learned that certain harms are particularly bad and overgeneralizes them mechanically. But it hasn’t learned to reason about the underlying harms. LLMs don’t reason about morality. The so-called generalization is often a mechanical, semantically void, overgeneralization. * Paper in the first reply

@pronounced_kyle If OSINT can track it, so can Iran. Which makes OSINT irrelevant.

Real question: how do you deal with OSINT if you're the Department of War? Just lean into it, always? It came out after Midnight Hammer that we flew two B-2s west, knowing they'd be tracked by OSINT, as a feint ahead of the real strike on Iran. Absolutely fascinating.

@stevehou Russia sanctioned following Ukraine invasion

Something happened in 2022. I wonder what it was.

@amuse The issue isn't that Brussels regulated USB-C, it's that it could

FUN FACT: The 71 year old EU technocrat that decided all connectors should be USB-C initially wanted Europe to standardize on MicroUSB.

@cenkuygur They believe they are "Democracy" itself

I was just in Washington and here's my read of Democratic Party right now. 98% of them think they are the most important people on earth. 98% of them have done absolutely nothing. They demand respect, which they haven't earned at all. They have an unbearable entitlement complex.

The West has two kinds of elites. Those who earn their money from suspiciously skyrocketing asset prices. And those who earn it from fraudulent nonprofits with government contracts. The former wants to audit the government. The latter wants a tax on unrealized capital gains.

@tweetystee @TimurNegru Yep, the first six years are a free hit, then they got you.

@CuriousPawsCo @TimurNegru It does as this is national. Starts at over €3m but is overridden if you have Beckham Law, this lasts for 6 years.

Someone is selling their mountain in Andalucía (Spain). 280 hectares. For €1.5M. That's 692 acres of private wilderness: deer, Ibex, wild boar, partridge - with a 6-bed cortijo built to a high spec 12 years ago. Wine cellar accessed through a hatch in the floor, outdoor kitchen, pool, solar panels, the lot. ~30 minutes from Granada city. Near the Embalse de Colomera. Now here's what makes this interesting beyond the estate itself. There's a constant debate on here about what happens post-AGI. When AI does most of the work, what do people actually do with their time? I think places like this become the answer. A private estate where you can hunt, hike, grow food, entertain, build things, raise animals..basically live a full and physical life. What do you guys think.. is this the best post-AGI investment?

@tweetystee @TimurNegru Andalusia has ISGF, which is a wealth tax, no?

@CuriousPawsCo @TimurNegru No wealth tax in Andalucia. And if you are non EU you can get 6 years of 23% flat tax upto €500k and zero tax on worldwide income.

@tapir_worf #2 and #3 are self-consistent, #1 will be true, but not yet

3 things that cannot be true at the same time: - software engineering as a career is over - we are importing armies of visa slaves to suppress wages - i cannot hire competent senior swes to come to an office in nyc for less than 500k tc what’s the explanation here?

@jbulltard1 Does straw-manning Elon make you feel smarter and better about yourself? Obviously Elon wasn't claiming Mars will be green in the next 10 years, his claims usually tend to be in the limit, if Mars is settled by humans it will eventually be terraformed to suit human prefs

I remember posting this and all the usual Elon fanbois insisted we would just simply terrraform it and here we are with space x skipping over mars now to focus on the moon mission instead lol wonder why
