@SenWarren Because day care is over regulated, state regulations run hundreds of stupid pages, making it expensive to start and run a business Here's one of my favorite regulations out of Seattle: "Day Care must offer cultural diverse food menu"

All the stuff about Zucman, Piketty et al. makes me scream that I didnt finish my book earlier. It is, without making it about them or their work, a strong alternative. Its a simple pitch: markets are egalitarian forces that improve living standards really fast. Markets minimize the need for the state to do things, complement some of its (the state) good things, and can offset some of the bad things it does. The proof is the extended gilded age (gilded age + progressive era) when the top 10% got richer nearly 1.2 percentage points slower per year than bottom 90%. For the top 1%, the pace was as fast as the bottom 90%.

Hegseth: The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won't seek one, won't buy one, won't have one. Brennan: JCPOA said that too. Hegseth: The huge difference is we did this from a position of strength.

@nosilverv Out of love of humankind, out of despair over my awkward predicament of having achieved nothing and of being unable to make anything easier than it had already been made, out of genuine interest in those who make everything easy, I comprehended that it was my task: to make dif..

Back in the 1840s (!) Kierkegaard saw industrialists around him making life so 'easy' that people forgot how to live. So his response was to 'make difficulties everywhere.' Feels like he was early.

@AmericanGwyn Proper should write whatever the hell they want…and people should read whatever the hell they want. And that’s sort of how things get decided. Right…?

The night you find out your spouse cheated, you don't learn one fact. You re-evaluate ten years of them. Every late meeting. Every weekend trip. The memories don't change — what they mean does. Your brain does this automatically. Your AI's memory can't do it at all. ↓

@richschefren its been painfully obvious to me that the memory retrieval, revisions and integrations are the bane of my working with ai - even in zenith mind elite .... i change an idea, and it should go all the way downstream; and if it a core meaning transformation it should start upstream

Currently getting a gel removal, typing with one hand — and chuckling The 4 hr routine is likely possible by a life audit and a deep reduction towards the essentials via someone who lives in LA and has all the context; he primarily trains celebrities. His outcome is routine health, aesthetics, and loving gratitude

there should be a female tim ferriss to invent four hour hotness maintenance ladies, if you had 4 hours per week to dedicate to maintaining hotness, what exactly would you prioritize?
almond mommy@poutypierrot

I don't think most men understand that hot women literally don't have time to have many hobbies because maintaining hotness is extremely time consuming. there are so many autistic females whose special interest is being hot.

People keep saying we’re in Idiocracy but President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho at his core wanted what was best for his people and when evidence presented itself he listened to experts to solve the problem. By all accounts a better leader than this.

Uhhh so incidentally, does anyone have a plan to prevent all the non-US citizen AI scientists from going to join foreign labs after they get bored of playing Wordle at work for a month, or are we just sort of planning on having the greatest counterproliferation failure since we deported Qian Xuesen in 1955 and gave Mao a rocket program?
Nathan Calvin@_NathanCalvin

Some quick takes: (1) Wow things are getting real. (2) The government's order focusing on prohibiting transfer to foreign nationals (even e.g. those living in the US, our close allies who help evaluate model safety in the UK, individuals who work at frontier labs like Anthropic) seems remarkably destructive, though is partially a result of the government using older legal authorities that were not designed for this kind of technology. (3) If you believe (as I do) that AI has profound ramifications for national security, then assuming the government will sit back and do nothing and tolerate explanations like "well jailbreaking is a hard technical problem" for cyber capabilities that used to be the crown jewels of the NSA, is not tenable. If this is how the government reacts to the current level of system capabilities in 2026, how do you expect them to react to whatever is possible in 2028? However, it is extremely important that the authorities that the government uses are legible, transparent, have opportunities for appeal, and are narrowly targeted. Those legal authorities do not currently exist, and in their absence, the government will reach for metaphorical sledgehammers instead of scalpels. (4) For that reason, it's extremely important that we create regulatory structures that are transparent and give recourse in the event that the government is overstepping or acting in an arbitrary manner. The alternative to passing such laws is not no regulation, it is regulation left primarily to national security authorities that are increasingly and evidently not fit for purpose.
