Remember, none of this would be happening if this miracle did not occur. Trump is the most important president of our lifetime and his election saved the country from abject failure and decline. God bless the troops and the fact he survived this.

@CynicalPublius Keep the fire of Plato alive my friend. The masses have no clue what tyranny of masses mean, nor how long it has been a threat to humanity, or that the founders of our great nation ensured it's dangers were as minimuzed as possible in the republic. Teach!

Honestly, I am sick and tired of Democrats claiming that because a majority of Virginians voted in favor of that gerrymander monstrosity that the action was therefore right and just. I have a question for Carter Elliott, IV and every other braindead Democrat: If a majority of the voters approved seizing all of your money and possessions just because they want to take your stuff, would that be right and just? People cannot vote to do things that violate the U.S. Constitution or a state constitution. This is not a new concept.

@TheOfficerTatum He was sucked into the engine. Eeesh.

⚠️WARNING: A man jumps a fence at Denver International Airport & runs onto active runway and is struck & killed by Frontier Flight 4345 during takeoff. The Airbus A321 was doing 146 MPH on impact. Engine fire erupted. 231 passengers evacuated via emergency slides. 12 injured. FBI & NTSB now investigating how he bypassed one of America's busiest airports.

Karen Bass is afraid to debate. She’s bailing out.

@Cressche @HaveWeAllGoneM1 No, it's Alberta that will be the 51st. The rest of you will flail around a bit then ask for inclusion.

@HaveWeAllGoneM1 More disrespectful than calling Canada the 51st state? Fuck all the way off

Obama dining with Canadian PM Mark Carney tonight, while Buttigieg and Slotkin fly in tomorrow for a closed-door Liberal Party strategy session? This isn’t a coincidence…it’s a deliberate middle finger to the Trump administration and the American people. Mark Carney and U.S. Democrats openly coordinating against an elected government. The disrespect is off the charts

@Dr_Gingerballs I hope you are right. What I see with adoption of these things in production environments tells me there are a lot of shitty walls going up though.

@Texfile It’s still a little different. Sloppy workmanship is still purposeful, not stochastic. It’s the 1000 iterations that is important. One makes money before their reputation destroys them. The other loses money until their reputation destroys them.

An analogy for why I believe current AI coding agents will not survive in a meaningful way long term. First, what is an AI coding agent? It’s a large language model trained on all of the open source code available on the Internet, attached to some sort of loop. You ask it to create a program that has some functions, and provide it with details about how it must operate. The output process then follows: 1. The LLM outputs code as a guess. 2. The looping tool evaluates the code in some way based on stated functional requirements. 3. If the code does not pass, query the LLM to make another guess. 4. Continue until an exit condition is satisfied or you run out of compute. It may not seem like it, but this is just iterative, fuzzy search optimization, just over written words. The utility of the system depends on the quality of the guesses, the evaluation mechanism, and the optimization strategy. The quality of the guesses depends on the quality of the training dataset. Does the training dataset contain the code snippets needed to make your request? For simple and common requests, the answer is yes. If you just need an efficient sort routine in a language you aren’t fluent in, you can get the model to make one for you and it might save you 10 minutes. Not insane speed up but definitely compounds over time. Here the coder knows what they want exists, knows how the sort algorithm is supposed to work, and just needs one whipped up in a new language they are building in. The expert saves some time. Integration into the codebase is still done by the human. It’s basically fancy autocomplete. For more complex requests, such as multi function routines which require a large amount of architectural design, the agents start to fall apart. This is because the likelihood that someone has built exactly what you wanted goes down quickly as the size of what you want increases. Here enters the loop. The agent producers hope that your request is similar enough to a range of existing code that they can guess a workable version by interpolating (and sometimes extrapolating) between solutions. So they make a guess with some randomness applied, evaluate, and modify the guess based on the results. Anyone who has done iterative optimization can identify a lot of the issues that occur in these systems. You might get stuck in a suboptimal state, where all the next guesses are worse than the current guess, even though the current guess isn’t an acceptable solution. The output seems like it’s almost there but not quite. The user then keeps requesting more iterations, hoping to go from 90% to 100% that never comes. There may also be degeneracies in the sample space, and you might get something that passes the criteria but is sloppy, nonsensical, or ridden with unnecessary bloat under the hood. Like a root finder that just won’t find the root you are looking for. And so in the course of writing, say 1000 lines of code, the agent has actually written 1M lines of code, iteratively generating and praying it can pass off as acceptable. The user never sees most of this, just told the system is “thinking.” When all is said and done, that 1000 lines of code required the generation of millions of lines of code, mostly thrown out. Now to get to the analogy. Think of the agent as a bricklayer and you have asked for a brick wall. You specify color, pattern, accents, etc. But the bricklayer isn’t very skilled, and decides to lay bricks stochastically. First, he evaluates each brick after placement. Thickness of seams, alignment, angle, etc. if it is wrong, he breaks it out and tries again. For every brick in the wall, he lays 100 bricks and wastes 99. Then he decides to go faster, only evaluating every 10 ft of wall. If there are more than 10% errors, he destroys it and rebuilds. For every 10 ft he lays 1000’s of ft.

@RealBrittHughes Free shit has been around a while.

This sounds cool. But wait. 400 diapers will last a family with a newborn approximately five weeks. The program will cost the state approx. $12.4 million this year alone. That money will be funneled through a company called Baby2Baby, which will then provide their branded diapers to 400 participating in hospitals (California has over 500 hospitals in total.) Meaning that instead of lowering taxes and letting families keep their own money to buy essentials like diapers, California takes their money, pumps it through a “nonprofit” that has overhead and whose CEO made $240,000 in 2024, to provide a “free” service available only in certain locations, and that you could have bought yourself for much cheaper.

I like your thinking. This approach assumes quality matters. There are billions of shitty walls in the world and even more terrible apps and code. AI filling those needs isn't going away. I think you are right for things that matter, that must work, you don't use this stuff, but the ease and allure of quick and dirty approaches is why building inspectors make money exposing shitty construction jobs on YouTube.

At the end, he wasted thousands of walls to generate one wall that is within 90% of specification. The owner of the wall of course is unsatisfied and moves on to another contractor to start over. In the real world, that contractor would be out of business nearly instantly. That one job would bankrupt him. But he is determined, so he gives his services away for free to entice customers in, eating the losses to gain market share. Meanwhile, the media tells the world nonstop that this bricklayer is revolutionizing brick walls and will upend the entire bricklaying system with his revolutionary approach. So he has a line of customers who want to see his work, which he will offer them for nearly free. Everyone becomes obsessed with brick walls, which are now free, and spend all of their time dreaming about all of the brick walls they can build for themselves. Soon, the amount of bricks required starts to consume significant portions of the economy. Who’s going to make all of the bricks? Where will they be stored? Where will they be thrown away? The world wasn’t designed to house this many bricks. Soon everyone is trying to make bricks to sell to the bricklayer, who consumes more bricks than ever. Master bricklayers start going out of business because they can’t compete on price. The media praises our bricklayer as he is clearly so much more efficient. They predict that master bricklaying is dead. But of course, eventually our bricklayer runs out of money and can no longer operate at a loss. He begins to raise prices. He blames the brick makers, saying he is constrained by supply. Customers start to sour on the product, as it’s lower quality than master bricklayers’ yet now starting to become even more expensive. Some of the walls start falling down, but now it’s too expensive for customers to purchase a new one. Demand dries up. Buyers remorse creeps in. Eventually, the demand crush causes the bricklayer to finally go under, having consumed the resources for 1000x or more walls than were actually built. In the wake of the collapse is a world filled with shoddy walls, many that have been destroyed or fallen apart. The economy, reworked to make bricks, now has more bricks than will ever be needed. Broken bricks are everywhere. The world spent $2T on bricks and it’s all a wasteland of write offs. AI agents are bricks.

Tariffs are bringing back factories and putting hundreds of thousands of Americans back to work. More proof that TARIFFS WORK!

@Ne_pas_couvrir Just imagine this guy saying this to Dana White face to face.

For the left, the solution to having the ‘wrong’ consciousness is always gulags or graves.

@LydiaMoynihan @IAmPoliticsGirl needs another facelift to overcome the year and a half of Trump winning. Her face is literally a map of defeat. Gotta love a good karen hag for ratings though!

If Tennessee’s redistricting is racist, why is it about to elect a Black Republican woman to Congress?

@EYakoby They look like they care about climate change

The Green Party in the UK celebrate victory. Does this look like Britain?

@SenatorBanks Vader should have thrown him down the hyperlift shaft. Major fail.

This guy was hanging-out with Obama on Monday. He was a top surrogate for both the Biden and the Harris campaigns. He’s as mainstream as it gets on the left. The left has a major problem and they need to stop mainstreaming political violence.

Where is Eric swallowswell? What happened to that story?

@DavidAd65794047 @mattvanswol Nice ratio

@mattvanswol 4,000 views in a matter of minutes and less than 400 likes. HOLY Bot filled Account Batman. No wonder your propaganda arse shows up kn everyone's timelines.🙄 Must be nice getting paid $10's of thousands of dollars a month to rage bait and fear monger Americans.

🚨HOLY CRAP!!!! Charlotte NC Mayor Vi Lyles has announced she is RESIGNING on June 30th, just 6 MONTHS after being re-elected. In the wake of Iryna Zarutska's murder, Lyles wrote, "We will never arrest our way out of issues such as homelessness and mental health..."

@mattvanswol She cared more about the guy who killed Iryna is the irony. These people think there is some way to save the criminals and insane, just so long as it's someone else who does it, with someone else's money and it's someone else who pays with their life when it goes wrong.

@BRyvkin This started just after 9/11. John stewart bloviating his holier than thou political opinions to college kids signified the end of late night. That bled into everything from there as the LA theatre kids felt it was their activist right and began writing politics into everything.

@TheJewishIdea People have forgotten that isis is the most barbaric and sadistic group of murderers on the planet. They rival the SS in this regard and there is no redemption for the crimes they committed in Iraq and Syria. They make the Aztec's look nice.

Why has Australia let in one of the most evil ideologies in human history into their country?

We are fully into the 2026 election phase where they tell you all the crazy homeless, trans kids for palestine, endless crime and theft, and Somali fraudsters with learing centers are normal and have been normal for years, but it's trump that is the problem.

@Carollee247 @Victorshi2020 Yeah, she should have been. She had warnings of a firestorm for days, multiple requests from LA fire for more trucks and water. She absolutely should have been there with a bucket, ladle, spoon or thimble, but the bitch was in Ghana raising money for people that DONT LIVE IN LA.

@Texfile @Victorshi2020 I guess she should've been there with her fucking fire hose you fucking weirdos

A couple takeaways from the LA mayoral debate tonight: Nithya Raman is not LA’s Zohran Mamdani. No where close. No serious person in LA believes Spencer Pratt should be mayor. Karen Bass hasn’t been perfect, but she’s got a record & results to prove it.

@GrageDustin Washington DC has the lowest crime rate in 30 years because of Trump. LA needs a massive change and Spencer is it.

Nithya Raman really has no response to drugs and homelessness being bad. She has to resort to calling Spencer Pratt a MAGA Republican rather than giving a plan on how to fix problems she created. Spencer Pratt is hilarious and relatable. Dude is going to be the next Mayor.
