Can we please stop pretending AI has any intelligence? Grok will tell you it can solve the Riemann hypothesis. So go ahead. Ask it to. grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5…

@InAHandBa5ket @DwagonFwame @wil_da_beast630 If your sister can't see the future, she's damn close to it. IQ may be a continuum, but just like "getting dressed by yourself" unlocks at 70ish, other stuff unlocks later. Clairvoyance is one of those unlocks. It's a shame most smart people believe it's a myth.

@DwagonFwame @wil_da_beast630 No I mean, for the most part, IQ isn't really as magical as people think. I'm in the 130s, but I'm not superhuman or anything. My sister is 150s and I did better in school than here 1/

Primate IQ is measured on special tests designed to estimate IQ for 1-5 year old illiterate children. This makes sense, because monkeys cannot read. Monkeys clearly do not have the same IQ scores as people in Albania, Nepal, India, Nigeria, etc. Bear in mind, the US tested score in 1953 was "85" in today's terms. Think about this.

@AnalyticaCamil1 @PancakeNation12 @calvinfroedge If you rotate Qeshm 90 degrees it looks just like Taiwan with an entrenched Chinese army on the other side of the mountains.

@PancakeNation12 @calvinfroedge Truthfully, I really don’t see any upsides from this. At best, USMC’s guys can take these islands only to be shelled by Iranian forces alongside infrastructure that USAF can already just blow up.

Genuinely, just cut this shit out. This is the same variety of jingoistic hubris that lead to the Russian military getting its teeth kicked in 30km outside of Kyiv. 99% of USMC’s successful reputation is a product of its very smart and very aggressive war planners (arguably the best in DoD), and I can almost guarantee to you and everyone else that they’re looking at this proposed operation and trying their best not to look at the White House and tell them to “go fuck yourselves with a rusty pipe.”

@DaveShapi The world where there's no next gen and everybody knows it.

This is the real AI psychosis isn't it? Generative AI is already used by a billion people globally and generates tens of billions of dollars of revenue, and all the companies investing in it are flush with cash (well, except OpenAI, lol). But yeah, in what universe is that a 'bubble'?

@Patryn36 @Hassaan_PHY Bingo. All physics research should be stopped. The physicists can work with the mathematicians until they resolve any of the dozen paradoxes they're up against. Math shouldn't have paradoxes. There's something wrong with it.

@Hassaan_PHY The problem with your stance is that you are being taught a belief system at that institution, not actually thinking critically. That belief system uses math that was conformed to a set of observations and does not reveal the actual mechanisms in play, the math blinds you.

1. Everyone else doesn't agree that physicists have lost the plot. There is a significant number of people who think this (often lay audience led astray by people like yourself), but certainly not everyone. Whoever is under the impression that everyone thinks this way is stuck in an echo chamber. 2. If a large number of people believe something, that doesn't make it true. It is more about public perception, which is clearly not dictated by facts (especially today). Large numbers of people have had many other erroneous beliefs in the past (a long list can be provided here) 3. Theoretical Physics isn't as successful in the 21st century as it was, say, in the first quarter of the 20th century. However, the reasons for this fact don't include the talking points that you have helped spread, e.g., "Physicists are lying for grant money". #physics #scicomm

@1n44n6 @skdh That sounds like profiling. No mass so it doesn't interfere; imparting energy and in multiple modalities so it can be detected and measured.

@skdh Here's a question I don't think anyone has ever asked: If you were an engineer designing this universe, what problem would you be trying to solve by having light behave as both a particle and a wave, and having no mass but imparting energy?

The double slit experiment is the probably most misunderstood experiment ever. I have no idea who created the myth that if you 'look' at one of the slits, then the particles (photons/electrons) stop behaving as waves. It's wrong! They of course STILL behave as waves! Because particles are also waves, always. Photons and electrons make a self-interference EVEN ON A SINGLE slit. Don't believe it? Below an actual measurement from a laser diffracting on a single/double slit from Wikipedia. What happens if you measure which slit the particle goes through is that you get no interference between BOTH slits. And no, you don't need a conscious observer for this. Believe it or not, there have actually been experiments where they had people literally look at a double slit to see if that makes any difference and the answer is no, it does not. The entire mystery of the double slit is in the path of the particle TO the double slit. Because it seems that the particle must "know" whether it WILL be measured at one of the slits before it even gets there. It must "know" whether to go through both or just pick one. Seems like the future influences the past? Not really, it just means you have a consistency condition on the time evolution.

tfw you just want a little data crunched in a browser extension so you knock it out in a couple days in typescript and then it turns out you're doing some pretty heavy crunching I have never regretted starting a project with rust/wasm. I have many times regretted not.

@amuse @jaketapper @grok 日本人ですが笑いました。日本人だってジョークくらいわかりますよ😛

FWIW Prime Minister Takaichi was born 20 years after Pearl Harbor

@DRBoguslaw @JohnFetterman Because the headline is an outright lie, as we've come to expect from Rolling Stone/VICE?

@DRBoguslaw I don't understand the problem. The briefing clearly says that the problem is "people are assuming these kids are threatening school violence." Which, yes, that is a problem. If you shut down a school because a kid threatened to pee outside it, that's worth investigating.

🚨🚨🚨NEW As leaders of the CIA, FBI, and NSA are grilled by congress this week, I got my hands on an intelligence dossier that lists a terrifying new threat: teenage pissers. Full docs at link in replies.

@PepePundit @HarshaN18987860 @lossfunk Not only did they give them docs, they gave them solved examples.

🚨 Shocking: Frontier LLMs score 85-95% on standard coding benchmarks. We gave them equivalent problems in languages they couldn't have memorized. They collapsed to 0-11%. Presenting EsoLang-Bench. Accepted to the Logical Reasoning and ICBINB workshops at ICLR 2026 🧵

@KaiLentit you forgot "singularity"

When the AI CEO sweats more than data centers.

@SandyofCthulhu The secret to fighting the government is convincing them you're too high to even show up to court. And then show up in the American flag, and make them cry.

Of course I know everyone is searching desperately online for their own American Flag suits, and I am here to report it's surprisingly hard to find Afroman's exact suit. There are plenty of suits with the motif. But not HIS suit. Maybe it's best that way, letting him be unique. Also I saw some online news that he was a "rapper" but man alive I have heard zero rap songs from him about this. I think they called him a rapper to dismiss him or make him sound more criminal.

@loftwah Gay unless you can fix an engine.

I’m a single guy in their forties who is fit, keeps a tidy house and who has taste when it comes to design and music. It should have been obvious right?

@NoahRevoy Why not just dump them in the woods with a knife, canteen, fishing hook, and Bic lighter and say "see you in a week."

If I were to start a private school, it would be a boys-only institution. All teachers would be male. Most would come from military backgrounds, with preference given to those with special forces experience. The structure would prioritize physical and practical development. Each morning would begin with physical training. Boxing. Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Obstacle courses. Firearms training. There would also be a strong emphasis on building. Shop classes. Hands-on work. The ability to construct something real. Even for someone who becomes an IT engineer, knowing how to build a chair matters. Real-world construction develops thinking. It trains problem-solving in a way abstract learning does not. Academic instruction would be concentrated. No more than three hours per day at a desk. That is sufficient to meet curriculum requirements and maintain academic competence. The rest of the day would be spent developing strength, discipline, and practical skill.

@HarshaN18987860 @lossfunk The point is if you give a senior engineer the brainfuck docs and say "add 2 numbers," they'd give you software that did that in like an hour and a half. Even if they've never touched brainfuck.

@lossfunk Bruh. Someone could publish a paper where the test dataset consists of tribal languages which LLMs would not have been trained on, claim credit, and put a 🚨 emoji in a post.

@HSchenewark @sweatystartup It's being used as an adjective to mean "sloppy, expensive, and lacking soul," not a proper noun. Uncapitalized is correct.

@sweatystartup You forgot to capitalize California but yeah I agree

Not using any capital letters is a mind virus ego contest. It has immaturity and california sweat pants all over it. Capitalize letters in text messages, emails and social posts or you look like a fool!

@Sam_Mindset @sweatystartup Grammar is an arbitrary quality standard imposed by society. If you're not able to meet an arbitrary quality standard, it's probably best if you stop thinking.

@sweatystartup “Or… maybe obsessing over capitalization just proves you peaked in high school English class. Some of us are too busy thinking to care about commas and caps.”

Yet another day where I decided "screw it I'll let AI write this code" and I wrote the code while it was "thinking" and cancelled it.

@ThisKwasior @Shyguymask99 It's nowhere near on par with Photoshop.

@Shyguymask99 We have this conversation every week on twitter. GIMP gets the job done, is not bloated in size and has on par features with PS in regards for image manipulation. Stubbornness to learn GIMP because PS is so easy to pirate is a deliberate Adobe way of controling your workflow

I feel validated that people hate GIMP now. Like 10 years ago in the 2010s everybody would recommend it like it's the best software ever, but when I tried it I found the UI insanely shit & confusing to work with. I quickly went back to paint .net and I still use it to this day.

@r_u_thinking @Shyguymask99 I learned it. I've been using it for over a decade. It's not very good.

@Shyguymask99 I could never do even the most basic things in gimp. It's not intuitive to use, at all. If you learned it, it was probably pretty good. Did anyone actually learn it, though? Or did they just recommend it?
