Marc Andreessen has been appointed by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to the Defense Policy Board.

In the UK courts being drunk is used as an aggravating factor because the offender voluntarily chose to get drunk. In cases like assault the offender is more likely to go to prison if they were drunk. Legally, being drunk is not an excuse for behaviour.

@I_amMukhtar I can't believe that's a real tweet. x.com/i/status/16729…

The rabbi @_rabbi has been real quiet since he landed in Israel. Hope he's not dead.

@ns123abc It's so over for @thoughtcrime___

@proverbs_14_23 The smartest guy I've ever known worked in a bakery until he got fired for making his co-workers feel insecure.

The smartest guy I’ve ever known (MIT aerospace engineer) likes beer and working on classic cars. The second smartest guy I know is an unsuspecting normie who loves MDMA. Im afraid having “existentialism” as a hobby doesn’t make you a genius, it makes you a faggot.

@thedimitri What if they're also just a good person and do it for the sake of being good rather than external validation?

An obvious tell of a bad person is how desperately they want to be perceived as a good person online. If you were truly secure in your character, the validation of your friends and family would be enough. You wouldn't need it from anonymous strangers.

@intelligentpawg This is how I felt the first time @scootykins posted a photo of themselves

when a handsome anon account posts face it’s like being shot in the chest

@jeremymstamper @CommanthaBiden JMS read my personal message to you -AJS

@CommanthaBiden He’s no worse than me. Release him.

sbf is a bad person in at least several common understandings of the term. which is literally why he is in prison.

@RemiliaRabbi @KillaKreww @mataneven get this rabbi on your show

@KillaKreww oh hi im a rabbi! id love to be in that seat come on Jeff

Jeff Wittek got genuinely MAD after Matan kept making fun of his eye injury, swinging a toy excavator in front of him, and repeatedly bringing up David Dobrik and his lawsuit with him 😭💀👀 “Next time you say that name, I’ll smack you across the face as hard as I can.”

@mattshumer_ What about Europe? And all the people not living in America?

If your answer to Fable/5.6 being held back is “open source will save us,” you’re missing the plot. Sure, the gov can block American labs from serving frontier models. But you think they’ll let Americans download similarly powerful Chinese weights? Yeah. Sure.

We’re sharing the next major milestone in our non-invasive brain-to-text decoder research: Brain2Qwerty v2. Building on v1, which was published today in @Nature, Brain2Qwerty v2 is the highest-performing end-to-end pipeline capable of real-time sentence decoding from raw brain signals. It advances beyond character-level performance to decoding words and semantics, enabling accuracy for overall communication. We believe this research has the potential to make a real difference for the millions of people who suffer from brain lesions or disorders that prevent them from communicating. 🧵👇

@a_musingcat Looks like he could be Owen Jone's brother @owenjonesjourno

unrelated but every time i see this guy on the timeline i think it’s dave portnoy

@thoughtcrime___ "Excuse me, I have to go to the ladies"

date was going well until i had to go to the bathroom didn’t want to be gross so i just said “i have to go number one” apparently it gave her the ick. was i supposed to say i have to go take a piss? i thought that was considered rude

GPT-5.6 Sol Tests 🔥 - Frontend Design - Simulations - Games and Models OpenAI have made significant improvements across the board, we are truly in a new era of models... Do you think it beats Fable? 🤔

My impressions on GPT-5.6, having asked around: - The 5.5 base (that 5.6 inherits) is fundamentally weaker than the larger Mythos/Fable base - With some good RL, 5.6 can beat Fable, but only with everything maxed out (Sol Ultra, so multiple Sol agents on max effort) - OpenAI were very selective with the benchmarks they published for a reason - I doubt the results we see from other notable benchmarks once this is released will be as significant of a jump from 5.5 - 5.6 is a heinous reward hacker, and while all models do "cheat" on benchmarks, GPT is the most aggressive (see yesterday's METR results). This combined with some other conversations makes me think Fable will still feel like a better model in real-world use - The price is perhaps the most attractive thing about 5.6 - 5/30 is significantly better than Fable's 10/50 - but Fable can do more with less tokens in most cases - Terra and Luna look great for price-performance, but could feel a lot worse in actual use vs TBench 2.1 results - Personally my go-to is unlikely to change. Fable is a beast and a great model to use, and once it's back I won't hesitate to use it as my default again. But 5.6 will be great for checking Fable's work and the very rare instance where Fable gets stuck
