Scary @Waymo moment in SF today - it overtook a Muni bus in the wrong lane at a signal, didn’t stop, and aggressively tried to squeeze between me and the bus. Had the bus driver and I not steered away, this could have been a serious incident.
Big fan of AVs, but perception ≠ judgment. Edge cases matter!

@scaling01 “Decode” is a dead giveaway though. Ask it to figure out what it means instead of decoding

@Docsthrowaway @DuTcHIIB @princeayyo This comment is pretty ironic if you know what actually ends up happening in this movie
English
@DuTcHIIB @princeayyo You clearly don't know what you're talking about. Good luck with that 😂 Why don't YOU ask the experts instead of sticking with your "movie knowledge?" Hell, even a simple google search would do it, but nah, you decided to die on the hill of voluntary idiocy...

@politicalmath @JeremiahDJohns You have to include what @JeremiahDJohns was quoting, which is suspiciously missing from your screenshot
English
I just want to highlight that, in this silly little twitter fight with @JeremiahDJohns , he has decided to lie to his readers about what I said. I think that's bad and he shouldn't do that.
English
@politicalmath @GirthyBurg @JeremiahDJohns I can’t fathom the thought process of seeing this specific graph, that you built yourself, and still saying “FEMA isn’t screwing over blue states”
English
@GirthyBurg @JeremiahDJohns Trump didn't have a 75% rejection rate. If you use the same methodology for both presidents, Trump's rejection rate caps out at 25% for blue.
You have to further manipulate the data (by removing all fire and emergency data from the set) to get the 75% rejection rate
English
Since @politicalmath specifically asked to be corrected, here's a correction (figures, links, github below). Summary:
* An independent analyst has replicated and verified the Politico chart
* The gap still exists whether you use states with all D Senators and Governor, majority Dem Sen/Gov, or just Dem Gov
* The gap still exists if you use natural disasters or all requests
* Even with the small sample size, the difference is statistically significant
* Trump himself specifically says he's doing this. When he denies aid, his press team will say things like "we're doing this because they shelter illegals". When he gives aid, he points out how often the state voted for him.

I asked where this data came from and I got no good answers so I went looking for myself. I'm really skeptical about this data so I'll walk through what I found and ask @JeremiahDJohns to correct my errors 🧵

I'm actually wondering if SOTA LLMs are any good. Let's test...
Claude Opus 4.6 is the Red Spymaster and he just gave "CAPTAIN 3," what are you picking?

Codenames is such a cool idea for a benchmark. Someone should bring that back.

@iwldvecameback @BMJYorston Unless OP is claiming to be an Oxford person they are not violating an in-group unspoken pattern (unlike the "German" guy do the American way of showing 3 fingers in the GIF).
If someone claimed to "have a PhD from Oxford" then it might potentially be a red flag

@arpitrage The Sultanate of Oman extended into modern day UAE and down to Zanzibar … oldest independent Arab state

Wait how did Oman get that bit of land adjacent to the Strait of Hormuz?

@peer_rich @denk_tweets I would avoid disclosing their user count, you should have redacted it imo

tyler cedric and i have a call with your team set up and planned
the “unsubscribe” came from an automation and i said it was embarrassing on my end
when we sold a feature we didnt knew we would depreciate it, that decision was made very recently
please share full context if you‘re already sharing emails
we also grandfather you and everyone else into whatever plan you have for the next 2 years
happy to jump on a call — cal.com/peer
English
what not to do as a startup:
cal[dot]com sold us on a feature that they internally knew they were soon deprecating
we spent a month building something using that feature only to find out ourselves this week
spent days trying to get in contact with someone from their team (we're paying users)
we emailed their founder twice and got hit with an "unsubscribe"
after later apologizing, their founder bailed on the call with our team at the last minute and had some entry level growth person take his place and dodge our questions
it's SO easy to do the little things right..
yet some startups still can't get out of their own way

@beherleader Women can and do enjoy LEGO sets, sim racing, aviation setups. You could have simply said "do things she doesn't enjoy" without the generalization
English
How NOT to be masculine
1. Invite your wife to do things women don't enjoy
2. Sulk when she doesn't want to do them
3. Fixate on her hurty words rather than focus on the underlying feelings they expressed
4. Sleep on the couch and stonewall her
5. Bury yourself in work and hint at divorce

@McFranchisee @mikemac323 @SawyerMerritt I don't get why you perceive it as a jab toward McD instead of a celebration for the diner
English
I’m not quite sure the point trying to be made is.
They have an extremely small menu so selling 700 of something isn’t surprising. Our menu is at least 10x their size.
Our average volume is $11k a day, across 14,000 restaurants. Our AUV is $4M, anytime a store hits around $6M, McD will build another to cannibalize off that restaurant.
Again, just not sure what’s being highlighted. Two different restaurants with 2 opposite strategies.

Tesla’s diner sold as many hamburgers in Q3 as the average McDonald’s does in the U.S., despite the diner having only opened on July 21st and that Tesla's burger costs ~2x as much (higher quality ingredients).
Tesla sold an average of 704 burgers per day.
Sawyer Merritt@SawyerMerritt
Tesla has revealed that they sold 50,000 Tesla Diner burgers in Q3, generating $675,000 in revenue. Oh, and some charging stats 😂

I love how underhanded sam is
already seen people in a/b tests getting served ads
what happened to that being a "trust destroying moment" and something openai wasn't even considering?
genuinely disheartening behavior, starting to think the shit that went down this time last year should've been allowed to happen, fuck altman

Are you ready for OpenAI to unleash the monetization slop upon the masses?
The real release of GPT-5 was the router and how they can reduce cost / compute for most users by routing to cheaper models.
Open has a big strategic shift in the works, and consumer purchasing will shift.
