@AmandaAskell Using Claude to simulate IFS-style psychological aspects for self-reflection. Built a QC system to validate when LLM is accurately vs bullshitting. Recently had a heart attack and the framework worked under crisis conditions. Thought you might find the methodology interesting

According to @CityCastVegas, Area 15 is now charging for parking — unless you have a Nevada license plate and a smartphone to scan a QR code. (You also have to scan to pay.) I despise being asked/required to have a smartphone on me at all times (which I don’t).

@Skacey @nickgillespie As countries begin to manufacture goods there is an upward slope in quantity slowly building efficiencies. As countries automate their manufacturing base labor force reduces. It’s pretty universal. It’s a pretty simple concept, and this is an efficient metric

Manufacturing jobs as percentage of the workforce peaked during World War and have been declining for decades, mostly due to automation (we produce much more with fewer workers). Tariffs will not bring them back any more than they preserved them.

Capability builds purpose. If you are capable, why are you not applying your capability. If you lack purpose, what capability do you have or are pursuing?

We’ve entered the age of neurodiversity, precision medicine, and “bio-individuality,” but we still assume that malnutrition looks the same around the world. Is it time to move beyond the model of the universal patient? nyer.cm/sV4vgj8

The great Julia Child once said in 1995: “I don’t eat McDonald’s fries after the nutritionists erroneously took out beef tallow & replaced it with their nutritionist oils” I couldn't agree more. h/t @DoctorTro

@Apple LOVE that I could order and get a replacement iPad on the same day. HATE that I have NEVER once been able to transfer my data from an old device to a new device. Still true a decade later. Yes, I know it's supposed to work, yet here we are... ...again
