@jappleby Or...

What a fascinating outcome. I honestly thought the steroid-using athletes would shatter world records. After these performances, I think the takeaway has to be that most world-record holders are genetic freaks who maximized their natural abilities with training, and even substances can't get the next rung of athletes into that category. Which is arguably an even MORE interesting takeaway, because presuming training at the .001% level is fairly equal athlete to athlete, that means some humans truly are just built different in a way that isn't catchable.

@rawespresso Bro no private school fees on 120k, do the math. Earning that much has its benefits, you just eat out as much as you realistically want at Nando's... But none of that other stuff

Golden handcuffs are the most expensive trap in the UK professional class. You take a £120K job. The salary feels life-changing for the first 6 months. Then the lifestyle catches up — the mortgage on the bigger house, the kids' private school fees, the car finance, the holiday cottage in Cornwall, the partner who's also stopped earning to look after the kids. The £120K, once a luxury, has become the minimum required to keep the life running. The job becomes impossible to leave because the entire structure of your life depends on it. You stop questioning whether you actually like it. You start measuring everything against the salary you'd be giving up. The lads who 'made it' in the City, in law, in tech management are the most trapped people in the country. Their version of freedom is being able to afford to retire by 55, after 25 years of work they couldn't escape from. The lads with no salary and no fixed costs have more genuine freedom at 27. What looks like the prize from the outside is actually the bait. The salary holds you in place better than any contract could.

@Haqiqatjou Bro give them some actual credit. They stick together and prioritise education, and maybe they actually are smarter...would it surprise you

jewish genius and hardwork beats all the odds. that's why they're chosen

@brandonjcarl This is an ai post. Off my timeline you go. Blocked

I’ve grown tired of AI posts. Not unsettled. Not bored. Tired. Every timeline is the same recycled theater. A carousel generated by the same model explaining why originality matters. We are drowning in synthetic confidence. An ocean of polished emptiness pretending to be insight. The strange part is not that AI can write. The strange part is how quickly humans surrendered the burden of having something real to say. Most AI content has the same fingerprints: perfect rhythm, predictable structure, optimized readability, zero intellectual risk. Every sentence lands. Nothing cuts. Nothing lingers. Nothing survives contact with reality. Because the model has learned the median of human expression. And the median is sterile. We trained machines on the internet. Then humans started imitating the machine trained on humans. Now everyone sounds like the compressed average of everyone else. The flattening is accelerating. Founders sound identical. Consultants sound identical. Marketers sound identical. Even rebellion now arrives pre-formatted in bullet points and em dashes. People think AI’s danger is misinformation. It isn’t. The real danger is epistemic homogenization at planetary scale. A civilization where language becomes optimized for engagement instead of discovery. Where originality is penalized because prediction engines reward familiarity. Where thought itself becomes autocomplete. That is the trajectory. And yet, almost nobody notices because the content is smooth enough to bypass scrutiny. The future will not belong to people who can use AI. That becomes table stakes almost immediately. The future belongs to people who can still perceive. People who can observe something before consensus names it. People willing to sound wrong before they sound smart. People capable of producing an insight no model would predict because it has never appeared frequently enough in the training data. In other words: the scarce asset is becoming genuine cognition. Not productivity. Not prompts. Not “AI fluency.” Actual thought. We do not need more AI-generated content. We need more humans using AI to pursue ideas dangerous enough, strange enough, and true enough that no machine would have generated them first. So we flip the script. Stop using AI to sound impressive. Use it to think further than you could alone. Show them something they haven’t seen. Something uncomfortable. Something remarkable. Something that risks failure instead of optimizing engagement. Because 100% of the posts that are AI written are competing in the same statistical center of gravity. And the center is already overcrowded. The edge is where the future gets invented. (Sarcasm)

@larsencc Skill issue

We spend billions training models to be geniuses and then 40% of the prompt is begging them to return valid json. Fascinating tech.

@academic_la Have to be honest with you. You guys are kinda smart, and stick together very very well. Why on earth else are you able to wield such disproportionate power? But special in terms of quality as human beings (kindness, campassion, justice).... No effing way

If there is one thing I wish Jews, our haters and our lovers understood, its that we are not special. We are not the most ancient people. Did not invent monotheism. Did not suffer more than anyone. Are not more privileged than anyone. Are not chosen. Are not uniquely inspiring or evil. We are just another bunch of people and that is ok. The uniqueness of Judaism is a myth.

@TheIDSmiths Yo is that what you have to say... And you apparently have 23k followers, that must be an insane level of bots. Listen, he is top 0.00001% of what he does, maybe he takes his life processes seriously. That's all I'm saying bro, chill out

@StephenBro18880 Shut up cunt

"I podcasted worse" has left me reeling. I've been sat on a park bench for an hour just trying to process it

@supertolerant This resonates. We had McDonald's six times a year when it was a special occasion... Now we eat out twice a week!

I was young in the 80s/90s in the UK. I don’t remember my parents ever going out to eat, except when we were on holiday (in the UK). I don’t think they ever took me to a fast food restaurant, or ordered takeaway food. People today have no clue how working people lived. /1

@fed_speak Look at him. Look at you. Now look at him again, now look at you again. Go for a walk and maybe realise there is something you can learn from someone at the pinnacle of their field.

This is legit some of the weakest ass shit I’ve ever heard

@alexhurshey @TheIDSmiths And his podcast is so successful because...his dad owns youtube? Quit being a loser hater, go out and make something of your life

@TheIDSmiths He probably thinks he is some giga mind that has a very hard job When in reality if he disappeared tomorrow nobody would care I read his entire company was basically bought by a German dude who was the one that made it successful He then claimed the credit after the fact

@OfficialLoganK @jbscript Bad logo, you have to explain it. Damn

@jbscript it’s an S for Studio : )

Google AI Studio logo went from what? to huh?

@IslamicSH_ What on earth is this. Have shame, blocked

“The Arabs brought the Revelation, the Persians gave civilization, and the Turks gave blood to Islam.”

@TheCharlesDowns @1NCRDB1 @JaxsonDart Man you hate filled dude. Take a look at yourself. Anyway, blocked

During the NFL draft, Abdul Carter (@1NCRDB1) wore an Islamic political chain while his family showed up in full burqas. Funny how Abdul loves shoving his religion and politics down America’s throat but melts down when his teammate Jackson Dart (@JaxsonDart) attends a Trump rally. The left are such hypocrites.

@YvetteCooperMP Oh now you speak up. You are beyond pathetic

The E1 settlement plans in the West Bank are egregious.   With international partners, we are clear: these settlements  are illegal and threaten a viable Palestinian state.   gov.uk/government/new…

@DiscussingFilm Cancelled after one season. Poor writing. Bookmark it.

First trailer for ‘VOUGHT RISING’, starring Jensen Ackles and Aya Cash. Coming to Prime Video in 2027

@MMAJOEYC Why are you so biased towards muslims. Are you muslim yourself? It's a great thing, but just be open with it. I don't understand you

A little birdie told me this might be for an interim LHW title. The UFC owes 1 to Ankalaev for fighting through serious injury & with Ulberg on the sidelines for an unknown period of time

@bort17 @badbirb @tomfgoodwin You are 100% accurate. Life will go back to as it was when OpenAI followed Anthropic pricing... For me and my team at least... I'm enjoying this period of absolute magic while it lasts. Hermes + Telegram + GPT 5.5 is magic right now

@badbirb @StephenBro18880 @tomfgoodwin I don't deny the tools can be put to use. Problem is they are baiting people to become dependent on it before they switch to maximize profits. What seems like a great deal now will be a huge expense or limitation once they dominate the market, and small devs will be scewed.

All I want to know is what are these people making. That’s all. Maybe it’s taking a while but I’m not seeing anything that needs to exist.

@therealKripke I hate to say it but you are not a very good writer. There must have been another reason why season 1 was so good. I don't care enough to investigate.

And thanks for the free blue check mark I guess?

HAHAHAHAH. He's posting. MULTIPLE TIMES. Also I have notes on his joke writing. #TheBoys @TheBoysTV

@tomfgoodwin Maybe that's not a good thing for society overall, that's a separate question but the productivity gains are real. Being 100x doesn't mean we've invented an interdimensional portal or magic, it's just things getting made incredibly quicker and cheaper

@StephenBro18880 By telling me what problem it solves and then if it’s a problem I have I’ll gladly listen
