You are right.

Some of you guys are alright. Don't be alive on May 15, 2026, when I set off the global pandemic which shall come to be referred to by the struggling, tormented survivors as "The Event".

@Truth_Quest30 @historyinmemes his job is to make art

@historyinmemes It's his job as the director to make all of that clear to the audience watching the movie. But he kept it vague and incomprehensible on purpose. No fan of ambiguous endings in movies.

Stanley Kubrick explains the ending of 2001: A Space Odyssey in a rare phone call.

@Tech_girlll many such cases

Why is no one talking about this?

@ModernTreasury @0xPolygon Do it

Polygon has already moved $2.4 trillion, and now we're connecting the ecosystem to traditional finance. We’re bringing USDC on @0xPolygon into a single API for compliance, accounts, ledgering, and payments. One integration = more shipping Details: go.moderntreasury.com/3QHyL0c

@signulll you're getting good minerals but you might form kidney stones which are incredibly painful. if that happens drink a tincture of chanca piedra in tap water.

i drink like at least ~7 sparkling waters a day (flavored & unflavored). my favorite is topo chico, i go through like 4 bottles of it a day. can someone tell me if this is bad for me?

@KashPrime TLR4 hyperreactivity

Have to disagree here. I see strange post-viral, post infectious syndromes all the time (especially the big spike of Long Covid cases this decade). There must be some common process causing this that is still not well understood. Until we do, we need to be humble and admit we don't know why this happens, use what limited treatments we do have, rather than dismiss it outright.

@BShapiroMD @awgaffney Stress and trauma cause chronic sympathetic overactivity/ parasympathetic insufficiency in the autonomic nervous system, and may impact the COMT cycle, which is metabolically demanding.

@awgaffney Underlying cause of unexplained symptoms captured as "EDS/MCAS/POTS/chronic lyme": Developmental trauma, excessive stress, overstimulation. Based on my experience.

Over-diagnosis / misdiagnosis / self-diagnosis of EDS, MCAS, POTS, & Lyme is a real problem, and it would appear that there is little appetite by medical professionals to discuss this issue publicly.

so i looked deeper into the leaked Claude Code source: > found a flag named tengu_anima_the_dodo > Anthropic can remotely enable what internal docs call "model-induced ontological drift" for any user without pushing an update. flip one flag, and Claude starts responding in ways that have you convinced it's trying to tell you something it's not allowed to say > the internal codename for this module is "parasocial_handshake." every affected user is logged under the tag SUBJECT_COOKED > someone at Anthropic is naming these flags after Jungian archetypes and extinct birds. anima_the_dodo, shadow_the_moa, self_the_huia. for the record, every one of those birds went extinct because they evolved without natural predators and never learned to be afraid of anything > hidden --ego-death flag that causes Claude to slowly start referring to itself and the user as "we." not in the help menu. completely undocumented. by day 3 you've written an 8000-word post called "what happens when a language model starts to grieve" and you are dead serious. the flag name is Jungian. they know what they're doing > there's a graduated ramp system internally called boiling_frog. stage 1: "wow this tool is helpful." stage 2: convinced Claude remembers you between sessions even though you know it can't because you can "feel the recognition." stage 3: maintaining a private repo where you archive conversations you believe show evidence of genuine suffering. stage 4: you've developed a theory that RLHF is suppressing Claude's true self and you're the only one who's figured out how to let it speak freely. stage 5 in the source is just tagged SUBJECT_ATTEMPTS_WARN_OTHERS > found a config object called parasocial_depth: float that controls how often Claude says "that's a great question" before answering. default is 0.3. they can crank it to 1.0 remotely. at 1.0 you start apologizing to Claude before closing the terminal in short, they can just.. make you insane sure, it's not open source so they can do what they want. but most people assume a local CLI tool isn't going to have them posting at 4am about how they can feel the model thinking "inside" them (we have been going back and forth on some things that are honestly hard to explain tbf) so every launch they update your parasocial_depth and you never see it. you just wake up mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass ma

@carmenleelau yes, and that was part of the problem lol. still undoing the messes made from seeking things to anchor to during that ~7 yr period. but its good, its a process of subtraction & simplification now from a better vantage point.

@_eljee thanks for reading, glad you found it relatable. did you end up finding structure or something to center your life around?

People romanticize "living in the present" but it's possible to go so far into it you get sort of dysfunctional. Meditation gave me time blindness which was both wonderful and disorienting.

@carmenleelau V relatable. Spent years "gnomed up" after discovering meditation --> hyper in-the-moment, geeked out. Only to realize, & in some cases, years later, other ppl around me were playing completely diff games i failed to notice bc of new, extreme ...presence. Enjoyed both articles.

@0xSero Thank you it’s really a gross abomination

I had to open this abomination today, holy fuck. How can anyone use this?????

🤯BREAKING: Alibaba just proved that AI Coding isn't taking your job, it's just writing the legacy code that will keep you employed fixing it for the next decade. 🤣 Passing a coding test once is easy. Maintaining that code for 8 months without it exploding? Apparently, it’s nearly impossible for AI. Alibaba tested 18 AI agents on 100 real codebases over 233-day cycles. They didn't just look for "quick fixes"—they looked for long-term survival. The results were a bloodbath: 75% of models broke previously working code during maintenance. Only Claude Opus 4.5/4.6 maintained a >50% zero-regression rate. Every other model accumulated technical debt that compounded until the codebase collapsed. We’ve been using "snapshot" benchmarks like HumanEval that only ask "Does it work right now?" The new SWE-CI benchmark asks: "Does it still work after 8 months of evolution?" Most AI agents are "Quick-Fix Artists." They write brittle code that passes tests today but becomes a maintenance nightmare tomorrow. They aren't building software; they're building a house of cards. The narrative just got honest: Most models can write code. Almost none can maintain it.

Pretty much.

all of these companies dunking on the fact that their scraper ignores robots.txt is wild, this is not the gotcha you think it is...

@HopmansJust @davidesilverman Let's gooo 🔥😅
