@jakingly @Dr_Gingerballs The graph shows that higher partial pressure of CO2 changes blood pH. Can you see it?

@dextroambien @Dr_Gingerballs This has NOTHING to do with air composition. CO2 is a product of metabolism, if you breath less, it builds up from inside. Which literally explained in that wiki page but one would have to read..

This is one of the downsides to measuring and analyzing everything: it makes people neurotic. Air has about 21% oxygen, the rest being mostly nitrogen, nitrogen, and CO2. An increase in CO2 of 1000 ppm implies a decrease in oxygen of 0.1%. Humidity, or water vapor in the air, can displace oxygen on the order of 1%. So the nightly build up of CO2 this person experiences results in oxygen changes 10x smaller than natural variations due to humidity changes. There is no problem to solve here. The solution is to simply stop worrying about CO2 concentration.

@JuergenStrobel @Dr_Gingerballs Exactly! Not ‘inert’

@Dr_Gingerballs @dextroambien CO2 is toxic, same mechanism as CO but weaker.

@Janne_HG @Dr_Gingerballs exactly! hard to say something is ‘inert’ when the brain literally has receptors for it…

@Dr_Gingerballs @dextroambien Aaaaand that's an easy instablock. Dunning-Kruger too strong in this one.

@ESchillup @Dr_Gingerballs I was obviously referring to when it is present in blood, which, surprise surprise, contains H2O! You suck at biology.

@dextroambien @Dr_Gingerballs CO2 isn't acidic moron, you need H+ or OH- ions for something to be acid or basic. CO2 when dissolved in water, can react chemically and turn into carbonic acid, H2CO3. You suck at chemistry.

@dextroambien Not at these levels, it is buffered.

@Dr_Gingerballs it is acidic. It changes the pH of blood. Look it up

@dextroambien CO2 is inert. If CO2 was chemically reactive with human flesh, obviously the argument would be different.

@DrewPavlou It would take humans over a minute to differentiate whether a tweet of yours is about extremism? And they would have to search through all 109k of your posts even though you only care about the ones post October 7?

AI is legitimately amazing - for $400 in API credits I just used Claude Code to carry out a research task that would have cost at least $100,000 if I had hired a research consultancy and over $450,000 if humans had to literally replicate every classification the AI produced. And I still have literally no idea how to code - the first time I ever touched Terminal was like 3 weeks ago. So I did this all as a lay person. I will try to explain my task. Basically I'm preparing a submission to the Royal Commission into the Bondi Massacre. From October 7, 2023 to present I basically compiled what is possibly the largest public archive of Islamist extremist incitement and far-left incitement in Australia. I just began tracking it all obsessively from October 7 onwards because I always strongly believed that it would eventually end in a horrific atrocity like Bondi. Every time I encountered a horrific instance of Islamist extremist incitement or far-left incitement against the Jewish community, I basically posted it to my X. All up I chronicled maybe 5,000 to 6,000 seperate instances of Islamist incitement and far-left incitement. The problem is that these 5,000-6,000 important posts were buried amid all my other tweets - almost 110,000 posts overall. Given the limitations of the human mind it was impossible for me to recall every relevant post - I had forgotten so much of it. So I downloaded my entire Twitter archive - twelve ZIP files totalling around 700GB once you include all the legacy livestream data - then used Claude Code to extract just the actual text I'd posted, around 5GB. I then used Claude Code to write a script to analyse all 110,000 seperate posts I made after October 7 to isolate cases of far-left incitement and Islamist incitement. Claude Code operated for like 13 hours overnight. API costs were like $400 because Claude Sonnet 4.6 read every entry and produced a structured verdict: in-scope or not, confidence score, category tags, one-sentence rationale, hyperlinks. Claude produced 12 indexed PDFs including: - A full 1,700 page archive of all 6,000 relevant posts - A 663-page high-engagement subset - A 87-page key-incidents volume (Opera House riot, Wakeley church stabbing, etc) - A 162-page month-by-month trend report - A 253-page literary diary reconstruction of the period I then asked the same model to re-classify every in-scope entry by ideological source - was the perpetrator Islamist, progressive-left, far-right, etc. So it created further indexed PDFs totalling hundreds of pages chronicling instances of Islamist incitement and hundeds of pages chronicling instances of far-left incitement. Unsurprisingly the vast majority of anti-Semitic incitement that I chronicled from 2023 to 2026 came from the Australian far-left and Islamists: - 38% was Islamist, - 28.6% progressive-left, - 4% far-right With a significant amount of the balance involving cases of Islamist-left fusion. Where this is amazing is that if I had to do this without AI, I would have had to hire a full research consultancy. To replicate exactly what the AI produced, every classification with rationale, every analytical layer, runs to A$455,000 of labour

@XwitterUserSam @olgakhazan What is bay saving?

@dextroambien @olgakhazan This "they" seems to be pretty bay saving. x.com/lalakneebees/s…

They tell you like 3 million times while you're pregnant + right after you've given birth not to co-sleep

@Thejimpenman Do you mean vice-chancellor at the University of Canberra? I’m no fan of the man but you could have spent 10 seconds googling this…

Bill Shorten left politics and walked into a $990,000 a year job as Chancellor of the ANU. He has never run a university. He runs his network. Dominic Perrottet went from premier to BHP international relations. Joe Hockey went from treasurer to defence contracting. Politics in Australia is now a networking phase. Voters pay the bill.

@deedydas @phl43 ‘Most kids went to MIT’ does not mean ‘12% of kids went to MIT’

What do the smartest kids in the world do when they grow up? I did the largest study of ~18,000 International Olympiad medalists (IMO, IOI and IPhO) over the last 25yrs, arguably the sharpest analytical minds of the world in high school, to see where they ended up and traced ~50% of them. Founders of ~20 unicorns and ~7 decacorns and ~10 billionaires: OpenAI, Cursor, Stripe, Databricks, Perplexity, Ethereum, Cognition, Hyperliquid, Fireworks, Modal, Quora, Parallel, Cartesia, Wispr Most kids went to MIT, a whopping 12% of them, followed by Cambridge (7%) and Sharif (3%)! The career paths they chose (of those who graduated) were: — 36% Academia (professors) — 26% Other — 22% in Software / Tech — 12% in Quant / Finance — 5% Founders! The biggest employer was Google, by far, at 6%. Others interesting tidbits were: — 47 of them work at Jane Street (#3) — 38 at OpenAI (#5) — 15 at Anthropic — 8 at Cognition — 6 at Isomorphic Labs Olympiaders were 1500x more likely to be billionaires and 4000x more likely to be unicorn founders than the average person!

@tszzl @spqr_sulla even George Floyd?

@spqr_sulla we want to put a machine of unbelievable power in your hands personally for you to do with as you wish

A lot of people Coping and Seething in the comments because they misunderstand what the Architects of AI want. It’s not a chatbot. It’s a machine that can do anything a human can do better and faster. Tractors, harvesters, and early automation is a very poor parallel

@esjesjesj @jakerattlesnk Why do you spell it Mohamed when the post says Muhammad. Are you deadnaming them?

@jakerattlesnk Then what the fuck are you talking about "the end of our civilization"? Because SOME people are named Mohamed, "our" civilization is ending?

You realize this doesn’t mean that most new babies are named Mohammed right?

@boneGPT which part of this looks like a meth overdose… someone is showing their lack of stim experience!!!

there is no narcan for a meth overdose, they gotta cool his body down and monitor his heart so he doesn't have a heart attack or stroke or seizures survival rate is high but could have permanent damage to heart or brain

AGI but it’s having sex with your girlfriend for the first time again

@DJ_B0B @AlboMP which shifts more drivers onto public transport, inconveniencing those who were already using it!! Victoria is already seeing overcrowding issues. No such thing as a free lunch

@dextroambien @AlboMP Well a few states have already made PTV free so I think it's fair

JUST ANNOUNCED: Another cut in the fuel tax to save you a total 32c a litre.

@DJ_B0B @AlboMP So taxpayers are subsidising the big supermarkets too? Someone who drives might now spend 100$ per week on fuel alone. As a student I barely spend 100$ per week on goods TOTAL. Some small % of this is fuel, sure, but drivers are unfairly benefited here

@dextroambien @AlboMP Even if you don't personally drive, you surely consume goods that are delivered using fuel.
