@thestanduppod Me too after 45 years I’m on a free o/s and it feels great #omarchy

@Ric_RTP But her emails?!?!?!

The Yale professor who accurately predicted the entire Iran war just said World War III is about to start with 90% certainty. He explained exactly how it starts, who triggers it, and why NOBODY can stop it. Professor Jiang made 3 predictions in 2024 that all came true: 1. Trump would win the election 2. He would start a war with Iran 3. The US would lose that war Now he has made 8 NEW predictions and every single one is terrifying... The war in Iran was never about Iran. It was about saving the US dollar. America's empire runs on the petrodollar where every country must use dollars to buy oil. But when America froze $200 billion in Russian assets after Ukraine, it told the world the dollar is a political weapon. So Russia, China, and Iran started building a trade bloc to ditch the dollar entirely. These 3 countries cover the entire Asian continent and can build railways connecting their economies while cutting America out. Trump's plan was to bomb Iran's leadership and watch them surrender like Venezuela did in January. But Iran is a mountain fortress with 92 million people and 31 independent armies across 31 provinces each designed so no single strike can wipe them out. 6 weeks in, decapitation failed. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz, attacked US bases across the Gulf, and started charging ships $2 million per crossing to fund their war. And here's where it becomes a world war... Russia's grand strategy is the Third Rome doctrine. If Iran falls, Russia's southern border is exposed and both Russia's trade corridor and China's Belt and Road run directly through Iranian territory. Losing Iran means permanently losing access to the Middle East and Africa. So Russia enters the war. When Russia enters, China follows. They reinforce Tehran from east and north, provide financing, and Russia puts Iran under its nuclear umbrella taking tactical nukes completely off the table. Professor Jiang put the probability at 80 to 90%. And while the world watches the Middle East, North Korea is making its move: The US pulled THAAD missile defense out of South Korea for Iran operations. Seoul sits 20 minutes of artillery from the North Korean border with 25 million people exposed. North Korea doesn't even NEED to attack. They just threaten. South Koreans are rich with everything to lose. North Koreans have nothing to lose. Simple extortion. Nobody is coming to help because America is stuck in the Middle East. But the prediction that will BREAK the internet is this one: Trump gets a THIRD term. Professor Jiang laid out two constitutional loopholes. First is Trump runs as VP under Don Jr. or Vance, they win, the president steps down, Trump takes over through succession. The 22nd Amendment bans being elected president more than twice but says nothing about becoming president through succession. The second option is even simpler: By 2028 America is at war on multiple fronts with a draft in effect so Trump invokes emergency war powers and delays the election just like Zelensky did in Ukraine. And the draft is already real. Automatic registration starts in December. Males 18 to 24 are entered into the system automatically. The Department of War literally PUBLISHED the playbook online: - Secure the Western Hemisphere as US territory which explains Greenland, Canada, Venezuela, Cuba, Panama - Force NATO to fight Russia - Strangle China through maritime choke points - Convert civilian factories into weapons production (the Pentagon already told Ford and GM to prepare to STOP making cars and start making munitions) His final advice was genuinely one of the realest things I've heard all year: We will need leaders. Not politicians or billionaires. Average people who knock on their neighbor's door during a blackout and say let us figure this out together. Because when empires collapse, and he believes America's collapses within 10 years, the people who survive built community before they needed it.

@OrevaZSN I mean you could learn AI.

I'm tired of people acting like the only reason school exists is to create a workforce. Education is for teaching humans how to learn so that they will continue learning their entire lives. AI stunts that ability.

@lady_valor_07 Too low. A large table is more work and typically lingers costing her other customers tipping 15% or more. A lot of places apply a fixed tip to big tables probably for this very reason.

@Tesla_Analyst @parisofprairie I mean my Corolla cruise control stays between the lines and adjusts speed with traffic and applies the brakes when necessary. You’re half way to safety for next to nothing. The other half is an air tag device broadcasting and receiving other cars vectors around it.

@OneSirMeow @dhh All I know is my Omarchy says already copy fail patched unlike mine at work :/

@dhh How do you feel about supply-chain attacks?

What a delightful TUI! Next version of Omarchy will ship it as a lazy-installed default. So you can just type ghui and it'll get pulled, just like we do with opencode, codex, etc. github.com/basecamp/omarc…

@BrianSpragge @dhh My disk is like 3% full and that’s my small disk lol

@dhh I actually like having all the random programs on Omarchy. It’s a great way to test new/old programs and learn different techniques of how they implement things. I can uninstall what I won’t use, or leave them because storage space is never a shortage for what I do.

@RoboCanvas @dhh Run it in a vm on fadora?

@dhh I appreciate that, but I want the security and framework fedora brings, with the freedom and creativity of omarchy.

Omarchy 3.7 will make it trivial to theme the boot unlock screen. And any theme can offer a variant 🤩

@mitchellh I like GitLab. Disclaimer: I own. 10 shares of their stock >.<

Ghostty is leaving GitHub. I'm GitHub user 1299, joined Feb 2008. I've visited GitHub almost every single day for over 18 years. It's never been a question for me where I'd put my projects: always GitHub. I'm super sad to say this, but its time to go. mitchellh.com/writing/ghostt…

@unclebobmartin We dont all have the same base pairs. Because we all evolved in different conditions. But we all evolved equally. The Universe is optimizing - reflecting that. And what they are saying is that despite our differences we should treat each other equally. We are all similar DNA.

Have you ever stopped to wonder what the term self evident means in the declaration of independence? Is it self evident that all men are created equal? Do you believe that’s true? If so, that value must be woven into the structure of the universe. That’s the only way it could be self evident.

.@dhh haha, Testing the new claude.ai/design ...crazy idea to skin a site using the Omarchy theme you're on... Worked better than expected. JSFiddle took that one file and split it into js and css. Gonna build it into WordPress GeneratePress theme. jsfiddle.net/malatmals/d0sp…

@akoo1010 @Scobleizer I think cuz you’re focused on the work-arounds to a bad situation. A ruminating person might just sit in the bad and not come up with working contingencies. A parallel could be airplane pilots. They have all sorts of mechanisms, checklists, extra fuel for diversions etc

@Scobleizer How is imagining every possible bad thing that could go wrong, like M Phelps did, different from ruminating?

One of the most interesting neuroscience reads I have ever consumed. How you should train your brain.

@dhh Just noticed they added a higher end cpu - maybe because I gave feedback it was conspicuously missing. You can than me. Didn’t go as far as preloaded but u know how it is.

One nice thing about being on Intel is that DP-alt mode Just Works. Never was able to get any AMD laptop to work consistently with Thunderbolt and the Apple 6K XDR. There were hacks you could do, special cables etc, but the Dell XPS Panther Lake just works.

@dak_1001 @dhh I’m pretty sure if you’re running it you’ve got a little grey in your neckbeard. Age verified.

Omarchy has a neat built-in SSH tunneling port forwarder called fip. So you can start three web services on a remote box, forward those ports there, and you'll be able to access them all in the secure context of localhost. Super nice for remote dev! github.com/basecamp/omarc…

⏺ All saved. Next time you pick this up, I'll know where you left off — prod certs, prod vhost, prod WordPress install. Night. ❯ later have a good one dreaming of electric sheep ⏺ Do androids dream of electric sheep? Guess we'll find out. Night. ❯ exit

@JacobEnders @unclebobmartin Nah, you can put that toward hardware to run locally.

@unclebobmartin How much does this cost you to do? Do I need to pay claude 500 dollars a month to be a software engineer now?

With AIs “distance” is important. One AI that writes tests, and another that makes them pass, sets the two at odds with each other and prevents either from cheating. This is very much like the separation of powers in a democratic constitution. Another form of distance is semantic. I have the AI create a parser that parses gherkin into an intermediate representation file. Then I have it write a generator that reads the IR file and produces executable test code. That semantic distance interposed so many intermediate goals that the AI cannot reach through them in order to cheat. Or, to say that differently, the intermediate goals become higher priority than the overall goal of making the test pass, making reinforcing the test higher priority than cheating to get green.

@bhalligan @jack I have a hunch he's underestimating the amount of communication between agents. If I run out of context solving one problem, the context between 10,000 will be a different beast. We'll probably figure out how to do it - but today? I'm not so sure.

So @jack wants ~6,000 employees reporting directly to him in the new version of the company. Layers between CEO and any employee in the company: ~5 today → 2-3 this year → basically zero

@dhh @MichaelDell couldn't cost that much to license...

Also very impressive how quickly this came together. After @MichaelDell got the right people at Dell and Intel engaged, it was just a few weeks before we had solved everything, and could ship the final solution. Founder urgency since 1984 🤘

In celebration of Omarchy 3.5 being the first distro to ship with complete Linux compatibility for the new XPS Panther Lake laptops, @Dell made me a special unit with super + omarchy keys instead of Windows and Copilot. So damn cool!

@zemnam @NodleTheBowl I am he. but i get so many @mal's its sad.

@NodleTheBowl @mal
