@AFistfulof45s @AuronMacintyre There's a whole new class of persistent low energy ground loitering drones hitting the battlefield now. More like a mine that jumps up and fly over to you. But they can be tasked remotely and respond to i/o from remote sensors and other drones. And then there UGVs now

@AuronMacintyre Drones and planes cannot hold territory.

Machiavelli mocked this in the 1500s and has only been proven more correct with each technological wave

He snatched a British child on her way to school and orally r*ped her. Listen to her cries when the woman rescues her. THIS IS HORRIFIC.

@myscifi @flowidealism I'm interested in seeing this OS and can beta test it if you want feedback.

Something is happening in education that most people have not noticed yet, and I believe it is worth understanding, even if you never change a single thing about your child’s schooling. To understand what is happening, it helps to know what came before. In 1920, there were about 200,000 school districts in the United States. For most Americans, the one-room schoolhouse was a reality. Districts were small, local, and responsive to parents. By 1970, due to the school consolidation movement, that number had fallen to about 20,000. Today, there are public high schools with 2,000, 3,000, or even 5,000 students. They are monstrosities. New York City schools spend approximately $40,000 per pupil each year. The results are mediocre at best and catastrophic at worst. For the first time in American history, that monopoly is beginning to crack. Educational Scholarship Accounts now allow families in multiple states to use public funds for private education, tutoring, homeschool materials, and other educational services of their choice. If you had a ten-student microschool and could access that money directly, you would have $400,000 a year to educate ten students. The resources exist. They always have. They were simply locked inside a system that could not use them well. At the same time, the homeschool and microschool movement has grown tremendously. These are not isolated families doing worksheets at the kitchen table. They are organized communities of parents, often led by mothers and former teachers, who saw their children struggling and decided to build something better. Learning pods allow families to share the teaching load. I know families in which each mother watches the children one day a week, and the kids rotate among homes. Microschools bring eight to fifteen students together with a skilled guide. The models vary, but the underlying principle is the same: small groups, meaningful relationships, and genuine learning. What has not changed, and what technology cannot replace, is the human element. A child needs adults who know them, who take their thinking seriously, and who create an environment where they feel safe enough to take intellectual risks. A child needs peers who share their curiosity and hold them to a higher standard. A child needs to feel that what they are doing matters, that their education is not merely preparation for some future life, but a meaningful part of their life right now. This is where I have spent thirty-five years: building environments in which the human element is the foundation and everything else serves it. Small seminars where every student speaks every day. Mentorship relationships develop over the years. A culture built around genuine intellectual engagement rather than compliance or credentialing. I am sharing this because I believe we are at an inflection point. The families who understand what is happening and act on it in the next few years will give their children an extraordinary advantage. Not an advantage measured merely in test scores or college acceptance letters, though those often follow, but one measured in how their children think, how they relate to others, and how they approach the world. Putting more money into the system will not change it, because the problem is structural, not financial. Every meaningful change in education has come from families and educators who chose to build something new outside the existing structure. That movement is now larger and better funded than it has ever been. If you are curious about what this looks like in practice, or if you simply want to talk about your child’s situation, reply to this email. I have been at this for thirty-five years, and I still find every family’s story worth hearing.

@jamonholmgren @tannerlinsley Yeah, I hate to pile on, but I would very much appreciate that info as well. Ive been beating my head against a wall and am new to this. I appreciate your insights and knowledge.

@tannerlinsley Sorry, just saw this. You just need a markdown file. I’ll send you mine.

Looking for the most reliable way to run agents in some kind of continuous/ralph loop mode, preferably overnight (@jamonholmgren). I'm use both Codex and Claude and am a sucker for OpenCode. What do I use?

@JB_Cartier @johann_sath I too am wondering this. I think people are just lying? I dont understand why I see this sentiment so much but then when I look into it it seems to not be the case

@johann_sath How do you get your claude max to work with your agents? I've read everywhere that anthropic doesn't allow it anymore and you risk getting banned. What am I not getting here?

if you want to use openclaw without burning money avoid these mistakes: 1. don't pay per use on the anthropic console. get claude max ($100/month). flat rate. 2. don't run 8 agents. one agent with proper skills beats a squad of confused ones every time. 3. don't leave SOUL.md and USER.md empty. your agent sounds like a call centre without them. fill them out day 4. install QMD before you start chatting. if you add it halfway through, your agent resets and loses chat logs. 5. set up groq on day 1 (free). talking to your agent with voice notes while you're on the move changes everything.

@thsottiaux Co-work, ive been learning claude code with training wheels via co-work. It'd be nice to have a similar setup in Codex. I know its pie in the sky but ive been trying to make my own codex cowork as a project. Not going well so far but I will not stop

Speed and front-end capabilities: we heard that loudly, and things are improving quickly, to the point where I think we are now highly competitive on speed, if not best-in-class. What else should we improve for Codex?

@reescalder @the_smart_ape I have two each of two types, and a third type for personal use Two ai enablement engagements for businesses i do that for, two content pipelines, and one homeschooling setup i use Im from 0-1, now 1-5, I think I can go.from 5-5000 now but I dont have real clients for them yet

@the_smart_ape genuine question: has anyone actually shipped parallel agents to production or are we all just showing demos to each other in Discord channels

if you're not using your OpenClaw agent on Discord yet, do it now. i was running everything through TG. it works, but when you send a task you have to wait for the agent to finish, then send the next one. everything is sequential. one task at a time. Discord has channels. each channel can become an independent agent session. same agent, same workspace, same files, but separate conversations running in parallel. the productivity difference is big. i went from working on one thing at a time to 5-6 projects in parallel. here's how to set it up (takes 10 minutes): 1. go to Discord dev application → New Application → give it a name 2. go to Bot tab → enable Message Content Intent and Server Members Intent under Privileged Gateway Intents → save 3. go to OAuth2 → URL Generator → check "bot" in scopes → in Bot Permissions check: View Channels, Send Messages, Read Message History, Embed Links, Attach Files, Add Reactions → copy the generated URL 4. open that URL in your browser → pick your server → authorize 5. in your OpenClaw config, add Discord: 6. restart gateway. bot goes online. done. I recommend to add a system prompt per channel so the agent automatically knows what project it's working on. no need to re-explain context every time. each channel becomes a specialized agent that remembers everything you discussed in that channel. it reads the same workspace files, has the same tools, same SSH access, but stays focused on its topic. Telegram for quick back-and-forth with your agent. Discord for parallel workflows. use both.

@breakingbaht @gorilla_rape Wait till you notice where all the Canadians are...

Life as a european white essentially comes down to every screaming how much they hate you while they weirdly stack all their stuff right next to you. And then follow you to work. And then follow you on vacation. And then pack up and move when you do before slurring at you to ask where "we" are headed.

@jessegenet @openclaw This is so much more advanced than what I've got going on right now. And such a different angle I still have like 6 months before we start homeschooling (we're already paid up for a private school) so I hope ive got time to catch up with the concept Seriously impressive work

More @openclaw meets homeschool. This time… how to actually USE all of the educational crap you bought 🤪

What good is X as the reflection of people opinions if only the first takes on news gets views and hardly anyone else? The public forum means takes get posted over time as news spreads. The algo suppresses this now. The only voices that matter are the ones that post first. You know what accounts post the fastest? Bots.

@elonmusk honest question, why does Grok cite wikipedia still? I have to actively ask it not to

The superior product will win in the end

@TheQuartering @MelonieMac @Lukewearechange Good job man!

(Warning: long rant) My liberal friends are completely oblivious about how radicalizing the last week has been for tens of millions of normal Americans. Zero clue. I’m not talking about people who are “online”; I mean regular, everyday Americans. “Normies.” People who scroll through Facebook posts and Instagram reels from the Dutch Bros drive thru line. Political moderates who have water cooler chats about Mahomes touchdowns and Bon Jovi concerts, not Twitter threads or Rachel Maddow monologues. Millions of them. Tens of millions. They’re logging on, they’re engaging, and they’re furious. And I’ll be candid: They blame you guys. They blame the left. Regardless of whether you believe it to be justified, they think you’re the bad guys here. And they are reacting accordingly. I can already hear some of you racing toward the comments to start screeching in moral indignation, so I’m going to be blunt: Shut up and listen to what I’m telling you. Your movement will lose any semblance of relevance if you don’t develop some small measure of self-awareness, and—absent someone force-feeding you bitter medicine—you guys collectively lack the humility to do this on your own. Here are the facts: Fact 1. Tens of millions of Americans started the week seeing a 23-year-old blonde woman—a young woman in whom virtually every parent watching pictured their own daughter—stabbed in the neck by a career criminal. These people then found out the murderer had been released from jail 14 times over. Fact 2. Two days later, tens of millions of Americans watched a video of Charlie Kirk get murdered speaking to college students. Millions of these people knew who Charlie was; millions of them didn’t. Upon seeing the video, however, these normal Americans from across the land and across the political spectrum agreed that he was the victim of a terrible, fundamentally unjustifiable crime, and their hearts broke in sympathy for his family. Good people who had never even heard the name Charlie Kirk before wept. Fact 3. Immediately after seeing the footage of a peaceful young man get shot in the neck, these same people logged onto Facebook and Instagram (remember, we are talking about regular Americans, not perpetually online Twitter or Bluesky users) and saw some of their local nurses, school teachers, college administrators, and retail workers celebrating this horrific crime. Not just defending it, but cheering it. These are all facts. You may not like the implications of these facts, and we can certainly debate the underlying causes thereof, but, indisputably, they are nevertheless factual statements. Here’s what it means for you, the Democrats reading this: These normal, middle-of-the-road, non-political citizens just become politically active. They realized that politics cares about them, even if they don’t particularly care about politics. After watching Iryna Zarutska and Charlie Kirk both bleed out from the neck, they think their lives and the physical safety of their families—the bedrock of human society, the foundation of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs—depend on political activation, whether they desire it or not. These people are now sprinting—not jogging, not walking, but racing—to the right. Because they blame you guys for everything that just happened. When they see footage of Decarlos Brown stabbing a Ukrainian refugee to death, they don’t see just one demon-possessed man. They picture every university administrator, HR bureaucrat, and DEI apparatchik that ever lectured them about systemic racism, the “carceral state,” or the need to release violent crime suspects without bail in the name of social justice. They then think back to conversations they’ve had with their cop friends—their buddy from high school who quit the force after getting tired of being called a racist, their friend at the local YMCA who vents about having to release career criminals because Soros-funded prosecutors aren’t willing to file charges—and they realize everything the left has told them over the last five years has been utter bullshit. And they blame you. Because, even if you count yourself as a moderate Democrat, your party supported the district attorneys, city council members, and mayors that let fictitious concerns about mental health and racial justice supersede very real concerns for their family’s safety. When these Americans see blood erupt from the side of Charlie Kirk’s neck, they don’t see just a martyred political activist. They think of every extreme leftist they’ve ever met who (1) calls anyone to the right of Hillary Clinton a fascist and (2) constantly jokes—“jokes”—about punching Nazis and “bashing the fash.” They realize that there really do exist people who wish to see them dead for their moderately conservative political beliefs, their Christian faith, and even the color of their skin. They ask themselves if the violence visited upon Charlie might one day show up on their own doorstep. And they blame you. Because, even if you’re just a center-of-the-road liberal, you lacked the courage to police your own ranks. You let modern-day Maoist red guards run loose across every facet of society, and what started with social-media struggle sessions has now turned to 30-06 bullet holes. When these Americans log onto social media and see their neighbors justifying, celebrating, glorifying murder, they realize that some who walk among them are soulless ghouls at best, literally demon-possessed at worst. These people—whether they faithfully attend church every Sunday or only attend with relatives once a year, on Christmas Eve—start talking about things like spiritual warfare. They implicitly understand that no normal human casually celebrates the mortal demise of a peaceful person. And they blame you. Because, even if you condemned Charlie Kirk’s murder, they probably haven’t seen you condemn those in your own movement who cheered it on. They view you as complicit in allowing heartless fellow travelers to celebrate death, and it repulses them. For all of these situations, what has your response been? Nothing but bullshit. In response to Iryna Zarutska bleeding out on the floor of a train, you post bullshit statistics about reductions in reported crime, when everyone who’s ever been to a major urban center in the last decade knows that actual crime has skyrocketed, only for victims not to waste their time reporting it to cops that don’t have the manpower to respond and prosecutors that seek to downgrade as many felonies as possible to misdemeanor citations. In response to a 31-year-old man taking a bullet to the neck in front of his family, you post nothing but bullshit whataboutism. > “What about January 6th?” (Honest answer: After you let Liz Cheney spend two years operating a star chamber in the House, combined with countless other failed attempts at “lawfare” against Trump, no one cares anymore.) > “What about Mike Lee making a dumb joke on Twitter about some guy in a mask in Minnesota?” (No one outside of Utah, DC, or Twitter knows who Mike Lee even is.) > “What about Paul Pelosi?” (That’s not comparable to Charlie Kirk getting shot, and we all know it. And, again, Paul who?) > “What about regulations on assault rifles?” (That’s not going to get you very far when one of these killers used a knife and the other one used a common hunting rifle.) In response to teachers, healthcare workers, and thousands of other liberals cheering on Charlie’s murder, it’s nothing but more bullshit and misdirection. > “It’s not THAT many people celebrating!” (Yes, it is. Everyone has seen it on their Facebook and Instagram feeds.) > “I thought you guys didn’t support cancel culture.” (We don’t cancel people over their opinions; we’re more than happy to see people lose their jobs—especially their taxpayer-funded jobs—for actively cheering on murder, though. If you can’t see the difference, that’s your own shortcoming.) All bullshit. Not even smart bullshit, but stale, mid-grade, low-IQ bullshit. Ordinary Americans see right through it, and they don’t like how it smells. You probably don’t like hearing this. But you need to hear it. Because I’m right, and, as you reflect on this, you know I’m right. The ranks of my political movement gained millions of righteously angry new members this week. We have a mandate to ensure these crimes never happen again, and that’s exactly what we are now going to do. If you want to keep a seat at the table as we do so, you’d better clean house and start policing your own.

This is eerie Charlie Kirk foreshadowing
