@MsMelChen Oh you just need an ANOM phone.

I would kill for a BlackBerry right now Secure. No distractions. Encrypted. Not made in China.

Quinn's shattered inside her fingertip and she lost the sensation. Then the the fragments slowly migrated back together into a clump and she eventually regained a bit of the feeling.

One time 3ric and I got gel nails and had magnets embedded in them. It gives you a kind of sixth sense where you can feel what things are made of, feel if electricity is coursing through a cord, and of course find studs – if you are into that sort of thing.

@MsMelChen Cuz of the lisp?

The Thucydides Trap is FAKE and GAY

Claude Code is Farmville for 40 year old former software engineers

People who get what they need thrive. People who get what they want deteriorate. The same is true for societies.

Okay folks, this qualifies as BREAKING NEWS! Harold “Sonny” White, the warp drive pioneer behind NASA’s EagleWorks Lab, just stepped out of stealth with Casimir Inc. to unveil MicroSPARC: the first battery free chip to harvest continuous electrical power straight from the quantum vacuum via the Casimir force. The 5 mm × 5 mm device uses millions of custom microscale Casimir cavities fabricated on a substrate. Inside each cavity, two fixed conductive walls create a region of negative vacuum pressure (the well known Casimir effect). Stationary micropillars anchored in the middle act as antennas. Electrons from the cavity walls then quantum tunnel to the pillars because the interior is a lower energy “quieter” zone — and the probability of tunneling back is orders of magnitude lower. This one way “quantum ratchet” flow generates a measurable DC current with no external power source or moving parts. Prototypes already fabricated at university nanofab facilities (Texas A&M AggieFab, MIT.nano) have been tested in RF-shielded, low noise chambers for weeks. The team reports outputs ranging from millivolts to volts at picoamp to microamp levels using precision electrometers and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy. Target performance for the first commercial chip: ~1.5 V at 25 µA (≈40 µW continuous). Stacking and scaling could reach milliwatts or even watts per device. Initial applications are ultra low power: always on IoT sensors, wearables, and medical implants. Longer term roadmap includes trickle charging phones, powering small electronics, and eventually grid independent homes or EVs. Commercialization is targeted for 2028, starting at ~$100/W before dropping toward $10/W. White ties the work directly to his earlier theoretical paper on emergent quantization from a dynamic vacuum and sees it as a practical power source for the deep-space missions he’s long championed. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and independent scientists have so far declined public comment. But if the engineering scales as hoped, MicroSPARC would represent a genuine paradigm shift: continuous, maintenance free power drawn from the fabric of spacetime itself. A bold leap from warp-drive theory into real hardware. Progress (and vacuum-powered chips) marches on. Photo: MicroSPARC | Casimir Inc. Source: thedebrief.org/free-energy-fr…

Founders are all using slop spam, trying to butter me up with glowing accolades about my illustrious career, mined from Common Corpus. Praising for things I had nothing to do with make an exceptionally bad first impression. Better to skip the faux flattery and get to the point.

The vibe coding singularity is when someone makes a plug-in for Obsidian to make it present databases like Notion.

@pretendsmarts @humanoidsdaily This is a pet for humanoids.

@humanoidsdaily Sir, is this Humanoids daily, or Quadrupeds daily?

The man who put 50 million Roombas in our homes is back with a new vision for "Artificial Life". iRobot co-founder Colin Angle’s new startup, Familiar Machines & Magic, just unveiled "Familiars"—expressive, soft-coated quadrupeds designed for human connection rather than factory labor. With 23 degrees of freedom and strictly on-device AI, these robots aim to conquer the $2.5 trillion "emotional work" frontier without the privacy risks of the cloud.

Claude is refusing to install an obliterated Qwen model that I asked it to download. Another walled garden of corporate censorship, like Instagram not letting you post hyperlinks.

@lucaronin @evielync I respect the ambition, but I can't see why you don't just build all this as Obsidian plugins.

@evielync awesome! let me know your thoughts

Introducing Tolaria! 💧 Today I am releasing a macOS desktop app for managing markdown knowledge bases, and helping both AI and humans operate them. It’s free and open source, and always will be. I have been working on it for three months, and I now use it to run my life and work. I personally have a massive workspace of 10,000 notes — the result of 6 years of Refactoring — which I now operate on Tolaria. Tolaria is the main collaboration surface with my AI agents: they create new notes there, connect them to what exists, and edit existing ones. Everything is easy to understand for them, because it’s just markdown files. In a way, it’s my implementation of @karpathy's LLM wiki. Tolaria is also the biggest experiment I have ever run about writing software with AI: • 2000 commits • 100K+ lines of code • 3000+ tests / 85% coverage • 9.9/10 code health • 70+ architecture decision records I am releasing it open source also to use it as a living artifact of how I do AI coding, so you can inspect at any time things like how I write docs, what's in my AGENTS file, what hooks do I run, and so on. You can find it below: • Newsletter announcement: refactoring.fm/p/introducing-… • Website: tolaria.md • Github repo: github.com/refactoringhq/… Let me know your thoughts!

@mgrunwald_ I'm completely baffled. Is there a command key or something bound to it to get this window to pop up?

Ghostmoon.app [pre-release] The Swiss Army Knife for your macOS menu bar. More than 30 features normally found in multiple separate apps. High efficiency, small app package, low resource usage. Free to use. Apple Silicon & Intel. macOS 13 or newer. #macOS #IndieDev

@DODOREACH @Teknium @NousResearch Rad, but Hermes Desktop seems stuck in read only mode. I can't interact with any sessions or create new ones. What am I doing wrong?

Hermes Desktop v0.5.0 – native Mac app for Hermes Agent. SSH only. multi-profile + full cron manager, now live ✅ NO gateway, NO daemon, remote is source of truth. The official dashboard just shipped too – great for browser admin! @Teknium @NousResearch

youtu.be/mZCoxUaZJ0Y?si… The only talk about cement that you didn’t know you needed to watch today. My buddy Admir Masic solved the biggest mystery in the biggest construction material of all time.

@andrewfarah Any way to get the UI to run in English instead of Chinese?

sharing my first open source project a CLI for downloading and syncing your X bookmarks locally so your agent can access them. it's free › npm install -g fieldtheory › login to your X account in a chrome tab › ft sync (done!) bonus: › ft viz › ft classify

@NChoudhary @scmallaby The Power Law is excellent. I am trying to listen to the audiobook about Demis but the sycophancy is as bad as if Kanye wrote an autobiography.

I am looking forward to this book, @scmallaby. All three books I have read—The Power Law, More Money Than God, and The Man Who Knew—were outstanding. Each is an epic 101 course on the inner workings of the industry it represents.

@andrewchen Subvocal input FTW!

learning from openclaw: 95%+ of agentic coding will be done via voice, from our phones in the future 😂

@hunkybill @AnthropicAI Let’s take this to Polymarket. What’s a good way to quantify the relative success of attackers and defenders going forward?

@hunkybill @AnthropicAI I don’t have any authority. You can all do your own reasoning. This is mine. So far.

#Mythos is scaring the shit out of @AnthropicAI because it creates "unprecedented cybersecurity risks." Bullshit. The actual precedent is imaginary problems and no equivalent imagination for the solutions. For the entire history of #cybersecurity, the attackers had the advantage. They had unlimited time to find every bug, every exploit, every way to break your shit. Defenders? They're busy building products, shipping features, fixing the bugs customers actually complain about. They don't have time to think of all the deranged shit hackers are going to do to their code. Now everybody is losing their minds over AI-powered attacks. What they're missing is that defenders have the same AIs. Often better ones and way more compute. Even better, defenders have something attackers never will: they're on the inside. They have their source code. They have the byte code the machine is running. They have a God's eye view of every single bit. They can aim the same models — with more resources — at defense. This is still a war of escalation, but now the defender has the advantage. Security is about to get better. Not worse.

@ivysage_ @AnthropicAI Same logic that stalled OpenAI from releasing GP2 in 2019; Google from releasing LaMDA in 2021; Anthropic holding back Claude in 2022. We've blown way past all these things and the sky still ain't on the tarmac.

@pablos @AnthropicAI Anthropic saying their own model is dangerous is the most credible cybersecurity warning you can get. they built it. they're not guessing.
