The Syncopated Sherriff

@HSzandel21353 It’s the carpenters

can't believe ye actually cleared the stevie wonder sample. (song: white lines by Ye off of Bully)

@naval Nobody wants this

AI coding agents can now deliver one-shot custom apps straight to your phone. It’s the beginning of the end for the iPhone’s dominance.

@rifflexielian Star Wars. Mix of both and has holocrons

If people are fighting for an orb you are reading fantasy. If people are fighting for a cube you are reading sci-fi. If it has more sides than that. I dont know. I dont know man.

@paulg No, it’s because people don’t trust AIs enough to commit to the time it takes to read through their answers because it could be bullshit.

The fact that AIs tend to answer you in bulleted lists tells us something important, though somewhat depressing: people can't read. They don't do this by accident. What you're seeing is an implicit portrait of the median user.

@pmarca Introspection without a reliable moral framework will do this. Most of the west is now anchorless morally, so yes, emotional disorders will be the norm. The alternative is becoming such that the lines are blurred between what is man and what is machine.

My big conclusion from this week: Introspection causes emotional disorders.

@esaagar We night owls do exist, and we are productive. Please don’t do this to us

Yes I got to see the sun rise once in Arizona at 445am. It was awesome

@Austen Can AI teach kids to be human in the age of AI?

Bad news for the “these AI apps will never be able to teach kids as well as a teacher” folks. Phenomenal news for everybody else.

@One_Way_Home Go have some kids. Dogs are dogs man. Love them but you can’t ascribe human-level consciousness to them.

Just remember, their entire life is time with us.

@InvestUpX_Trade @TheFieldOf68 Ai much bro?

@TheFieldOf68 Coach is 100% right. Court storming went from a 'celebration' to a 'security hazard' way too fast. When staff members are literally getting punched, it’s no longer about the fans—it's about a lack of control.

Jon Scheyer was heated postgame: "It's hard to talk about the game when I was most concerned for the safety of our players. I don't wanna make it about that, but... I got staff members that got punched in the face... That's not what this game is about. That was a scary ending."

@ThePrimeagen Did they determine if it will be live action or animation? I didn’t see that in the announcement

Book 6 storm light just got delayed

@ThePrimeagen Wait til you get to Book 4, The Shadow Rising. Blows book 1 away in its evolution of the characters, expansion of the world, and delivering on setup from books 1-3

i am convinced that Eye of the World, WoT is the best fantasy book ever written

@JoshuaBarzon I’m sure my bad decisions had nothing to do with it at all

I needed this today. Maybe you do too.

Hey @PublicStorage I’ll have my stuff out before you get another penny from me. No humans on site. No warning, you just wouldn’t let me OUT of the exit gate at 9:30pm. Today I get these notices. Upselling to 24/7 access when the product is being able to get out of your facility?

@DICKS commercial just now: “Every holiday begins with Dick’s” can’t be an accident

@DentesLeo Try having kids

10 years ago I made the decision to never correct anyone who’s wrong unless I’m paid to do that. Never been happier.

Why the hell are Boog Sciambi and Doug Glanville calling the Dodgers/Reds instead of the Cubs/Padres?

@hubermanlab Everywhere I turn lately there seems to be messaging about how important it is to control and be intentional with one’s attention.

The big one for me was realizing that humans and the human brain are amazing, but very prone to having our thinking controlled by where we place our attention and the inputs we get there. A recent guest on the podcast (not out yet) basically explained thinking as a progressive layering of different sensory modalities on a seed event. Once you realize that your thinking is more under your control than you thought and that you have to be careful to not let those cascades take you down unhealthy and unproductive paths, all the business of discipline and careful contemplation becomes much easier. If this seems vague, I should probably just do a podcast about it but there’s real science to back it up. I wish it for everybody because it gives you a real sense of internal calm. You can really start to formulate your thoughts and actions in the best possible way. Life gets so much easier.

Thanks for the birthday wishes! I feel better at 50 than at 21 & I felt great then. I’m not special. Every 24hrs strive for: solid sleep, am sunlight, exercise, (mostly) clean eating, great people, hard work & prayer. I don’t claim wisdom but I put a few recent lessons below.

@nbaischeeks @ItIsHoeMath We can change that, I fight my kids on it all the time. I’d argue it’s easier to change than alcoholism

@premanently @ItIsHoeMath its dead buddy people would rather text the person next to them than talk

A lot of hot takes on this goin' around. The biggest reason this is happening is that Gen Z doesn't socialize. When I started drinking, I was sneaking around with my friends and buying malt liquor illegally at a bodega that didn't card, and then hanging out in backyards with "cool parents" with friends of friends and girls from 3 towns over. Gen Z is not sneaking around anywhere. They're inside on the phone trying to talk to everyone else who's inside on the phone. Society's dead.

There should be a career ladder between the helpdesk and dev ops. Seems like a difference of scale and technological sophistication but mostly similar in that they center around configuration and monitoring.
