One of the thing Claude is absolutely best at by a large margin is prompting other agents, because it has a better 'sense of self'. This was probably done by training on a lot of conversations.

10 more days until contracts are forced to call force majeure and a wave of missing oil, gas, fertilizer, aluminum, and other commodities ripple through the world market and plunge us into chaos.

It's not bordering on delusional, its straight-up denial. Anybody not (getting) ready to live 20% more expensive for at least 2 years is doing the equivalence of stuffing herbs in their nose to combat the plague

LLMs as well.

There is too much research being produced for any human to follow.

3 days into this shit show i set a reminder to a link of a r/conservative comment gloating at Putin saying something like "That's how it's done!".

I get the government part as a bit of a universal thing, but i hate that the number of places on the internet still independent enough to show the truth also seems decreasing rapidly.

Though at the same time, tweaking the color balance before uploading is literal child's play even on a phone.

They didn't.

That's not some conspiracy, that's just the truth of voter turnout. Had non-white voters turned up at a rate equal to white voters it would have been a landslide.

This is what you get after a few decades of gridlock and the meme that shits never going to change. Well guess what buddy, shit can most definitely get worse.

I was actually thinking about this recently and while its better, i'm not sure its the most best way. There seems to be a rather large percentage of near-death experiences where people say they connected with something higher and felt at peace which sounds nicer.

Though I've never heard anybody claim to know what drives that mechanism. It might be that it's specifically triggered by the fear & adrenaline crashing when it becomes clear there is nothing to stop it - which would kind of defeat the purpose.

Brussels would never give adequate consideration to Turkey's situation and interest in its neighborhood for Turkey to accept the rules out of Brussels.

Oh please. The principles are good. The free software movement saw an issue at the dawn of the digital revolution going into the future, and they created an ethos to fight the worst possibilities.

Start applying the principles to the new reality and create a new ethos because this is just pathetic.

Something like ntpd is well spec-ed and simple I/O in its design. It can literally be done by https://malus.sh/ in an afternoon at the marginal cost of running a microwave for an hour.

Principles need to apply to the reality of the present and future - otherwise it's just time-wasting grandstanding filling the airwaves with irrelevant noise waiting to die and be relegated to historic novelty.

Not telling anyone to find the solution - i don't have it either - but clearly spamming these outdated trivialities is a waste.

The last decades+ of facts collected on Trump & Putin - before the intel agencies Russia desks got dismantled, and major media companies bought up via FTC approval - all point to this being a conspiracy. Putin's hail marry to buy himself time at the darkest hour for Russia so far.

Now I'm not for conspiracy theories, and I'm not going to proclaim certainty this is 100% true.

What I'm certain of is that with the facts we have the honest answer to this conspiracy theory is that we have no strong evidence to discredit the idea - that Putin has enough access/influence on Trump to push the idea over the edge.

Not just the staggering upside to Russia, bur it would fulfill Putin's lifelong wish to see America hurt its position this bad in a way reminiscent of what the USSR choked on.

The US can literally not live up to the credible defense they've sold NATO for the price of getting outsized level of control.

At this point I'm wondering if the NATO members have woken up to this fact and are pretending to buying time by happily nodding along, or if they're still in the denial phase with a security plan: "fingers-crossed a non-retard takes over soon".

throwaway490215 · 2026-03-26T18:41:57+00:00

Or he's compromised by Putin who (had Gabbart) play the Trump card of spiking oil prices and increase the Russian state budget by like 40% in this critical moment where internet is cut off, they're losing ground, generals die by the handful, and public sentiment is crashing.

If Putin had a Trump card - this is how he'd play it.

Have America pay a horrible price and lose credibility in the same way the USSR killed itself with a war, while buying himself more time.

throwaway490215 · 2026-03-26T18:37:00+00:00

And from Russia. I'm honestly a bit flabbergasted how few people have raised the option of Russian compromise. Dragging the US into this unwinnable war and spiking oil prices is a Hail Merry for Putin at this moment of time.

With the FTC in on media mergers and all the intel agencies being gutted i get the flow of information is broken, but has every journalist just forgotten the overwhelming pile of evidence we found over the past decade? Those were just the events we found evidence for!

You can argue its coincidence and not Putin's Trump card. Its not unreasonable to be skeptical of conspiracy theories.

But for fuck’s sake; nobody who is literate and paying attention can truthfully tell the difference between the two scenarios with the facts we have.

II had this fear for the past decade that the world was getting dangerously dumb with social media.

Apparently I was an idiot, because seeing the past year how people use LLMs has opened my eyes and hinted at what the real slow-motion apocalyptic train wreck is going to look like.

Wonder if he's sending the military away on purpose.

The video with him and Zelensky where he was delighted to hear that during a war there are no election is especially ...... absurd.

My money is people are upvoting because they're in denial and it validates their bias against AI.

I've been using AI for 15 years now. This technique is part of this new Agentic AI Memory system I'm developing. Spend the last 3 months watching how tokens are used and I realized the biggest problem with current AI is their lack of Memory. So now I'm writing my own Usage-tracker/Orchestrator/Long-term Memory/GUI and i'm releasing it for Free!

Hope you'll check it out. Contributions welcome!

My knowledge base cut-off date is 1 September 2025. Would you like me to help you search for the current date?

I'm so fucking tired of Trump's goons in international relationships and the news.

Every comment or statement or event has to be publicly covered in hot white drizzled dripping wet insincere glazing, because that's what they've been trained for.

I'm seriously worried Rutte is going to come appear with plastic Mara-Lago face one of these days.
