its cool how we’ve spent decades anticipating this exact scenario where a cornered iran would mine or otherwise deny access to the strait and the US gov is just like “woah, no idea they’d play this card in response to [operation: no iranian government official left alive]”

i think wider ai discourse would be wildly different if everyone actually understood that Claude and ChatGPT are “eldritch creations via petajoules of stochastic optimizations” rather than “chat bot programmed by a san francisco tech company’s engineers”

is the verb for “deploying mines” “mining”? they’re mining the Hormuz?

just finished reading @brianbeutler.bsky.social’s post today and while Trump’s invincibility was a *common* belief in 2025, it does not describe reality (and i’d put money on that!). he’s at -20 approval!

there it is

@roryjohnston.bsky.social on Odd Lots walking through the practical, material effects of even a mildly extended stoppage of traffic through Hormuz

meta’s strategy of investing in a domain name + database over dev tools is bizarre. almost none of those bots are running Meta AI, what does this accomplish?

What do you want to bet this little tantrum on the WaPo's opinion page is because someone ahead of Professor Jakub Grygiel in the queue at some coffee shop had an elaborate coffee order and he hasn't been able to let it go ever since
