Honest question: Do we understand where the money actually goes? "Trump Admin" is kind of vague as a destination for the money. Treasury? Slush fund? Personal bank account?
I had assumed the headline was a joke. But no.

AI may replace me, but before it does I'm going to get a good six months where I don't have to do any of the shit work that I hate doing and it's going to be glorious.

It went off, found the commands that produced the plots, found the hyperparameter files that those commands used, diffed the hyperparameter files to see what was different, and summarized it all.
I HATE HATE HATE that kind of task and now I will literally never have to do it again!
"I've got these visualizations, find the hyperparameters that go with them and summarize them in a file".
Boom. A little tsv summarizing what's different between plots.
No tedious spelunking around in the file system looking for these scattered files. It finds them, it summarizes them. π
On our end. I had maybe 5% on Putin nuking Kiev early on when things really turned south for him. That's the most worried about nukes I've been since I was a child. But after about six months it became clear that, for whatever reason, that's not in the cards.
1%
Looks small, but 1% is a terrifying and insane number. That's two orders of magnitude higher than I would put on anything since the cold war ended.
If he did use nukes I do not think morality or law should protect him and everyone involved from the fates.
Maybe their dispute with DoW (sic, DoD) has gone kinetic?

I see things like this too often from Claude. Answer quality is very similar, maybe a little better with Claude on average, but OpenAI is more reliable ATM.
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
Honest question: What does the phrase "Trump Administration receives" mean here? Who does the check actually get written to? What bank account?
Normally payments to the government would go to the treasury. This doesn't sound like that but I'd like to know what it is exactly.
As a Californian I reject this message.
The message should be:
* We should all pay our fair share of taxes.
* In return, I promise that government will deliver for you on healthcare, housing, and preparing for the future.
And then you should make it easier to build things so you can deliver.
This sort of task requires the exact kind of attention that I don't have. The exact kind of ability to notice that one file has date 20260304 and the other has date 20260204 that I totally lack. And now, in one fell swoop, I don't have to do it. Maybe not ever again if I don't want to.
There are three kinds of output files in location A, and reference files in B and C, unless they are in D and E. And I want to try all three outputs with three different step #2, so I've got 9 commands to craft and 9 outputs that all have to go somewhere. Did I mention ST-32456-0081 makes me blind?
Cliche, but I think it's an ADHD thing. Writing code for me is zen. Running code for me is harrowing. I just can't remember where I put things, ST-32456-0081 looks too much like ST-32457-0021, I can't remember the arguments for commands, I make typos when trying to edit a command from history.
But today I just said, "Look in this directory, you can see that I did this experiment. Figure out where the output went and what it takes to run this other command on it and run it. Organize the results in some sensible way." And then I got a coffee. And it did it.
patching it it together into a series of commands to do a little manual analysis and then deciding where *those* files should go so on. I go blind trying to cut and paste paths or trying to edit command line arguments. I make lots of mistakes. I hate hate hate it.
The very first thing I had it do was like lifting a huge burden. I had run several experiments a week ago, it produced some files, I forget where, and I have a program to crunch on these files but it also needs some other inputs, those are somewhere else. I HATE finding all that stuff and
I bit a pretty big agent bullet today.
I spent all day setting up a sandbox EC2 instance and hardening it against a possible agent gone haywire. It can only access a limited file system, has limited permissions, etc.
But it is on the server side now, with real data, running actual code...

Does he always sound like that? Because he comes across as nervous as Hell when he got back.
WTF? He seems nervous as hell when he got back. Or does he always sound like heβs about to shit his pants when he talks?
If I were Hegseth, I'd close every war college before they had time to add him to the curriculum.
Hegseth will make major contributions to military education Iβm sure, as a collection of negative case studies.
Stephen Miller complaining about the UK finally eliminating heredity nobility from their legislature is a perfect encapsulation of how perverse it is to have these people in charge during the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
Imagine working for that guy.
Imagine being a woman working for that guy.
there is something pretty funny about the Republican caucus spending every single drop of legislative juice they had killing an existing law that would help reduce consumer dependence on oil, only for the Republican president to start blowing up the sea lane the oil comes from
Seeing that photo of him... must have been a long time ago because he looks like a normal human in that photo. He looks like shit now.
