The sky is not falling; high-quality platforms (Prolific, Verasight, CR Connect) have low rates of apparent bots. osf.io/preprints/ps... But also not zero; vigilance is very much needed!

At the moment it looks like the Greens will hold on to the prime minister office in Baden WΓΌrttemberg. But, once again, what a disaster for the SPD

He seems like the only international leader with the guts to stand up for the right positions. And he is widely successful (so is Spain πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Έ). Maybe some of the other left-party/liberal leaders should follow his example instead constantly bowing to the right & Trump

Post and Courier wins President's Cup for Excellence, 91 awards from SC Press Association The Post and Courier wins 91 awards from S.C. Press Association, including Journalist of the Year, Judson Chapman Award and President's Cup for Excellence.

Hot damn! We won an award.

Bartelme and Smith, along with John Dell’Osso from the Platform to Protect Whistleblowers in Africa, won the A-Mark Prize for Investigative Journalism for β€œPower and Polo.”

Maybe it should be made clear in the headline, that yes, they did in fact start war...

This is definitely well planned and thoroughly thought through, probably by Grok

Building πŸ‘ more πŸ‘ housing πŸ‘ reduces πŸ‘ housing πŸ‘ prices πŸ‘

Even when the new housing is more expensive, it lowers the cost of the pre-existing housing, as richer people move out of older housing into the new ones.

FWIW: Claude Code's sandbox doesn't cover its built-in file tools. It only restricts Bash commands.

Read, Write, Grep, and others bypass the sandbox entirely, gated only by permission prompts. In dangerously-skip-permissions mode, those prompts go away too

The Constitution says "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law." Presidents who violate the Constitution should be impeached and removed from office.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

Intrinsically, I think

a) thinking up good questions and
b) executing on them with good approaches is HARD.

I have not seen evidence that LLMs do this without prompting and guidance from a human agent.

But I have friends who disagree!

The only comment I have on the Rubio speech is that I don’t want to spend too much time on the Rubio speech.
Nothing is changing with regards to US policy. We don’t need to do a line-by-line analysis.

Can you explain what you mean by smart use of agents? Or point me to something to read?
