- An catalogue of the Epstein files called Hierarchy of Pæds
- Ridiculous analogy for OpenClaw. Completely mischaracterises its abilities. Sure, your new PA *starts off* drunk, but also has hallucinogens on a drip. And as onboarding, you have it write your passwords on a whiteboard in a shared office. Then send it to the key cutters with your keys. In your car.
- Nora…
- The British press is so obsessed with that word that they’ll misquote someone in order to misuse it. She said predators. Plural. The predators’ ball. These were people who were actively abusing children.
- exactly. this is not difficult. as.ft.com/r/58ed1b23-d...

- “In a long-planned vote, Norway’s parliament voted overwhelmingly in favour of maintaining the country’s monarchy [today]” CNN seem to have some thoughts about that. This article is a complete muddle, but it is a lot…

- I just gave a talk titled 70 years of AI (it’s the anniversary of the Dartmouth Workshop) and wrote an essay distinguishing the 1980s approach to creating Expert Systems from genAI — and suggesting that the last 30 years of work in machine translation was the more apt foreshadowing.
- Would it be overkill to set up a video wall in the bedroom to watch them?

- Wow, no record or recollection seems very like Andrew Windsor’s deceitful denials “Allegations which I believe to be false that he made financial payments to me 20 years ago, and of which I have no record or recollection, need investigating by me.”
- If I were Google and a judge allowed a case alleging that when my devices had false positives on trigger words, in response I’d sent soldiers to stab users’ babies in the face, I’d propose settling for 68mUSD without admitting guilt. I’d have to. Otherwise my shareholders would sue me for a lot more

- Correct
- So, let's get this straight. Christopher "Moot" Poole created 4chan as a gathering place for hentai and CSAM enthusiasts, started /pol/ the day he met with Jeffrey Epstein, then /pol/ memed Trump to the presidency and birthed Qanon, a conspiracy theory in which Trump is a good person who hates CSAM.
- When Americans are incredulous that people in the Nordics leave their babies outside, this is why. A kid making a 3-block trip on his scooter is stopped by a stranger in a car and reported to the authorities. Get a grip!
- "This blows — we're killing so many Koreans" is how you say business is good in the electric fan industry and you're credulous of urban myths.
- "a friend dragged me over to look at what he called 'the skipping video' [...] I mean how impressive can a video which features people either successfully or unsuccessfully jumping over a moving rope actually b...oh my LORD have you SEEN THE SKIPPING VIDEO? YOU'VE GOT TO SEE THE SKIPPING VIDEO!"
- This petition is important. I self-quote here to at least give my written overview of the diagram.
- I'm really sorry to repost something that doesn't have ALT text, but the diagram that Carole posted is a dense network of connections Palantir has within UK government services. The second picture is a screenshot of the petition, whose link I'll post in my self-reply.
