LLM agents are making me dumb.

Between the two types of comedy - (i) simply sharing memes or movie dialogues in person, and (ii) playfully teasing each other, the latter requires wit, while the former is just an overdose of copy-pasted Instagram reels.

TRUMP: "We have an interesting deal with Japan, that we have to protect them, but they don't have to protect us.... who makes these deals?" The United States! After we literally wrote in a pacifist clause into the Japanese Constitution and neutered their military! x.com/KareemRifai/...

Why don't they build a pedestrian bridge on Hudson b/w Jersey City and Manhattan?

Anyone who works at Atlassian? Looking for a referral for my partner.

@anthropic.com can you please add a functionality that generates new prompt for a new chat? That would help when chat gets longer and you start imposing restrictions/limitations. Thanks! Awesome product!

Stablecoins will lead the way for the most efficient overseas payment systems. We just need regulations to filter legal/illegal. And for that, we should be bottom up instead of piggybacking some uninformed right wingers.

Nope, it will remain off for me.

I just subscribed to WIRED. I hope you do too. Its just $6 for the first year. My bet is that their renewal price will be lowered from $30 to something like $10 with enough subscriptions.

Bluesky needs to be more than just politics. Saw someone post this on Theeads and I’m afraid they’re true. Any starter packs for other stuff, like, tech, photography, wildlife?

CNN's Jim Acosta signing off: "I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too." I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too. Pass it on.

I said the same thing last week but I hoped it was just because I was more out of loop with Big Law but this ales me very afraid that I was properly reading the vibe. Marc Elias would know. Lawyers are losing what spine they had, for money. It’s very bad.

The US is heading into the dark times.

Raegan was so stupid; Pakistan has nuclear arms because of him, and the Afghanistan mess is his blame.

They will go after Wikipedia. They will go after libraries. They will go after school boards and public extracurricular activities that are anything but sports. They will go after archives. Because knowledge, education, culture, and progressives are all the enemy. Thinking is the enemy.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat. I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

Not many understand the importance of sovereignty and now allow foreign army bases, which India has. x.com/MyLordBebo/s... Link's text: Russia rejects Germany and Japan as permanent UN security council members because they’re US puppets. #globalpolitics #india #germany #us #ukpolitics

I want to understand whether contract enforcement for private corps AND judiciary keeping the government accountable in the UK is better than that in the US. Where do I begin reading about this, and what do you think? #ukpolitics

Bluesky now has 27 million users. That's the population of Australia. Welcome to Australia.

We learned during the twitter takeover that he isn’t.

My mom is suffering terribly with Lou Gehrig's disease and I need as much support as possible to get her through this brutal stage in her formally wonderful life as a great mother and artist. Please think about making the end of her life a bit easier and make a donation. Click: gofund.me/8587b7b6

Barca thrashing Real Madrid. Loving every second of it. #viscaelbarca #forcabarca

Just for folks who don’t know, Steve Bannon has, for years, been enthusiastically insisting that everyone read a book that says that Indian immigrants are animals that eat literal human shit, so they need to be rounded up in cages. Lest you think he’s somehow not racist. He just hates Musk also.

The NYC Subway is our Pyramids. A great civilizational achievement.

“We’re going to be the social network that lets you - encourages you - to say slurs”

Biden issues sweeping deportation protections before trump takes office. Good job Sir!
