Michael Jackson was loved by the people. The world adored him.
A man who is genuinely admired and inspires millions is seen as a threat to those who want to rule the world with fear.
If you have a badge and a gun - but are not loved - you are very fearful of those who are loved.
Hope and inspiration is the antithesis to fear.
Love is the antithesis to fear.
In an attempt to dampen his power and stop the people from loving him, they accused him of sexual crimes and slandered his name all over the television and media.
Do you understand?
i have been spending a lot of time this past month out of town & in the hospital with my dad & family. he has narrowly avoided an additional amputation for now (yay), but soon he will be needing to go to either a nursing home ($8-10k/month) or an assisted living facility ($4k/month) for a few months where he can receive the care he needs. my family cant afford it. his insurance doesnt cover it. i HAVE to help him, so i'll be working on trying to figure out some kind of fundraising for his care.
i'm currently taking donations for him through my Throne wishlist page. (Thank you to the donor who already contributed before this post ❤️) We have been thinking about starting a GoFundMe for him. Would that be a good idea? Would any of you be interested in contributing? In addition, maybe a new paid fan site? Open to hearing your thoughts, advice, ideas, and kind words. your voice is appreciated in these trying times ❤️🩹

We tried using Meta's new Muse Code agent, but it has a bug that doesn't let it sign in from a docker container.
So we did a fun experiment: Meta claims Muse Spark 1.2 was co-trained with their Muse agent harness. So we extracted instructions from their system prompt and added them to the Cline harness.
TL;DR of this special prompting:
- Trust source code over the user prompt, so read every call site and existing tests before starting the task
- Weigh edge and error cases as heavily as the happy path
- Always reproduce the bug before fixing
- Don't trust the first passing test suite, and verify suspicious looking half-baked tests
- Never stop at just editing, keep working until the change is verified complete.
We then asked this modified harness to fix a real bug from our repo, and compared the results to the original Cline agent harness.
Results:
- Used 2.7x fewer tokens (19.7M → 7.2M)
- Finished 2x faster (49min → 24min)
- Cost 2.4x less ($7.69 → $3.25)
Same Muse Spark 1.2 model, same task, only the prompting changed. Incredible how much of a performance gain Meta was able to achieve training it on these special instructions!
