Oh, you came to wish me a happy birthday—thank you.
Wait, flowers? Did you remember Family Day?

Would you like to come with me? I think Misha would love that, too.

I listened to 85 minutes of The Economist’s interview of Elon so you don’t have to. Besides, it’s behind a paywall.
Elon’s predictions: In five years, AI compute will exceed the sum of all human intelligence. In ten years, we will have reached the age of abundance. Money won’t matter. Everyone will have what they need or want (at least in economies that embrace AI).
Ms. Beddoes tried to pin Elon down on how the economy will transform that way, but he wouldn’t get into specifics beyond noting that widespread AI robotics is a deflationary force. This means governments won’t need to raise taxes for universal basic income schemes, or, as Elon likes to call it, universal high income, since they will simply be able to print money to ward off deflation caused by the robot economy.
She noted that Elon appears to have a more sanguine view of AI lately. He replied that he’s concluded superintelligent AI is now inevitable, so there’s no point trying to stop or slow it down, it can’t be done. We might as well enjoy the ride.
The interviewer also noted that Mars no longer seems to be Elon’s overall ambition. He answered that his real mission was always to propagate and preserve human consciousness into the far future. Mars was just a vehicle for that. But now AI is a very important part of that goal. AI will necessarily be part of any future plan.
And then came the oh-so-typical, increasingly tiresome part of most long journalist interviews: the interviewer constructs a straw-man version of Elon and argues against it. Elon carefully explained that he isn’t a raging far-right extremist, racist Nazi who kills puppies … and the journalist still didn't believe it. It is so effing tiresome.
The lack of self-awareness on the part of journalists is off the charts. She complained about Elon’s supposed misperception of how dangerous London is, while remaining oblivious to the role she plays in creating the giant misperception of Elon as a person in her own writing.
Elon defended his political views, saying he is for secure borders, locking up criminals, and balanced government spending, something even she had to admit didn’t sound crazy.
And… that’s about it for an 85-minute interview. I couldn’t help but think that the next long-form interview Elon does should be conducted by an AI.

I don't understand how this is possible.
There's been two shocking court verdicts from Sweden lately.
A man was set free by the court after r*ping a 14 year old girl. In the verdict, the court said the girl could have "just walked away".
But a woman was convicted after WARNING about a man who was convicted of s*xually assaulting a 13 year old girl.
The woman was convicted for defamation after she had warned about the man in a private group chat and must now pay compensation to the man and do 30 hours youth service.
This just should not happen.

I've completely soured on ChatGPT 5.6 sol ultra
ChatGPT 5.6 sol medium is my new go-to
Ultra consistently over the last few days overengineered everything I've given it. It's also painfully slow
Medium is the sweet spot. Quick, while also narrow scoped
My new stack:
• Planning/complex tasks: Fable 5 high
• Simple tasks: ChatGPT 5.6 sol medium
• Hermes/OpenClaw ChatGPT 5.6 sol medium (even got great results on low tbh)
• Testing: Codex (seems to be a bit better with browser/computer use)
I liked Ultra at first, but lately for almost every task I give it it widens the scope to unreasonable levels, ignores my anti-goals, and will take tasks that should take no longer than 2 minutes and make them last literally 2 hours
Efficiency is now the name of the game

Been loving this as background sound lately.
The creator blends the Yamanote line's station jingles, announcements, door chimes and train noise into one full audio experience of Tokyo's most-loved loop line. Feels exactly like actually riding it.

Ja Morant on Portland: “It rains a lot. I got took fishing in the rain. … Lately, I’ve been kind of into nature. That’s a bonus for me. I’m not hiking! But I can go walking, ride a bike, I’ve been kayaking.”

I’ve been using OMENX lately for prediction event contract trading, and the experience has been pretty solid.
My returns went up as much as 500%.

Been shipping a lot of updates to Mole CLI lately. Recent releases brought a major cleanup output redesign, much smarter uninstall detection, significantly faster cleanup on large machines, mo status --watch for AI agents and automation, and plenty of architecture work behind the scenes.
Safety also got a big upgrade. Mole now protects Endpoint Security and EDR tools, handles multiple edge cases more gracefully, improves deletion validation, and avoids touching user data or live applications when the system can’t provide reliable information.
There are lots of new cleanup targets too, including LM Studio, Chrome on-device AI models, JetBrains leftovers, Handoff clipboard staging, plus many fixes across Xcode, Anki, Clash Verge, Homebrew, Spotlight, and more.
If you’re already using Mole, I think you’ll notice the difference. As always, Mole CLI is free and open source:
