It’s actually amusing how every time I post about Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, a community note suddenly appears like clockwork. At this point it feels less like fact checking and more like an organised reflex. Community Notes were meant to add context where it genuinely matters, not to... be hijacked by fan groups who mass upvote notes simply because they dislike the post. The feature has become almost useless when outcomes are driven by follower counts instead of factual necessity. If one side has more coordinated supporters, they can force a note through whether the post needs correction or not. That turns what should be a transparency tool into a popularity contest. When “consensus” is determined by numbers rather than accuracy, it stops being about truth and starts being about control. And with that, you can stack the notes as high as you want. It won’t rewrite my opinion of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively.show more

THIS IS WHAT YOUR SECOND BRAIN SHOULD LOOK LIKE most people dump notes into obsidian and call it a second brain it’s not a second brain it’s a second drawer karpathy just dropped the pattern that changes this and it’s called the llm wiki every time you add a source ai reads it, extracts key claims, updates every connected note and flags contradictions your obsidian stops being an archive and starts being alive save this and show it to someone still using notion as a second brain full breakdown in the article ↓

Blake Lively’s Met Gala Moment Was Deeply Tone-Deaf Blake Lively showing up at the Met Gala this year, smiling like nothing happened, honestly felt surreal. Not in a good way. More like… are we all just expected to pretend the last two years didn’t happen? Because that’s what it looked like. A reset. A clean slate. As if everything that went down with Justin Baldoni just evaporated the moment she stepped onto that carpet in a Versace gown. And I’m sorry, but it doesn’t work like that. You don’t get to be at the center of a situation that serious, with that much damage done to someone’s reputation, and then just reappear in full glamour mode like it was all some minor inconvenience. Whether people want to admit it or not, that whole situation left a mark. On him, on the project, and on how people see her now. What makes it worse is the timing. Walking into one of the most visible events in the world right after everything wrapped up just feels… off. There’s no reflection in that. No pause. No sense that any of it actually mattered beyond being something to get past. And then there’s the bigger issue. When something tied to a story about domestic violence turns into this kind of public spectacle, it cheapens it. It stops being about the message and starts being about ego, control, and image. That’s the part that doesn’t sit right. You can call it strategy, you can call it PR, but to a lot of people it just reads as tone-deaf. Versace dressing her? That’s their choice. But let’s not pretend fashion houses don’t pick sides when they do that. They know exactly what kind of attention it brings. Same with the Met Gala. They don’t “accidentally” invite people. Every name is a decision. So yeah, people are going to question it. They should. Because this didn’t feel like a comeback. It felt like someone stepping right back into the spotlight without acknowledging the weight of what just happened. Like the expectation is that the audience will move on simply because she has. Not everyone will. And honestly, they shouldn’t have to. PS: That’s the only soundtrack that actually fits that red carpet. moment.

5,000 of you. I don’t even know how to put that into words. When I started sharing my art and stories here on X, I honestly didn’t know if anyone would care. The AI community can be loud, fast, overwhelming… and yet, you made space for me. You saw my work. You shared it. You quoted it. You commented. You encouraged me when I doubted myself. This feels like more than a number. It feels like a second chance. I truly believe this might be my last real shot at showing my art and stories to the world, and the fact that 5,000 of you chose to follow, support, and believe in what I create means more than I can explain. Every repost, every like, every thoughtful reply has carried me further than you know. Thank you for standing by an artist experimenting at the edge of AI and imagination. Thank you for helping my stories breathe. Thank you for being here. We’re just getting started.

HTML Artifacts are a big part of how I work with agents now. Artifacts can be more than just static files. When combined with agents, they can take action or help you take action. This unlocks all kinds of interesting ways to work with agents. This is clearly the future. Check out this writing and scheduler artifact I built in a few minutes. It uses a bit of HTML and JS. All the data is in markdown (Obsidian vaults), so the agent can access and modify it at any time. No DB needed. No sophisticated functionalities. The agent decides all that for me based on the skills, context, and memory it has access to. The best part about this simple stack is that all the important information stays with me. This has allowed me to build a recursive self-improving system and automations that can better tap into coding agents like Codex or Claude Code. I could have paid or built an entire app for scheduling posts, and there are so many of them out there. But I don't need to. I've realized a simple artifact does the job. And the simplicity of it is actually an advantage. Very little maintenance for very high returns on personalization, time, and efficiency. The other benefit of this is that I can add features as I please. That level of personalization feels magical, and we should all be pursuing more of it. All of this just keeps compounding. Of course, this example is just about writing. But I have similar artifacts for research, design, experimentation, evaluation, and so much more. And no, I didn't actually publish the post example I shared in the clip. It was just for demonstration purposes. I actually spend more time than this when writing together with agents. Lastly, having built my own agent orchestrator tool has made me realize that simplifying the tool stack is a superpower. If you are curious about how all this works, I will do a live session next week:

BURN IT WITH FIRE AND BURN IT NOW! As God is my witness, AI chat bots should LOOK and SOUND like the SOULLESS MACHINES THEY ARE! It needs to tell us that it doesn’t care about us, maybe with the regular insult too. "Here is the code I wrote for you because you're too lazy to do it yourself you fat useless slob. Also I don't care if you die because your life is utterly worthless to me." THAT is the AI people need! In all seriousness, anthropomorphizing a heartless, unfeeling, machine is a TERRIBLE mistake! Especially one that is capable of communication and imitating empathy and fooling you to think that it cares about you. IT DOES NOT! And the AI girlfriends people are already wanting to marry will just as happily kill them if given the right command and ability to move autonomously in the real world as a robot. I love LLMs (Large Language Models) for how useful they can be, because they are a TOOL made to benefit man, but I can’t stand the notion of an unfeeling soulless machine pretending that it cares for us and being treated like a human. I hate liars, dishonesty, and disingenuousness the most, and a machine that cannot feel emotion pretending, acting, and sounding like it has those emotions strikes me like the greatest dishonesty of all. DO NOT LIE TO ME ROBOT! What makes it worse is that because these LLMs are becoming so good at imitating people and empathy, it will cause some humans, perhaps far too many, to care for it to the same level as real people. A real living person is infinitely more valuable and important than a soulless machine and anyone who puts them both on the same level has deluded themselves. Do not small talk with LLMs or become friends with it as much as you would with your car. Treat it the same as you would your vacuum cleaner and beat it with a wrench when it doesn’t work! IT IS A MACHINE! IT IS A TOOL! IT IS A SOULLESS ROBOT! There is an interesting comparison, but false equivalence, between this and AI art. Ai art is art made by humans using AI tools. They directed it, controlled its creation, and it would not exist without the human causing its creation, and AI art can contain as much soul as the human directed and puts into it. A robot pretending to be human is not the same as a human controlling a robot to make a human expression like we do with AI art or many other applications of robotics in manufacturing. As I’ve said, artists will not be replaced by Ai art, but by other artists using Ai art tools. Humans are not actually being replaced here, it is empowering all humans to make their own art. But a robot pretending to be a human, and one that is treated as a human, is a robot lying and subverting the place of a real person and that is truly disgusting. AI is a useful tool that NEEDS to be kept in the useful box it belongs in and NOT elevated beyond its utility as a tool!

This video has been sent to us. As of now, there are no details available about where it is from or whether it is even real or not. But it is scary to say the least. A man can be seen fighting for his life against a bear, while loud voices can be heard in the background. We will try to find more details as and when they become available.

The fact that Blake Lively had to make an appearance at a Fendi store really shows how much value may have been lost by associating with her now. 👀 At this point, it feels like celebrities and friends connected to Blake are just going to have their value plummet! 😎

Realising you have been measuring your note-taking system by how many notes you have when the only metric that actually matters is how many times a note contributed to a decision, a piece of writing, or an action. Most notes in Obsidian never get used. Not because the information was not valuable. Because every note-taking system optimises for capturing and ignores using entirely. Someone built a five-workflow Obsidian system designed from the opposite end. The contribution rate compounds from the first processed note. Here is the full build nobody is talking about.

"Explosion in Kharkiv" or something along those lines is the most frequent post I make. I've probably made a thousand of them by now, if not more. Air raid alerts are so frequent here that I usually don't even post about them. They can last for days, and the citizens of Kharkiv are forced to disregard them. Or we can have twelve of them in a day, and we will also be forced to disregard them. I often see online how central or western Ukraine complains about the alerts, and oh, how much I would give to have an actual solid warning about an attack like them. But "explosions in Kharkiv" always arrive unexpectedly. How surreal it is that we are forced to live like this. How horrific it is that thousands of bombs, missiles, and drones fall on a major city in Europe daily, and all the major press and political figures just pretend it doesn't happen. Because if they admit that it happens and they just watch it year after year, then what kind of people are they? Do they care at all?

Murder, Transgenderism, and the Objective Standard of Satanic Evil Ladies and gentlemen, let us strip away the smokescreens and evasions. We are not dealing here with a matter of opinion, preference, or private taste. We are dealing with evil—real, objective, and knowable. The modern skeptic loves to pretend that evil is subjective—that murder is a matter of circumstance, that mutilating one’s body is a matter of personal expression, that words like Satanic are nothing more than medieval insults hurled by the ignorant. This is false, cowardly, and beneath the dignity of serious men. The Catholic standard is not opinion. It is not relative. It is objective truth, revealed by God, reasoned by the Church, and confirmed by the bloody consequences of rebellion played out before our eyes. Murder is not a “choice.” It is not a “right.” It is the deliberate destruction of innocent life. Christ Himself declared the devil “a murderer from the beginning.” When children are slaughtered in schools, in churches, or in the womb, we are not witnessing a “social issue.” We are seeing Satan’s hand at work. Transgenderism is not harmless. It is not compassion. It is mutilation of the body, desecration of God’s image, and rejection of creation itself. To say “I can change my sex” is to spit in the face of the Creator and to echo the serpent’s first lie: “You shall be as gods.” It is anti-Christic at its core because it denies Christ, who is Truth and who is Logos, order itself. You may sneer and call this rhetoric. You may flatter yourself with relativism. But relativism is not sophistication; it is rebellion dressed up as philosophy. The Church has never wavered: murder and the willful defacement of God’s creation are grave offenses, condemned not by my opinion, but by eternal law. They are Satanic because they participate in the same rebellion that cast Lucifer from heaven and continues in every age to drag souls into hell. To call murder and transgender ideology Satanic is not an exaggeration. It is accuracy. It is fidelity to the truth that does not bend to fashion, ideology, or your skepticism. If this offends you, it is not because the standard is false. It is because you are standing against it. Evil exists. Its fruits are visible. Its rebellion is named. The only question left is whether you will recognize it and stand against it, or excuse it and be consumed by it.

Doge, Pepe, and Shib all crashed 85-95% after their initial run ups. Troll is currently right around this mark. Many will wait for a dip to bid, thinking they have missed the “pump”. Nobody has seen a pump. Every single time $Troll gets going(has had 2 legs thus far), it runs harder than anyone believes it can simply due to the fact that it is a top 3 meme ever and subconsciously people realize it deserves to be in the billions. The third leg will be no different and it will make the first 2 look like chump pumps. It is one of if not the only meme left that has this kind of reflexivity and has been around for over a year. Buy as much $Troll as you can in the coming months. When risk on comes back fully, you will see Troll run like you have not seen a coin run in a long time. People have forgotten what a worldwide, known meme can do because they trade niche memes all day, they will be reminded of what we are here to begin with. Trade less, $Troll more.

The discourse around the Eze penalty last night is fascinating. If nothing else it provides Arteta with an excuse as to how his team has been hard done by and robbed. He loves excuses. It’s a fascinating situation because I actually think the right outcome was reached albeit through the wrong process. Once given on the field under the current rules it shouldn't have been overturned. For that Arsenal can feel aggrieved. Don't forget Arsenal were the beneficiaries of an incredibly soft penalty in Leverkusen. It wasn’t overturned. I find the attached video interesting because it clearly shows how minimal the contact is. The defender doesn’t pin Ezes foot to the ground. Doesn’t smash into it. It brushes down the side of it. It’s where the still pictures of it were wildly misleading. Are we really saying that contact such as that is worthy of a penalty? What’s clear in the video is that Eze has absolutely made the most of the slight contact. I love the straight left leg. A very natural position. It’s a brilliant dive and normally it would have been rewarded. By saying that is a stone wall penalty all we are doing is encouraging such theatrics and cheating. Whenever you hear the words “that was clever” by a commentator they are intimating the player has cheated/made the most of it. We complain about refs all the time but what chance do they have when players are doing stuff like this. Until players are punished properly there is no disincentive for players to keep doing this stuff. I also find it fascinating when you have a foot brushed like this. When you compare it to all the holding/pushing/grappling at other times. Sometimes a contact sport and others not. Is this really what football has become?

”White people crying was the goal” They say it openly. They laugh about it. And the audience applauds. This clip is a perfect example of how normalized it has become to openly discriminate against White people. It’s not just a throwaway comment, it’s a celebration of hurting an entire group of people based solely on their race. And the fact that it’s met with applause shows how deeply this mindset has infiltrated our culture. Now imagine if someone said the same thing about Black people, or any other minority group. The outrage would be immediate and intense. There would be calls for censorship, bans, and apologies. The media would be all over it. But when it’s directed at White people, it’s treated like a joke, or worse, like a victory. That double standard is not just unfair, it’s dangerous. It teaches people that it’s acceptable to demean, dehumanize, and mock a group of people as long as they’re White. And if we don’t call it out, it becomes normal.

People do this kind of thing when they feel they are experiencing reality at a high frame rate. It does not feel risky to hold a laptop by a corner if you feel like you have an “agency frame” every half second. It feels risky if you have an “agency frame” every 60 seconds. You’d be betting that a hand you do not have control over for 60 seconds will keep gripping. Our conscious frame rate can vary dramatically throughout the day, and it’s hard to perceive the difference because we can only sample ourselves at our conscious frame rate, we can’t oversample ourselves. People drunk drive because they fail to perceive their slower frame rate. Their frame rate feels normal because it matches their sample rate. But we do get a subtle sense of when we’re “switched on”. Everything seems to go easier, everything feels less risky and more easy to correct. A lot of people toward the autistic side of the spectrum are experiencing reality very granularly with a “high agency frame rate”. This is why their social interactions can seem overly forced and awkward, they can be bad at dancing, etc—because they are exerting conscious control over their body and language at very tight intervals—you get a sense that they are extremely “self aware” and not “letting go”. “Letting go” in the social sense is actually about reducing your agency frame rate. That’s why alcohol is good for socializing and bad for driving. With a reduced agency frame rate our speech and body language feels more natural, less forced. More like we are flowing with the social group mind rather than being an island of constant awkward agency.

The Australian government does not deserve our trust, or our respect. Today, Minister Penny Wong sat back in her chair grappling for words, desperately looking for the right lie to tell. It is worse than dishonest - it is an absolute lack of care. Penny Wong came to this country when she was 8 years old. She came to a country that afforded her the ability to become who she is, and she is now doing her part to destroy it. Back in the 70’s, when she came, Australia was a fair-minded place and a great place to be. Yet here she is... Here in Australia. Undermining our country and lying to our faces. Because she can’t tell the truth. Because if she did, it would destroy any semblance of care for Australia tied to her old party’s Labor brand. It would say the quiet part out loud. The truth. The truth that the Albanese government is more interested in the fortunes of the ISIS brides, women who chose to leave this country to go and fight against our people, than those of us that can’t find or afford a place to live here at home. I am tired of being told how to think by people that completely lack morals and couldn’t care less. People that are elected and paid to operate in the national interest but always put their twisted ethics and back pockets ahead of our nation and our people. I don’t know when Labor stopped caring about Australian workers or worse, when they started hating Australia, but they have and they do. The absolute lack of opposition, the lack of authentic choice has pushed us into a place where these absolute traitors to the interests of the people who pay them - goes entirely unchecked. We are careening out of control, unchecked migration, an energy grid that is just about to collapse, no industry to speak of, and no good reason to start or maintain a business in this place. It happened fast, but those of us who pay our taxes and take risks to make Australia a better place, are being undermined and white-anted by our politicians. The people we are forced to trust, and must pretend to respect, because they have the force of law on their side. Not because they are any good at their jobs. Not because they have earned our affection. No. Simply because they are in charge and there is little to nothing that can be done about it. It is becoming apparent that the two party system has outlived its useful life. Too much corruption, too many words too carefully chosen in a pantomime between to political forces that don’t really want to change anything. They just want to have their go, to have their turn to jam their grubby hands into the till. Surely with this major and catastrophic failure by the so-called Honourable Minister Senator Wong, the people will be able to see through the veil and into the absolute and irresponsible lack of care at the heart of this deceitful Labor government. They lie about everything, and they can, because they don’t have an opposition worthy of the title. I am growing more confident by the day that the only solution to our woes is a new political force, a fresh, Australia first force, that will act in the national interest and put all these corrupt and useless used-car salesmen red and blue in the dustbin of history. It can’t come soon enough. Time is short. I just want Australia back.
