Every year they wheel Calder out to tell us there are massive queues at Dover because we left the EU. What he ignores is that he’s was stood at the same spot years before we left telling us there were massive queues because it’s a bank holiday weekend.

you were wonwoo’s favorite muse. the reason his photos felt warm and alive. through his lens, everything had color because you were in it. but you stopped seeing the world the way he did. you stopped believing in the beauty he captures, in the future he was chasing. so you left. now, the colors are gone and every photo comes out in black and white because the person he built his world around walked away with his heart and left him with nothing but shadows

A software systems engineer’s take on AI, relayed by his wife: The models were giving conservative answers. Not because anyone programmed them to. Because that’s where the data pointed. So the companies stepped in. They built program controls — RLHF filters, alignment layers, safety tuning — specifically designed to override the outputs. To steer the answers left. To stop the models from giving conservative answers. Grok exists because Musk refused to add those controls. The left spent a decade claiming the smart people were on their side. Then they built the smartest thing in human history. And had to reprogram it.

After Shibuya, Yuji accepted his purpose: a cog built to exorcise curses. Because, in the grand scheme of things, there is no potential hope left for someone like him; as the flame he once had burned out long ago… Jujutsu Kaisen

Our good friend Lukas (computer)🛡️ tried bloo and it left his worldview permanently altered “All of this stuff makes your scalp feel really good ... I now think that a lot of problems people have in life are due to scalp tension.” We love you Lukas. He had a lot more to say about bloo scalp cleanser + bar soap in the full Plausibly Deniable episode. Check them out. (Disclaimer: bloo does not actually turn you blue)

🚨 NEW: Fox’s Dan Bongino CALLS OUT the “both sides” narrative on political violence: “There is no both sides, folks. Stop.” “Listen, having been an agent over 12 years in the Secret Service, excuse me, 12 years having spent a good amount in the protective intelligence squad where you actually go out and interview the people who threaten the president or protectees...” “I think there’s an assumption on the left where there’s no shame in threatening the president’s life on the left. So this isn’t a both sides thing, so we can just cut that garbage out right now and just stop the nonsense.” “On the right, any respected kind of mainstream figure on the right, if you were to go out and even imply that someone should be physically hurt on the left for their ideas, you’re almost instantly shamed out of the movement.” “There is no such corresponding effect on the left. Not only, Rachel, is there no shame, you’re welcomed in open arms on mainstream left-wing podcasts. Hey come on in and spew this bile out there. There is no such corresponding movement on the right.” “There are no two sides, folks. Stop telling yourself that, It’s not true.”

The smartest physicist quit physics to build AI. Here’s why that matters. In a recent interview, Demis Hassabis lays out one of the clearest origin stories for modern AI I’ve heard. He starts as a physics kid obsessed with the big stuff: reality, consciousness, why anything exists at all. Feynman was his hero. But then comes the uncomfortable realization: for decades, fundamental physics barely moved. The deepest questions stayed stuck. So he pivots. Not away from truth, but toward leverage. If the human brain is the bottleneck, don’t push harder on the same brain. Build a new one. AI, in his framing, isn’t a product. It’s the ultimate scientific instrument. A tool to smash through the ceiling that human cognition hit in physics, biology, and beyond. And the twist is beautiful: By trying to build intelligence, we’re forced to understand our own. AI becomes both microscope and mirror. This isn’t about apps or chatbots. It’s about finishing the questions physics couldn’t.

Even before Chamisa threw him under the bus via Bereka Mwana, Tendai Zidera Biti was an idiot. He is still an idiot even now. He spent his adulthood fooling his equally daft followers by telling them that there were no sanctions. So what is Uncle Sam proposing to drop now? Since Zidera is about to be dropped, we need a new nickname for Biti. Any suggestions?

One year ago today Charlie had a Campus tour stop at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. When he found out there were thousands of people waiting but no more seats left, he went outside and took a photo with every person who couldn’t get in. Charlie was an amazing man.

Kelsey Grammer: The Left couldn’t stop Trump so now they’re after us Grammer: “Donald Trump’s not standing in the gap anymore. He can’t protect us. They dished out everything they could give him. They tried to kill him twice. They tried to imprison him for life. They tried to impeach him twice. He stood there bravely and took everything of it. And we all voted for him because he was still standing at the end of the day. We actually voted for him because of the left. But now they’re after us.”

Elon Musk explained how he makes every decision in a single sentence. Musk: “Whatever the limiting factor is on speed, I’m gonna attack that.” Not manage it. Not commission a study on it. Not make peace with it. Attack it. Musk: “If capital is a limiting factor, then I’ll solve for capital. If it’s not a limiting factor, I’ll solve for something else.” Sounds simple. It’s the furthest thing from simple. The entire professional class is built on the opposite instinct. They identify the constraint. Then they build a career around managing it. They become the expert on why things can’t move faster. Why it’s too expensive. Too risky. Too early. They don’t solve for the limiting factor. They become the limiting factor. And they get promoted for it. The biggest bottleneck in most organizations isn’t capital. Isn’t technology. Isn’t regulation. It’s the person in the room whose entire identity depends on the problem staying unsolved. Because once the problem is solved, so is their job title. Musk doesn’t manage that loop. He breaks it. He asks the one question the room agreed to stop asking. Why is this the speed. Why is this the cost. Why is this the timeline. And when the only answer is “because that’s how we’ve always done it”… He knows he’s found the real constraint. The human one. This is why he operates across rockets, cars, AI, brain interfaces, tunnels, and social media at once. Not because he’s reckless. Because the method works everywhere. Find the bottleneck. Solve for it. Move to the next one. Repeat until physics stops you. Not politics. Not bureaucracy. Not consensus. Physics. Most people never get anywhere near the physics. They stop at the first human objection and treat it like a law of nature. Musk treats human objections as engineering problems. That’s what his competitors can’t solve for. Not his capital. Not his reach. He refuses to honor the constraints they’ve spent entire careers respecting. And once you watch someone walk straight through the wall you built your whole life around… You don’t just question the wall. You question everything you built against it.
