Working with AI requires perpetually operating at the edge of sanity. You have to recalibrate your mental model of AI capabilities and your own job description every few months, without getting delusional about seemingly infinite productivity gains, or feeling threatened by losing what you thought was the uniquely human part of your job, or obsessing over the perfect setup, or losing your mind over the clumsiness and jaggedness of agents, or ... Maybe AI literacy needs to be less about prompting and more about improving emotional regulation.

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…

Every religion in history has promised miracles and warned of the apocalypse. Anthropic is the first to file both with the SEC.

It's so weird though. To have been tonked by a team ranked even lower than grimsby town and not feel anything. Truly winning the premier league is a magic elixir whose taste i had completely forgotten.

God I’m tired of this stuff. The permanent underclass already exists and they’re not random people in the Bay Area worried about losing their white collar jobs
most people are not psychologically ready for the possibility of a permanent underclass

Another way the current administration is trapped in the ZERO-SUM FALLACY: The H-1B visa situation. + You are NOT taking a job from a citizen, rather creating jobs by increasing overal economic output. Plus these people (even vegetarians) SPEND locally. + The US has long been benefiting from other countries' brain drain; without it its edge wd collapse. Tesla, Von Braun, von Neumann, Fermi & Einstein did NOT each take the job of a citizen. + It the problem is anti-Indian racism, say it, don't play games.

Kasparov is the best evidence that one can be both retarded and Chess grandmaster.
Maybe next year they’ll give the Chemistry prize to a Hamas bomb maker.

Astra is basically AGI. And it is absolutely shocking to me how bottlenecked my life still is. By me. All of the things that are stopping me from moving forward are still only resolvable by me. I have more work than ever
