What happened to Dwayne Douglas Johnson,"The Rock"? From one of WWE's most muscular superstars to an almost unrecognizable old thinned man😳
Umur segini emang lebih rasional. Coba dulu nunda nikah, keburu sadar pacar w wkwk. Bisa bisa ga jadi nikah wkwkwk

The only animals that make orcas run away:
1. Humpback whales — they crash orca hunts, slap them with massive barnacle-covered flippers, and often drive them off (even when the prey isn’t another humpback).
2. Sperm whales — size + the “marguerite” defensive formation (heads in, tails out).
3. Long-finned pilot whales — smaller dolphin relatives that charge orcas and can make them flee from sound alone.
Apex predators… until these show up.

Seorang pria terjebak selama enam jam di dalam gorong-gorong depan GSG Pemda Tigaraksa, Kabupaten Tangerang, Jumat (6/11/2026).
Insiden bermula sekitar pukul 15.00 WIB saat korban masuk ke saluran air untuk menyelamatkan anak kucing.
Namun, ia tersesat dan merangkak hingga sejauh 120 meter.
Suara teriakan minta tolongnya teredam beton trotoar sebelum akhirnya didengar oleh pekerja proyek di sekitar lokasi.
Pekerja segera melaporkan kejadian ini ke Pos Damkar Tigaraksa.
Mengandalkan bantuan pencahayaan lampu senter dan petunjuk arah petugas, korban akhirnya berhasil dievakuasi dalam kondisi selamat pada pukul 20.21 WIB.

Andrej Karpathy:
“A 1B model can be much more effective than most current LLMs.
90% of current models waste a ton of capacity and money on remembering stuff that doesn’t matter.”
here is his 5 core thesis about Small LLM’s:
1. the intelligence was never the knowledge. Strip the memorized internet, keep the reasoning. What’s left is the cognitive core, and it’s small.
2. the core might fit in ~1B params. Maybe less. “Plenty of room at the bottom.” We’ve been paying for a library when we needed a brain.
3. size stopped being the bottleneck. What makes an agent work is the tools it can call and how tight the feedback loop is, not parameter count.
4. intelligence lives in the system, not the weights. A raw LLM is a CPU with no OS. Small core + good harness > giant model alone.
5. you can own it. A model on your hardware is one no one can rate-limit, price-hike, or deprecate on you.
in 12 months the gap between teams shipping on-device and teams paying per-token frontier bills won’t be capability.
TwIL an 8.8B model at 90%+ of frontier isn’t a benchmark flex.
It’s the thesis Karpathy’s been repeating all year, made real.
study more on this below ↓
Modest intelligence is arriving faster than most people realize.
Today, we're open-sourcing TwIL-8B.
Just 8.8 billion parameters, yet approaching frontier-model scores on several difficult benchmarks:
• 93% of frontier performance on coding
• 92% on instruction following
• 90% on contest mathematics
All from a model small enough to run on your own hardware.
But the benchmarks aren't the most important part of this announcement.
For years, the AI industry has focused on building the most capable model, regardless of the cost required to run it.
I believe that equation is changing.
The next era of AI will be defined by the cost of completing work. Not simply the intelligence of the model, but how efficiently that intelligence can accomplish the task.
If a model with 8 billion parameters can reliably complete the same work as one with hundreds of billions, why pay for the larger model?
As smaller models become more capable, intelligence becomes something we can distribute, specialize, and run across the hardware we already own.
That's the future we're building at @thewebAI
TwIL-8B is available today. Open weights.
And this is just the first of several announcements we're making today.

Anthropic is using nix in prod. Docker was too slow.

jujur kaget,
ternyata jumlah DOKTOR Ilmu Matematika/ Statistika di Indonesia tidak sampai 300 orang.
bahkan kalah jauh, dr Doktor Fisika yang 900 orang lebih. kalian kenapa sih, gada yang kuliah matematika sampai S3?

Ngeclaim canvassing itu dipopulerkan DSA itu absurd bgt.
Kandidat senator yg beneran member DSA yg maju di pemilu midterm saat ini itu Angie Nixon di FL, dan kalah di saat kandidat Dems lain yg lebih moderat berhasil flip southern states lain ke biru (termasuk MS lol).

The bug is like a joke.
On Alpine Linux, type 257 to 1024 characters of anything and you get root. 💀
‼️ BREAKING: OpenSSH has rushed out a fix for a critical flaw that lets attackers log into some Linux servers without the right password.
The team learned of the bug a day earlier. OpenSSH's Damien Miller says long embargoes now mostly help attackers, because AI agents rediscover bugs, sometimes within hours.
It hits Linux systems on the musl C library with PAM off, such as Alpine Linux. Miller told admins to disable password logins or SSH itself "IMMEDIATELY".
Version 10.6p2 works around it. Systems on glibc or PAM are not affected, and Miller says the root cause sits outside OpenSSH.

Langkah 0: critical thinking, curiosity, dan agency
Punya critical thinking. Ini itu make sense gak
Punya curiosity. Ini itu kenapa begitu
Punya agency. Ingin ini ingin itu banyak sekali
Semua semua semua, dapat dikabulkan
Dapat dikabulkan dengan AI ajaib
