Jensen's out at Nvidia. Wild stuff.

He talks to his sound team like they're an LLM. Theres a lesson there, probably
Michael Mann is a genius. If you look at his notes to his sound mix and edit team, it is amazing. He does not speak in technical terms at all. He speaks purely with regard to emotions & reactions he wants to elicit. And he trusts his technicians to do the needful since they know their medium best.. and they are all artists too.

Nobel price winner Frank Wilczek (physics) describes his dad as a repairman who never finished high school but was trying to do night school when he was a kid to finish his degree. He ordered books on calculus and so on, and young Frank was reading and learning them right alongside his dad. His dad was a bit miffed about it, a little self conscious. But Frank described him as ultimately supportive.
I always feel for the young children who are significantly smarter than their parents.

If anyone comes to your door and is polite, give them a candy. Life isn't easy for anyone.
Friendly reminder that if teenagers come up for candy, just give it to them. Life isn't going to get easier for them. Let them cling to the tatters of their childhood as long as they can.

Meta has all these data centers and compute, but the actual FB web-app works like absolute dogshit. I dont get it? Do they simply not care because they know boomers will use it anyway?

Some woman was just texting with both hands looking straight down as her tesla jerked up towards a stop sign. I didnt notice what car she was in, only that she clearly had no idea me and my dog were standing waiting to cross. I tapped her hood and told her to she should consider driving while at the steering wheel. She rolled down the window with the pompous air of someone who thinks shes riding a spaceship. "Its a Tesla it drives itself honey". I don't trust thesr cars with my life, not until the insurance companies charge more to insure me than the software to drive.
I just canceled my Full Self Driving subscription, and I’m posting this in hopes someone at @Tesla sees and can fix the most recent update. My car tried to kill me 4x yesterday. It’s veering off the road randomly and slamming on the breaks on highways for no reason. FSD has gone from the biggest selling point for owning a Tesla to a serious liability. From significantly safer than a human to outright dangerous to use. This new update (2026.38.5.11 HW3) should not have been released. This is going to kill people and Tesla needs to do something as soon as possible. @elonmusk

So for the camera noobs like me... check if your iphone shoots RAW in the first place. None of my existing photos are in raw format so they can't be put through this app.
So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. apps.apple.com/app/apple-sto…

If Joe Biden did this, he would have been removed by end of day
Trump on Jon Husted: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

X has the most bizarre ads. Is Jagmeet even in politics anymore? How many retarded boomers even use this app that they are spending money on these terrible ai ads?

Might be true but if it is, it's not that the office is so great but that people have no idea what to do with themselves so they need to kill 2+ hours of their day getting dressed and commuting so they have less time to stew in their own negative thoughts
My strongest “vibes not evidence” belief is that remote work is a cancer that’s making (most) people miserable even though it seems better in the short term.

"Anyone can make games with AI" Okay go ahead, go make one. An actual good one. If you remove the technical hurdle, all you get is a bunch of good looking boring stuff. Games are hard because the actual concept of a game is not intuitive. Games are about rules, boundaries, mechanics, ideas, and how they all feel to engage in. Look at how many terrible games release every year with 7, 8,9 figure budgets but still suck. Ubisoft pumps out Assassins Creed slop yearly and none of them are any good. Meanwhile, there are indie games with potato graphics that still retain tons of players. Look at Slay the Spire - it could look a lot better but it doesnt need to. You could vibe code STS today in a few days, but the real magic is the fine tuning of the cards, the drop rates, and the concept of the classes and emergent gameplay the devs honed in on. They sifted through a shitload of telemetry to figure out where players were quitting, and to figure out hte right shape for their meta-progression, which is perhaps the main ingredient in their secret sauce. You cannot vibe code that stuff. You can vibe code the tests and telemetry but you would need to know what to look for, and you would need some feeling for what players find fun, because fun in video games involves a certain level of failure which is very finely tuned. Too much and its frustrating. Too little and its boring.

What's with all the young men who get upset when someone on twitter tells them to try and meet women in person? Are you all just complete pussies? Have the new generation of young men internalized the idea that they should not be subject to the crucial developmental stage of courtship which involves getting rejected by women regularly, and often? Get over yourselves. Get in there. The reason you're afraid of rejection is the same reason you have no success with women. You can blame the apps or society or tiktok, but in the end it's really just a mixture of fear and shame. You hate the status quo of how the dating apps work, but you refuse to get off of them because it's safer to sit and swipe and get ghosted than to get out there and stare a woman in the eyes as she tells you she's not interested in you. I think you all spend too much time on tiktok watching clips of clickbait-creators complaining about 'creepy men'. That's all bullshit designed for engagement. There are limitless ways to do low-stakes approaches that are respectful and signal nothing creepy or aggressive to the woman. There is always a fast, easy out when a woman isn't interested. If we take the analogy of courtship vs finding a job, approaching in person is like skipping straight to the first interview versus being a single resume in a massive stack of them. On the apps, you are commodified into a thumb-swipe consisting of a handful of pictures that has to compete with dozens/hundreds of other matches the woman has on her screen. Your pictures are probably not the best ones. And your opening text messages are probably not enough to move the needle either. So you get a match, text, nothing happens and then you grow resentful. Or worse, you don't even get a match. Worse still, you end up losing confidence in yourself. And then you come on Twitter and complain that us old fucks "don't get it" and that our advice sucks. You're wrong. You're just afraid of rejection. That's it. You're running away from a situation that will elicit an emotion. Nothing wrong with that, but if you never come to grips with what the actual problem is, you will forever run from the emotion instead of just feeling it. Approaching a woman in public achieves one immediate, all-important thing. It signals to her: I am not a complete pussy. It also signals that for all of life's innumerable challenges, you possess the qualities that can overcome them, which is exactly what she is looking for in a man. If the current culture is that nobody is approaching anymore, isn't the value of doing it VASTLY more valuable? If you can't approach her to say hi, what can she really expect out of you?
