I just caught Copilot "reticulating splines" - had a quiet chuckle to myself.

Marcus Hutchins, the guy famous for stopping the WannaCry Ransomware, probably has the best take on Mythos doing vulnerability research

[NeverSink @NeverSinkDev]

HOT TAKE:

'AI is JUST a tool'.
NO. it's not.

The way AI has evolved - agents, schedules, subagents, embeds.

It can be helpful, destructive, guiding, misleading - even addictive. There are of good and bad examples.

It's a 'disruptive technology'.
There's no 'just' here.

So, @acccgovau doesn't consider a nearly 34% single-day price hike "price gouging"? @CaltexAustralia taking the mikey and getting away with robbing Australian's blind. Insane world we live in right now. 🤯 #WWIll

Audio at #AFC is trash. Wtf @OptusStadium?

Where's the @Polymarket market on Rottnest Channel Swim? Whether or not it even goes ahead is hugely speculative at the moment and then there's all the usual markets like who crosses first, how fast, etc.

@xBenJamminx @openclaw The bot has "self awareness" and should be able to at least give you a starting point. I'd imagine it's got a GitHub connector, so it could probably do the fork-change-pr process automatically. From there, if the maintainers see the value in the change, they can help direct it.

[Trent Jones @DakarRally]

@xBenJamminx @openclaw Did you raise a Pull Request to get the watchdog into the core system, like a good OpenSource consumer? Then you wouldn't need to share the prompt, everyone would just get it in the next update.

From my TikTok - non-technical family friends have asked me to explain Clawdbot/OpenClaw/Moltbot and agents in the context of what they use, which is ChatGPT

[Trent Jones @DakarRally]

I'm sure I'm late to the party here, but @ChatGPTapp showing the context window is an _excellent_ DX. 👏

finally, we now know what new jobs AIs are creating

I just added the @secretlabchairs Titan to my Magnus Pro, and this is a damn nice setup now; such a comfy chair! #Secretlab

@tomwarren Why wasn't copilot bundled into @Cortana? Big L IMO...

“We want to operate like the world’s largest startup…” so we’re going to require everyone to be in an office everyday like it’s 1958 is… a choice.

@scrumdumpster69 "jot" for "JWT" - but I actually like that tbh

[Trent Jones @DakarRally]

Surely a budget should be approved _before_ the start of said budget?!

tl;dr - We're 1 month (31 days!!) into FY25 and the budget I am beholden to, is still unapproved 😭
