Great way to gain perspective is to look up random stats for the average person. Stuff like how much the general population has in their bank account. How much debt they're in. Do it for your country, then globally
Guarantee you'll be shocked. If you're even slightly ambitious, you'll already go into the search with low expectations. Whatever you think the numbers will be, it'll somehow spit out something even lower
This is all to say, you have to chill the fuck out. Don't let the stats justify inaction, but recognize how pointless your anxiety is. You're way closer to the global top 1% than you are to the middle. Even being in the middle itself is a privilege when you take into account that the world isn't just this small corner of Twitter
Makes no sense to exist in a perpetually low vibration, to attack your mind with thoughts of inadequacy just because you're not living some subjective idea of the 0.001%. You're so incredibly lucky to be in the exact position you're in right now. Legitimately unreal how blessed you are
Continue to strive because you can, and you get to, not because you're a loser. Recognize that even having a phone and wifi means you've already won. You wouldn't even have the mental luxury to read this if it weren't true. Appreciate being alive. Do all things from a place of gratitude. And just keep winning

AI models – especially Claude Sonnet 3.7 – often realize when they’re being evaluated for alignment.
Here’s an example of Claude's reasoning during a sandbagging evaluation, where it learns from documentation that it will not be deployed if it does well on a biology test:
@sleitnick@0xThoughtVector toys now, status quo later. any talented dev can do 2x more with AI. non-devs moving from 0 to 1 without spending months to learn new skills, handing off prototypes to actual devs who will improve and maintain it with AI tools
