It’s a known money laundering scheme to buy a lottery ticket from an actual winner with your dirty cash so you can claim the winnings as income. Obviously what was happening here, and it confirms the criminal enterprise more than it discounts the lottery.

There is an underappreciated phenomena where one generation of intellectuals says stuff that is rhetorically effective but they never act on it because they don't actually believe it but the next generation doesn't realize that the rhetoric was fake and suddenly acts on the inevitable outworking of the previous generation's unserious rhetoric

Something that implies an area you can keep recreating and tweaking. Templates are so often “only for power users” in creation and “only for people who don’t care” in consumption but encouraging users to keep iterating on them could change that.

@dbmikus Not just sticks, but clubs. A spectacular rejection of AI voicing.

@signulll I’ve legit wanted to do this in my own apartment for my AC.

@dbmikus The palantir guy must have called it something by now that’s his take too

If it’s what the harvesters look for and I’m still in the super market getting unripe watermelons what the fuck am I listening to them for?

[End3of6Days9 (Helen) 🇺🇸 @end3of6days9]

Most people pick watermelons by looking for that yellow spot on the bottom, but that’s actually not the best way to tell if it’s ripe.

This guy shows what the people who harvest them actually look for — and it’s something a lot of us have been ignoring. Way more reliable than just going off the color of the belly.

Do you have any grocery store hacks that turned out to be wrong once you learned the real way?

His point about us needing 1 image is🤯. Has anyone tried using the image and 3d object rotation algorithms to create more images from a single seed to train off of and essentially train off of 1 image + “imagination”?

Andrej Karpathy told Elon Musk that Tesla will grow from $45B to $1.5T using AI - while competitors spent billions doing it the old way

after this presentation Tesla's stock dropped 3.9%

Karpathy stood up and explained why every competitor will lose

"lidar is a crutch - it sidesteps the fundamental problem "

Musk: "every mile driven is training the network - whether autopilot is on or off "

simply because every single driver was training Tesla's model for free

that $45B company is now worth $1.5T

Waymo spent $27 billion. Tesla spent $0 on data collection

then Andrej left Tesla and joined Anthropic - to build their competitor

This makes me think dead internet theory is true and powerful LLMs have been most of the internet for a decade.

[lostbutlucky @lostbutlucky]

This is genuinely hilarious.

Some anonymous person on 4chan, responding to an anime watch order question, posted a proof that later turned out to be mathematically correct and significant.

- It was posted in under an hour after the question.

- The poster basically said, “please check for loopholes.”

- It sat mostly unnoticed for seven years.

- Later, actual mathematicians checked it and were like: yeah, this is legit.

- The formal paper literally lists the author as “Anonymous 4chan Poster.”

@dissproportion It’s really that “density of bacteria” is not a good measurement of dirty. It’s a stupid study by stupid people

[Doctor Umb @DoctorUmb]

People (AIs) will unironically post this shit and never rethink how they’re measuring “dirty”. You literally die from eating poop. You would survive a kitchen sponge.

[Anish Moonka @anishmoonka]

The research behind this is wild. Your kitchen sponge has the same density of bacteria as human stool. German scientists found 54 billion bacterial cells per cubic centimeter inside used sponges in 2017. Yours is sitting right next to your sink.

Sponges are the perfect home for bacteria. They are wet, warm, full of food bits, and never fully dry between washes. Across all 14 sponges, the team found 362 different types of bacteria. The most common species include strains that can make people sick.

In 2011, the public health group NSF International swabbed 30 things in 22 American homes. The dirtiest object in the entire house was the kitchen sponge. It was dirtier than the toilet seat. 75% of the sponges tested positive for the kind of bacteria that includes Salmonella and E. coli.

Microwaving does not clean the sponge. The 2017 study found microwaved sponges had higher amounts of the smelliest, most harmful bacteria. Heat kills the weak strains. The strong ones survive and refill the sponge with no competition for space.

A 2021 Norwegian study compared kitchen sponges to dish brushes. In brushes, Salmonella was wiped out within three days because the bristles dry out between uses. In sponges, bacteria climbed to about a billion cells per sponge. The lead researcher told CNN that one kitchen sponge can hold more bacteria than there are people on Earth.

Three things actually work. Switch to a dish brush, because brushes dry fully between uses while sponges stay wet for hours. Replace your sponge every one to two weeks. Never leave it sitting wet in the sink. Norway and Denmark already do this by default, but most other countries don't.

The detergent is fine. Your sponge is the problem.

#NYC #LandlordRights #HousingCrisis #SquatterCrisis

I’m a NYC landlord.

A tenant used fake financial documents and a bounced check to get into my property.

He has now lived there for 8 months — without paying a single dollar.

My losses are over $50,000 and still growing.

Police won’t act.
DA won’t act.
The system tells me: go to housing court and wait.

I followed the law. I hired a lawyer. I even gave him extra time to leave.

He’s still there.

Let me ask a simple question:

When someone uses fraud to take your property, why is it treated like a normal tenant dispute?

This system doesn’t protect honest people.

It punishes them.

NYC talks about a “housing crisis.”
But who would rent out their property under these conditions?

This is not just my story.

This is happening to small landlords across New York.

And nobody is fixing it.
