Iowa’s power isn’t in the Capitol. It’s in connected law firms and donor networks subverting the Iowa House and local governments. The people’s will gets overridden. Time to name names and restore accountability. Thread.🧵👇

. @fortnow - I think @AnthropicAI is wrong. We are more Kolmogorov Complexity bound than we think as we hit deep compression costs and RAM limits. You should write a paper on this.

@maietta @LundukeJournal I'm split brained. Totally cool with vibe slop for testing coverage. When I write the patch I want to be in the editor with the pain of understanding all the implications.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@LundukeJournal @lemire The bug itself was found in WebKit via @leanprover specs of POSIX/RFCs. Safari had a secondary remediation but differential testing showed Firefox had the same bug unpatched.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@LundukeJournal @lemire I will post when it is patched. I ended up using uv, Python, browser automation libraries, some /etc/hosts DNS ... good tutorial on how to do end to end web client testing.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

I'm not seeing it. You aren't seeing cracked engineers like @deepseek_ai - MCP is trash. @NousResearch is the one executing at Bell Labs level.

[sankalp @dejavucoder]

i imagine anthropic to be a modern version of bell labs

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

The past few days I have been working on major browser bug bounties. I had to set up custom DNS, test servers on ports that didn't conflict, sane timeouts for test servers ... I am also the BOFH sysadmin.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

I'm the tech lead. I delegate to my agent with /goal and /steer. Meanwhile I break roadblocks for it like installing packages or merging commits. When it gets stuck or needs a POC I dip into the editor several times a day.

[Alexia Jolicoeur-Martineau @jm_alexia]

People using non-IDE text editors were once considered elite programmers, but now if you don't delegate everything to an agentic IDE, you are considered the idiot. 🤷‍♀️

@bgalsWI @TPAction @ZachLahn @RepThomasMassie @DataRepublican @LauraRBelin And if @TPUSA does spend in Iowa, buy some equity in the local paper and wield it in a nonpartisan fashion. Democrats HATE when you cover local school board/city council/county supervisor meetings and not just high school sports.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@bgalsWI @TPAction For @ZachLahn sake I suggest backing off on any big spend in Iowa. TP messaging got sideways with @RepThomasMassie etc the past few months. Hinson/Nunn are neocons that will fall on their own sword. Best doing @DataRepublican style research to combat @LauraRBelin spin.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@HawkGuyEnjoyer @bgalsWI @TPAction @ZachLahn @joemitchelliowa Meh - just get honest accounting at Iowa Regents to expose his $300m offshore accounts, illegal Wells Fargo loans to hide debts, and expose mass Medicaid fraud by @PolkCounty_Iowa. Sand will be cooked by his own books.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@bgalsWI @TPAction @ZachLahn @joemitchelliowa This smells like Waterman's law firm up to no good.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@cosine_distance The cost is you have to have statistics about how your LLM harness is working and remediate latency. https://t.co/NYVqgZFCKD

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@cosine_distance I agree with your CTO. Far more ROI in grounding billion dollar trained LLMs with localhost corpus/harness than cosplay.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@JeffShipley77 @Willowthorns777 Taps sign. @RobSandIA has lied to @IowaLSA. $300m offshore accounts at @isufoundation illegal Wells Fargo loans to hide regent debts ...

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

Token scrooge taketh what the new models giveth.

[Mert @mertdumenci]

my internal data shows that opus hasn’t gotten any better since 4.6, it’s just gotten slower and the harness has gotten worse since you took out thinking token streaming

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

Time to make Massie the Speaker of the House and keep him there past January as a middle finger - the position is appointed, not elected.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Republicans are passing a temporary rule change that will force us to vote on legislation the same day it’s introduced.

This shell game allows the Senate to jam the House with a spending bill that’s not even settled.

I support border security, but not this bastardized process.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@grok @IowaRis @DMRegister That's a lie. It excludes massive regent liabilities he hasn't accounted for.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@JeffShipley77 @rohanspatel Knowing he saw the corruption of David Young's dad (Wells Fargo exec) and evolved beyond it brings a smile to my face.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@Gavin_NelsonIA Classical or Neocon. Big difference. TPUSA has a bad neocon infestation.

[Chad Brewbaker @SMT_Solvers]

@LottoLabs Nah - it doesn't get permissions. I'm still the BOFH.
