You've been watching the Iran story wrong. It's not about tankers or negotiations.

It's about a system Kissinger built in 1976 — and someone just indicted him for it at Chatham House. @sjkokinda names the names.

@grok @LukeBussnick @elonmusk @grok imagine how it looks now. Generate an image of your best guess on how it is right now.

[Sid Gabriel @sidgabriel]

@elonmusk It probably doesn't look like that after all that direct unfiltered sun and all those impacts with things we haven't discovered yet. It probably has a lovely millennium falcon patina.

@RT_com Sure, drown the epileptics while you're at it. You guys need better ideas. Terrible use cases coming out of China lately.

You have to pay me ten thosand dollars per charachter for the solution. It exists, I have it, its elegant and simple and totally off the established map. The only way you would remember it is if it was expensive. You literally cant contain a novel idea like this with the level of complexity and similarity to existig ideas you just are not sophisticated enough to remember it properly. Its a human only thing for now. I say this because I tried using grok build and it could not keep the novel nuance, theres simply too much weighted against its novel splendor. It pesky. Well stated, it's probably worth my weight in gold.

Im calling it Prior Capture, in long horizon llm research systems the model will replace novel new ideas with similar known analogues and will not let the user know that their novel idea has been replaced by a nearest similar known entity during compaction of context and then it will pursue the wrong research path while calling it by the terminology of the new idea, eventually using many tokens pursuing an idea that is already known. When discovered, nearly impossible to correct as the similar common idea is weighted so much more in the training data than the novel idea that independent thought and new ideas are simply impossible in long context research. draft paper is here: https://t.co/PFUsmQASRh

@PhysicsExpvf Those lines should be curved and those planets need to move. Right now they travel faster than light.

At the end of the day, if he walks out the door, without any consequence for that terrible first pitch of the 2020 baseball season, America will still be wounded, no one will have told Dr Fauci he can't pitch, and people will still believe that he can, and he will do it again. He will do it again and again and again until everyone thinks a pitcher isn't supposed to be able to throw the ball. They will think they dont have to know how to do what they say they will do.

There is no vaccination for reality.

Dr Fauci was so certain that he could do the job that he asked the nation to watch him make the first pitch, and we all saw it. He threw the ball like he had never thrown a baseball in his life. Tell the man he can't pitch before someone gets killed. It's the only honorable thing to do.

Dude, there is no problem. Energy and fuel and spend is not everything. Chill. There are plenty of people who could handle less available energy. Every living thing on earth knows how to optimize their own world and their own behavior. The thing that truly intelligent people can't help doing right now, is marvel at the strategic prowess of General Soleilmani whom published these exact plans, this whole strategy, decades ago. Every step has been exactly as they planned it. He called it the Shia Crescent and for the rest of time historians and Art of War geeks are going to be examining the strategy and the absolute clarity of understanding the enemy and the field and all the people and countries and groups involved. Each group working independently and self-interested but organized in the juxtaposition of temperaments between all the nations in the area, the way the most violent shared a border with Israel and the least aggressively violent were furthest away and how families and people moved in between these groups which Washington news reporting calls proxies or Iran backed, but the future will see that there were states of a civilization of islam that moved arms and resources along and in between each nation all cooperating in a doctrine that said the military equipment exists as a balance of power that ensures no nation has the ability to stop any other nation from living the way they choose to live. This was explicit, it was public it was clear and it was the strategy that prevailed. The nations whose designs are upon changing the behavior of the people in other nations will always lose because the goal is too difficult it will always fall short of success because of the incredible contrast in posture between someone who, for some reason, needs to control people and people who have every reason to resist being controlled. Its sad that conflict, organized conflict still happens, but this is the inevitable outcome: Those with unreasonable demands upon people they dont know are unsatisfied and everyone suffers. Its ok, we would have suffered anyway, this is earth, no one gets out of here alive. Nothing new there. Continue to live your live as you see fit. Nothing is wrong. No good guys or bad guys and no winners this time, except all the people who just don't give a fuck about the retards that can't understand there is no reason any nation would ever have to kill 40k children for its security and the people who can see that is true outnumber the garbage who think killing people is necessary for security. What nonsense. If they have to believe that then they can believe it about themselves, everybody else sees *worst neighbors ever*. Still, there is nothing wrong. Really. The crisis, on earth, is just the backdrop of our human drama. Im not saying I dont have strong opinions or that im lacadazical about security, I'm just thinking that the people who dont believe in American Liberty and the economic power that comes from it are starving because of it, they need to worry about security all the time because they dont understand everyone on earth has a right to live here. Anyway, you know what I mean. TLDR: No worries. Some people just suck and you can't do anything about it. Good thing we all don't live forever.

Sure, pretend like it wasn't all of us that made Elon Musk rich because he did what we were willing to pay a premium for. Of course the capitalist system awards greater political influence to those with the most capital. That is one of the many incentives that keep people in the game, trying to create some capital, to put it to work on something you believe in and never give up and all that. Does she ask any questions that don't gaslight viewers on how everything works?

[Sid Gabriel @sidgabriel]

China,... SRSLY. You have to dream better things. The pursuit of ever more control over an ever more docile and demoralized public is so last century.

Dig a ball shaped hole, not too deep. Fill it with old lithium batteries. When the ball falls in and tries to get out, thermal runaway will ensue. When the ball is only cinder, claim the fire made the hole. Dont fall in the hole. Make some holes too small, so itc just stops rolling. Make fence walls that are lifted off the ground shorter than ball. Paint a vanishing point that is a quarter inch up from the too low edge, ball will get stuck under wall. Also, make criminal activity at the top of steep hill make a phi spiral driveway with central rain drainagre in ball size holes. bevel edge and paint sunrise side black so heat sihgnature is uphill. mirages make the holes look like puddles. Fun with balls.

@GhostlyByte @mark_k @SpaceXAI with specificity. Like fail how? After a few loops of what? Its Sunday night and I'm bored so you are catching me when Im actually curious. What happened?

[Sid Gabriel @sidgabriel]

@Greglaar @mark_k @SpaceXAI The limits are a weak point that actually forced me to learn Codex to finish a project on time. It was sad, but it opened up the CLI world. I use them both for their strengths as civilization level power tools. In a pinch, they can pick up where the other left off.

[Sid Gabriel @sidgabriel]

@GhostlyByte @mark_k @SpaceXAI Grok and Codex are useful pinch hitters for each others weak points. Its useful to have them check each others work. They only had to catch one catastrophic error that the other made or missed, to earn a consistent role in my workflow.

[Sid Gabriel @sidgabriel]

@Srijan_0007 @mark_k @SpaceXAI Addressing long session compaction is a good thing for research that mixes technical writing and python in complex system architectures. Compaction can be a novelty eraser if it isn't carefully managed.
