On the one-year anniversary of EMPIRE OF AI, I am so, so excited to announce The AI Resist List, a new project that documents examples of resistance to the AI empires around the world.

@mitsuhiko About 400 of them in Norway, too. Are there still thousands of unsold ones, or are they on the road in Austria?

The last month, Anthropic:

- Quietly nerfed their flagship model harness (Claude Code) without telling anyone

- Banned corporate customers of Claude

- Silently changed plans for customers with certain files in their repo

All evidence that closed models are *massive* risks.

Dario demonstrating that he doesn't understand software engineering. The human side of what we do has always been the heart. I can empathize with *wanting* to never talk to an engineer ever again, but engineering becomes more important with better tools.

@tommithetechie I love the documentary about it https://t.co/Cigz6U496U

This piece on Palantir death-tech and the kill chain is breathtakingly good https://t.co/2Z6mnLQumK

I don't get how people are planning to sidestep the very basic problem that if you don't have junior hires right now, you won't have experienced people 5 or 10 years later.

@TailosiveTech The casing was strong polycarbonate, but the palm rest was not and usually cracked over time. Apart from that, it was really good.

If you can imagine it, you must also consider if you should build it.

[André Heie Vik @andrev]

@BrightMinho Well of course it does, it runs fine on a 8 GB M1 Air.

Idea: a bar called The Situation Room. Like a sports bar but for politics. Cable news and live feeds on the screens instead of football. Atlases and copies of Jane’s Defence Weekly on every table. Multiple sets of Risk and Diplomacy behind the bar.

[Grady Booch @Grady_Booch]

I reject your assertion.

The entire field of software engineering evolved under the fundamental constraint of the human ability to manage complexity.

[Guido van Rossum @gvanrossum]

@simonw @rahulj51 And how do we raise more experienced software engineers???

@marenostbo I Bergen går man både nyttårsbukk og Halloween.

[André Heie Vik @andrev]

@Torkil Har flere ganger opplevd at Bergenstoget kommer 15-20 min etter oppsatt avgangstid.

@jenskihl Husker NSB hadde et spesialbrygget øl fra Haandbryggeriet, Dresin Pale Ale.

@slutreplik Denne er bedre enn Apple sin lader til 4x prisen. Og grundig testet!

[Søren Kjærsgaard  @oz1lqo]

Som lovet - en test af #IKEA SJÖSS laderen 🙂 Det er en 45W USB-C lader med PD (power detect), så der kommer ikke noget ud af den med mindre man spørger pænt 👌🏻 Jeg har grej til at snakke med den og den holder hvad de skriver i manualen 👍🏼 45W på ét output, 2x22 på to.

[André Heie Vik @andrev]

@TheCarGuru I love that they call it the viewing suite 😂

[André Heie Vik @andrev]

@ChrSorgjerd Ja, det har jeg også lagt merke til. Ellers et veldig smart opplegg både for selger og kjøper.
