Underrated life advice: Become difficult to rush. The world will pressure you to rush into everything. Rushed decisions. Rushed relationships. Rushed conversations. Rushed timelines. There's power in rejecting that trend. Pause. Slow down. Create space to think clearly.

@Laganish Hottest take: Both moves, one defined a source and another branching, will usher in extrapolating even more ideas, specializations being next. All they have to do is add a few abilities, tune a few talents/animations, and bam; you got devourer w/ hero talents cycling back in.

Just today I've already seen Wispr Flow, Granola and WHOOP all "reverse engineered" and open sourced with a fully free version

Very interesting to see what's happening

The question is if normies will pick up on this (I think they will) and how companies will react and pivot to still make money

Took me all but 5 minutes to start a repo, hook threeJS, and get a working visual on my browser with Vite

The longest snag was loading project files with outdated software and having to update node/nvm to play nicely with Vite 😭

But maybe some 23 y/o intern went to 7-Eleven and realized how hard it went. Maybe we'll get this next:

It feels like people are living at different spots in the timeline.

Im interviewing a bunch of people for open roles at ridge.

- 50% of people STILL havent used ai for more than a google search replacement.

- 20% Some people are running their lives in it, but haven't downloaded a harness- browser only

- A small group are fully loaded.
Ai agents for everything. automating everything.

And then you read the comments on instagram, and 20% of people want to burn down data centers like it's Frankenstein

The future is here.
Just depends on where you are on the timeline.

I think within 2 years, using a browser on desktop will be optional and clunky.

The harness is the new window to the world.

Desktop computers with local software got replaced by the internet and the cloud.

Now, webapps will just be database layers for agents.

Why would I log into notion and click buttons?
Agents will just do it.

Why would I sort through my email and look for important stuff?
Agents will do it.

Why would I make a google doc and share it?
Agents will do it.

This might be a big DUH to everyone reading this.

But Im telling you-
to 95% of people this sounds like gibberish.

They are at a different spot on the timeline.

The level of change management coming to orgs will be as big as the internet was.

The future is here; it's just not evenly distributed.

@businessbarista It’s not or; it’ll be both and it’s the latter that will fundamentally change what it means for humans to catalyze thought into reality. Right now we’re still building in 2D.

Multiply every point on a circle by a constant, wrap it mod N, and connect the dots.

That's it. No artist, no design — just x → (x·m) mod N.

The mandalas fall out of the arithmetic for free. Times tables were hiding cathedrals this whole time.

@prolific2u @ANOINTEDCHIEF And yet there is glimmer in your eyes when you see her stand up for herself in a situation that didn’t need your ‘masculine’ strength; like noticing and willfully correcting an incorrect receipt.

No inferior gender.. just inferior totality ‘thinking’.

@SovereignIM @TellYourSonThis Yes, but without saying it to one another; following the intrinsic force to help one another understand the world and themselves, to themselves, like a mirror that spirals upward, ever fusing and dancing whole, akin to laces on a shoe. You are the reflection of yours.

After a long wait, we are finally ready to reveal our complete space humanoid HELIOS.

After two semesters of intense work, research and iteration, this is what we have to show.

Je ne pense pas qu'on réalise le tsunami qui arrive.

Ce que vous voyez là, ce n'est pas une démo de plus. C'est le premier domino d'une cascade qui va redéfinir ce que ça veut dire être humain au 21e siècle.

Pendant 200 ans, la révolution industrielle a automatisé la force brute. Mais la dextérité fine, le geste précis, l'adaptation à un environnement non standardisé, c'est resté la chasse gardée de l'humain. Casser un œuf. Plier une chemise. Réparer une fuite. Ce mur vient de tomber.

Étape 1 : les robots humanoïdes commencent vraiment à marcher. Pas des prototypes de salon, des machines qui exécutent des tâches manuelles complexes en autonomie, à vitesse réelle, avec un seul modèle pour tout. Le hardware suit la loi de Wright. Comptez 5 ans pour passer de 100K€ à 15K€ l'unité.

Étape 2 : toutes les tâches manuelles non créatives vont être automatisées. Cuisiner, nettoyer, ranger, jardiner, livrer, soigner, construire. Pas "certaines" tâches. La quasi-totalité du travail manuel répétitif que l'humanité produit depuis qu'elle est sortie de la savane.

Étape 3 : tout le monde aura un service 3 étoiles chez soi. Aujourd'hui, avoir un chef privé, un majordome, un kiné à domicile, c'est réservé à 0,01% de la population mondiale. Demain, c'est le standard. Le luxe va se démocratiser à une vitesse jamais vue dans l'histoire.

Étape 4 : la société va se réorganiser entièrement autour des robots. L'urbanisme, le droit, la fiscalité, l'éducation. Tout est designé autour d'une contrainte qui disparaît : la rareté du travail humain. Comparable en ampleur à l'arrivée de l'électricité, sauf que ça prendra 20 ans, pas 80.

Étape 5 : la place de l'humain est à retrouver. Si une machine cuisine mieux, soigne mieux, code mieux, à quoi ça sert d'être humain ? La réponse n'est pas dans la productivité. Elle est dans l'expérience subjective, la création de sens, le lien, le jeu, le risque, la transmission.

Étape 6 : abondance totale de biens et de services. Le coût marginal de produire un repas, un vêtement, un logement, un soin tend vers zéro. Marx pensait que c'était la révolution prolétarienne qui apporterait l'abondance. Erreur. C'est le capitalisme et la technologie qui le font.

Étape 7 : on réalise que la vie est un énorme jeu. Toutes les civilisations qui ont atteint un seuil d'abondance ont basculé vers la culture, le sport, la philosophie, l'art. Sauf que cette fois, ce n'est pas 0,1% de la population qui accède au jeu. C'est 100% des 10 milliards d'humains.

Étape 8 : le but devient de coloniser l'intégralité du cosmos. Une espèce qui a résolu sa subsistance et qui dispose de robots autonomes ne reste pas confinée à une bille bleue. Mars dans 15 ans. La ceinture d'astéroïdes dans 30. Les lunes de Jupiter dans 50. L'univers observable contient 2 trillions de galaxies. C'est notre terrain de jeu.

Le 20e siècle nous a appris à craindre la technologie. Le 21e va nous apprendre à la chérir. Parce que c'est elle, et elle seule, qui nous sort de la condition de primates obligés de travailler 40h par semaine pour ne pas mourir de faim.

Les luddites ont toujours perdu. Ils perdront encore. Et heureusement.

L'humanité n'a jamais été aussi proche de devenir ce qu'elle est censée être : une espèce de joueurs, d'explorateurs, de créateurs, libérée de la nécessité, partie à la conquête des étoiles.

Le tsunami arrive. Ne le subissez pas. Surfez-le.

Remember the harrowing China Eastern Airlines crash that saw the jet nosedive almost vertically into the mountainside?

According to a new NTSB report, the fuel control switches for both engines were moved (almost simultaneously) from "run" to "cutoff." Engine speeds dropped, the autopilot was disengaged, and the plane entered a steep dive and inverted roll. The switches cannot be moved accidentally on a 737 - they require deliberate action. No restart attempts were recorded.

This fact has only just come to light via an NTSB response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed by a Chinese citizen.

It strongly suggests deliberate cockpit action, which is strikingly similar to what happened with the Air India Flight 171 crash last year where one passenger miraculously survived the burning wreck.

The incidents occurred a few years apart involving different aircraft types (737 vs. 787 Dreamliner), but both appear to be caused by pilot action.

The key comparison here though is how China Eastern/Chinese authorities versus Air India/Indian authorities handled public communication, investigation updates, and disclosures.

How China 🇨🇳 handled it:

The Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) issued only a very brief preliminary report in April 2022 with scant details. No meaningful updates followed. China failed to release required annual progress reports (per ICAO Annex 13 standards) on the 3rd and 4th anniversaries (2025 and 2026).

When asked for information, the CAAC cited risks to "national security and social stability" as the reason for withholding reports. No final report has been issued even >4 years later. The cockpit voice recorder data was handed over to China; the US NTSB did not retain copies.

How India 🇮🇳 handled it:

India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) released a preliminary factual report on July 12, 2025 (within ~30 days), detailing the switch movements, FDR/CVR data summary, and sequence of events.

This was the first time India performed full black-box analysis domestically. The report was shared publicly and with international parties (NTSB, Boeing). The investigation followed ICAO Annex 13 rules with accredited representatives from the U.S. and manufacturer.

As of early 2026, the AAIB stated the probe is ongoing (not finalized), with the final report expected "very soon" or within 2026. Indian courts criticized the aviation authorities for "irresponsible" early media leaks suggesting pilot error and for selective/piecemeal information release.

Families have demanded full black-box data and more accountability. However, the preliminary report was public and detailed, and the process involved international oversight.

India and Air India were significantly more transparent than the Chinese. The Indian authorities released a substantive preliminary report quickly, followed ICAO norms more closely, involved international experts, and faced domestic accountability mechanisms (courts, media, families).

China’s approach - years of silence, skipped reports, and reliance on external FOIA for key data - is a massive cover-up.

It's really not unlike how they handled covid so please don't tell me how they are responsible global actors.

It's basically the same pattern - limited transparency, delayed or withheld information, and prioritization of "stability" or control over full public and international disclosures.
