Is it just me? People talk about EVs and all these brands. Blah, blah. For me, I just want FSD or autonomous driving. I couldn't care less if it were hybrid, gas, or diesel. Among EV companies, the reason @Tesla makes me happy is FSD. Nothing else really matters to me and those I know.

@DrKnowItAll16 @Tesla I recently saw this on my brothers tesla, I didn't see a way to prevent it from going over speed limit. This is a feature I want. I never speed, and I wouldnt want my "driver" ever speeding. EXCEPTION: to avoid collision/danger

@MichaelDell @CaitlinLong_ @Dell What a journey! Thanks for sharing.

JUST IN: American Heart Association reveals drinking up to five cups of coffee per day may lower the risk of stroke, heart failure & type 2 diabetes.

I have some skills that plan first, continually outputs lessons learned, and finalizes with a full push, write up and session capture to include tools used, code run, stage in plan. All to my local obsidian vault/gitea repo. Completely portable, this allows me to pick up with any harness from anywhere.

[Bryan @bassntx]

This exactly.

⚡️This is China answering Bessent in real time.

America is trying to concentrate compute.

China is trying to commoditize intelligence.

That is the strategic split.

The United States is building an AI empire around controlled access, capital intensity, proprietary models, hyperscale infrastructure, and ownership of the physical stack.

China is building an insurgent architecture around open weights, rapid diffusion, lower-cost deployment, and global replication.

Qwen 3.8 matters because open weights turn a model into industrial seed stock. Once released, it can be copied, fine-tuned, localized, distilled, embedded, and deployed across thousands of firms and states beyond Alibaba’s direct control.

That creates a different kind of power.

Closed models centralize capability.

Open weights distribute capability.

America wants the toll road.

China wants the road everywhere.

The deeper contest is no longer only who has the strongest model. It is who defines the default intelligence layer for the rest of the world.

If Qwen becomes good enough, cheap enough, and open enough, much of the world will choose access over allegiance. Emerging markets, smaller companies, sovereign agencies, universities, and developers do not need ideological alignment. They need capable intelligence they can afford and control.

That is China’s opening.

America may dominate frontier compute while China dominates intelligence diffusion.

One side could own the summit.

The other could own the terrain.

The most dangerous outcome for the United States is not China surpassing the best American model outright.

It is Chinese open models becoming the Linux of machine intelligence while American systems remain expensive, gated, and politically conditional.

Then America owns the crown.

China owns the replication layer.

And over time, replication can matter more than prestige.

Good morning @jvisserlabs heard your comments about @Kimi_Moonshot you can use it in the cloud the same way, direct from them or via @OpenRouter you just need a few bucks and harness or have Claude write you a harness. Love what you and @APompliano are doing! TY for all the info.

[Bryan @bassntx]

@vxunderground Great stuff! Enjoy it, it goes fast.

[Bryan @bassntx]

Beautiful!!

Lake level check. Medina Lake now seeing big increases. Canyon Lake seeing a big surge of water just now coming in. Choke and Lake CC will need to wait as massive water will take many days to reach them but they'll see big increases

@alt_w_v_g B, i feel it allows "me" to explore versus reading an ad.

@Polymarket Weird, sounds like old cable..

Sir, if we pull Fable out of the subscription, our next best model is Opus 4.8 and even Grok beats that now, let alone GPT Sol.

we'd be charging $200/month for third place.

[Bryan @bassntx]

Holding back models, delaying models, and corrupting innovation will ensure open source and China win the AI race. Incentives to produce the best for capitalistic gain now have none. I think we're seeing the last of US companies leading the AI race. They've lost incentive.

Hey @MicrosoftTeams @Microsoft365 please add a small audible “ding” when someone raises their hand in a meeting — the yellow icon alone is way too easy to miss when you’re presenting or talking. Visual cues don’t work if no one’s looking at the screen. 🔔🙋 #MicrosoftTeams #MSTeamsFeedback

@AbeyAkecheta @_The_Prophet__ I think this is true. And if they don't, it's likely less than 6 months away.

A student once described their ADHD writing style like this:

“My thoughts don’t arrive one at a time. They arrive like a group chat where everyone is typing at once, and I have to decide which message to respond to before the rest disappear.”

So while writing an essay, the main argument isn’t the only thing happening. There’s the main point, then five related ideas trying to jump in, plus three examples, two counterarguments, and a sudden unrelated insight that still somehow feels important. Nothing feels “off-topic” in the moment- just competing levels of relevance.

Parentheses become a kind of safety mechanism. Not for decoration, but for survival. A way to say: this matters too, just not right now. Dashes, brackets, and asides aren’t stylistic choices so much as cognitive overflow valves.

What looks like disorganized writing is often just real-time thought management- trying to force a multi-threaded mind into a single-threaded format without losing anything that feels meaningful.
