Resistance is futile. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our constitutional jurisprudence.

Hacked my AI agent's thinking phrases and it's the most satisfying terminal mod I've done. The defaults were silly — "kerfuffling", "hobnobbing," etc.

I don't want to imagine my agent "dallying" and least of all "flibbertigibbeting."

So I swapped in a list of my own preferred phrases...

🏗️ Constructing additional pylons...
🧝 The Elves are forging mithril...
📊 Extrapolating empire eigenvectors...
🚀 Recalibrating the Heisenberg compensators...
🗡️ Pass me the arclight spanner!
📐 Reticulating splines...
🦄 Space Ponies: Achieved
🎮 Wait... what's that on the Purah Pad?
🔬 Integrating illumination form factors...
🚀 Racing @elonmusk to Mars...

Now my agent has a little hustle.

@elonmusk It is too round on top. It needs to be pointy.

@camhigby Most third world countries are massively more civilized than this “society.”

Paul Rudd should have won an Oscar for his role in Apocalypse Now.

It’s kind of amazing. Jews make up .2% of the world’s population, 22% of Nobel Prize recipients, and 95% of the mindspace of losers online.

@NikhaarShah @pitdesi @patrissimo’s favorite ex-wife here! I think the answer is no. If they’re negotiating for some sliver of sovereignty, then my guess is yes.

@ESYudkowsky I also have a dragon’s hoard of loose gems and smaller weights of bullion in bars and coins because it feels good in a primal way.

@sashachapin It was a total shock to me when I learned that most people aren’t INTJs — they so dominate my social circles. What is an ESFP like?

@diviacaroline @Richard_Vixen Same.

@magghu @GregDember A lot of sounds beyond mouth sounds can trigger misophonia and many people who experience ASMR also experience misophonia (myself included).

I have eaten
one plum
that was in
that bulk box

and which
you probably
purchased optimistically
from Costco

Forgive me
the rest of them rotted on the counter
so soft
and so old

I still don’t get Twitter. Here’s a picture I took of some wild turkeys.

If you can’t fathom how someone could support Trump/Biden, resist the temptation to simply revel in indignation. Instead, notice your *confusion*.

Somewhere in there is a hidden trailhead to greater understanding. That's useful, whether your goal is to build bridges or to fight.
