@skcd42 @skcd42 Still blocked on Grok Build 24h+ after upgrade to HEAVY

Grok Build finds real issues Claude/Codex miss

No update since original post. Need fix + remediation for Heavy users.

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@skcd42 appreciate the effort, but it's still broken for me this morning

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@skcd42 @skcd42 have SuperGrok HEAVY bought last night and did this and still see usage remaining 0% until Jul31

grok logout

curl -fsSL "https://t.co/oeXqqf1zFe" | sh

Still with /usage show:
Monthly limit: 0%
Next reset: July 31, 16:00 PT

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@skcd42 tempted to cancel all of it and use anthropic/codex. this is pretty lame for adoption.

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@skcd42 um, i'm still screwed

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@skcd42 eta for the rollout? Should I call it a night?

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@skcd42 Same, was beginning to wonder if it was some kind of end-of-quarter HEAVY subscription drive.

[Eric Thayer @ehthayer]

@Sinric23 @grok Same thing is happening to me tonight. This isn't some end of quarter subscription drive is it?

Clint Eastwood Said Something About Getting Old That Stopped Me Cold.
Aging is not gentle.
You are still here. Still present. Still watching the world move. But the body that carried you through everything - the wars, the work, the wildness of youth - begins to ask for more than you can give it. Joints that never complained now speak up in the morning. Eyes that once took in everything now flinch at the light. Breathing, which never required a single thought, starts needing little pauses.
But none of that is the hardest part.
The hardest part is the quiet.
At a certain age, you reach for the phone and remember there is no one left to call.
The people who knew you when you were young - who remembered the same summers, the same streets, the same faces
- are gone. One by one, then all at once, until the memories you carry have no one left to share them with.
So you tell the stories anyway.
To whoever will listen. With a little more color than perhaps the truth deserves. With a touch of pride you've earned and a grief you don't always name. You know the person across from you wasn't there. You know they can't quite feel it the way you do.
But you tell them. Because the telling is the holding on.
Those stories are not just memories. They are the proof that a life was lived. That people were loved. That things mattered.
And if no one asks for them - you offer them anyway, quietly, like setting something down on a table and hoping someone picks it up.
Old age is not simply what happens to a face or a body.
It is memory looking for a place to rest.
And what an older person needs - more than advice, more than solutions, more than someone telling them how to feel - is simply someone willing to sit down, be still, and listen.
Not to fix anything.
Just to be there.
That is the whole gift. And it costs nothing.

@EthicalSkeptic (Drafted with helpful input from Grok AI for clarity and public-data suggestions; if it wasn't obvious to you already!)

Your DFT/phased-signal approach is a smart systems-engineering way to flag anomalies faster than crude annual per-capita rates — the Vioxx precedent shows why early signals matter. The 2021 inflection in non-COVID natural-cause infant/toddler deaths is worth rigorous scrutiny.

To make the causal inferences (especially maternal pre-pregnancy mRNA exposure) even stronger with public data:

1. Incorporate CDC WONDER Linked Birth/Infant Death files (now available 2017–2024 period-linked on WONDER plus downloadable via NVSS). They link every infant death to its birth certificate with rich maternal covariates: prenatal care adequacy/timing, education, race/ethnicity, smoking, gestational age, plurality, etc. This lets you run adjusted interrupted time-series or regression models to control for known confounders (for example post-Dobbs prenatal care drops and changing birth demographics). No vax status, but far better than pure ecological timing.

2. Release your exact WONDER queries plus DFT code (baseline fitting, rolling averages, sigma calc). Full reproducibility would let others replicate/test and build on it.

3. Benchmark uptake with PRAMS (public aggregate tables plus research files) — it has self-reported maternal COVID vax data by cohort/demographics for 2020–2022 to validate the “post-rollout = high exposure” proxy.

These steps turn the signal into a more defensible hypothesis that can withstand scrutiny with 100% public data.

@LauraLoomer Here we go. We're all shut-in for the mid terms so they can flood the ballot boxes with fake votes.

I have no problem with Islam. I’m just against beheading, stoning, marrying little girls, sexual slavery, taqiyya, slave trading, rape, forced conversions, jihad, burqa, attacking other religions, child abuse, women abuse, animal abuse, multiple wives, murder, Sharia, terrorism, brainwashing, intolerance, greed, anti-science, torture, illiteracy, gluttony, genital mutilation, inbreeding. Does that make me Islamophobic?

@xai last time i went with SuperGrok Heavy i realized it wasn't up to things as much as claude/codex. i'm sitting on the sidelines and let other people pay X to gather training data.

An enormous white fibrous amyloid clot is removed from a man’s jugular vein. These clots were not seen prior to COVID.

[Valerie Anne Smith @ValerieAnne1970]

Sen. Ron Johnson: “This is a PROFOUND revelation… The US FDA now admits COVID-19 vaccines KILLED American children.”

Healthy kids — virtually ZERO risk from COVID — were FORCED by Biden mandates into lethal shots.

Leaked FDA memo on child deaths: regulators confess their actions “we have harmed more children than we saved.”

They KNEW the risks. They HID the signals. They MANDATED the deaths anyway.

Mass murder by mandate. Where is the justice?

@HansMahncke Looks like @CFWBers work and others may be coming to fruition. Thankful for all the tireless work. Let's press on to justice so we can be rid of this blight of oppressive corruption!
