Today I deadlifted 500 lbs, my biggest goal for 4+ years now after a lot of hard work. Stick to your goals and achieve them, it’s worth it.

@FischerKing64 @L0m3z From what I saw, humans couldn’t even learn much from it, there’s nothing to really study. There’s just no way to emulate that.

@FischerKing64 @L0m3z The chess AlphaZero played was totally different from anything anyone had seen before. It sacrificed piece after piece, with no obvious way to consolidate an advantage ahead… fast forward a dozen moves and suddenly it’s winning as if the whole plan was obvious all along.

Imagine texting your plug and he says “meet me there at 8/7 central”

@Cernovich @FischerKing64 That is a “life imitates art” moment lol. How perfect is that

@reddit_lies That little chart at the bottom mistakenly puts “endorsement potential” on the x axis instead of the y axis, meaning it’s going up over time, not down 🤓

But yeah, it looks like recent events have given them a reality check about hockey after the Heated Rivalry craze

This is the McCullough biography. John Adams was a classic 'smart but ADHD' type. He hated this about himself and strove to overcome it.

Franklin noted him 'always honest, often wise...sometimes "absolutely out of his senses"'

and per War Secretary McHenry: 'actually insane'

@ivan_bezdomny @Cernovich @grok AI struggles with words/math/numbers when generating images. You’d be better off asking for a written timeline

@weheartseattle On his way to go trim some hedges!

@alxfazio I don’t get it, he means like a ghostwriter but for coding? Because that’s just a coder

@Cernovich does anyone have the original post

@TakeTakeTakeApp Rb6+ f6 Ra6 Kg7 Ra7+ Kh6 Rf7 and zugzwang? How close am I

[Brendan Gregory @jrcolonial98]

@vagrantwires To me, this idea only works if you can see the total number of likes and dislikes both (like how YouTube used to do it). With upvote/downvote system you can’t gauge how much actual interaction a post got.

@BrownBrandon503 @Cernovich True, I’m missing the context of your original question from the clip.

My point is that Peterson is calling out the power obsession stuff and calling it narcissistic, and people respond by saying he’s power obsessed and narcissistic, and I don’t see that.

@FischerKing64 This needs to go in a museum

[Brendan Gregory @jrcolonial98]

@FischerKing64 Like Norm Macdonald would say, that guy sounds like a real jerk.

This is one of the software engineers working with Elon Musk on DOGE to reduce our country's excessive spending problem.

Unfathomably based
