I feel this in my bones. Feeling the code push back is an invaluable sign that something isn’t right. When you do finally get it right, the excess code just melts away.

It’s a dance, and AI is a clumsy partner if that’s all you’ve got.

RETWEET if you stand with Stephen Colbert after Paramount/CBS fired him.

I wonder if we've been so numbed by fantastical sci-fi scenarios that this very real danger doesn't hit us as "realistic". We're moving full speed towards some kind of AI disaster scenario and we're so enjoying the ride that we don't want to pull the brake to check it's safe...

[Veritasium @veritasium]

What if an AI would blackmail you to stay alive? Anthropic threatened to shut down Claude, and it chose to let a human executive die rather than be turned off.

This wasn't a glitch. This was calculated self-preservation that no one programmed. 🧵

[Rutger Bregman @rcbregman]

Yes, this is fascism.

For years, historians and experts were cautious about using the f-word to describe today's events. But that hesitation is gone now. 🧵

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

This is one of the hardest but also one of the most important warnings from the history of Auschwitz coming for us today.

Perpetrators were in fact people who accepted and followed an ideology that made them believe that they were better than others, an ideology that rationalized and promoted hatred & evil. This became part of their everyday lives and their environment.

They were not monsters. They were people: fathers and mothers, husbands and wives, sons and daughters. They had their family joys and problems, their favorite desserts or songs, hobbies or fears. They were people like us. But they also perpetrated horrible things, monstrous things on behalf of the ideology they believed in. Dehumanization of all "others" was a tool that helped them achieve their goal.

The perpetrators thought of themselves as moral people. And this is the scary part of this history. We cannot dehumanize them, as their story and choices are our human warning.

Alexei Navalny was asked what his message would be to people if he was killed.

But they're BOTH so OLD! Gandalf can barely remember his passwords and even forgot that people called him Gandalf (yikes), while Saruman betrayed the Free Peoples of middle-earth and led an insurrection that stormed Helm's Deep. You can see how they're equally bad choices.

By the end of 2024, you’ll likely never need these APIs again:

• useMemo, useCallback, memo → React Compiler
• forwardRef → ref is a prop
• React.lazy → RSC, promise-as-child
• useContext → use(Context)
• throw promise → use(promise)
• <Context.Provider> → <Context>

A full list of these Ludacris demands:

6. Get back get back you don't know him like that
