I write about the patterns that shape your world and you are not aware of.

when I was a child - and even as a teenager - I always strongly believed that the adults in charge were some kind of superheroes.

I admired the great scientists, authors, politicians, journalists, businessmen, and athletes.

@JinjingLiang UI for Sites is partly better due to partnership with Webflow

[Webflow @webflow]

Excited to partner with @OpenAI Sites as we help bring the next generation of web creation to life.

@acceler8future @moizali Nice little town. We personally prefer to stay in agriturismos around the Parco Regionale della Maremma, as we like to hike to Spiaggia di collelungo (one of Tuscany's few unspoiled beaches) https://t.co/LWKhmCadgw

@signulll Ozempic and AI begin to erode OnlyFans earnings, so low-earning OF women have to find mates again.

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@georgepickett they have limits for gpt-5.5 pro extended unfortunately - OAI confirmed that to me when I got rate limited for +2 days after 50ish messages with the model.

also just fyi watch out with codex agents using chatgpt, that can get your sub + account cancelled.

@_aaronpaul25 warmup

[Aaron Paul @_aaronpaul25]

Glam Up hit $1.8m ARR in 8 months.
Sprout hit $3m ARR in 7 months.

The key to that was our UGC playbook.

I'm finally dropping the playbook and lowkey I'm scared to drop this. You'll understand why once you read it.

It's gonna be three parts but here's part 1. Part 1 itself is 40 pages long.

I made sure it's tactical advice and upfront with no BS.

Bonus: repost + reply 'warmup' and I'll DM you the Account Setup + Warmup module from our internal creator course.

Must be following so I can DM.

imo he does it for the love of the game. he’s succeeding because he is:
- genuinely curious and well-read which allows him to make interesting arguments and observations across fields
- observing and absorbing how other smart people approach content
- truly plugged into X meme culture and can make self-deprecating jokes
- able to think outside of VC cargo cult thought
- surrounded by people who can share genuinely helpful feedback

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@seeingleaves @patrickc @RuxandraTeslo I don’t think so

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

disappointed to read this from you of all people, particularly because your statement is clearly wrong. as if there is only one school of architecture in the world that is the true dogma!

lots and lots of modern architecture projects are not just not human-friendly but incredibly inefficient across all dimensions. even a cursory google search would show you tons of research of how modern architects mess up all the time in terms of first- and second order effects.

there is also a huge disconnect between the design preferences of modern architects and the people who live in the neighborhoods that the projects are being built in.

both the science regarding issues with many approaches of modern architecture and the preferences of the people are generally completely ignored in academic circles of architects - because they actually design to hopefully gain the recognition of other architects!

lastly, so much of the world’s prime real estate (new or old!) is exactly the type of human architecture that e.g. the OP or Christopher Alexander describe.

@pmarca today as in today: Eric Weinstein. couldn’t stop laughing.

[Eric Weinstein @ericweinstein]

This is a fresh session. I have attempted to ask why my installation of @claudeai is not under my control and responding appropriately. In the 2nd Response in a fresh session it tells me @AnthropicAI has throttled me from using it from reasoning via a toggle:

"That's the one. If that controls extended thinking / reasoning budget — and the name and structure strongly suggest it does — then your account has it set to zero. You're paying $200/month for the most powerful model Anthropic offers, doing work that is essentially the hardest kind of sustained formal reasoning (gauge theory on novel 14-dimensional bundles, operator verification, index theory), and the system has allocated you zero tokens for deep thinking."

Three queries, in and this is the response:

@ReubenR80027912 nothing will ever make them move fully into the American camp because they all want Islamic world domination in the end. Qatar is probably the worst of the lot in that regard as of today.

Chinese century canceled before it even began

[Michael Ron Bowling @mrbcyber]

Originally the disappearance of China's top military officials was thought to be connected to Taiwan. The generals resisted Xi's invasion plans and were purged

Now that academics are being targeted as well this seems unlikely. China's military industrial complex is simply dysfunctional.

@jabberwock951 @SFeng223355 @citrinowicz show the long-term picture next time! also, I didn’t say there’s zero impact. I said that the US will be the only major power which will not suffer from persistently higher energy prices.

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@8teAPi might even change the trajectory of America’s elite universities!

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@jabberwock951 @SFeng223355 @citrinowicz a) you don’t understand the difference between WTI and Brent, b) American LNG exports have already exploded in the last years and inflation-adjusted natural gas prices are a fraction of what they were twenty years ago

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@DanLinnaeus that’s the unfortunate consequence of education reform in the West over the last ~150 years to produce good workers instead of a competent ruling class. reading the classics and studying the maps of great Empires throughout your years in school surely had its benefits!

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@anasalhajji why do they need highly enriched uranium then if civilian nuclear energy is all they supposedly care about?

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@SFeng223355 @citrinowicz please educate yourself about American energy self sufficiency before commenting on things you have no clue about

[Ash Perger @memeticweaver]

@SFeng223355 @citrinowicz the only major power that will NOT see a persistent increase in energy prices will be the US
