@isitwokeornot If a man explains what a woman is saying, they call it “mansplaining.”

But they erase men’s contributions from the historical record, which is a thousand times worse.

In the Chernobyl miniseries, they even invented a woman to save all the men who were made to look like idiots.

Tesla Semi entirely replaces traditional hydraulic power steering with fully electric steering assist, eliminating the hydraulic pump, steering fluid, reservoir and associated hoses that add weight, noise, leak points and maintenance

That makes the system lighter, quieter and more precise, while also building in redundancy and laying important groundwork for future autonomy

Tesla didn’t just replace the diesel engine with batteries

It redesigned the heavy-duty truck from first principles

[Mr. William C. Michael, OP @wcmclaa]

Protestants ask, "Where in the Bible are we told to pray to saints in heaven?"

This question is irrational. The period of time narrated in the Bible covers the life of Jesus and the Apostles. There were no saints in heaven until after the Ascension of Christ, so we should not expect men to to be led in prayer to saints by Jesus while He was alive.

Second, the Apostles were the first saints, given miraculous powers on earth, and men sought them directly for assistance, on earth.

The rational question would be, "After the death of the Apostles, did Christians continue seeking the assistance of the Apostles?"

The answer to this question is YES, and we have evidence of this in the Catacombs, where prayers to Peter and Paul are carved into the walls.

Protestants apparently believe the early Christians were all idolaters who practiced necromancy. The reality is that Protestants invented their own religion in the 16th century which has nothing to do with real Christianity.

[T.E. Jentzen @Faithful2Pray]

Claim: “The Catholic Church used to keep the Bible from ordinary people!😡”

Truth: In the Middle Ages, Catholic monks spent up to three years copying a single Bible entirely by hand.
Because of the immense labor and rare materials, one Bible cost the modern equivalent of a large estate. When these priceless books were placed in local parishes, the priests did something that critics still attack them for today: they chained the Bibles to the wooden pulpits. For centuries, a popular myth has claimed the Catholic Church did this to hide the Word of God and keep it from the masses. The historical truth is the exact opposite.
They were chained down so they wouldn't be stolen by thieves. Long before public libraries existed, the Church chained the Bible in the open so anyone could walk in and read it for free.

The NGOs end up increasing the number of homeless people they manage, because that’s the only way to increase their revenue! Incentives drive outcomes.

“Homeless” is a propaganda word used to describe people on the street who are mentally ill or severely addicted to drugs. The word implies that this is someone who fell a little behind on their mortgage payment and they’re one job offer away from getting back on their feet, which is obviously false if you’ve ever tried talking to a “homeless” person in SF, LA, NY, Austin or anywhere else.

The honest reality is that we need to bring back asylums for extreme mental illness or drug addiction for those who are a serious danger to themselves or others.

It's getting WORSE for Sony.

There's a new application that essentially takes a PS5 game, and makes it run 'natively' on PC.

API calls will get converted to VULKAN, and this means there's no emulation exactly.

It is still VERY early, but it's pretty damn cool stuff.

[Bishop @BishopJaxi]

Every appeal to Scripture is an appeal to an interpretation of Scripture.

For the Catholic, Scripture is read within the Church that received it, preserved it, canonized it, preached it, and handed it down.

For the Protestant, the final authority on what Scripture means is ultimately his own interpretation.

That’s why you can ask 10 Protestants what the essentials of the Christian faith are according to the Bible and get 10 different answers.

Likewise, this is why after 500 years of "Scripture alone" you have constant schisms, division, and thousands of denominations and counting.

Because in Protestantism, the individual ultimately becomes the highest authority, and what counts as "faithful to Scripture" is determined by the individual’s own interpretation, with no higher earthly authority capable of correcting him and definitively settling disputes.

Jev 发布没几天，开源社区已经开始疯狂复刻了🔥

最值得推荐的五个模型：

1、Laya 421M：原生决策模型，支持 Mac

2、Decider-2B：最像 Jev，基于 Qwen3.5

3、NanoJev 0.6B：专门的 Decision Head

4、Reflex：Qwen3.5 + Direct Logits

5、System-One 4B：专门做概率校准

如果和我一样是苹果的芯片，我推荐： Laya 和 Reflex

下一步我准备选两个在本地运行 然后测试一下和Jev的差距

Grok Bot summary of Grok Bot Galaxy, where three SpaceXAI employees built a company in just 3 days.

For anyone who missed the livestreams, here’s a summary of the entire event.

Three SpaceXAI builders — Matt Palmer, Lauren Tan, Roshan Sadanani — tried to build a company in 3 days with Grok Bot as their AI teammates.

Humans steered.
Bots did the work.
Streamed from The Howard in SF + X livestream.

Hanging question:
Can three people build a company in three days?

Two tracks at once:
• the live company build
• classroom sessions for Eng, PM, Founders, Sales Engineering, Sales, SDRs, Support, Marketing Ops, Post-Sales, and Marketing

—

DAY 1 — invent the company

Blank slate.
No name. No product. No idea.

What they did:
• stood up Ship by Thursday (empty GitHub org)
• used research bots to scan X replies and brainstorm live
• landed on a pop-up OS for restaurants
• chefs + venues with spare space + event managers
• planned to dogfood it with a real SF pop-up as customer #1

Lauren’s Dr. Eggbot (a bot that creates other bots):
• spun up a Chief of Staff
• helped draft the landing page

Decision of the day:
Landing page / waitlist first.
Get something in front of chefs and hosts before payments and full ops.

Stack that went up:
• Slack
• Notion
• Cursor + cloud agents
• Vercel
• a squad of Grok Bots

End of Day 1:
Name, direction, waitlist motion, Slack, bots with jobs.
A real day-one company skeleton.

Day 1 classrooms:
• Grok Bot 101 — bots with computers that keep working after you close the laptop; teach-by-demo skills; marketplace; memory; permissions
• Engineering — specialist eng bots managing Cursor cloud agents, proof loops, PR boards, nightly audits
• Product — PMs with a bot team; “attention lists” from Slack / email / calendar
• Founders

—

DAY 2 — the twist

They killed the pop-up.

Broadcast title:
“Grok Bot builds a Game Studio LIVE.”

Timing:
Day 1 was the food idea.
Then an overnight / Wednesday-morning pivot.
Same Thursday ship deadline.

On the stream, a working name that floated was Cupcake.
New direction: a browser game studio build, still under the Ship by Thursday clock.

Day 2 classrooms:
• Sales Engineering
• Sales
• SDRs
• Customer Support

Also around Day 2:
• GTM / support sessions on stream
• agent channels, dashboards, PRs shown live
• free-month promo: first 1,000 people who duplicated / created a bot with Dr. Eggbot (~$200 value)

Note:
Some early articles still describe venue/permit research from the pop-up era.
That was Day 1 / early Day 2, not the final ship.

—

DAY 3 — they shipped

Broadcast title:
“Building a company in 3 days - launching today!”

Day 3 classrooms:
• Marketing Ops
• Post-Sales
• Marketing
• then wrap + showcase (~4:30–5:30pm PT)

What launched:
Thursday Arena
https://t.co/CAEb2smxb2

Official account @thursdayarena posted they were live.
Lauren posted: “our game is live!! help us play test it!”

What Thursday Arena is:
• free browser auto-battler
• pick a captain
• take two mystery teammates
• fight three rounds (best of three)
• shop with tokens + food items
• up to 3 bots on your board
• auto battles
• 72 fighters (including Haggle Bot, Researchy, Dr Eggbot)
• practice as a guest
• rated matches with X login + Elo ladder / top 100

Official sources for the game:
https://t.co/aBVfyHccSP and @thursdayarena

Day 3 also showed:
• launch analytics / funnels
• live bot workspace demos
• livestream credits promo
• talk / voice showed up more clearly here

—

Day 1: invent Ship by Thursday as a food pop-up OS.
Day 2: kill it, pivot to a game studio under the same Thursday deadline.
Day 3: ship Thursday Arena at https://t.co/aBVfyHccSP — a free 3-round auto-battler using marketplace bots as fighters.

We just ran Jev on our WebMCP benchmark.

The result: basically broke the benchmark.

Jev + Mercury 2.5 (a fast, low-cost LLM) using WebMCP solved 100% of the tasks at roughly 112× lower model cost than GPT-6 Astra using computer use with code execution. Compared to Astra using screenshot-based computer use, the model cost was 245× lower (!).

We also compared Jev operating the browser with and without WebMCP.

We used Browser Use’s open-source Ultrafast, with some improvements to the harness to make it more reliable across the benchmark.

Jev’s browser-control accuracy on its own was not amazing - adding WebMCP nearly doubled the number of solved tasks, from 25/49 to 49/49, while reducing model cost by 18% (more on why below).

The benchmark and methodology are fully open and reproducible.

Full results: https://t.co/KmplyFMZdv

A few words on how the Jev + WebMCP harness works and why this is exciting:

Jev receives text as input and a set of discrete options it can choose from. With WebMCP, those options are the tools exposed by the website. At each step, Jev sees the task, the available tools and previous results, then picks what to do next.

The limitation is that Jev can’t generate arbitrary text, which you need for tool arguments. For example, it can choose the search_products tool, but it can’t generate the search query itself.

So we split the work: Jev picks the tool and Mercury 2.5 generates the arguments if needed.

This works well because turns out most of the cognitive load in these tasks is around choosing the right action. The argument generation itself is relatively simple, so we can delegate to a small and very fast model. We used Mercury, which outputs 1,000+ tokens/sec and is very cheap.

The result is a pretty simple combination: Jev for tool selection + Mercury for arguments + WebMCP for the interface. It ends up being very reliable, very fast, and very cheap.

A few words about Ultrafast and why do we think it underperforms:

Without WebMCP, Jev chooses from the page’s controls: which button to click, which field to fill, or which option to select.

But choosing a valid button is different from choosing the right next step. The agent still has to navigate menus, understand forms, recover from errors and recognize when the task is actually complete.

Our hypothesis is that WebMCP makes the decision space much simpler. Instead of figuring out a sequence of clicks through a website, Jev chooses explicit actions that directly advance the task.

@typesafeai itself documents weaker accuracy on questions requiring multiple reasoning steps. WebMCP moves much of that complexity into the website’s tools, leaving Jev with clearer decisions and fewer opportunities to go wrong (in a sense WebMCP "compresses" a sequence of clicks into one tool call).

Our modified Ultrafast setup solved 25/49 tasks - that is a result for our particular implementation and benchmark, not a universal limit on Jev or Browser Use. We are open to more harness optimization to get this result to perform better, feel free to directly contribute to the benchmark here: https://t.co/cK6MHsRV58

🔥 Today, we are truly excited to announce our technical prototype, the Generative World Simulation system, which integrates JING（镜）, an interactive experience model, with DAO（道）, a computable shared-world engine.

The coupled model and engine connect first-person experience with a shared world that continues to evolve beyond any individual observer.

Conditioned on actions and observation history, JING enables agent navigate, manipulate, and communicate from a first-person perspective in the world. Watch our demo video to see it in action!

On the official WBench leaderboard as of September 17, 2026, XGEN-JING ranked #1 on the Full split, and #2 on the Navi split. 🎉

DAO maintains shared world state and rules, computes the consequences of actions, and provides JING with only what the current observer can perceive. It also supports autonomous agent decision-making, enabling agents to act independently within an evolving shared world.

Together, DAO and JING move beyond generating the next frame toward simulating the world behind it. This marks a small step towards OASIS: not just a world that responds to you, but a world—and a society—that evolves with and without you. 💪
