99% of CNBC guests (and employees) act as if inflation is super low and no big deal.

@elonmusk Unfortunately Democrats and legacy media are perfectly ok with holding two contradictory positions simultaneously.

A special kind of insanity!

The modern age has richly rewarded people with a combination of high intelligence and high agency. Now that many aspects of intelligence are successfully being automated, it seems likely that people with relatively lower intelligence but exceptional agency will come into their own if they are willing to egolessly accept AI advice.

Imagine a ruthless criminal that completely trusts everything their always-on AI glasses are telling them, knowing that it is carefully looking out for their best interests and isn’t scheming to betray them.

Andrej Karpathy shared a 243-line Python script that fully implements training and inference for a GPT model, stripping away all efficiencies to show the core algorithm. A user quipped that the AI industry is basically this math plus massive marketing. Karpathy then noted he's simplified it further to ~200 lines. It's a demo of AI's fundamental simplicity.

Bravo

@Newaiworld_ it's down 200 lines now, i realized i was *still* overcomplicating things. but it's past midnight and i'm calling it here now.

@banteg Your desire to be platformed without risking anything is overruled by the social utility of exposing foreign scammers intervening in our politics.

My favorite thing about this chart is that the median homebuyer age rose from 39 in 2005 to 59 in 2025

20 years over 20 years

It’s literally the same people buying the homes two decades later
