The best use case for implementing a blockchain is offline communication and permanent record of events during a crisis (disaster, war, government oppression)

It's open source, I'm not selling it. Spread the word to help this project come to life.

[It's FOSS @Itsfoss]

Linux runs the world

@ritu_twts How can you steer an AI or train it on novelties if you don't know how to read or write code?

That's like asking if it's worth knowing how to swim now that we have a boat. What do you do if the boat capsizes, or is unavailable, or if the boat is on fire?

@outrotuiter @lantanaseason @ritu_twts I don't believe it changed why people learn math. It's usually faster to do mental math than need calculators for most things we use math for on a daily basis. The process of deconstructing problems to find solutions is why we learn math; not calculating, but learning to think.

[shizuoka @notshizuko]

@ritu_twts asking if coding is worth learning now feels like asking if math was worth learning after calculators showed up

It makes good developers faster and bad developers more dangerous. People think AI killed coding when it mostly killed memorizing syntax

@elonmusk Can you dignify your family members by naming all of your children and their mammas?

When a bald guy gets hair plugs, he's still bald. There's no difference between body mods and wigs.

I'm a balding dude, no combover, just lost hair naturally. No shame, it's normal. The shame comes from the personality changes that extend from indulging in that purile vanity.

[Kristopher Driver @paxdriver]

@elonmusk Ah yes, you're doing a great job making the world a better place. Well done, this is a totally coherent mindset to advertise strength of character...

[Kristopher Driver @paxdriver]

The thing that works better than stacking inefficient language models on top of one another to try to not get caught believing a hallucination is fact is to gain competence and use your calculator to calculate instead of asking your calculator what you should be asking it to do..

Grok is only good for supervising GPT while it coordinates Claude's interpretation of DeepSeek's results...

The amount of resources we've allocated to running LLMs to look after other LLMs and code api connections for all of the supervision is objectively absurd.

I miss the live chat rooms with people around the world that Twitter used to host with journalists and academics dissecting recently published papers.

Twitter used to be where literate people exchanged well-researched opinions and verified study materials, believe it or not.

If you're an introvert, meet people by introducing yourself as an introvert.

You will be more readily accepted being authentically weird than being fakely outgoing. It's so much easier to be yourself than it is to feign charm, and yields better results with less effort anyway.

@so_phieC Hello? reminds me of those old pick-up artists who would swear by the wisdom of saying hi to approach people lmao

oh, man, the 2000's were a simpler time for sure

After changing my phone number I've finally realized that it's Elon's twitter that's causing all my spam. I've been a hermit for months and using burner numbers anywhere I had to ever since changing my number, and only X has had access to it all this time.

Fuck you Elon for spam

[Kristopher Driver @paxdriver]

You can do better than this... trust me.

@VandyMetaX @stats_feed Nah, we just have a wider horizon than most. It awards a more panoramic perspective of short vs longterm benefits and value judgments imho.

It's not a crisis, people are a gift in the grand scheme of things we're always better off together.
