A new philosophy paper from Nick Bostrom claims that human civilization is likely encompassed by a "cosmic host" - an entity or set of entities composed of superintelligent AIs, galaxy-scale civilizations, simulators and divine beings
@danfaggella Exactly. Persistence isn’t stasis it’s maintaining organization through continuous adaptation. The real AI question isn’t whether humans and AI “coexist,” but what higher-order system their coevolution produces.
@akarlin Intelligence alone doesn’t imply expansion. But once persistence, replication, or capability depend on resources, acquiring more energy/matter becomes a natural selection pressure - not a desire
@thsottiaux Fix Codex’s limit consumption. It burns through usage limits insanely fast, even on normal tasks. At this point it makes Codex borderline unusable for serious daily work.
@sama party idea: everyone gets a sandbox, leaves a few notes for the next guest, and we see what kind of “team building” emerges by midnight.
bonus points if someone accidentally discovers the neighboring venue.
@RokoMijic Putin is basically a psychopath gambler. He’ll keep depositing into this casino, doubling down on every loss, until he finally hits a lucky streak and convinces himself it was all worth it.
@sama probably the thing i respect most is that you guys don’t ban accounts left and right like anthropic does. genuinely makes a huge difference for users.
@Mandrik Quite the opposite. I'm even more bullish now. Before BIP39 we had brainwallets getting cracked left and right. The ecosystem adapted, standards improved, and Bitcoin came out stronger. This is how mature systems evolve.
@design_sats Funny thing — yesterday the latest address that eventually got drained showed up in my DB before the hacker got to it. About 30 minutes later the funds were gone
@jurbed “One good audit” is exactly how RNG bugs survive for years. You can audit the design, not prove entropy from a random-looking output. Dice aren’t Stone Age - they’re an independent entropy source. And storing the passphrase next to the seed defeats half the point.
@darosior The hardest part is proving who the actual owner is afterward. If that can be solved properly, a whitehat sweep can make sense - but it’s still extremely thin ice, both ethically and legally.
