I asked fable 5.2 to invent a new musical form.

Fable 5.2 wrote a symphony that’s shaped like a training run.

The orchestra starts as random noise, learns the key, pulse, harmony and the melody, then plays music it was never shown.

Honest answer: it varies wildly by location, but recent 2026 data (SmartAsset using MIT living wage + 50/30/20) puts a comfortable household income for two adults + two kids at $188k in the cheapest state (Mississippi) up to $330k in Massachusetts. Most states need $200k+.

A more grounded estimate using actual BLS spending + savings lands closer to $130-175k median. 2027 will be a few percent higher with inflation. Median US household income is still only ~$88k, so "comfortable" is well above average.

Elon Musk explains his 5-step process for running companies:

"First, make your requirements less dumb. Your requirements are definitely dumb. It does not matter who gave them to you.

It's particularly dangerous if a smart person gave you the requirements because you might not question them enough. Everyone's wrong no matter who you are.

Everyone's wrong some of the time. So make your requirements less dumb. Then try very hard to delete the part or process.

This is actually very important. If you're not occasionally adding things back in, you are not deleting enough.

The bias tends to be very strongly towards let's add this part or process step in case we need it. But you can basically make in-case arguments for so many things and for a rocket that is trying to be the first fully reusable rocket.

There's never been a fully reusable rocket. People don't understand. This is like the holy grail of rocketry. So you've got to delete the part or process step. Super important.

You can't hedge your bets. That's why the grid funds, for example, do not fall down because that's a whole extra mechanism that we don't need.

Also, whatever requirement or constraint you have, it must come with a name, not a department. Because you can't ask the department. You have to ask a person. That person who's putting forward their requirement or constraint must agree that they must take responsibility for that requirement.

Otherwise, you can have a requirement that basically an intern two years ago randomly came up with off the cuff and they're not even at the company anymore. These things are often just way more silly than you think. So step one, make your requirements less dumb.

Step two, delete the part or process step. If you're not adding things back in 10% of the time, you're clearly not deleting enough.

And then only the third step is simplify or optimize.

The third step, not the first step. The reason it's the third step is because possibly the most common error of a smart engineer is to optimize a thing that should not exist.

Everyone's been trained in high school and college that you've got to answer the question. Convergent logic. So you can't tell the professor your question is dumb. You'll get a bad grade. You have to answer the question. So everyone's basically, without knowing it, they've got a mental straitjacket on. They'll work on optimizing the thing that should simply not exist.

And then finally, you get to step four, which is accelerate cycle time.

You're moving too slowly, go faster. But don't go faster until you have worked on the other three things first. You can always make things go faster.

And then the final step is automate.

Now, I've personally made the mistake of going backwards on all five steps multiple times. Literally, I automated, accelerated, simplified, and then deleted.

One example I've talked about before is there were these fiberglass mats on top of the Model 3 battery pack that were in between the floor pan and the battery.

And it was at one point choking the battery pack production line. And I was basically living on the battery pack production line trying to fix the line.

It was choking the entire Model 3 production program. So the first mistake was I tried to fix the automation, like make the robot better. So automating was a mistake. Then accelerating was a mistake. Then optimizing was a mistake.

And finally, I said, what the hell are these mats for?

And I asked the battery safety team, what are these mats for? Are they for fire protection or something?

They said, no, they're for noise and vibration. Then I asked an NVH, a noise, vibration, harshness team, what's it for? They said fire safety.

So literally, it was like being in a Dilbert cartoon. Actually, I feel like I'm in a Dilbert cartoon quite frequently. So then finally, OK, great, let's try a car with the fiber glass mats and without. And they put a microphone to both and see if you can tell the difference.

In fact, I was like, which one is which? So we just deleted them and just bypassed this $2 million robot cell.

It was just a complete pile of nonsense."

He is a danger to children in our community. Throw him in jail where he belongs. I do not care about his family ties. A predator is a predator and deserves to be punished accordingly.

🧵 You Can't See Everything: Perceptual Attacks on Embodied AI

[Fan Commentary: Joe Rogan Recaps @JoeRoganRecaps]

Joe Rogan just hosted his most important episode ever after Republicans lost the midterms as White House insider Calley Means just exposed the real people who are running Trump’s presidency and lists key inner circle names like Susie Wiles, Jame Blair, Richard Walters, and the most powerful lobbying firm known as Ballard Partners:

MEANS: “Susie Wiles is the most powerful chief of staff in modern American history. She has taken a stranglehold on any policy decision. No policy decision gets done without her office giving it the okay. She was one of the top lobbyists in the country. It is impossible to describe to you how demonic this culture is.”

CONTEXT: Means, who resigned from the administration in OCTOBER, says he witnessed an extraordinary concentration of power inside the White House.

He alleges that cabinet secretaries and senior officials spent enormous amounts of time attempting to win favor with Wiles' office because of its influence over which policies could advance.

He then identifies several people he believes were central to that power structure:

SUSIE WILES: White House chief of staff.

JAMES BLAIR: A longtime Trump political strategist and former deputy White House chief of staff.

RICHARD WALTERS: Deputy White House chief of staff and longtime Republican political operative.

WALKER BARRETT: Senior White House adviser with extensive congressional experience.

But the most consequential part of his accusation concerns the CORPORATE LOBBYING INDUSTRY.

Before entering Trump's White House, Wiles had a career representing corporate clients, including working at the influential Washington lobbying firm BALLARD PARTNERS.

And the money involved in that industry is staggering.

According to federal lobbying disclosures, Ballard Partners collected approximately $88 MILLION in lobbying revenue during 2025, more than QUADRUPLING its reported revenue from 2024.

That made Ballard one of the highest-earning lobbying operations in Washington.

And in MAY 2025, the watchdog organization Public Citizen identified SIX FORMER WILES CLIENTS that had reported lobbying White House offices during the administration's first three months.

Those clients included companies involved in tobacco, automobiles, fertilizer, and other major industries.

The White House disputed suggestions of improper influence and said Wiles generally did not participate in meetings or decisions involving former clients.

Those disclosures establish real corporate lobbying relationships.

They do NOT, by themselves, prove that Wiles improperly favored those companies or directed policies for their benefit.

But Means argues that the broader culture of Washington is precisely what Trump promised to confront.

Now consider the extraordinary political timing.

IMPORTANT NOTES: On NOVEMBER 3, Democrats won control of BOTH CHAMBERS OF CONGRESS in a sweeping midterm defeat for Republicans.

And TODAY, NOVEMBER 6, Trump announced that Susie Wiles will leave the chief-of-staff position, with Stephen Miller taking over on November 9.

Trump PRAISED Wiles for her service and said she would continue working for his political operation.

The FBI and our partners have arrested Luis Benítez Alcántara, a Mexican judge who allegedly accepted bribes and used his position to aid former FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitive Ryan Wedding and his associates.

Benítez Alcántara was a district judge in Mexico City who allegedly accepted $2 million in exchange for granting bond to and ordering the release of Wedding’s second in command, while Wedding was orchestrating a billion-dollar transnational criminal organization and the largest supplier of cocaine to Canada with connections in Colombia, Mexico, and the U.S.

Benítez Alcántara is charged with nine counts of accessory after the fact for assisting the individual in order to hinder or prevent his apprehension, trial or punishment.
