Yesterday the coding agent in my Cursor IDE devoured an .env file. My backup system is resilient, so it took about a few minutes to reproduce the lost keys, but it was still shocking to see the agent do something so damaging and explicitly forbidden by my configuration.

Hah, Zynga just ripped off my game Typeshift (www.puzzmo.com/game/typeshift). Undoubtably their version will be way more addictive and manipulative.
Totally legit to take inspiration, tho I do wish they hadn't ripped off the lock aesthetics.
Typeshift is playable on Puzzmo if you want to try it!

Kinda bummed the only hotkey I can figure out on Bluesky is N to make a New bleep. Anyway, fun fact: did you know you can press the N key on Bluesky on desktop browsers to make a new bleep? You can!

In-memory free-text search is a super-power for LLMs; spend less on inference by sprinkling in some free lexical search into the prompt… sgnt.ai/p/free-text-...

While working on LLM-driven NPCs, I observed significant improvements in several areas by adding a simple component: in-memory free-text search

Then, of course, they could easily remove an author's work without affecting the LLM, so they should simply allow any author who still retains copyright to tell them to extract the book from their training... it has near 0 affect on the LLM, so what's the problem?

I came across this halftoning idea sometime last week. While the idea was relatively easy to understand and fun to implement, I've spent quite a lot of time trying to make the result look nice.
I'm also including a fun glitch from the early tests.

After 30 minutes of an intense mating ritual, these #turtles are exhausted but still sticking together. With their flippers around each other to breathe, it almost looks like they’re dancing. A beautiful moment of #love on Wilson Island, #Australia

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered.
As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

There’s been a lot to be upset about in the last few months.
But as an American, this truly disgusts me. The USA’s closest ally now is a guy who calls himself the “coolest dictator” — this Oval Office meeting is like a huge F.U. to the judicial branch and the Supreme Court’s 9-0 decision

COLLINS: Can President Bukele weigh in on this? Do you plan to return Garcia?
BUKELE: How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? Of course I'm not going to do it. The question is preposterous
TRUMP: These are sick people

The lies Pam Bondi and Stephen Miller just told about Abrego Garcia on national TV...
...I have no words for them. I am sick of calling things obscene or deranged. These are obviously evil people charting an obviously evil course for our country.
The idea of Hell was devised for people like this.

I think in this timeline we WILL get exterminated by AI, Skynet still, but instead of ruthlessly efficient computers making perfect decisions, it's going to be kill bots powered by Grok and Starlink fulfilling Steven Miller's will. Such malice helming such a wheel should fill everyone with dread.
