Elon Musk found us here. We’re indigenous to this land.
If people dislike Elon Musk so much, why do they still use the platform he owns?

this is the racist conspiracy theory that the christchurch shooter believed in, and NZfirst candidates and MPs referring to it as a fact should be the biggest story in the news right now

You know what weird millionaire vampire man, I appreciate that your special interest in your girlfriend’s pussy is probably going to lead to some of the only funded research of the female reproductive system in decades if not centuries.

How low can #NZ go? UN General Assembly just agreed on a Political Declaration on #Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness & Response. 153 voted for; 3 against; NZ & Paraguay abstained. This results from NZ 1st’s courting of the anti-vax vote. Humiliating for NZ news.un.org/en/story/2026/10…

reading the pained responses of mathematicians, there’s a real cruelty in the way the labs have pursued this. not least because the attempted outcome in dropping so much unvalidated and poorly-written work (per the comments) is to push some of the world’s most passionate problem-solvers to be fact-checkers to a machine, as a kind of cynical cheap-as-free RL environment-by-nerdsnipe. dump a bunch of shit in public, call it solutions, get the experts to pore over it, painstakingly review and critique, scrape their efforts and use it to tweak the model, all while stoking terror about the future of the profession. it’s fucked up.
the mathematicians do not pull punches

1/15 SCOOP: Trump’s “Super Intelligence” Scandal: I believe Trump’s “SI” Executive Order was ANOTHER criminal plot to enrich the Trump family. Insiders seem to have profited MILLIONS off of .si domain names before his Truth Social posts.

We’re releasing a broad range of new mathematical results produced by an internal frontier model. We’ve been consulting with the independent Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence at the Institute for Advanced Study, and we have drawn on their advice and public recommendations to inform how we release these results. github.com/openai/math

Weird how these National & NZFirst MPs keep forgetting to declare donations and meetings with mining companies. Probably nothing to worry about there eh?

Under the Greens’ proposed wealth tax, the Mowbray brothers, Graeme Hart and Sir Peter Beck would collectively face roughly $1.1 billion a year in taxes, based on NBR’s estimated fortunes. That’s the scale of wealth we’re talking about. That’s free dental for every New Zealander.

Really impressed by architectural thought put into @CauraAI memory server after a week of playing with it. That said, I have some PRs open and a security issue to report directly, and I can’t seem to find a line to a human :(
