Last Notes
It's crazy that Nvidia is now so big that the stock price falling would crash the entire world economy.

There's a difference between burning someone for spreading heresy and burning them because she won't sleep with you.
Anything over 160 is a bit dodgy. 😂 Tiny sample size.
I don't know. I've only taken them with psychologists. They can take hours.
He knows that overpromising and underdelivering won't cost him. He just keeps getting richer.
I'm not a fan of any of the Tech Bros.
Imwald Android

I also use Amethyst. There are some things Imwald Android does that Amethyst doesn't, and vive versa, but they are a good match and you can see the same feed and notifications on both.
Imwald Web is now closed.
He does have some very particular talents and an amazing drive. Drive is really important. Most people have very little drive.
Although my ability to measure degrades, the further away they are from me, on the scale. He's at least smarter than I am.
Yeah, somewhere around 150 seems about right.
His genius isn't merely intelligence. Intelligence is what allows someone's particular genius to flourish. I think he's the best marketer since Steve Jobs.
Marketing is everything, in our modern market.
It's a whole thing, and outside my frame of reference. Drug-addled, but without the drugs.
Well, I suppose it adds some spice to their lives. At some point you do get bored with explaining to everyone that Current Pope Whatshisname is literally the Antichrist.
Wer lesen kann, ist im Vorteil.
He just seems like a nerdy guy, to me. Autistic nerdy dude.
Doesn't seem very out of the ordinary. A lot of success is just circumstance and inheritance and luck.
I totally felt her, tho. 😂
I was like not on anyone's list, for the longest time, for a whole host of reasons. Then I turned 35 and it was like everything changed and I was on everyone's list.
Kind 6s _are_ unicorn territory, dear. 😂
Sometimes I wonder why it was Protestantism that brought on the global scourge of witch trials, but I have been on Nostr for three years and some male Prot calls me a witch or demon spawn or something on a nearly monthly basis.
It's the most bizarre habit, but it's definitely a thing.

Team Kind 6 here. I laughed.

Yeah, Nvidia is bigger than the combined stock of all markets except the USA and China. And it's bigger than the GDP of Germany, the UK, Japan, France, etc.
The entire world economy is just Nvidia, at this point.
Yes, but you're missing the point that Another Person Next To You Watching TV is not the same as full fellowship with the wider congregation.
Yes, we also broadcast the Mass live, on radio and TV, every Sunday, but it's just not the same. It was great during long hospital stays, but I was back in the church building, as soon as I could be.
Some models that I have really grown to appreciate are my self-hosted grammar check and translation servers. I use them from #Imwald Android and it's so nice, fr.
I love that I can switch from English to German, if I want, and it then does the grammar check in German. I think it does language auto-detection, as well, but that's always a bit iffy.

That short path between a church abandoning the Mass and the other sacraments, and people thinking watching TV on the couch or chatting about God with their computer is an adequate substitute for practicing their religion.
Well, I do almost everything just for fun.
I only felt a temporary productivity crunch because we needed to get the e-books out there, so that we don't get bored by our own lack of progress. The AI got us over a hump, basically.
Am I paranoid or does this stuff sound sloppy? Maybe he's just using a translator? But it's all so _agree and amplify_.
@npub1z50…ng6t
Yeah, Erlang is on my list because Michaels' relay is Elixir.
We have stuff at work, that I might integrate, but I can do that myself, in my sleep.
You'll perform that trick ten times and get bored of it, is my prediction.
I am the kween of being able to read code written in languages I have never learned, due to decades of moderating code live code-reviews. So, I can't really say because I can usually decipher the bit in question and I am good at asking questions, to check for quality loss.
But only that snippet or that function. Without deeper knowledge, I can't freely navigate through the codebase because I don't know where things would likely be.
This reminds me. I feel like this attractiveness range (it applies to both friends and potential mates) explains why so many people think LLMs are *Wow, so smart!* but some of us are completely underwhelmed.
Like, I'm impressed with the stuff it can do and how much tedious effort I can offload to it -- although I have started missing the tedious stuff, actually, there's something to be said for zoning out to tedious labour -- but it mostly seems like a programmable robot and a chatty search engine, to me. And I only interact with the most-advanced models.
Everything lesser seems dull and dumb as dog shit. Like that annoying guy at the döner store who tries to chat you up, but can barely reason his way out of a paper box, and it's like, Just give me the döner, please. 🥙
Mr. Chatbot, just give me the damned döner.

That puts him in the 99.9...% percentile, which is like 1/1000 people or less.
Not thinking Elon is brilliant just means you aren't very smart. I don't have to like something someone else is doing with their intelligence, in order to measure it. He's solidly within my "smart enough to be attractive to me" range (yes, I am my own IQ test), which puts him at least 140.
(Normally, that should be 110, as the attractiveness range is 20-points in either direction, with a curve peaking above her own, but I always shift right at least 10 because I'm good-looking enough to get away with it and women are thin on the ground up there. 😂)
On the one hand, I can imagine how good this tastes.
On the other hand, everything is one color: light-brown. Even the drink. When garnish?
How do you have 5000 members on a Nostr app? Is it an agent chatroom, or something?
Vibe-coding gets you out of the box really fast, but I'm sick of not knowing my way around the code and building in languages I haven't learnt yet, like Kotlin and Elixir.
In 10 days my Cursor Ultra switches to the much-cheaper Cursor Pro and my development journey will change. I want to hand-roll a lot more, going forward.
Also, vibe-coding gets incredibly tedious, incredibly fast, if you do it for 60 hours/week. I feel like I've "done" vibe-coding and I miss stuff like Jenkins (don't shoot me).
He must never login because it's been that way for weeks.

Got it. No idea why it worked on Amethyst but not Imwald.
I still don't know which kind it was or which client you sent it from.
I deleted Jumble Web. I will only be maintaining Imwald Android, going forward. Alexandria is the web app I am going to focus on, with my limited time.
They post stuff about books. We posted their actual books.
Yeah, them our books, now. 😁
I was obliquely referencing #newlay, but yeah, that too.
We've just rebuilt the gifbuddy in our clients. If any other blossom servers are willing to offer a GIF api for us to hook up to, feel free to add that and @ me.
wss://pipe.imwald.eu has been upgrade to #newlay v0.3.52
#cordn chats that use pipe as a coordinator now have their own blossom space.
