There's something wonderful about the NASA Kilopower reactor: A tiny solid HEU core with one control rod that needs moving once a decade, pumpless capillary water cooling, Stirling engines, a molten sodium primary and it looks like a crown headpiece for a mad alien emperor.

A clear example of the contrast between non-profit and for-profit approaches. ClosedAI indeed.

Bizarrely beautiful hi-rises. I admire the imagination of the architects, and the skill of the builders.

Knowledge lets you turn any resource (commodities, computers, labor, money) into products, services, investments. Obviously, unique knowledge is better than widely dispersed knowledge. But it’s knowledge that makes us wealthier than cavemen, who had as much time and physicality.


The lines between advertising, influence, propaganda, and manipulation are increasingly blurred. Regardless of political affiliation, public disclosure of financial incentives is a necessary step in the right direction.

Paid social media influencers should have to publicly disclose who they represent. Their accounts should have different badges so people know the difference. And they should have to register under FARA if they are paid for foreign country’s causes.



Exactly why AI should be given free reign to influence and improve modern healthcare. Too much incentive for sickness and corresponding wealth extraction across the industry.

Boomer wealth will not pass to millennials. It will be swallowed by the medical care industry in the course of delivering continuous and heroic end-of-life care efforts to the morbidly ill. No expense shall be spared in extending the technical, legal life of the boomer, until…



Does this mean we can stop trying to block out the sun?

Captured last night- probably the coolest comet shot I've ever gotten. I've never seen such a dynamic tail on a come. Incredible active, and moving quickly, which makes photographing it a challenge. See how it moves in the reply.

Alignment was always about maintaining control.

This is the greatest flippening of all time. Artificial language models have surpassed biological language models in terms of content generated.

Many parts of the world would greatly benefit from these now. Sand + melted plastic trash can create incredibly resilient structures. Smaller 3-D printer assemblies can be mounted on a truck bed, so rural travel is easy.

Are 3D Printed Houses The Future?



If not for planned obsolescence, there would be little reason to buy any new car, washing machine, light bulb, and thousands of other products we rely on for day-to-day living. Entire industries are a scam.
