Why are folks still submitting so many twitter.com links?

138 megawatts is how much the company is investing in a "carbon-free energy project in the state" - not the power usage of the datacenter.

Why do you all still submit twitter.com links when that domain does not even work?

Seriously. I'm surprised you got downvoted. The internet is so much more hostile to minds than it was when I was a kid.

This distinction seems more arbitrary over time. Growing up I was taught different species couldn’t interbreed. But what about Neanderthal and Sapiens?

You just need to keep the DNS record updated.

I tried AP Pro 3 but decided to return them in favor of my v2. The v2 felt more comfortable in my ear and were good enough. I was also disappointed the heartbeat monitor only works while exercising.

New comment by hooo in "Pre-Sputnik Sky Survey Anomalies Correlate with Nuclear Tests and UAP Reports"

hooo — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 20:41:35 +0000

Researchers analyzing 100,000+ transients in 1949-1957 astronomical plates found they were 45% more likely during nuclear tests and showed small but statistically significant correlations with UAP reports. The findings argue against simple plate defects and add to earlier work [1] that found puzzling Earth shadow deficits and aligned transients suggesting reflective objects at high altitudes.

Totally agree with your view on the symbolic context injection. Is this how things are done with code/dev AI right now? Like if you consider the state of the art.

While it would be cool if it were alien technology[1], it looks like an ancient comet?

> Good question, I'll try to cram it but it's a whole book based on 3 years of modeling ultimate futures: imagine all the universes from the most dystopian to the most utopian. Ours is in the middle. If you want to go to an above average one - no problem, many will join you to "the party".

Is there a literal book about this? Can you point us to it?
