For as long as his hair has been silver (going back to his 20s), John Cornyn has been winning elections.  Among those victories seemed, perhaps, to be the 74-year-old U.S. senator’s surprising first-place finish in the March primary—over expected frontrunner Attorney General Ken Paxton—which set up next week’s decisive runoff. On primary night, Cornyn called […]

Free admission to Canadian national parks this summer! “From June 19 to September 7, no fees apply for: admission for all visitors to all national historic sites, national parks, and national marine conservation areas operated by Parks Canada.”

I'm going to release the Claude-generated code that enables it to work with me on projects that are written and managed in outlines.

Last night’s game 2, quick thoughts. I could blame all the blatant fouling with the Thunder holding Wemby every possession, which also contributed to the Thunder getting offensive rebounds, but really it’s the turnovers. Gotta clean that up, hopefully with De’Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper back soon. 🏀

At Long Last, I Have Maxximized My Looks. “Apparently, eating a fistful of iguana tranquilizers for breakfast every morning has turned me cold-blooded, and I am no longer appropriately adapted for life on the Earth’s surface.”

Just asked Claude to save this in memory. "in general i create local variables with partial results because 1. i can step through the calculations in the debugger. 2. the order guides my mind when im reading this code, 3. it lets me put a name on a partial value. this is helpful when i want to piece together wtf the code is supposed to be doing. and 4. it makes no difference in the efficiency of the code for a variety of reasons. please save that somewhere." i'm getting a lot of these rules down. i have them memorized but have never written them up because i didn't have a system for saving it somewhere relevant. i always thought ai would be good for going back and reading all my blog posts and creating somethjing readable, but as often is the case, the way it works turned out to be quite different, accomplishes the same thing.

The Library of Leng contains old usenet posts and forgotten articles from Magic: the Gathering's long history.

Fossils unearthed in the Northwest Territories push the origins of animal sex back by 5-10 million years and reveal the earliest examples of locomotion in the fossil record.

From the SpaceX filing, we learned that Anthropic will be paying xAI $1.25 billion per month to host Claude. And Tom Brown of Anthropic posted on X that they’ll also expand into Colossus 2:

Appreciate elonmusk and the team helping us find good homes for the Claudes.

Strange partnership. Only a couple months ago, Dario Amodei griped about Greg Brockman donating money to Trump, although to his credit he walked it back. Now Anthropic is putting Claude’s future into the hands of Elon Musk, with all of Elon’s political baggage.

As companies get bigger, maybe there are market forces that take over from stated principles. Or maybe we ascribe values to companies that were never really there. To be fair, though, I was also just considering giving X money to re-enable tweet cross-posting for my users. Micro.blog is so small, I can choose not to.

After the Trump administration turned away from electrification, two of the nation’s biggest governments will advocate for more electric vans, police cars, and eventually, snowplows.

If you are following the growing artificial intelligence industry at all, you’ve probably come across some facts and figures about how AI is going to use up all of the country’s water, while also using up all the power and causing prices to spike for regular non-AI using humans, and also that the giant data centers required for this industry are taking over all the usable land, and will cause pollution to soar, and/or lead to a wide range of other negative societal effects.
