Air travel is fundamentally a different service in the age of @Starlink. What I’m paying for is an Internet Cafe in the sky. Why would I pay for 6 hours at a Net Cafe without Internet? It’s more important than a bed. If Starlink is advertised and not working it’s kidnapping.

The sex difference in throwing is one of the largest behavioral sex differences ever measured. While training matters, the disparity appears to be mostly biological. Yet Anne Fausto-Sterling argues in favor of pure socialization while ignoring a mountain of evidence to the contrary. Few scholars claim to deny biology outright, with most agreeing that nature and nurture interact. In practice, however, they routinely reject biological explanations in favor of comparatively implausible environmental ones. They pay lip service to biology, but never actually allow it to explain anything. This new long read by professors Robert Deaner and Mike Lombardo examines the science of throwing, hunting, and combat, and ask a simple question: What evidence would actually be allowed to count as evidence for an innate sex difference?

I am bewildered, and not very impressed, by the visceral, naked, irrational hatred spat out by some defenders of Jason Arday. If a Cambridge professor is accused of being an unqualified charlatan, the accusation might be racially motivated. On the other hand it might not, depending on the evidence. The correct question to ask is not, ”What is the colour of his skin” but “Is it in fact true that he is an unqualified charlatan?” Please examine the evidence before leaping to the assumption of racism. As for the idea that journalists “piled in on him” and “hounded him to his death”, most attacks were against Cambridge University. Jason himself was widely regarded as an unfortunate victim of foolish promotion way beyond his ability to cope. In appointing him to a professorship for which he was manifestly unqualified – in ludicrously describing him as “the best in the world” – certain senior members of the university showed a level of patronising condescension towards black people that could fairly be described as racism, while at the same time making him tragically vulnerable to such attacks as came his way.

More people died in France this year from not having air conditioning (7,300) than American deaths from mass shootings in all of recorded U.S. history (1,741).😬

So I looked into this a little more, and turns out voters approved a 1:1 match, then city council “amended” it to a 6:1 match

Elon is right 💯

Elon basically predicted the next revolution in medicine: “You can effectively think of the future of medicine as being digital” Much of traditional drug discovery has involved finding or screening molecules, testing them, and figuring out what they can do Synthetic RNA starts changing that model From discovering drugs by accident → programming treatments like software If we can understand exactly what biological instructions need to be written into RNA, medicine increasingly becomes something we can design for a specific problem And once we know what to program into synthetic RNA: “You can basically, cure almost anything” Medicine is becoming programmable

Grok upgrades

I was the bottleneck. So I made a Grok Bot the boss of my repo. From there it recruited more Grok Bots. All of this with two prompts + pstack. WARNING you will get "AI Psychosis" if you do this workflow.

Not satire

Grok Build puts you in charge of your computer X.ai/build

Much appreciated!

Grok Build just got a new update bringing a first-class workflows catalog, Always and Never allow on permission prompts, a live status line that can refresh on a timer, and faster shutdown of looping tool calls Release Notes: v1.0.7 Features: • Users hitting startup timeouts can now raise the connect budget with the `GROK_CONNECT_UI_TIMEOUT_SECS` environment variable. • Permission prompts now show "Always allow" and "Never allow" options by default. • Users can now delete scheduled background loops directly from the tray. • Status line command scripts can now run on a timer via refresh_interval in config.toml. • Permission prompts now offer a 'Never allow' choice for MCP tools and web-fetch domains that persists per project. • Workflows tab added to the extensions modal (Ctrl+L or /plugins) listing installed workflows with name, source, and description. • New /workflows command opens the Workflows catalog tab; use /workflow runs to view live workflow runs. • Bare /workflow (or /workflow runs) now lists active and recent workflow runs with status and progress instead of usage help. • Workflows row added to the Ctrl+P command palette, opening the Workflows catalog tab. Bug Fixes: • MCP server connections in non-interactive sessions no longer incorrectly require authentication for tokenless servers. • Fixed startup timeouts caused by concurrent auth refreshes across multiple sessions. • Tool call loops are interrupted earlier to avoid wasting time on repeated identical actions. • Subagents no longer receive the ask-user-question tool. • Bare email addresses are now turned into clickable mailto links in the pager.

He committed serious crimes, as did Fauci

Does this change everything?

Yep.

True

100 %

There was no intent There was no motive Chauvin was doing textbook restraint procedures The rest of the officers were restraining accordingly innthe arrest. It was all political theater for the masses.

George Floyd died of an overdose. I agree, Derek Chauvin should be freed.
