@leolaporte.me From your last Intelligent Machines on proving consciousness: Einstein showed the physical measuring of gravity was indistinguishable from being in a closed accelerating container at 1G. Why is determining consciousness any different?

@leolaporte.me Listening to you on Intelligent Machines and you’re 100% right. I thought I had to wait for Claude Cowork to manipulate Office files and that’s false. Claude Code can write python on the fly to read, edit, and create all MSFT Office files right now. Beads adds tracking. It’s amazing.

This has to be the wildest opt-in checkbox I've ever seen
- Made to look like you are agreeing to a privacy policy, when in fact it's a marketing opt-in
- Instead of "by agreeing you optin in" they added two negatives "by NOT agreeing you are opting OUT" to confuse you

@letterboxd.social what are the chances you could add to the filter not just length choices of “short film” or “feature”, but an actually integer so when I have limited time I can pick a movie accordingly? Love the app and I subscribe!

China is going to rush in to fill the void we're leaving behind and undoing this damage will not be easy.
The Trump administration has imposed a steep 50% tariff on Lesotho, a small, impoverished African nation of two million people – the highest tariff levied on any country ⤵️

The move deals a harsh blow to the small, impoverished state, which Trump mocked as a place ‘nobody has heard of’.

He stayed in Kyiv when the invasion began, the world saw him as a courageous hero leading his people against a horrendous aggression. The world is again seeing the underdog stand bravely against aggressive bullies trying to convince him to let Putin just take his peoples’ land from him.

This may be a good time to remind everyone that Trump’s first impeachment was because he was bullying Zelenskyy to investigate Biden in exchange for support. Zelenskyy bravely stayed in Kyiv when it seemed like he could get killed by Putin’s thugs. Does anyone think Trump would behave that way?

Just heard from a friend who is a true hero veteran. His company was destroyed in 30 days by the VA when they canceled 5 contracts without notice. 23 Americans mostly veterans out of work and a veteran owned small business destroyed. For nothing. They're dismantling the VA not "reforming" it.

I get there's a lot of people who want to see gov't corruption get rooted out, borders to be secured, and our country to be free from crime. You know how you can get there really easily? Be like North Korea or Iran.
