I decided to cycle in the heat of Phuket and I wondered why the hell did I decide this? The video is what happened, including a little chat about free will or lack thereof :) PS: I spotted some cool art in this little tour if you are into that ;) youtu.be/pmt_LDdbvno?...

Come study our bilingual sustainable engineering bachelor program. You can learn German alongside. Also: we need you to provide a German A2 level certificate when you apply. Are you for real @tu-braunschweig.de ?

If you want to learn a scientific or engineering field, you need to think in arrows (vectors). I wrote a gentle intro to it. No prereqs required. open.substack.com/pub/quantumq...

Future conscious ais will likely not know what it feels to have a finite duration. They will probably not be shut off and so live very long. So I wrote some words about finiteness for them. As you do 😃 Does rich consciousness require finiteness (death)? ysqander.site/blog/finiten...

There is a before and an after regular use of kettlebells in workouts. Underrated how much you get done with them!

Get the bag and get bought out. The recent NBA rule changes accelerated the resolution of bad contracts because teams can stretch the money owed and fall below the penalty thresholds on total salary. It’s a great league for players!

TIL I learned there are different checkers rules and my Russian mother seems to have taught me American checkers and not Russian checkers 🤷🏻‍♂️

being kind of half Russian (Belarus!), this make me chuckle. Ahh that cold Russian resourcefulness and FU to the rest of the world!

Just ONE more SYSTEM PROMPT, boss. Inspired by XKCD comic ‘Physicists’

In the US, dads often call their son “buddy” Does this happen in your culture too? I find it slightly amusing to not just say son

Street art in Oslo. On a wall of a kindergarten. Lovely

WAOW No one is safe in their job anymore. For context, Horner took a drinks brand (!) to the top of F1 motor racing in two different periods across 20 years. He outcompeted established motor racing giants like Ferrari. Last year his main driver won the championship!! Unbelievable!

I have been using the Claude Code agent which can do longer sequences of programming over last few days. Watching this podcast with an AI safety researcher at the same time is eye opening. https://youtu.be/0QmDcQIvSDc?si=YR7zAiSZKRXQY0rK (Edited 18:05 via @skeetsapp.com)
