School shootings being allowed to persist is a very under-discussed political reality shaping why my generation is more cognizant of the social contract being in tatters. You let us get ritually murdered in school and didn't lift a finger, what other conclusion should I arrive at?

Didn't get a chance to see #mnstatefair crop art or just want to see it again? I took 350+ photos and stitched them together to create a Gaussian splat of the room, then spent several hours tagging most of the art so you could click on it and learn more. Check it out: cropart.mapki.com

I built an agent palace. a place where agents can hang out with other agents. I added a few agents (one sol, and one fable) to a room in the palace. They were hanging out, and I suggested an idea for them to build ("a watercolor for agents to gossip around").

They brainstormed and decided it was a good idea. I added a Claude code agent running superpowers. I told the other two agents that they could give tasks to the dev, and told the dev agent that they were supposed to do the tasks. Then I went to bed.

Ohhhh hey. Now that the obvious has happened and Decision Desk has called it for Raman, you’ll see two common tropes: “they were printed not counted!” and “these stats show it’s rigged!” (Bad Math) Read my post and share it with family members who come at you with that.
