i wish i could do more - i wish i had a thousand hands and a thousand eyes and a thousand years and army of angels and a thousand stars that lit the sky so bright that the night would never come and that our sleepless dreams would fill this world

we're hurtling through the void on top of a ball of lava. the lava has a very thin crust and a tiny bit of ice. the ice is being liquidified by a ball of plasma 94 million miles away as we spin around it at 15 miles a second. it's all so weird but you gotta feel lucky somehow

The Jews went into space (becoming "Space Jews") to build city of Neo-Jerusalem, on the ice moon of Europa, orbiting what would become the Jewish planet: "Planet Jewpiter"

if AI reasoning gets really smart and really slow I'm excited to go back to the original interface for slow asynchronous text: **email**

my favorite jewish prayer as a child was called "Eili, Eili" - my rabbi would sing it with a sad and mellow guitar while walking around the temple and it was the only prayer I ever felt I could really pour my heart into - it was written by a 23 year old Jewish girl who fled…

i remember how much people used to complain about steve jobs, but no one ever mentions that anymore. sometimes complaints persist and sometimes they just immediately fade. i don't understand why.

starting to see ai ventures in terms of capital "scaling laws". LLMs take logarithmic investment for linear returns (ie: 10x investment = increases revenue by 2x), but some field (like robotics) are linear! 10 robots make 10x more revenue and cost < 10x due to factory scaling!
